At the same time, Roy, who had been going around, looking for Delilah too, stopped when he saw a maid coming to the backyard works in the royal palace.
He had already looked for her in the royal palace and asked a couple of maids half an hour ago, but none of them were able to help. Delilah was probably not in the palace.
He was called by Jacob, who heard about him going around before he got lectured.
Jacob was right though. If he kept looking for Delilah so openly, sooner or later their boss would find out about it.
What will he say at that time? And what use will all of this trouble remain if their boss finds out everything in the end?
No. It wasn't acceptable. He needed to stay as secretive about it as possible.
"Hey, have you seen Delilah?" Roy asked in a hushed whisper, almost creeping the maid, who nearly jumped in her place.
