Chapter 247: Secure Meeting
Rory took in a deep breath standing in front of the big metallic door in front of her. Beyond this door, she will be alone, with Lennon.
She took in a deep breath rubbing her hands together. She has researched enough. She’s learned about psychopaths a lot and the reports from the doctors who have talked to Lennon. Although she thought that she prepared well, she knew there is a possibility that everything goes wrong.
It’s not some scripted interview and she’s not meeting an enemy she had a fallout with. She’s meeting a notorious psychopathic killer who was planning on killing her and almost ruined her.
Not to mention, if she says something wrong during this meeting, Lennon’s defense will use that to save him. The entire conversation will be recorded. That’s the condition both the defense and prosecution had agreed upon to make this meeting happen.
She needs to be careful.
"I’ll be right outside listening to you. If you don’t want to continue at any point, just say the safe word. Remember, you’re not alone," Liam rubbed Rory’s back.
Yeah, she won’t be alone!
Rory leaned on his shoulder. "Safe word?" she raised her brows. "What’s the safe word?"
"Oh!" Liam looked at her with his eyes and mouth wide open. "Did you forget already? That night I~ Ah!"
Rory pinched his waist as hard as she could. This guy! Was he serious when he wanted those stupid phrases to be the safe word?
Liam pulled her into a hug and kissed her cheek. " I know you can handle this. But walk out the moment you feel like you can’t handle it. Either way, know that I love you the most."
Rory nodded. "He’ll bring up your mother’s death. He knows we are trying to hide it from dad," she whispered. Lennon’s full objective now is to hurt the Roberts family. He will do everything possible, to the extent of admitting to killing Liam’s mother.
