Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 659

Chapter 659

Soon after leaving from the south gate of the Lenoir residence, Emmanuel felt

movement from Claudette, who was in his arms.

“Claudette! Claudette, are you finally awake?”

The night sky was beautiful that night, and through the dappled light filtering

through the trees, Emmanuel saw Claudette’s eyelids fluttering.

The next moment, Claudette slowly opened her eyes and checked out the

surroundings.

She didn’t ask where they were but instead furrowed her brows slightly,

saying, “Emmanuel, have you… have you taken me away from the Lenoir

residence? W–We can’t take this route, though!”

“What…” Emmanuel was stumped. “Why?”

“Water… I want to drink some water first…”

Claudette’s throat was a little hoarse, and her lips were dry. It was evident

that the nurses who had been looking after her had been very negligent. In

another sense, they were also competent.

Being a thoughtful doctor, it had occurred to Emmanuel that Claudette might

want water as soon as she woke up and had prepared a bottle of water for

her in advance.

After taking a few sips, Claudette sounded much clearer. “You know… this

house is a military facility… don’t you?”

Emmanuel nodded in affirmation.

Although there was still a considerable gap compared to the fortress–style

mansions he had seen during his missions in the Northern Region, this

mansion in Yeringham was undoubtedly the most professional military

building.

“The main entrance of the Lenoir residence is in the north, bordering the main

road of Yeringham’s city center. The east and west gates have small paths

that lead directly to the military barracks in Yeringham. Only this southern

gate… it’s a dead end!”

“What?!” An ominous feeling immediately arose within Emmanuel.

“It’s true. If you continue a short distance ahead, you’ll see cliffs…” Claudette

continued.

path. Unfortunately, the feeling of happiness was always so fleeting.

people, step by step. They were mostly familiar faces to Emmanuel.
