A Snake In The Grass

Vincent stole a glance at Emily, who was sitting next to him, as he parked his car, "you, are you sure you're alright?"

He had driven her to the Manchester's Residence in his car, after he watched her cry her eyes out in front of him, under the bus she'd.

Emily nodded her head, "Uhm."

He smiled, "Okay."

He took her phone from her hand and typed in some things before he handed the phone back to her.

"Bye," he waved.

Emily twitched her lips as she stepped out of the car, thanking Vincent repeatedly. She waved at him and walked up the driveway.

Joel's body went stiff as he gaped at the CCTV monitor. He gnashed his teeth as he watched Emily wave at the guy in the car—he didn't see the guy's face though.

He stood on his feet and walked out of his study. He strolled down the corridor and placed his hands on the banister, watching as Emily dragged her feet to her room—she forgot she switched rooms.

A few seconds later, she was climbing up the stairs.
