The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 114

Chapter 114

The old timers had been on pins and needles, eager to bust out of the hospital, when suddenly they were stood up!

Being stood up is one thing, but when they heard Palmer ducked out to escort Noella back to her childhood home, the old coots were surprisingly understanding. They just told him to keep it safe and swing by the next day.

Bottom line, they didn’t want to get discharged by themselves. They were dead set on waiting for Noella to pick them up.

Hearing Palmer relay the old guys‘ nagging, Noella couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.

Whether it was the elders or the Schnabel family, everyone genuinely had her back!

Palmer and Noella’s phones buzzed simultaneously.

Beckett’s roar blasted from Palmer’s phone, “Palmer! Where the heck did you take my sister? Aren’t you guys coming home tonight?”

“Chill, Beckett. Noella and I are over at Verdant Garden. Didn’t you pen the sign yourself?”

Beckett’s face flushed, clearly caught off guard that Palmer had seen right through his little scheme.

While it might have seemed excessive to display it in a Glen Village homestead, the fact that it was his sister’s home, filled with memories of her past, warmed Beckett’s heart.

“Hmph, so what if I did? You planning on camping out at Verdant Garden tonight instead of coming back?”

“We’re staying the night.”

Beckett hung up in a huff and tried calling Noella, only to find her line busy.

Elara, eyes glued to her lab data, issued a warning. “Noella, don’t let that blockhead pull one over on you. If he tries anything funny in the dead of night, you make sure he sings soprano!”
