Chapter 49

The hours passed quickly, and the afternoon arrived. Francesca began to wonder why Miss Emma and Mila hadn't returned yet.

Every now and then, Francesca went to the window and looked outside, checking the street. She was waiting for them.

She lurked in the window so as not to miss their arrival, and when she would see them returning, she would start cleaning the last living room.

The doctor hadn't only remained in words, and he arranged her help from the town. About fifteen years old, a young girl called Aria. Aria was quick in cleaning and efficient, and Francesca was impressed by her abilities.

Fortunately, the cook never left her kitchen, so she didn't notice anything. Anyway, Dr. Mason ensured Francesca would arrange the issue if anything went wrong with the cook.

Finally, the carriage appeared on the road. Francesca moved away from the window and started cleaning the last living room.
