Chapitre 177: Chapter 177: Under Arrest

**Ellis POV

I paced the hallway, resisting the urge to hit something. The control I showed in most situations was carefully built up over years.

There were times I worried about Ken and his potential impulse control. Then again his mother was so patient and gentle, except when truly riled, it could be her genetics that might win out.

I went to the door again, just to see if I could hear what was being said. The wood was too thick and all I could hear was muffled hums.

“You know you could just go in right? You’re on the list.”

Spinning on my heel, resisting the urge to yell in fright, I saw Nurse Anderson with a food tray.

“I can’t actually.”

“Why? Is the door locked?” she asked, testing the knob.

“Yes, but that is not the biggest problem.”

“Oh, how so?” Nurse Anderson asked.

“It was locked from the inside,” I said.

“Yes, that is how it works.”

“By someone else, on purpose I mean.”

“Who?”

“Some Fed, I think he said his name was Smiley.”
