Bloody Weekend
Chapter 26



Inspector Larkspur got up from his chair . She said


"Thank you for your time and information Mr. William Cavendish. We'll report the developments soon."


********


At dinner time they ate half-cooked beef complete with mashed potatoes. After that they ate a cold orange sorbet.


Julia Cavendish sighed and said she hoped their actions would be appropriate by letting Natasha return to London.


"I'm so happy that William is taking her to London. "


William Cavendish has said he is willing to take Natasha back to London.


"I think Natasha's gonna be back here for the police call." Julia Cavendish said while enjoying her cold sorbet.


"But unfortunately, I think he has to deliver this bad news to his son. Maybe their nanny has read the news in the newspaper and has delivered to her child Natasha. But I'm sure William can help Natasha. And I think Natasha's family will come too. He must have one or two brothers or sisters. "


"It's Julia's base." Amy said.


Julia Cavendish looked at her sorbet again it was a pity but she was less pussy . Shawn Cavendish loved good food and grimly looked at his empty plate.


Julia got up and said


"I think everyone wants to go to bed early. And a lot of things happened anyway. After all if we used to only read about things like this in the canonical letter. It's different when we experience it ourselves. Do you know it feels like I've run for tens of kilometers. It was so tiring when I just sat down. But it was exhausting too. Have you ever read The Times ? Or maybe young people prefer to read the Gossip Times ? What do you think of Shawn ?"


Shawn said he had no interest in reading the newspaper.


"But I'm happy to read it. We did buy it for the waiters to read as well. Morris was very attentive. He always let the newspaper down until tea time. To be honest the newspaper was quite interesting news. I read about a woman's corpse that was put in a suitcase and dumped in a swamp. I read once that a baby was killed and put in the oven. A bit cruel actually but quite interesting."


"What will they do if the house uses all-electric equipment? " ask Ryan Cavendish with a smile.


"Maybe they can do it too."


"I don't like homes that use electricity. The increase in electricity rates will be high and the demand for electricity will be a lot."


Ryan quickly said he didn't know much about it. Shawn's back grim. Morris came in carrying a pot of coffee and a cup.


"Ah Morris" said Julia Cavendish. " Regarding the newly arrived egg egg, in fact I intend to write the date myself. Could you please tell Celia to get her to work as usual."


"I'm sure everything's in order, madam. I arranged everything myself."


"Thank you Morris. "


Morris resigned. Julia said


"Morris is really great. I don't know what it would be like if there wasn't him. He can arrange a waiter. And also because the arrival of the police to the i will certainly make some servants worried and anxious. Oh, Amy, honey, is there anything left ?"


"You mean the police ?"


"Yes . It is not usual that they leave one or two police officers. Maybe they're keeping watch on the front intu. Or maybe at the gate ?"


"Why do they have to stand guard at the front door ?"


"Let's not know. It's just that usually in books it always is. There will be others dead tonight."


"Julia don't scare us." Amy said worriedly.


" I'm sorry, Amy. I was a fool to say that. Of course no one else will be killed tonight. I mean because Natasha's back in London. Well, Graciela I'm sorry I didn't say that."


Graciela just shut up. He did not say Julia. He was standing near the table where their card game was last night looking at a piece of paper with numbers written in card games.


Arrived he realized . She said


"Sorry Julia, what did you say ?"


"I guess not. They must've gone all back and written a report on the case."


"What did you see Graciela from earlier ?"


"It's nothing."


Graciela walked towards the fireplace.


"What do you think Karen Clark did tonight ?" Ask her.


Julia Cavendish turned grim.


"Do you think he'll come here ? He must have heard the news."


"Yes" Graciela muttered.


"I think he's heard of that."


"I forgot I had to call Wood's family. I can't invite them to lunch here tomorrow as if nothing happened. "


He came out of the living room.


Shawn who was not very fond of his family from the beginning also chose to go to the library.


Graciela decided to go out for a while. Ryan went after her.


He found Graciela sitting on the terrace looking at the forest.


"The weather is not so bad not ", said Graciela.


Gently Ryan said


"Yes." Yeah."


Graciela looked back at the forest. Ryan wasn't sure what Graciela was thinking. Ryan got up and said


"We'd better get back."


Graciela shook her head. She said


" no. I'd like to take a short walk to the rest house. "


"Let me company." Said Ryan.


"Thank you Ryan. But I want to be alone. I infin myself and look at my lover.," Graciela subtly refused.


"Graciela my dear. I understand ... but you also know that I'm sad about this."


"Sad ? Saddened by the death of Peter Hamilton?"


His voice turned sharp.


"That's not what I mean. I mean what happened to you. I know that kejafian must have hit you a lot."


"Hit ? You don't have to worry, dear Ryan. I'm strong I'm not in shock at all. I guess when Peter Hamilton died you looked happy huh ?"


"Me and him are not covetous." Ryan Cavendish.


"Why aren't you being honest ? You both like me the same. But it's actually getting you guys away."


Ryan was shocked to see the change in Graciela's face. To be honest in her memory Graciela is a carefree girl full of laughter when she gets to know her first in Logdewood. But what was now before him was a cold woman with sharp eyes and a hostile attitude.
