Chapter 134 I Was Wrong

In the entire city, who wasn’t aware of the Lockhart family’s terrifying wealth and power?

Josiah had dozed off without realizing it and woke to find Madelyn still sound asleep. He walked over to wake her up.

Not holding back, Josiah pushed her awake. “Hey, lazy pig, get up.”

“Who are you calling a pig?” Madelyn shot back, finally waking up and glaring at Josiah.

Josiah couldn’t help but laugh. Instead of arguing, he looked at the sky and said, “It is morning. We can probably head back now.”

Madelyn nodded and used the wall to help herself stand up, only to grimace in pain. “Ow, ow, ow!”

Madelyn nodded. “I think so.”
