Chapter 59 Don't Play With Me

• When Adelaide returns to her room, one of the maids tells her that Egil has returned from the office and sends for her. She reluctantly gets up from her chair and walks to her husband's room. Didn't he say he would be in the office all day? Now she is worried that someone else saw her in the basement and told Egil. That would be her end, as Mrs. Irene said.
• "Husband," she nods towards him as the guards allow her in, "did you send for me?"
• The young woman's heart beats desperately. With her husband's impassive face, she rarely manages to decipher if he is angry or calm.
