Chapter 82: The Smiling Stranger
’Sir, you can’t get in his car without me! Let me talk to him—’
Matthew tries to stop Noah, but it’s too late—Noah has already started following Lucas Graham, walking toward the vehicle.
’Relax! He won’t hurt me,’ Noah responded, noticing how nervous Matthew had become. ’You can trail his car and ensure Jason doesn’t get out. He can’t show himself before Lucas Graham!’
’What? What do you mean? Did Jason know Lucas Graham?’ Matthew’s voice in Noah’s mind sounds confused.
Noah didn’t answer his question directly; instead, he playfully asked, ’Why does your last name match Lukas Graham’s? Is he your family?’
Matthew’s awkward laugh echoed in Noah’s mind. ’Of course not. Well, it’s just a coincidence... Just like you share the same name with Alice...’
’I know. I’m just trying to make you laugh to help you relax. Matt, trust me... I know what I’m doing!’
’But sir, please be careful! You need to let me know if you need anything. I can hear you even though we’re in different cars.’
’Hmm, sure, I will...’
Noah trusts Zoe and his abilities. As long as Zoe didn’t stop him, he would go along with whatever Lucas wanted from him.
However, they had already been sitting in the car for a few more minutes, and the vehicle finally left the Blue House, but Lucas chose to stay silent.
