Bab 160: An Unanticipated Problem

Nora's anxiety gnawed at her from the safety of her secluded spot, hidden away from the prying eyes on the tarmac. She paced back and forth, her steps uneven, like the erratic beat of her heart. The plan, fraught with risk, weighed heavily on her mind.

In the dimly lit waiting room, she nervously adjusted the collar of her coat, her fingers fumbling with the fabric. She glanced at her watch, its hands seemingly frozen in time. Where was Demetri. The last two days, his presence had been her anchor, the one steady element in the chaos of this entire operation.

He was supposed to have arrived here to get her the moment Sara and that man had boarded the plane. From the update she had received, Arabelle and Grandfather Frost had already boarded the plane. Could there be a problem with the plan. Had Arabelle lied about the plan. Maybe the entire thing had been Lara Anderson's set-up.
