Bab 310: Dr. August

Emilia had to pull her away since they were getting on her nerves.

"What if this is a trap for Nathaniel?" Maya dared to ask. "What if we're making the wrong choice and I should have let Nathaniel send most of his people here because this was the major play that Xander and Jay were planning?"
