Chapter 74, Who's The Mole (Book 2)

~Devin~

Susan fell asleep a few hours after she woke up.

The doctor that checked up on her said she would be safe to transport to the Mountain the next day.She had recovered faster than anticipated, and I was thankful for it.

It was good news because I had so much to do.

Arresting Alice and finding out all she knew was part of it.

I planned to take Susan back to Mountain, then travel to Greenville with Max and arrest Alice.

If I returned to Greenville with Susan, Alice would know her game was up, and she would flee.I could not have that.I planned on setting a trap for her to fall in so it wouldn't be her words against Susan's.I also did not trust her relationship with Lukman and planned to expose her.I sat on the couch Alia sent to Susan's hospital room and watched Susan sleep.

She looked peaceful, and I prayed our lives would be that peaceful.

I hated that her first reaction to the conflict was to run, but she ended up uncovering something crucial.I was grateful to the goddess for her, and I hoped that once everything was over, we would have a blissful life together.

Someone knocked on the door, and I didn't bother looking towards it because I knew it was Alexei.I could smell him.I fought the urge to roll my eyes and just nodded for him to enter.

He walked in quietly and came to sit beside me.I shifted a bit because I was in the middle of the three-sitter couch.

"Heard you two are leaving tomorrow," he said, and I nodded.

"That is great news.Honestly, I was worried when I heard what had happened.Glad you found her on time," he said, and I sighed because he was right.

I knew he wanted to tell me something but did not know if this was the right time.
