Chapter 30

Avery

Preparing the food had taken hours and the time the food finished cooking fit nicely into everybody’s evening schedules.

I looked out of the small window that was present in the kitchen.

The sun was already on its way back home.

I gave Diana the food I had specially separated.

I indicated Sika’s food.

“If anybody eats this food instead of Sika, the person should be ready to deal with the consequences.” I warned Diana and she nodded with a complicated expression on her face.

She should have gotten the gist of the whole matter. My words had made it very clear that something was wrong with Sika’s food.

She left the kitchen after she received their portion of food.

I let Diana leave because I didn’t need them here anymore.

Aside for the help Diana and her friends gave me, I wanted them to be here in the kitchen so they could confuse the prying sights of these cooks.

Now, I have successfully poisoned the food. I didn’t need to stress them out anymore.

The cooks began taking the food in portions to their respective owners.

I watched them go.

I did not disturb them as they took the food to the people in the mansion and I did not stop them when they delivered food to the girls in the outer area.

However, I had to make a move when they began delivering food to the guards watching the gate.

I wanted to know the placement of the guards and how to reach the main entrance and gate.

I stopped the first cook I could grab.

“Let me help you.” I requested but the cook shook his head like a rattle drum.

“Don’t worry, you are not stressing me. I can’t just slack off because I was the one to cook the meal.” I explained before taking a few things off his tray.

I followed him as he went to give the guards their food.

As we walked, I imprinted every hallway and path we passed into my memory. I was going to use the directions very soon.

We turned entered an hallway that would lead us to the main entrance.

Fredo was there at the entrance.

He was leaning on the wall.

“Why did I have a feeling that I would see you if I stayed here?” Fredo asked as he fixed his eyes on me.
