wits and hurriedly followed Joseph. After they left, Emily sighed in relief before putting a plaster on
Chloe’s wound.
“Is he a dog? Why did he do this?”
Chloe held her neck with her head lowered. “Stop talking about him.”

here.”

written in her eyes. “M-Mr. Joseph, what do you want? I haven’t done anything.”
“What’s that in your hand?”
“Nothing. It’s just a drink…”
“Okay, go ahead and drink it then.”

“I-I came back for a gathering with my friends.”
