章 23: Chapter 23: Are You Ready?

“Why do you look so surprised?” Cassandra asked.

I stared at her, wondering how to go about this. Cassandra had obviously struck some type of deal with Miranda. I needed to know what it was to decide what to do.

“I’m not surprised, Cassandra. I’m just wondering what you aim to achieve.”

My heart skipped a beat. I knew that Cassandra was up to something, but I tried to maintain my composure. “And you’re going to tell me what you know?” I raised an eyebrow in skepticism. “Including what happened in 2013?”
