Ella furrowed her brows slightly. Eric was right—her proximity to Lucas was enough to keep the Miller family at bay. They wouldn't dare make a move against her.
Yet the inexplicable sense of dread that gnawed at her made her desperate to leave.
"I just want to leave right now!" Ella said, pouting slightly. "Eric, please, book us a flight right away! I don't want to stay here anymore!"
Seeing the urgency in Ella's eyes, Eric sighed in resignation. "Alright, I'll have someone book our tickets immediately. Let's see if we can get on a flight in the next two hours."
Eric stepped aside to make the call, and as Ella watched him, the tension in her chest eased slightly.
It wasn't long before Eric returned with good news. He'd managed to secure two canceled tickets for a flight leaving in an hour.
