Chapter 74

He was driving smoothly, and I was trying my best not to make a sound, but he still knew.

I stayed in the house and looked outside the window, good, Vernon was talking to Adonis. Would he take Adonis with him? He didn't want to take me but he would take Adonis?

Oh good, he shook his head.

I wanted to wait for them to finish talking but I thought he might see me if I did, so I just hurried and went to the truck. I opened the backseat and climbed in, hiding beneath so he couldn't see me when he approached the truck.

When he got into the car he didn't start driving immediately, he took a look around. My heart was literally in my throat because I was afraid he would find out. But luckily he only checked to see if the car was tampered with. He didn't think to look for the back seat. Once the car started driving, I knew I was successful.
