Chapter 280: Home in Molave 26

Jane froze at the woman's sudden soured expression while she stood still for a moment, staring at her necklace. Before any of the two of them could get back to their senses, Hayri stepped in.

"Rona?' Hayri's voice drew her out from her statued position.

"I'm sorry," Rona's eyes widened abruptly, guilty for her reaction, but she was quick to smile again, "I just remember something in the past."

Jane was sure there was something in the smile as Rona pulled up a deep breath afterward, followed by a quick close of her eyes. Rona caught them staring at her in a bewildered looks, and she laughed. "Where did I stop? Oh," she paused and tapped her forehead with her two fingers, "Jane, I'm happy to see you. This friend of mine got me worried, really."

"Rona, please sit down. You're confusing Jane." Hayri then passed a look at Jane and when he saw it that she indeed wore a puzzled expression, he released her hand and wrapped her close to him in one arm.
