Sensing the movement inside, Mark pulled Hansel away.
Looking at Mark’s hurried appearance, Hansel frowned. “What’s wrong?”
“There’s something I need you to do!”
“What is it?”
Mark came up to him and whispered something in his ear. Hansel listened and nodded. “Alright, I got it. I’ll go right away!”
Lingo sneered from the side. “Heh, what’s the need to whisper like that? It’s not like I want to hear it!” Then, she walked to the side.
Hansel saw that and smiled helplessly, and walked up to grab her. “Well, I need you to do this matter with me. We didn’t plan to hide it from you!”
“Tch, who wants to hear it?”
“Alright, alright, let’s talk while we walk.” Hansel pulled Lingo away.
Mark stood at the side and watched their backs without thinking too much about it. Now, the most important thing was to save Gretel.
Lyla was undoubtedly happy to hear the news.
As long as Lola agreed, she felt that Gretel would definitely be saved.
Thus, Lyla appeared in Lola’s room.
Lyla did not feel guilty about what happened that day in the slightest. Nevermind her, anyone else reacting that way would be normal. Lyla did not owe her anything.
“Do you need something?” Lola asked coldly, not even looking at her.
“I heard you agreed to save Gretel. Is that true?”
Lola raised her eyes at that. “That’s right, but I have a condition!”
“Condition? What condition?”
Hansel only told her that Lola agreed, but he did not say much, and he did not mention anything about a condition.
Lola smiled and was about to say something when Mark interrupted from the side. “You only need to do what you should do!”
With that, there was nothing more Lola could say. She looked at them before dropping her eyes and ignoring them.
Lyla knew Mark and understood.
If he said that and was able to cut off Lola’s words, there was definitely something he was hiding from her.
Lyla turned to him. “What condition?”
“It’s just a little thing!”
“If it was just a little thing, why do you need to hide it from me?!” Lyla retorted.
“I’m not hiding it from you. There’s just no need to say it!”
“Mark Pattinson, look me in the eye and repeat what you just said!”
Mark looked at her. Even if he was indifferent and cold, to Lyla, he felt multitudes of reluctance.
“Lyla, believe in me. I’ll handle it!”
Lyla did not say anything and only looked at him.
However, the more Lyla acted like this, the more worried Mark was. He knew all too well about Lyla’s temper. Wordlessness was her sharpest weapon.
Mark gave in and was about to say something when Lola said from the side, “If you want to flirt, then please get a room!”
Mark looked at her and then took Lyla away.
Just as they walked out, Lola raised her eyes and looked at their backs. Her eyes gradually became cloudy.
Then, she took out the photo and looked at the person in it. Her fingers gently touched the person in the photo. Mike…
...…
In the room, Mark and Lyla walked in, but Lyla still was not speaking. Mark grew afraid and gave in.
“Alright, I’ll talk!”
Lyla finally looked at him.
“It’s nothing much. I agreed to help Lola take revenge, and she agreed to save Gretel!”
“Revenge? What revenge?”
Thus, Mark told Lyla about Lola. As Lyla listened, although the story was beautiful and moving, she was not a person who indulged in this kind of story. Call her selfish or ruthless, but these were none of their business, yet they were abruptly involved in it.
“Central Alliance…”
Although Lyla did not understand what kind of dark place Central Alliance was, she had been with Hansel for a long time and was naturally exposed to it. Even if she did not understand it, she could imagine how dangerous it was.
“Does it have to be this way?”
“That’s the condition. This is the only way she’ll agree to save Gretel!”
“It’ll be dangerous, right?” Lyla asked. Her expression looked calm, but it was clear that she was very worried. She was almost trembling, but she simply did not say it out loud.
Mark smiled upon hearing this. “If it were me from the past, this would be a common occurrence!”
He clearly said it very casually, but why did it sound like there was a feeling of despair and heartache?
