But readity had thrown her plans out the window .

se room game The worst part ? Noelle seemed genuinely excited about this ridiculous escape room .

Unwilling to be outdone .

Leia plastered on a bright smile and chimed in .

No problem Il stick with you and protect you , Connor offered gallantly .

Leia flashed him a sweet smile before glancing expectantly at Harley .

Harley , lets do our best together ! Harley spared her a brief glance .

Of course Harley smirked coolly , How many people have completed it since Ive been gone ! Not many probably fewer than five .

But last year , some genius cleared it in 37 minutes , setting the fastest record ever Not even an hour ? Harley raised a brow , genuinely impressed He glanced at Noelle , his expression turning competitive .
