Chapter 86

At that moment, Yelena was red in the face. She would be lying if she said she wasn’t embarrassed when her thoughts were exposed.

On the other hand, Hex had already forgotten his flirtatious attempts toward Elspeth and got familiar with her after talking for some time. “Alright, now, let’s go back. What about you, Elspeth? Do you want to join us?”

“No, thanks. You guys have fun,” said Elspeth.

Hearing her words, Hex pouted and walked away.

On the other hand, Yelena patted Elspeth on the shoulder while looking at her calm expression. “I know you must feel terrible after you went through such a thing. Don’t worry, Elspeth. The truth will soon be revealed, and you will be proven innocent.”

“I know.”

“Well, since I have snuck out and don’t feel like sitting with them, why don’t you accompany me? We can have some small talk over there.” After Yelena finished speaking, she looked at Elspeth expectantly.

“Oh, me?” Yelena recalled the memory from her past. “To be honest, my first encounter with Max wasn’t when he saved me. I have known him for a long time before that.”
