Sylvia's POV:

When I heard what Layla said, I was shocked. I didn't expect Ashley would betray me. After all, it was Hobson and his children who had caused her so much suffering.

I nodded and decided to let it go, too. "You're right. Since Ashley has chosen to run, she'll probably go back to the castle. That means I've fulfilled my end of the bargain with her mother. I doubt we'll cross paths again. Let's think about how to get out of here now."
