“Got it.”

The moment the car sped off, Ben let out a sigh of relief. He then muttered, “Lupine was staring at us when we were going down the stairs earlier. That was frightening.”

Zachary was calm, for he was sure that Charlotte had not figured anything out yet; he was confident in his acting skills.
