Chapter 22

“Rent a car?”

Everyone turned to look at Phylls.

Bblythe voiced his disagreement, “Renting a car is too expensive”

“It’s not that pricey, actually. The hotel arranged it for us. We’re guests, so they gave us a discount.” It was clear that Phyllis had picked up this money–saving tip from Eileen, to rent cars directly through the hotel.

It’s only twelve bucks, including pick–up and drop–off”

Was twelve dollars not expensive?

After dinner, Bblythe whispered to Eileen, “How much would it cost if we took a bus instead?”

Eileen replied, “Two dollars”

Bblythe was even more heartbroken. But since they had already agreed to let Phyllis be the leader, there was no going back.

The next day was generally harmonious, except for the fact that Phyllis gave extra attention to Kenley, which made the others a bit uncomfortable. However, considering that Kenley was indeed injured, no one said anything.

Back at the hotel in the evening, they had to pay for the next day’s room.

Bblythe accompanied Phyllis to make the payment.

When they got to the front desk, Phyllis went through her pockets, but couldn’t find any money.

“What’s wrong?” Bblythe asked.

Phyllis looked upset. “I might have left it in the room, Bblythe, could you wait here for a bit?” She then dashed off upstairs.

After taking a shower, Eileen came out to find Phyllis turning the room upside down. She asked with a stern face, “What are you doing?”
