Chapter 87 Everyone's Growth Is Forced

I felt my stomach churn, slapped a hand over my mouth, and bolted outta there.

Bella was right behind me, giving my back a few pats.

I leaned against the wall, puking my guts out until there was nothing left.

Ethan handed me a bottle of water. I took it, rinsed my mouth, and finally felt a bit human again.

Once I was back to normal, he asked, "Where to next?"
