When everyone finished eating dinner, Espen suggested, "Let's go talk in the living room."
Cillian objected, "No, let's talk at home."
Confused, they got in the car and drove to the house in the garden. Once they were all sitting down, Camila asked, "What's going on?"
Cillian responded, "Before I tell you, I need you all to promise me something."
Lucas, who was sitting next to him, asked, "What?"
Cillian explained, "No matter what I say, you'll follow my plan and listen to me."
Espen frowned, "I'm not going to agree to anything until I know what it's regarding."
Camila intervened, "I promise we'll follow your plan."
Espen looked discontented, but Camila met his eyes and added, "Cillian is smart. He wouldn't do anything that might endanger his life."
Espen sighed and looked at Cillian, "I promise too."
