Chapter 147

"What do you mean?"

Prof had his forehead knotted at Beverly's revelation, trying to figure out the possible hidden meaning behind those words. Chess also tilted his head in interest.

"It is as I've said. The mistress is being detained by Mr. Aaron Hilt." Beverly answered with all honesty.

This time, Prof rested his chin on his palm as he examined Beverly. His eyes were like a pair of lenses ready to capture any mistake he sees.

Beverly tensed but remained her composure.

"And how are you so sure about that?" Prof asked, weighing the truth of Beverly's words.

Chess quietly watched by the side, observing both Prof and Beverly's movements. While doing so, he also started thinking about the certainty of Beverly's words.
