However, she couldn't shake the feeling that this wasn't the end of it.
Glancing back at Gary, she found he had already averted his gaze, lowered his head, and walked away.
It was evident he didn't want to continue the conversation.
Perhaps he should have spoken his mind earlier.
Gary departed with a complex expression.
His thoughts were spinning in a whirlwind. He didn't like Adams, and he resented the fact that the Tribe Chief favored Adams. Every time Adams was around, the Tribe Chief seemed to make decisions that harmed the clansmen and even herself. Adams treated the Tribe Chief poorly, constantly teasing her.
The Tribe Chief appeared to have forgotten about Adams entirely. She had no intention of mentioning him again, and Gary didn't want to disrupt the current peace. This was the best outcome.
Although Gary felt a twinge of worry, he also felt a sense of relief.
