NovelOnlineAmara knew Elysia well enough to not press the issue. She just joked around a bit, and the two of them started
heading out.
Since Elysia had been drinking, Amara planned to drop her off at hbefore heading back herself.
But as they were making their way to the underground parking garage, three unwelcfaces appeared:
Finnian, Dorian, and Jessica.
Finnian and Dorian walked side by side at the front, with Jessica slightly behind, sticking close to Dorian.
Seeing them, Elysia's expression turned icy, her gaze sharp. Amara frowned as well.
"Let's take a different route, Ely," Amara muttered under her breath, thinking "just our luck," as she grabbed
Elysia's arm, ready to turn around.
Elysia frowned. "Why should we change our path? They're the ones who should move."
Even though she said that, she didn't resist Amara pulling her along.
Amara sighed, "You see a rabid dog on the road, you don't stick around to reason with it, right? You just walk
away."
Elysia chuckled at the analogy, her irritation fading in an instant.

Amara frowned. "Mr. Everly, what are you doing?"

stopped behind a large pillar.
Seeing the red mark on her wrist, Finnian felt a pang of guilt and admiration for her delicate skin. "Sorry, it's
nothing," he said.
If it was nothing, why had he approached her? Amara wasn't amused.
Her feelings towards Finnian were complicated. Despite the pain he'd caused her, he'd also saved her life twice.
However, her feelings towards Dorian and Jessica were pure resentment. Seeing them together with Finnian only
made her more distant.
Finnian seemed to understand why she was acting this way. In a low voice he explained, "Jessica's a translator
for the Everly Group. We were just taking her along for business talks today." s
He wanted to clear up any misunderstanding. The three of them were just working together, nothing more.
