Belle Adams' Butler

Chapter 207

Belle didn"t know how to react because the maids didn"t know who exactly Barron was but they still knew he was a creature who didn"t belong in this world. How did Barron even get himself into situations like this? Lucas used to call her trouble when she was a little girl, she wondered if it was safe to call him as the disastrous rabbit. 

Either he would let people know of his presence by getting caught, or break anything and everything around him. She pursed her lips and looked at the rabbit who was trying to struggle to get away from the nails. Her eyes then turned to Lucas in worry of what to do. Lucas appeared to be holding on to the last thread that was about to snap any moment when it came to having patience with Barron. 

From the above floor, Belle, Lucas and Barron heard the Sixth Grim laugh loudly, "You all are going to be busted for keeping a collection of Grim"s as you said," though Belle and Lucas didn"t react to it, Barron couldn"t stop himself from responding back.

"Shut up you!" and the maids took a step back from where they stood at the sudden outburst of Barron shouting. 

One of the maids appeared next to Belle, to say, "Miss Belle, the demon speaks of our language but also keeps shouting and yelling at the ceiling," this little rabbit instead of keeping quiet was making it worse and worse with every second that pa.s.sed. 

Lucas had reached his wit"s end along with Belle. With Barron"s personality, it would be hard to hide him away unless one would throw him in the trunk, lock it and then throw it in a sea such that it would sink at the bottom of the sea. 

"Felicity, go close the door," ordered Lucas to the maid who stood next to Belle. All the servants in the mansion had a look of worry as they didn"t know how to deal with the demon. They had pulled out some of the nails that were present in the kitchen to nail the rabbit and it had taken a toll on everyone to do it. 

"What are we going to do?" asked Belle in a quiet voice only for Lucas to hear. There was no way they could tell that this rabbit would be exorcised again as it was already done in the past and Belle didn"t want to throw Mr. Fluffs into the fire. 

Lucas squeezed her hand, "Let me take care of it." Hearing the main doors of the mansion close and locked, Lucas then said, "There is something your mistress and I want to tell you. What you are going to listen here today will determine if you trust Miss Belle enough."

Lucas went to the wall, removing the nails that were pushed into the surface of the wall that kept Barron as a hostage. 

The servants looked utterly confused and worried that the butler was freeing the demon, who quickly slipped down and went to stand behind Belle"s leg for protection. 

Belle could feel a sheen of sweat form at the back of her neck and she was worried because she knew what Lucas was going to do. But this could either be accepted or it could backfire so badly that they would lose the servants who were working in the mansion here. Not to forget there would be no turning back from here. 


With Barron clinging to her leg as if the maids would throw him into the fire made it difficult for Belle to move. She sighed, "Lucas is right, there is something I want to tell all of you and I would appreciate it if you would keep it a secret. This little person here, the rabbit I mean, his name is Barron," she informed them, "It is true that he is a wandering soul but he is harmless."

"Wait, what about me being the fourth-" Lucas had taken the privilege to mute Barron this time so that he wouldn"t damage the already out of hand situation they had here. 

"This world is divided into two parts, one for the living and one for the dead. You don"t have to fear the dead because once we die we become part of it," said Lucas looking at the servants who were quiet, "Barron is a soul who wasn"t able to pa.s.s away from this world and is stuck here," Belle remembered Lucas giving her the same reason when she had first found out about Barron. 

Belle nodded her head in agreement, "He is just a harmless wandering soul who is residing in Mr. Fluffs body."

"Miss Belle we saw him going to the orchard tree, no demon goes there to climb the trees like that. This is notorious one," reasoned one of the maids, "You need to exorcise the doll so that it can pa.s.s through to go where it needs to go..."

"If exorcising was possible then there wouldn"t be actual spirits and demons who have taken to live in people"s homes and their bodies. If Barron was evil, he could have possessed anyone"s body but he decided to pick a toy," explained Lucas, "We have already called the priest once, a second time is not going to make any difference.

"Barron has nowhere to go and he is alone. Like me," added Belle, her eyes looking at each and every single servant in the room. 

"Is he forever going to reside in the doll?" asked one of the maid. 

"This is just temporary until he finds a way to go," answered Belle. 

"He is a ghost!" exclaimed another maid and hearing this, Barron jumped away from Belle"s leg and was ready to leap forward to be caught by Lucas. 

"This rabbit has quite some temper and is a troublemaker. Also, we hope that not a single word goes out of this mansion unless you have decided to be his playmate. Let"s all get along," said Lucas with a polite and cold smile on his lips that the servants couldn"t dare to react to. 

They had a ghost in the house and they had to get along with it?! thought the servants in panic.
