Feeling the need for some alcohol after experiencing all the emotions, Lucifer walked down the stairs while looking for someone from the staff.


    Though it seemed everyone had gone to their own quarters to rest, which were on the other side of the manor, separated from the main building by arge courtyard.


    So, Lucifer thought of going there to call one of the staff for his drink. But he stopped in his tracks after hearing some sounds from the dining hall.


    ''Is there still someone awake?'' Lucifer thought to himself while moving in that direction and peeking inside.


    It was Head Maid Jane, who was mumbling something to herself while adjusting utensils on the dining table.


    Lucifer couldn''t help but admire the way she looked. Even though she was just in a maid''s outfit, she managed to make it look beautiful with her graceful movements. Her raven-ck hair was tied into a bun at the back of her head, showcasing her perfect facial features.


    As she moved around the room, she noticed him standing there watching her. For a second, their eyes locked, and Lucifer could see a hint of surprise in them. But just as quickly, she seemed to regain herposure and gave him a small smile.


    "Oh, you scared me, Mr. Reynolds. I thought you already went to sleep. Did you need something?"


    "Yes, I was just going to ask for some whiskey, but it seemed everyone was already sleeping. So I thought about getting it myself before seeing you here," Lucifer replied with a smile as he stepped inside the dining hall.


    "Oh, that won''t do. You are our guest, and it''s my duty to take care of your needs. Please don''t bother yourself with such petty tasks while you are staying here," Jane replied with a professional look on her face and a hint of a smile. "I will bring your drink in a minute, so please wait for me."


    "Thank you," Lucifer said, watching her go out of the room.


    After a few moments, Jane returned, carrying a silver tray with an expensive bottle of whiskey, an ice bucket, a tong, one ss, and a coaster. She ced the tray carefully on the dining table before picking up each item with elegance and grace.


    First, she took the coaster and put it on the table, then she gently twisted open the bottle cap of the whiskey bottle. With her delicate fingers, she grabbed the ice tong and ced a couple of cubes in the ss before pouring the amber liquid over them. The sound of ice clinking against ss filled the air, along with the scent of fine alcohol.


    Soon, the drink was ready, and she carefully ced it in front of him.


    Lucifer couldn''t help but feel like he was watching something special unfold in front of his eyes, even though she was just cing a coaster, opening the bottle, and filling the ss with ice and whiskey.


    There was something elegant in every movement she made, and it captivated him.


    "Enjoy your drink, Mr. Reynolds," Jane said to Lucifer before taking a step back.


    "Are you going somewhere? Please join me for a drink," Lucifer said, picking up his ss and looking at her. "Let''s celebrate my decision of buying this property."


    Jane didn''t seem to want to say yes to that invitation and replied in a reluctant tone, "I would love to join you, sir, but I shouldn''t. I don''t think it will look right if others see us here alone, drinkingte at night."


    Lucifer chuckled at her reply. "Hmm... why don''t we head to the theater room then? There will be no one there, and we can enjoy our drinks while watching a movie on that big screen. I don''t think I can sleep anytime soon, so havingpany would be nice."


    "Still, I don''t think it is approp—"


    "C''mon, Jane... You don''t have to be so uptight around me. I don''t bite." Lucifer smiled, trying to convince her. "Just rx for once, and let''s have some fun together. No need to act all professional even at this time of the night."


    "I can''t..."


    "Okay, then. I will just go alone to watch something." Lucifer took a sip of his drink before grabbing the whiskey bottle and heading towards the theater room.


    Jane looked at him with a hesitant expression, not knowing what to do next.


    In her mind, she was weighing the consequences of joining him against the trouble she could get in if someone saw them together like that.


    Finally, after a moment of internal debate, she made up her mind. Taking the ice bucket, she followed behind him.


    "Wait! Please let me have that." She reached for the whiskey bottle once she caught up with Lucifer.


    Lucifer just chuckled at that and kept on walking ahead.


    It wasn''t long before the two entered therge theater room, which hadfortable recliner beds lined up neatly on a carpeted floor.


    A projector hung from the ceiling, projecting arge screen onto one of the walls. On either side of the room were rows of speakers that provided surround sound for watching movies.


    Lucifer chose a recliner bed at the back and gestured for Jane to bring a tablet that had all the controls. There were various controls for everything on the tablet, from selecting a movie to y to adjusting the lighting in the room.


    After checking everything on the tablet, Jane pressed a button to turn off the lights, leaving only the dim light from the projector screen illuminating the room.


    "Thank you," Lucifer said, taking another sip of his drink. "Now,e here and join me for a movie."


    Jane hesitated for a moment but then sat down beside him on the recliner bed.


    "What should we watch? I am in a mood for some horror," Lucifer asked, looking at her with a mischievous smile on his lips. "What do you say?"


    Jane shook her head, seeming scared at the thought. "Please don''t! I can''t handle any horror movies, Mr. Reynolds. They scare me so much that they give me nightmares for days after I watch them."
