Chapter 236

Chapter 236 For the first time , the ever innocent and wide eyed Elsie wore an expression of hesitation .

She held on to Noelles sleeve , her gaze filled with something far deeper than her usual dazed curiosity uncertainty , conflict , and a strange intensity that refused to fade , Whats wrong .

Elsie Noelle asked , puzzled .

Ekie opened her mouth and tried to say something .

But the words that came out were incomprehensible .

Noelle frowned , scratching her head .

Elsie .

I cant understand what youre saying She turned to Adriel for help , but he shook his head slightly .

Truth be told , most of of the time he was just guessing at what Elie meant from context Her usual ya ya babble wasnt exactly translatable .

Elsie ! Adriel knelt a little , trying to meet her gaze .

What is i Elvie opened her mouth again , trying harder this time , but her words still came out warped , like her brain was tripping over its own wiring .

From the drivers seat came a voice .

Anderson , this frit a good place to stop .

Should we go ? Elsie , well talk later Noelle said gently , prying Elsies small hands from her sleeve .

I need to go meet my friend right now .

Ill come back to you later , okay ? And with that , she darted away down the sidewalk , disappearing in the blink of an eye .

Elsie instinctively reached out as if to chase her , but Noelle was already gone .

Adriel watched her .

Did you ant to go with her ? Elsie shook her head .

It wasnt that she wanted to follow Noelle it was that voice on the phone .

The one that called Noelle .

It sounded … familiar .

Unsettlingly familiar .

And then her mind shattered .

Like someone had flipped a switch , vivid images began to flood her brain . Cold blue eyes eyes just like hers stared back at her from within her memory Detached , merciless , devoid of warmth .
