Chapter 33: Friends Help Each Other
Three days passed and she had not heard anything from Caden. She kept on asking Phoenix and the others, but they still had the same answer—to wait for Caden.
She realized that their loyalty was to Caden. She was just a job for them. She needed protection and they had no choice but to accept the mission for them.
She couldn’t concentrate in school, and even at home, she was restless. She wanted to tell her brother, but she couldn’t betray Caden’s trust.
She knew the only place she could get an answer was from that place—Club Royale. She wasn’t sure if she could get in, but she would do everything to find out what was happening. She’s so tired of waiting and she had enough of being left alone without knowing anything.
She asked Rogue to meet her in the washroom. She had to be careful because all eyes were on her. Caden told her that the Trekker Clan had made some movements by recruiting some students from the bronze class. Her bodyguards were closely guarding her and the only place they wouldn’t dare to enter was the girl’s washroom.
"Rogue, I need you to take me to Club Royale." She said.
Rogue was surprised. "W—What? I can’t. The boss will kill me."
She took a deep breath, held Rogue’s shoulders and stared into her eyes.
"If you don’t take me, I’ll go by myself. If something happened to me, it’s your fault. One way or another, you’ll be punished. But your punishment will be different depending on your decision." She said in a firm tone.
She didn’t want to pressure Rogue. But if she decides to bring her to Club Royale, she would just get a light punishment but if Rogue let her go alone and something happened to her, she would be severely punished.
