Chapter 2917

Knock, knock, knock! Joan immediately jumped at the sound, her heart leaping into her throat.

Who could it be? She slowly made her way over to the main entrance and took a look at the intercom only to see that it was Abelyn.How did she know that I'm staying here? Of course, Abelyn understood Joan all too well.

"Abelyn?"

Joan quickly unlocked the door and swung it open.

"What are you doing here? What's wrong?"

Seems I guessed right.She does live here.

The corner of Abelyn’s mouth curved up into an almost indiscernible, satisfied smirk.

"Why didn't you tell everyone that you were discharged? We were all so worried about you" she quickly schooled her face into a frown.

Of course, that was all a lie— Joan's safety was the last thing on her mind.

Joan shrugged.

"I just needed some time alone."

That was perfectly fine by Abelyn.

That way, no one would be able to get in the way of her plans.

Joan had been a little shocked by Abelyn's sudden appearance, but she quickly let her guard back down.

"How have you been?"

Abelyn probed meaningfully, looking around at her surroundings.

"Have you gotten used to living here yet? Do you need any help?"

It appeared that she's living alone.

"I'm doing all right.I don't really need anything else."

For some reason, Joan gradually grew uneasy in Abelyn's presence.She could tell that something about her friend felt off, but just couldn't place her finger on it.

The two of them exchanged small talk for a while before Abelyn left.

After all, she had only come to scope out Joan's living situation, not to do anything bad to her yet.

There was a time and a place for everything.

Dustin immediately rushed to Abelyn as soon as she came back home, demanding to know, "Where were you?"

"I just went out for a walk; she laughed.
