Waylon didn’t say a word, and Kendrick didn’t dare speak again either. After a while, Louis came back holding his phone, sat across from Waylon, and asked, “What’s her name?”
Waylon perked up and sat straighter. “Jasmine Miller. Her name is Jasmine.”
“Then that’s it. Last name Miller, and she has Jasmine in her name. They’re a family of priests. The Miller family has passed down their ancestors‘ profession for generations. From time to time, members of the family assist the authorities with investigations.”
Waylon leaned forward, urgent. “That’s all? Is there any more info?”
“There is. I just got word in private–they’ve recently sent a few of their most outstanding juniors out into the world for training. Their performance during this period will determine who gets chosen as the next successor. So the Jasmine you’re talking about isn’t just from the Miller family–she’s one of the elite, a direct descendant.”
Louis met Waylon’s desperate gaze and added, “The head of the Miller family is not allowed to marry.”
That sentence landed like a hammer blow straight to Waylon’s chest. He hesitated, then asked, “No exceptions?”
“Never. Also, I was told the most promising one among the younger generation is a girl who always wears a bright green hairpin.” As if the hit hadn’t been heavy enough, Louis added another.
Kendrick watched as Waylon’s face went pale.
Seriously? It’s just a woman. Waylon had always been carefree–how had he ended up like this? Kendrick couldn’t understand what made this Jasmine so special that Waylon would lose his cool like this.
