Mrs. Abbie (アビー, Abī) is the housekeeper of Heathfield Manor.

Character Outline

Abbie is a bespectacled elderly woman with slightly wavy, pinned-up black hair.

Abbie is a prim and proper individual who enforces the rules and maintains order. She does not take kindly to those who shirk their responsibilities.

History

The group wearing black hoods that Abbie escorts.

After Jane was hired and paid by Chris Heathfield to guard Heathfield Manor, Abbie showed Jane the basement, within which several maids were having their blood drawn. Every now and then, Abbie escorted a group wearing black hoods to the basement late at night. Moreover, she, along with the house steward, smuggled the collected blood out the manor by concealing them in tradespeople's goods.

Plot

Blue Revenge Arc

In late 1889, Abbie interviews Mey and Ran who have come to Heathfield Manor to become maids. After asking them about their background and whether or not they can read, Abbie hires them both and orders Jane to guide them to their room.

When Chris Heathfield returns to the manor, Abbie informs him that they have hired four new maids: Mey-Rin, Ran-Mao, Miranda, and Annie. Afterward, she reminds her chatty maids not to neglect their duties and to pay close attention to their cuffs and collars as they get easily and visibly dirty.

Jane holds a gun to Mrs. Abbie's neck.

The next day, Abbie has the maids attend the morning gathering, where, once again, Chris studies them.

One night, Abbie, the house steward, and the other maids, much to their consternation, are awakened by a rumble caused by the allegedly dismissed maids emerging from the basement in droves.

Abbie attempts to dissuade the maids from calling Scotland Yard, but Jane threatens her with a gun, telling her that Chris's search for an ideal bride has now ended. While Mey-Rin and Ran-Mao detain the house steward, Abbie labels Jane a traitor. The latter retorts that she was never told not to betray her employer. Later, Scotland Yard takes Chris into custody.
