The Daughter in the Shadows (by Una Norris) novel Chapter 132

Chapter 132 Going Separate Ways

Yunice looked at Wyatt again.

There was another mason why men’s heads shouldn’t be touched.

A man’s head and a women’s mottare off–limits unless they’re a couple.

Yunice raised her eyebrows at the other feather in Wyant’s hair. Who exactly is he staying chaste for?

Was it the women who had been thrown out of the mansion the other day?

Wyatt stooped and got into the car. Jordan glanced at Yunice.

She clutched her backpack and stared at the mountain road. Hardly any cars passed the cemetery this late at night.

So she got into Jordan’s car and sat in the back seat with Wyatt.

Jordan buckled his seat belt and casually asked. “Wyatt, are you going back to Pavilion Hall?”

Finished

But mid–sentence, Jordan suddenly realized that Yunice was still in the car, so he quickly changed his words, “Ms. Saunders, where are you going: Shall I drop you off first”

Yunice clutched her bag and said, “No need. Just drop me off where I can catch a ride.”

Jordan looked at Wyatt again, but Wyant had his fingers pressed to his lips and was staring out the window. He had no intention of insisting that Yunice go with them, nor did he seem to want to take her back to Pavilion Hall.

Yunice glanced at Wyatt

Pavilion Holli Watt’s private residence. Normally, I would have moved in after the wedding.

So it wouldn’t have been a big deal to let me stay there before the wedding.

But Wyatt hadn’t groen tacit permission. Maybe it meant that he hadn’t accepted me yet and didn’t want me to invade his private space.

Or maybe someone already lived there.

Either way. I didn’t care. I never had any real expectations of Wyatt.

Jordan started the car. Soon they entered the busy downtown area, and the traffic began to thicken

Out of nowhere, Wyatt spoke. “Pull over”

He made a hand gesture. “Give her a ride.”

Yunice understood immediately; he wanted to send me away.

She wasn’t clueless. When she heard that, she immediately said, “No need. I can get a cab myself.”

Without hesitation, she opened the door and stepped out.

At the same time, there was a click from the other side. The driver’s door opened, and Jordan stepped out.

He closed the door, flagged down a cab, tossed a few bills into the front seat, and said to the driver. “I got your license plate. Make sure she gets there safe.

“Where to now, Wyatt

Meanwhile, the taxi still hadn’t moved. The driver reminded her, “Seat belt, miss.”

But Yunice had no answer at that moment.
