Capítulo 36: Chapter Thirty-Four

“What do you care?” She said, without looking up at him. “I’m sure you can’t wait for the day this is all over so you can be rid of me.”

“That’s highly unlikely. C’mon, tell me about it.”

“So you see, that I was right and that we need to leave .”

She turned to face him and shot him daggers through her eyes,

He shook his head.
