Chapter 450: Darkness is Pain
"Let's go there." Caleb Mamet said.
Xaviera Evans nodded and followed Caleb inside. The deeper they went, the more her heart sank. The courtyard of Madam Mamet's residence was already secluded enough, but Caleb's yard was even further in and more desolate, not at all like a place where people lived.
Although Caleb was known as an illegitimate child, he was Will Mamet's only son when he returned to the Mamet family. Even if Will didn't like this son, Caleb's yard shouldn't have been built in such a desolate place.
This should be the northernmost courtyard of the Mamet Old Mansion, and it seemed that no one had ever cleaned it up. There were two bare trees at the entrance, and the ground was covered with fallen leaves. There was no maple tree like they had imagined.
Xaviera looked up to see a two-story building in front of her, and even though she wasn't an architect, she could see the strangeness of the building. It was a grey and dull color, like an unfinished roughcast house.
