Noah walked toward the gate. The guards stationed at the entrance noticed him immediately.
Surprise flashed across their faces before they bowed respectfully and opened the massive iron gates.
"Welcome back, Young Master Noah."
Noah nodded politely and stepped inside the estate.
His blue eyes wandered across the familiar surroundings.
The elegant gardens were as immaculate as ever, colorful flowers blooming beneath the warm morning sun while stone pathways stretched toward the grand manor standing proudly at the center of the estate.
He walked through the entrance and into the spacious main hall.
The interior was just as luxurious as he remembered.
Polished marble floors reflected the light pouring in through the tall windows.
Expensive paintings decorated the walls, while crystal chandeliers hung from the high ceiling.
He looked around curiously.
'Where is everyone?'
Just then, slow footsteps echoed through the hall.
