How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue
Chapter 810
The call still wouldn't go through.

Watts met Elodie's eyes, then glanced at the phone in her hand. "No luck? Maybe most of the networks are down. Try again in a while."

Watts checked his watch. "Are you hungry? I'll have them bring you something to eat."
He stood up. "Just stay calm for now. You're a long way from home, and not everyone here is trustworthy. But while you're with me, you're safe. I promise."
The words had the effect of a sedative, meant to settle her nerves.
Elodie remained silent.
