Chapter 22

• She tugged in her clothes and other necessary stuff inside her bag. She wished she would have been doing it for a positive reason. She was told that Alexander had given her four days and that on the fourth day, she would be in his house, the man's house from whom she was fleeing. Mrs. King, thankfully, persuaded Alexander to allow her a few days. That wasn't like it was going to be a solution for her. Worst of all, he planned to take her on her birthday. It infuriated her. She might also dislike her own birthday.
• Sighing, she chained her bag and kept it beside the bed. She didn't want to leave that place, she was tearing up thinking she might not even be able to see Martha and Venessa, worse, she might not even see Caroline again!
• She glanced at the calendar that was hanging on the, it said 10th august.
