Part 2 -
It was the middle of the morning when Walter arrived at the Rothschild family home.
He walked up to the door and knocked, and was received by a young girl in a maid's uniform.
The girl was pretty and red-haired, and she gave Walter a shy little smile when she saw him.
"It's a pleasure, m'lord, but I'm afraid His Grace the Earl is away," she said apologetically, in an Irish accent.
Walter smiled his winning smile.
"Don't worry, ma'am. I am here to court his niece, the lady Isabella."
The maid smiled. "If that is the case, m'lord, please follow me. I shall take you to her."
Walter followed the maid, his eyes watching her rear as she climbed the stairs inf front of him.
She was pretty and shy, and older than his "lady love" - about 16, his own age.
He wondered if Isabella was the gullible sort - if so, he could get up to all sort of fun with the sweet little Irish maid.
He was pulled from his fantasies when the reached a door.
The maid bowed and pointed to the door.
"This is her room, m'lord. If you need me, I shall be next door."
Before she left, he caught her hand and smiled at her. "What is your name, sweetling?"
The girl smiled that shy smile. "Anna, if it please you."
Walter smiled. "I believe we'll be seeing a lot of each other, Anna. Farewell for now."
The maid rushed off, blushing furiously, as Walter knocked on the door.
