CHAPTER 84
Joanna, overjoyed, hurriedly asked, "Well, where is it? Hurry up and bring it to me!"
The young maid looked fearful and stammered, "M–ma'am, your suitcase was in the basement. It's… well, it's best if you see for yourself!"
"What? In the basement?" Joanna parroted, caught between laughter and tears at the revelation.
They had exerted so much effort to search the entire villa, yet they overlooked where it would most likely be.
How absurd was that?
However, judging from the maid's expression, Joanna didn't think things were that simple. Heading downstairs, she went to the basement.
Ace frowned, and he followed the woman silently.
The Moran villa basement was two floors below the ground floor, led by long, winding spiral stairs. Having mainly served as a refuge during the catastrophe of the Great War, the airflow could have been better, and the place was dark. Usually, no one would come down here.
