The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

A moment later, he started, “Even though there’s no evidence, we can at least keep our guard up against the suspect. In any case, you all should be more vigilant.”

Shane nodded, “Right, we will be more careful. Thank you for your advice.”

Caleb waved his hand, suddenly suggesting, “Our campsites are quite close. I can call my people over tonight if you have no qualms about it. We can set up camp next to yours. It’s safer for us to stick together.”

Neera met Shane’s gaze and asked, “Is this okay? Would it be too much trouble for you? It’s late, after all.”

Celeb chuckled. “No trouble at all. My men have all perked up after the commotion earlier. Moving to a new campsite is just a small matter.”

With his assurance, Shane dropped the issue and said, “Perfect, I can’t thank you enough.”

Soon, the members of the Medicina family swiftly moved their backpacks and tents over, setting them up next to the Gordon family’s camp. Together, they kept vigil throughout the night.

Neera felt slightly relieved, seeing the number of people increase.

Shane suggested she return to the tent to sleep, but she shook her head. “No, I’ll stay outside.”

She found a large rock to lean against, hugging her knees as she gazed into the dense shadows of the forest ahead.

Shane sighed. “You had quite a scare just now, didn’t you?”

Neera felt a bit embarrassed that he noticed it, but she didn’t hide it from him. “Yes, a little. That’s why I prefer to stay in crowded places. Seeing so many people around makes me feel more at ease.”

Hearing her answer, Shane didn’t try to persuade her further. “All right, then. You should get some sleep since it’s already past one. I won’t disturb you anymore.”
