Chapter 803 Elusive

"Master Lucas, Mr. Rookie likes being alone. Could you please arrange two separate rooms for us?" Juey requested, casting a glance at Rocky.

"Well, that's not a problem. Miss Juey, do you have feelings for Mr. Rookie?" Lucas had observed how intimate Rocky and Juey were. He even thought they were a couple.

"Master Lucas, you misunderstood. Mr. Rookie treats me like his sister." Juey's cheeks flushed a deep shade of red.

"Is that so? That's a pity. You two could have made a perfect couple," Lucas remarked with a smile.

Juey felt her face heat up as Rocky stood calmly.

Later that day, Lucas requested two rooms in the remote wing house for Rocky and Juey. A servant led them to their respective rooms. As soon as they were settled, Lucas asked someone to inform Lucilla of Rocky's arrival.

Rocky and Juey followed the servant who directed them to their rooms in the Osmanthus Yard, which was clean and quiet. The smell of osmanthus filled the yard. No one else was there.

"Juey, I have something to deal with later. Will you be alright here alone?" Rocky asked Juey before they separated into their own rooms.

"This is the Cao mansion. Do you think anyone will hurt me here?" Juey joked with a smile.

Rocky nodded and walked into his room.

A few moments later, Rocky left the mansion. He was planning to ask if Woods was in the royal palace or another mansion so he could begin his quest to find him. From what he had gathered, Woods had his own mansion in the capital.

Rocky went to Woods' mansion and snuck in through the back door. When he saw a servant coming out of the exit, he flashed a smile.

Then, he walked up towards the servant and started intimidating him with questions. Eventually, the servant gave him what he wanted. He said that Woods had been ordered to go to the flooded cities

th to happen again.

'Alston, I hope you wait for me. We will meet again soon and I'll make sure you know what it's like to lose everything.' Rocky gazed at the sky with clenched fist.

When he returned to the Cao mansion, he went straight to the Osmanthus Yard to find Juey. But as soon he entered the yard, a beautiful lady holding an osmanthus flower stole his attention. She gently sniffed the flower as she stood.

Rocky looked at her face carefully. He guessed that she was in her late twenties. She stood with poise and elegance, her body curved in all the right places. She had breasts that perked up and a bottom that arched her back beautifully. Her manner and poise made it obvious that she was from a noble family. She had a deep frown on her face, as if in deep thought.

She wasn't the most beautiful lady Rocky had met, yet something about her took his breath away. She looked gentle, yet strong and proud, like a peony flower.

"Who's there?" Lucilla felt a presence behind her. She turned to look and saw a man in plain clothes standing by the gate. He looked like an ordinary man. When she looked at his face, she noticed firmness and sharpness in his eyes. Something about him made him elusive.
