TRUTH TO TELL
"How did you know I received a message?" Daerin stared at her with a bit of suspension in his eyes.
Graceilla's eyes widened. She opened her mouth like she was about to say anything, but hesitated. But no, the truth is she didn't know what to say. She did have a backup reason from Daerin's question that could be her escape hole. She was trapped.
Her expression and her being speechless were quite obvious to Daerin. However, he didn't have the energy to go through it all. He would rather have some alone time and think.
He could feel something was not right and he should not judge things by what he felt. Since it was contradicting what had been shown to him.
He simply passed across Graceilla as he went out of the library and went straight to his bed, with shoes and coat on, he lay on his bed and stared at the ceiling as if he could find the answer there.
