Chương 898: Chapter 114: I Want to Help

*Eliza*

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing… Jared wasn’t just listening to Hestia, he was going along with everything she was saying. What was worse, it seemed like he was actually going to do what she said.

He wouldn’t, would he?

I kept trying to catch his gaze, but he would only look at me for short periods of time.

Even when he asked questions about me and my family that could have been out of concern, his voice was flat and emotionless.

I tried to signal him with my eyes, but it was hard to get him to look at me.

What was he doing?

I tried to speak but the gag muffled my words. Jared hardly spared me a glance.

Why wasn’t he looking at me? Why didn’t he understand?

Hestia was asking him to do something insane and dangerous….

“Destroying the bridge won’t be easy,” Hestia drawled. “Had you asked me a few weeks ago, this would be a very different conversation.”

“Well, I’m not cursed anymore. Are you sure it is me you want to help?” Jared asked.
