Chapter 42: How Did You Do It?

Evian nodded.

"Larnak played it to me when I spoke to him. Right before he tried to capture me."

The Resistance had maids and servants as informants in the Estate but none of those had been inside the room when Evian met Larnak so they didn't know the contents of the meetings. They only knew Evian went there, escaped, and currently had Herbert Larnak fuming.

"Wow, he kept it?" Carleine said with eyes wide in surprise, "I was sure he would have crushed it in anger."

Gryon nodded.

"Me too."

Evian looked over at Ember who was peering hard at the plans on the table.

"How involved is your father with all this?" he asked.

Ember raised her head and then shrugged.

"He knows enough but keeps well away. Reputation of his business and whatnot."

There was something about her tone that indicated she was not totally on board with her Father's attitude towards the Resistance but her face remained so neutral that Evian was not sure if he was reading too much into it.
