CHAPTER 101

  The story of Susannah 3

  “Oh, um… her name is Susannah, she’s a visitor who just arrived this evening so I offered her shelter for the night since she won’t be able to travel any further until the morning comes. She’s looking for someone who lives in Bandaria, I was hoping you would help her because you know everyone in this place better than I do.”

  Harem hung his jacket on the stand and went to Susannah, taking a seat in front of her while his eyes scrutinized her sharply.

  “I see… and Susannah, might I know where you are from and who exactly you are looking for?”

  “Umm…. I’m from one of the neighboring towns Sir.”

  He squinted his eyes. “Which of them?”

  “Umm. … I … um…”

  Susannah looked back and forth between Gwen and Harem, she definitely didn’t prepare for this, oh, what would she say now? Gwen quickly cut in much to her relief.

  “Oh, stop it Uncle Harem! Can’t you see that you’re frightening the poor little girl???”
