Chapter 214. Striring Trouble

Ellie's POV

"Thank you," I say to Damian as we saunter inside my room.

He has been of so much help today, including going through the trouble of bringing me home. "It Is nothing. Please lie down and try not to worry,” Damian speaks as he guides me to bed.

I know what he anticipates. That I will lie down as if nothing happened, close my eyes,of and get swallowed by sleep. But how on earth can I do that?

I sit on the bed. "After what Gracia did back there, and her threats, can you honestly tell me that I have nothing to worry about? That all is well? My dad just died, and they organized his funeral in just a flicker?" I retort, curbing my apprehensions and refusing to sit on this bed.

"Maybe they wanted to intimidate you back there. Maybe..."

"The charade, maybe. But how did they plan all that in minutes when in fact they weren't even there to know my father passed away? I find all that so strange." I ask.
