章節 145: Welfare check

Anaisa fretted as she came close to the house where Katia had been staying. How was she going to convince that snobby butler to tell her anything about her sister today? She looked… well, not fantastic. And very stressed.

The door opened, and Anaisa rushed to get out the words before it could slam in her face.

"Are Katia and Jin still staying here?" She asked desperately. It had been weeks since the ball. Katia had hoped to leave back to the farm the next day, but Barnabas's note to Trace said he had arranged an extension of the stay. Perhaps that had been a bluff? 

Anaisa couldn't leave until she knew her sister wasn't at the very doorstep of his evil plots.
