Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 509

Hannah immediately pressed me for an answer, "Do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?"

I pondered for a moment, then shook my head, "Only as a last resort. We can't use it unless absolutely

necessary."

Hannah eyed me skeptically, trying to guess what I was thinking.

Our gazes locked for a second before I broke the silence, "Let's go with your plan for now. Since we've

already set the trap for her, we might as well wait."

Hannah was getting impatient, "But Fidelia's got to go back soon. School's starting up again."

I reassured her with confidence, "If they've got mischief in mind, they won't be able to let go that easily.

Maybe going back now is the pressure they need. Keep a close eye on Fidelia for the next couple of

days. Maybe they'll try to make her do something else. We just need to be ready. You set someone to

keep a close watch on the surveillance, and I think we need to keep an eye on the backyard, too. I'm

not about to give them the stage for their drama."

At that, Hannah’s eyes lit up, and she flashed a mischievous grin, "Aaliyah, you've got it all wrong. If

they want to play games, why not let them do it right under our watchful eyes?"

I looked at her sharply, and after a moment, I couldn't help but smile, "Spot on."

"I'll get someone on it. Find the right time to spruce up the backyard.” Hannah said with a devious

smile.

"Let's do it tomorrow. I'll come up with a reason," I said, as we struck a perfect chord, "After that, all we This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

can do is wait."

"You're right. So, let’s wait."

After dinner, on a whim, I took Monique, Probert, Fidelia, and Hannah to the backyard.

Hannah glanced at the bamboo leaf that had been wedged in the door, but it was gone.

This meant that those folks had been back here last night or today.

Hannah and I exchanged knowing looks. It seemed these people were planning to squat here.

Without showing my concern, I checked upstairs and downstairs again. Monique, acting every bit the

lady of the house, followed me and after a full inspection, she remarked, "Why does someone seem to

have lived here? How did they get in?"

I nodded in mock approval, "You're spot on, sweetheart. It does look like we've had visitors."

"We should call the cops. This is breaking." Monique declared indignantly, her spirit undeniably fiery.

"The trespassers are long gone. What good would calling the cops do now? Better we start taking

some preventative measures," Probert chimed in with his own opinion.

"What kind of measures?" I asked, playing along.

"Install some surveillance cameras. Then we'll see everything they're up to. Once we catch them on

camera, they'll be easy to nab. Then we'll find out why they came to our place."

I turned to Fidelia, "What do you think, Fidelia? Speak your mind."

She avoided my gaze, hesitant to speak up.

Before she could respond, Monique jumped in with her quick tongue, "I'm very suspicious. How did

they even know this place was empty?"

"Could it be the tourists?" Hannah suggested, teasing the idea.

"I doubt it. Tourists wouldn't dare to trespass like this. Besides, the door's always been locked, and

normal folks can't just wander in. Good people don't sneak around breaking into places. It has to be the

work of someone up to no good." Probert said with an air of certainty.

Honestly, Probert was sharp, not the simpleton Hazel made him out to be.

"You got it right," I affirmed.

As I spoke, I kept a watchful eye on Fidelia. She seemed uneasy, quickly glancing around the room.

I knew then that these people were definitely connected to the mystery person behind the cat's eye.

But to our disappointment, all was quiet. New chаpter avąilable on Drаmanоvels.cом

This meant Fidelia was feeling guilty.

I found the cat's eye person in the contacts and checked the profile, but there was nothing to see. I

sighed and turned off the phone.
