CHAPTER 84: CHAPTER 84 THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM

Soren suddenly didn’t know what to say, perhaps in his mind, he always thought Mabel Quinn still liked him, never imagining that one day she would say such things to him.

The two of them were very close, his hand still gripping her arm, his head bowed low, and those eyes, almost as if trying to see through her.

Neither of them noticed that not far away, a black sedan was parked, and the man sitting in the back seat was staring through the window at Mabel Quinn and Soren with an inscrutable expression.

Caleb, sitting in the front, didn’t dare to breathe too heavily. Who could have guessed that Elder Kinston would specifically wait here for Miss Quinn, and Miss Quinn, was together with that man named Soren. Caleb, who was previously responsible for investigating Mabel Quinn’s file, naturally knew that this Soren was more or less a childhood friend of Mabel Quinn.

Even though the current distance, coupled with being in the car, made it impossible to hear what they were saying, their stance together was somewhat ambiguously suggestive.

Caleb was well aware that his boss’s attitude towards Mabel Quinn was absolutely unusual, and at this moment, Elder Kinston’s silence in the back seat made Caleb’s heart beat faster.

"Caleb, go call Mabel Quinn over." Kyle Kinston finally spoke, his cold voice calm, revealing no emotion.

"Yes." Caleb received the order, opened the car door, and walked towards Mabel Quinn and Soren.

"Miss Quinn, please get in the car." Caleb respectfully said as he approached.

Mabel Quinn was startled, blankly staring at the suddenly appearing Caleb, "What are you doing here?"

"Please get in the car." Caleb repeated, gesturing at the black sedan not far away.

Mabel Quinn guessed that Caleb was probably sent by Kyle Kinston to pick her up, after all, Kyle had mentioned earlier that she needed to be in his room by 7 p.m., and it was already past 6.

"Who are you?" Soren was displeased at being ignored.

Caleb didn’t answer Soren’s question at all, but simply raised his hand, expertly tweaked Soren’s wrist, making Soren release his hand in pain.

"Miss Quinn, let’s go." Caleb said.

Mabel Quinn nodded and headed towards the black sedan.

Soren wanted to follow, but Caleb had already stopped him, "I advise you not to move, otherwise, you’ll regret it."

The warning in the other’s eyes made Soren’s body stiffen, and even after the black sedan drove away, he still pressed his thin lips together with an uncertain expression.

This man, who could make his wrist hurt with just one finger, was not simple. How did Mabel Quinn know someone like that?

Meanwhile, Mabel Quinn inside the car was completely tense, she never expected Kyle Kinston to be sitting inside the car, and at the moment she got in, her eyes met his, instantly making her heart race wildly.

Then, he merely instructed Caleb to drive with a calm tone and closed his eyes as if to rest. Yet inexplicably, Mabel Quinn felt increasingly uneasy.

The car was almost completely silent, but it felt like the calm before the storm.

Mabel Quinn checked the time, it was already 6:30. If it weren’t for him picking her up, there would be no way to reach the Kinston residence by 7 by simply taking the bus.
