Chapter 155

Daran held Janet in his arms.

When he found that she was staring at him, he quickly dropped her down to the floor

can’t climb the ladder without falling, find something easier to do.” He

Janet pulled herself up from the floor and said, “You asked me to do something challenging.”

“That was because I didn’t know that you are such an idiot.”

Janet frowned.

When she thought that he was worried about her, she had a fleeting gratitude at heart.

Yet that gratitude quickly died out again.

He was a complete jerk. And that was it.

He had never treated her with a horrible attitude even when they were back in

Riverside Pack. Back then, he just ignored her all the time.

Janet had to admit that his cold shoulder was easier to put up with than this moody, petulant version of him.

Where did all his temper come from?

Was it because of jealousy?

The maids rushed over and took the ladder and the bucket of rags away.

Janet promised them that she would be careful this time. But they would not let her climb up and clean the window again.

She was sent to fold the bed sheet and arrange flowers in the vase.

Daran was called to the Counseling Hall in the afternoon.

He warned her dangerously before leaving the room.

“Stay here. Do not wander around. You hear me?” he grabbed her chin and forced her to meet his dark eyes. “If I come back and find that you have left, I might lose control of my temper.”

She stayed in silence stubbornly.

“Say that you have heard me!” he snapped, tightening his grip.

…Yes.” She gritted, irritated.

He stormed out of the room.

The other maids had finished cleaning and left as well. So Janet was all alone by herself without anything to do at the moment.

She picked up the book that Daran read earlier and flipped through a few pages.

Then she paced to the door and placed her hand on the doorknob.

She tried turning the doorknob.

The door was not locked.

Which meant that she could sneak out and go find Morgana, Kass, or even Westin if she wanted to.
