“Jabez.”
I looked behind me and saw Dristan. Looks like his meeting with that old hag is over.
“What do you want?” I asked.
I’m so upset about how he let Mrs. Wilson insult us face to face. They are so heartless, killing an innocent baby just because it’s mother is a mistress?
“I’m sorry,” he said.
I looked at him with a frown. “Sorry? I don’t understand you anymore, Dristan. How did you become like this?” I asked. “You told me before we started all of this, that we will only accept the job if they are being reasonable. There is no reason to kill an innocent child!”
“I know, I’m sorry for what I have said earlier. I shouldn’t have accepted the job, but I got greedy.”
I sighed. “What are you doing here? What happened to your meeting with Mrs. Wilson?”
“I refuse her and I will never answer any of her requests. Also, I choose you over her,” he said while looking at me.
