Chapter 61
Nolan shuffled off to the bathroom, leaving Remillia to order room service for Nolan. Once he was gone, Remillia let out a deep breath and sat down on the couch.
When Nolan emerged from the bathroom, refreshed and clean, Remillia turned to him with a stern expression.
"You’re going to stay here until tomorrow. The trial will be held on Sunday." she said firmly.
"We can’t have you drawing attention to yourself in public. Arkus will know since his trial is near, he will destroy every evidence."
Nolan nodded gratefully.
"Thank you, Remillia. I won’t forget this favor. I’ll pay you back soon."
Remillia’s expression softened slightly. "Just stay safe and don’t try to do anything reckless until then," she said. "And remember, I didn’t do this for free. You owe me one."
Nolan’s eyes lit up with understanding. "I won’t forget," he promised. "And I’ll make sure to pay you back... eventually."
Remillia raised an eyebrow. "Eventually?"
Nolan chuckled wryly. "Yeah, well... I don’t have much money on me right now. But I’ll find a way to pay you back eventually."
Remillia knew that once Arkus is in jail, Nolan can finally be free from the outside world, he can work as a mercenary or anything.
