Chapter 427

• Later, Mr. Adler came to pick me up and as we drove home, Josephine Lane's words kept echoing in my mind. I knew I should trust Mr. Adler, and he had assured me before that everything was just a passing cloud in his eyes, so I didn't need to worry. But somehow, I still felt a bit apprehensive. I wear my emotions on my sleeve, so Mr. Adler noticed my uneasiness.
• "What's troubling you?" he asked.
• I sighed and shook my head. I didn't want to bring up the same question repeatedly. Since Mr. Adler told me to relax, I shouldn't keep mentioning it. After all, if I didn't trust him now, it would be my own problem.
