Chapter 123: Accused
Chapter Hundred-Twenty-Three – Accused
Things had been moving fast since they got into Valkyrie’s quarters. The grand hall’s key hadn’t been seen yet and worse, a strange rumor started going around.
Laurel squeezed the cloth and placed it on Marino’s head. The change of environment had made him sick.
Matt agreed for the twins to live with her while he remained in the store and keep apprenticing.
Laurel thought he almost sounded relieved to have someone else take care of his siblings. He was just thirteen, after all, raising little children will be hard.
"I don’t even know how to raise anyone but this will be fun." Laurel smiled, patting the sleepy boy.
She noticed some girls gossiping, about the rumor again. According to some, the grand hall had an underground basement where some people hid during the raid.
It’s also said that since the grand hall is locked, those people became trapped inside and died and their spirits dominated the grand hall.
In other words, no one wanted to open the grand hall because it could be haunted. "Nonsense." Laurel said. The moment she finds the key, the hall will be opened.
If they were really people there, shouldn’t they hurriedly rescue them since the pack was safe?
Were the people of Green Valleys cowards through and through? "Princess! Princess!!"
Laurel squinted her eyes, looking at the direction of the voice. Lia ran to her, panting heavily. She looked up and stood straight.
