264 The Confession

Hazel left the room with teary eyes. She sat with the kids for a long time until Lucian told her that it was time to leave yet she felt like she had not spent enough time with them.

They all were so brave to face their fears. She had explained to them well what they needed to say and told them how to reply to the questions and what they could be asked.

She was proud of how they had understood everything and performed well when she had asked questions to them. She felt like a great burn would be lifted if the kids would get enough money as compensation to keep their mouths shut while she would show the drama to the council.

"Do you think they have received my letter?" she asked in a soft voice when Lucian shook his head.

"It is difficult. You should ask lord Rafael for help. He would be able to invite them on such short notice." she turned silent.
