689 Chapter 688

Erin had been waiting outside for who knows how long. Judging by the number of pistachio shells in the trash can beside her, she had been there for quite some time.

She had even dragged a chair from somewhere and parked it right there, sitting comfortably like she was waiting for something to happen.

When Keira spotted her, she immediately frowned and exchanged a quick look with Lewis.

Their mission tonight was to head to the border—a dangerous operation to help Barry Brandt return home. It was crucial that everything went smoothly, with no unnecessary complications.

Erin was unpredictable. One moment, she was cheerful and agreeable; the next, she was impossible to read. Keira couldn't afford to bring someone like that along, not with stakes this high.

But Erin just got up from her chair, completely unbothered, and chirped, "Let's go! I'm all set!"

She patted the small backpack she had slung over her shoulder.

"What exactly are you 'set' with?" Keira asked suspiciously.

They were traveling light, carrying only what was necessary for the mission.

Erin, without the slightest hint of shame, replied, "Pistachios, of course! It's a long drive to the border, right? Gotta have snacks, or it'll be so boring!"

Keira stared at her, trying to keep her patience. "Erin, you know I'm not taking you with us."

Erin grinned mischievously. "Then I'll just let the other South family heirs know what you're up to!"
