Chapter Fifteen

“And here comes her highness.” I heard Elias say immediately I walked into the hideout.

I chuckled, nervously and said,

“I was packed up on homework and I forgot about the time. I'm sorry.”

“Really? Homework took your time?” Dean asked.

“Yes. There's this school project that I am working on. It needs an extra per of eyes and so, I have to be extra careful with it.” I said.

“If that extra per of eyes is still needed, don't forget to call me. I'll be available anytime.” he said.

I rolled my eyes at him and said,

“Yeah, yeah. I'll let you know.”

“Lea...” Elias called me.

I turned towards him and said,

“Yes, boss.”

“You talk a lot.” he said suddenly.

Everyone, including me, stared at him. It was an out of topic thing to say and I didn't know how to reply to him.

“Eh, thank you.” I said.

“Are you working with your twin?” he asked.

My breath caught in my throat and I struggled to swallow the saliva filling up in my mouth.
