She shook Levi as he falls asleep from hours of their trip. Truth is, Madison drove the car at such a speed; the five hours traveling by ordinary car is just a short distance for her.

She made fun of Levi by telling him of having a Gecko code name. She laughs harder while he was scowling at her, that was just a lousy joke.

Levi's real code name is BlueJay; a bird that commits for a lifetime.

"Levi wakes up we're here! Hey, come on—" she was shaking his shoulder.

"Carlene!" he cried out, then his eyes opened. Madison stared at him with wide eyes. 

Does he have a dream from the past? Levi thought then notice he was holding her hand. "Tell me, are you the reincarnation of Carlisle and Marivella's daughter? Am I right?" Levi asked. 

Madison drops her mouth open; she doesn't know how to answer him. She stayed silent and did not give any answer.

"Alright, I will just presume that I got the answer," he said. 

Madison averted her gaze. "Then ask someone who could answer everything you wanted to know," she told him then step out of the car. 

Levi follows her until they reach the third floor of this chateau by elevator. He realized that his Uncle Edward loved to come often as he won't struggle to climb the other floor of the mansion.

"Wait here—" Madison told him, then she knocked on the door before she entered the study room.

"Lady Isabella, he's here now." She announced. Madison saw the lady seated on a single couch.

"Am glad you had a safe trip, Madison. Let him come in," the lady requested. Madison bowed then went to the door. She peeps and calls Levi. "Hey, you can come in now."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"Miss Girlfriend, have you forgotten my name? Am not hey," Levi complains that made Madison dumbfounded by his childish complaints.

"Alright, whatever! Just come on, Lady Isabella is waiting!"

"Wait, you can call my code name, as well?" he said. 'Purple Lily to BlueJay, Red b.u.t.terfly summons you.'

Her mouth opens from his acting. She doesn't know whether to laugh or knock him on the head. "Stop playing! This is not a kid's game!"

"Tsk, tsk... I just wanted to see you smile. You look tense, did you know that?"

Madison sighed then leans on the door. "Who's tense here?" she pouted. "Okay, fine! Just come on now!" She pulled him on the arm to get inside Isabella's Study Room.

"Milady," Madison elbowed and glare at Levi then gestured at him to show respects to the lady.

"Greetings, milady. Please, to meet you, Lady Isabella," he said while bowing at her.

Isabella is wearing her usual red clothing and a purple hat on her head. She places down her teacup then looks up. "h.e.l.lo, Master Montfort," she greeted him back.

Levi surprised because she looks like someone he knew. "You are—"

"Please, have a seat, Master Montfort." Isabella gestured the empty sofa across her. "Madison, I want to talk with him alone. Can I request you to leave us, for now?"

Hesitant but she has no reason to insist; to hear whatever they have to talk about. "Milady. Please excuse me," Madison said and bowed, then leave the room.

Levi still looking at Isabella with wonder. He was looking at a little older Blaire on her 40…

"How are you, Charles?"

Levi doesn't know what to reply to the lady. Before coming here, there are so many things running inside his brain to ask her. Now, nothing would like to register inside his head. Is he like hypnotize? No. The lady's presence must intimidate him.

"I wanted to understand what is happening here, milady."

"You should be... and before anything else, please accept my condolences to your family."

Levi could see the sadness on Isabella's eyes. "Thank you, milady. I am honored. I meet you."

"Then, I am flattered..."

"Uncle Edward living alone—" Levi paused then sighed. Isabella listened, so he continued. "Because he is devoted to love only one woman."

"How loyal of him then…"

"I know the woman he loves was you, Lady Isabella," Levi peered at the lady, observing her reaction.

"Please, I did not allow you to meet me to talk about this thing. You were here to take the role since it was empty. Now that you were aware of my presence, and who I am to some people dear to us; you must understand why I cannot attend your Uncle Edward's funeral, then show up to everyone."

"Don't worry milady, I understand. If I have to base the book, I a.s.sume that everything is real. You were living in this world for almost 300 years old already."

Bitter smile tore her lips. Isabella could see the amazement on Levi's eyes. "However, there is no fun at all; living that long."

"Hmm... because you have to witness how the people dear to you come and go."

"That is true."

"Then it's lonely than being awesome."

"Yes."

"Okay, then... I will behave and listen to whatever you want me to know."

"I am glad to hear that, you were always the Charles that I know."

"Could I take that as a compliment?"

"You should be," she smiled.

Levi chuckled. Now he feels more relax because he has been tense since he steps inside in this chateau. He was just trying to joke around at Madison earlier. But he wishes that she was her; he will be more at ease.

"Alright then, let us begin. I allow you to meet me sooner, not only because of your role as part of The Pillars; but because you are one of The Keeper."

He gives a confusing look at Isabella, but he continued listening to the lady.

"I know you were curious about what is The Keeper," Isabella presumed. 

"The Keepers are those who remained the memories from a past life. Not only that; also the important event in history remains on their memories." Isabella began. 

"Then? Those dreams? It can be that happens in the past?"

"If you are having those, then yes."

"Okay. I have a question, this is about the lovers in the book."

"Are they brother Quinn and Ca.s.sie? The couple in that old photo restored digitally, milady?"
