Moments later, Alger arrived at Manfred's room. He glanced around, pinched his fingers together in a contemplative gesture, and raised his eyebrows.
"The side room—Mr. Atkinson has been visiting it frequently these past two days. Could the female ghost be there?" Kemp suggested.
Alger maintained an enigmatic expression. "Let's take a look."
Vivian had originally been preparing to sleep, but for some reason, she couldn't settle down. Her mind was filled with images of copper mirrors of all shapes and designs.
Unable to fall asleep, she stared at the ceiling.
At that moment, the door to her room suddenly opened.
She immediately sat up. Could it be Manfred?
"Mr. Marshman, wait a moment. Let me light the lamp," Kemp said as he strode into the room. With practiced ease, he lit the candles, instantly illuminating the space.
The scene inside the room came into view—a space elegantly decorated and clearly a woman's quarters.
Looking around, Kemp felt his scalp tingle. The female ghost must be here.
"Mr. Marshman, please come in."
The next moment, Alger stepped inside.
Vivian observed the scene before her, blinking in surprise. What was going on? She quietly watched the two men.
"The female ghost should be in this room. Whenever Mr. Atkinson enters here, he talks to himself," Kemp explained.
Now, watching the old man perform his ritual, a sudden inspiration struck her.
Before long, Alger opened his eyes and scanned the room once more. His expression turned pensive.
Kemp, growing impatient, finally asked, "So, is there a female ghost here or not?"
"There are no ghosts in this household, let alone a female ghost. I also examined Manfred's fate. He's destined to remain alone. Forget a female ghost—even an evil spirit wouldn't dare come within half a step of him," Alger declared.
Kemp's eyes widened in shock. "Destined to remain alone? What does that mean?"
"It means your lord is destined to live a life of solitude," Alger explained bluntly. "He will never marry or have children. Anyone who becomes truly involved with him is doomed to perish."

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
