Xavier’s brow furrowed with sudden concern at the news.
“Taken Ill? That was news to me – he seemed fine when he arrived. How does one just fall ill out of the blue?”
Truth be told, he wasn’t overly worried about Tandy’s well–being. What really irked him was that just seconds ago, he’d promised Noella she’d get to see the man, and now, it seemed as though he’d orchestrated some sort of mishap. It was all too convenient.
Sure enough, Noella gave Xavier a fleeting glance, a sigh escaping her lips as her fingers traced the bracelet on her wrist.
“Is this the kind of friend you are, Xavier? Backing out is one thing, but to pull a stunt like this after agreeing… It’s just pointless.”
Her tone dripped with disdain and mockery, resonating in Xavier’s ears like a gong of
sarcasm.
Oddly enough, Xavier wasn’t the least bit angry. Instead, he slapped Magee on the back. “Spill it. What exactly happened?”
“We just went to fetch Tandy from his cell and found him passed out. He’s been rushed to the infirmary.”
Xavier waved dismissively. “Wake him up. If pain’s what it takes, then do it. Let this young lady have her word with him before he kicks the bucket. Couldn’t he have picked a better time to die? How inconvenient!”
“At once, Sir!”
With a hint of eagerness he hadn’t noticed before, Xavier rubbed his hands together and turned to Noella.
“Look here, young lady, what did you say your name was? I swear this isn’t my doing! You have to believe me! Do you have any more pictures or videos of your grandma? Can you show me?”
