章節 97: Chapter 97

They left the chamber, closing the door behind them. The guards outside appeared bewildered at the day's sudden change of events. When they came to Sabyn's chamber down the corridor, Yakov went straight in and had a seat at the table in the lounge area.

Sabyn shot him a curious look and joined him.

After a moment's pause Yakov began.

'What I'm about to tell you is to remain secret until Elena, herself, announces otherwise. Understand?'

Sabyn stiffened, regarding Yakov with apprehension then with a sigh, nodded, and shifted a little closer.
