    She's chasing murders, not making tea.

    "Tch," the man who was standing outside the house said with a grimace before clicking his tongue. "There is not a single ounce of ladylike manners or etiquette in her."

    "How did the case end up in a woman's hand?" No wonder they hadn't solved the case yet! He sighed in frustration.

    "AHHHHHH!!" The young woman's scream pierced the wintry air as they beheld the lifeless body sprawled above the bridge's arch, blood continuing to trickle from its wounds and falling on the pure white snow below.

    "I am very interested." There was a quiet yearning in her voice. "But I can't." This was an opportunity that she knew was rare and was something her heart soared at. But not everyone was fortunate enough to follow their dreams.

    "You're a fraud," her inner voice taunted, chipping away at her confidence.

    That was fast.

    "I'm afraid I must decline," he responded, his tone nonchalant. "Perdón. But actresses aren't quite my cup of tea," and he left.

    Clean the bathroom?

    Because the first time the person prepared a meal, he didn't want to know what other things the person would or could do.

    "That's fine. You don't have to do that," and don't you have a job? Sylvester asked in his mind. He didn't want anyone to keep an eye on him or his house. There had been times when he had caught the Gardner with muddy hands and muddy shoes during night.

    "My kitchen is restocked," Sylvester replied, a little worried.

    What the fu...?!

    Sylvester walked to the kitchen he had left this morning. His eyes fell on three broken eggshells, a messy counter with evidence of an onion cut for an omelette as the pan was left on the stove.

    And sleep!

    The waitress approached their table with a charming and polite smile. She took the orders, starting with Elizabeth, then Lady Delilah, and when it was Sylvester's turn, he ordered no more than a salad as he lacked an appetite.

    "Let's finish up the rest after lunch," Sylvester instructed the two workers. Stepping off the stage, he made his way to the front hall and found his mother surrounded by a few of her admirers. Once they dispersed, his mother walked over to where he stood and planted a kiss on his cheek.

    One more person watching him.

    "I will let her know when I meet her." It wasn't the first time Sylvester was bombarded with information about his famous mother. "Have a good day, Ms. Brooks." And as he stepped out of the building and through the door, he couldn't help but look back, noticing her standing there watching him.

    "Stop playing the damn music so loud, or you know…" Grumpy warned. The next second, the door shut loudly.

    Thirty minutes later, Sylvester had dressed and prepared a simple breakfast—a comforting cup of coffee. He glanced around his furnished apartment, where it had been four years since he had moved into the neighbourhood of Hootenanny Avenue. When it was time, he made sure to lock the windows and clean the dishes before grabbing the house keys.

    "I should get some sleep tonight," Sylvester murmured, a daily promise he struggled to keep.
