CHAPTER 121

  "Make sure to smile!" Nadia declared and waved me off for dinner.

  Climbing down, I went through my plan in my head, hoping by Goddess it worked. That weasel now saw me as an enemy. What chances do I have that she would want anything to do with me?

  I was quiet during dinner irrespective of my heart thudding against my rib, praying that Theresa doesn't pick on me.

  After dinner, Theresa left and I relaxed, followed by Paisley. I waited for another five minutes and excused myself from the table, paying blind eyes to the close scrutiny from Alonso.

  I climbed the rungs two at a time, my pulse quickening. That girl is mad in the head and can do anything shabby when provoked. The last time I saw her angry proved that. If anything goes wrong, I would be suspected and fished out. The laugh would be on me.

  I knocked on her door gently and held my breath.
