Chapter 589 - Change The Water (1)

When Donna came out with Emily, it was completely dark. The female attendant carried a red lantern and hung it on the door. Then she turned back to close the door.

Just as the three of them were about to head back, they saw the next door open. Several people were walking in and out with a bucket of water in their hands.

Emily looked in curiously and saw a group of people pouring water into a lotus pond in the courtyard. Clark and Tyson of course remembered Emily. When they came out with an empty bucket, Clark said to Emily, "Our young master feels that the water in the pond is dirty, so he asked us to change the water."

He was just complaining, not trying to talk to Emily. If Emily hadn't fallen into the pond, they might not have needed to change the water. Although there was no shortage of water, it was far away to carry the water. It took them much strength and time. Because it was hot in the day, they waited until the afternoon to clean up the water in the pond. They not only had to put the lotus flowers into another basin intact, but also had to wipe them one by one to ensure that every petal was clean.

After all, they two transferred from the Elder. They seldom did such hard work. Now, they spent the entire afternoon carrying water, pouring water, and fetching water. When they saw the culprit, Emily, how could they keep silent?

Tyson could, but Clark could not.

Emily nodded, but she was confused. Clark was talking while looking at her as if he was expecting her to say something.

She looked back in confusion.

Clark was about to leave. But he stopped when he saw her innocent eyes. He asked doubtfully, "Miss Emily, you didn't forget that, did you?"

Emily looked at him blankly.

"You came out of the pond last night. You forget it?" Clark pointed at the pond.

Donna was stunned for a moment, turned to Emily and asked, "You fell into the pond last night? No wonder the clothes you changed today are wrinkled. Did you get cold last night?"

Emily was still at a loss, "Fell into the pond? I ... I don't remember."

Clark was lost for words.

Tyson, "..."

Kason heard them, so he asked, "Who is at the door?"

Tyson responded, "The guests that the patriarch personally treats."

That was right.

If he said that the person standing at the door was the girl who had hidden in the pond last night, Mr. Kason's reputation would have been affected. Moreover, Mr. Kason was not a fool. If he found out who was the one to spread the news, Tyson would be the first to be punished.

Although he and Clark were both chosen by the Elder, Tyson knew very well that the Elder could never be the patriarch. However, Mr. Kason had the chance to be the patriarch. The patriarch Pablo was young, but maybe someday he would no longer be in that position. And Mr. Baron definitely could not be the patriarch. According to the Goddess, Kason was the future savior of the tribe. It was very likely that Kason would be the next patriarch.

Although he was the Elder's man, he still had to find a way out for himself. If he did his best to Mr. Kason, maybe Mr. Kason would give him a chance and keep him.

This was Tyson's thoughts. He was more meticulous than Clark. In just a few seconds, he thought so many things.

The sound of a wheelchair moving could be heard. A moment later, Kason pushed the wheelchair to the door. When he saw them standing at the door, he frowned slightly, "Why are you standing there?"

Clark and Tyson quickly lowered their heads and left with their buckets.

Emily sneaked a glance at Kason and found that he was looking out of the courtyard. It was already dark, and the red lantern was illuminating the square inch of the entrance. Not far away, a figure slowly walked over. It was the masked man whom she had seen during the day.

Emily couldn't help approaching Donna, nervously grabbing her sleeve. Then she secretly looked back at him.

When the masked man arrived, he only bowed, then got upright and left.

Emily was still curiously staring at his back.

Kason in the wheelchair, raised his chin slightly, frowned and said, "We couldn't entertain you as it's already late." After that, he pushed his wheelchair into the room.

Donna felt that Kason was cold. She didn't know how he used to get along with Emily. Then, she thought that neither of them remembered each other now. She didn't know if it was good or bad.

Thinking of this, she tilted her head to look at Emily and found that Emily was staring at Kason's back.

Donna asked, "What's the matter?"

"No. Nothing." Emily shook her head.

Just looking at Karon's back, Emily felt as if she had dreamed of this scene before. But she couldn't tell when she had the dream. She just felt that the person in the dream shouldn't be sitting in the wheelchair, but ... standing upright.

When the two of them walked back, they saw the door of the High Priest's courtyard open. The male attendant with one arm hanging walked out. Donna pulled Emily and stopped her from looking around. Emily nodded, but she noticed that the attendant paused at the place where the masked man had stopped. After that, he returned to the courtyard.

Emily tilted her head and thought that these people were so strange.

A howl of a wolf came from not far away. That was like a call. Other wolves scrambled to howl. The howls appeared especially horrifying in the dark night.

Emily was so scared that she immediately got close to Donna. She shivered and asked, "Mom, what ... is this sound?"

Tom led the way and said, "Don't be afraid. It is a husky."

Donna, who was about to explain, pursed her lips when she heard Tom.

Emily widened her eyes, "Husky? Shouldn't it be a dog barking? This voice sounds a bit like..."

A wolf.

But she didn't dare to say it, just staying close to Donna and walking forward quickly.
