Chapter 273-Into The Woods
Helanie:
It was awkward finishing dinner after that. We all ate silently, and sadly, Kaye could barely swallow his food. I did notice something, though. Norman would never let anyone hurt or speak badly to his brothers whenever he was around. Maybe he wasn’t entirely wrong when he claimed he loved his brothers.
I left for my room as soon as dinner was over. In fact, I was the first to leave because I didn’t want another awkward situation to arise. Once in my room, I sat on my bed with my phone in hand.
I had been texting Lamar nonstop and wondered if he had spoken with Jenny after their meeting today.
Lamar: They’ve made a plan. They want us to join them tomorrow night to put it into action.
I frowned because I had no idea how I would leave the mansion for an entire night. The brothers would never allow it, and it wasn’t like I could sneak out with so many warriors stationed around the mansion.
Me: How am I supposed to leave?
Lamar: Talk to Lord McQuoid. Tell him you’re going to stay at a hotel or Jenny’s cabin. Say it’s a friend’s gathering.
He was right. That idea might actually work because teens always had those kinds of gatherings.
