Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Serving Sylvia

Ellie

River’s assessment kept circling in Ellie’s mind as she got ready for dinner. Only a few moments after meeting Sylvia, he’d already determined that she was lying about being a Luna. How did he know that already?

Perhaps her husband was being too judgmental. After all, he tended to be pretty skeptical of most people. That wasn’t a bad thing most of the time. There was a sucker born every minute, but River wasn’t one of them.

Still, as Ellie slipped her earrings in, she thought it wasn’t fair to jump to conclusions so quickly. They should at least give Sylvia a day or two to prove whether or not she was who she said she was.

That didn’t mean they had to trust her. But they could be nice and try to help her.

“Are you ready?” River said, coming out of the bathroom. “Wow--you look hot!”

Ellie turned and looked at him, rolling her eyes. “You’re ridiculous.”

“No, I’m serious. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you in that dress before.”
