章節 125: Lion's Den ( III )

Patting her down, Lumielle's eyes hardened as she turned back to Cosette. Viria was grinning widely at her. It all made sense now. The maid that was stationed by Cosette was Viria.

Thus, Lumielle had figured she was living a calm life under the radar. Dripping with tea, she tried to control her expression. Her face was stony. An emotionless look. Jax would be hearing from her.
