Chapter 176 Turning the Tables
Faith had come in good faith, but no one expected Jewel to show up and ruin everything.
Rosalie also fell silent. She had imagined countless possibilities-pressure from the tribe, or Jewel simply disliking her. She had never expected such a ridiculous explanation.
Now that she understood Jewel’s attitude, she also knew it did not fully represent the tribe’s stance. The thought eased her worries.
She exchanged a look with Faith. Both of them carried the same anger at being played.
Jewel had dared to use the tribe’s name to scare and deceive so many people. Now she would have to pay for what she had done.
Jewel had never behaved well back in the tribe. Faith had ignored it before. But she never imagined Jewel would go so far as to try to kill her. This time, Faith would not let her off.
The two women huddled together and whispered for a long time, coming up with a plan to deal with Jewel.
Faith ignored the injury on her back and slammed the table as she stood up.
“I’m going back to the tribe now.”
To move quickly, Rosalie asked Gael and Julien to escort her back. Once Faith returned, she would report everything Jewel had done.
Of course, the tribe would not believe her so easily. When the time came, Faith would bring Jewel herself.
Rosalie would hold things down on this end.
Gael’s face clearly showed one message. He did not want to go.
They had just been assigned as undercover scouts, and now they were being sent off again. They barely had time to stay by Rosalie’s side.
Gael looked at Rosalie suspiciously. “You’re not trying to dump the two of us while we’re gone, are you?”
Rosalie flicked his smooth forehead. “What nonsense are you thinking?”
Gael covered his head, tears already pooling in his eyes as he looked pitiful.
She had barely used any force. He was clearly acting.
Unfortunately, Rosalie was weak to this kind of behavior. She rubbed his forehead, even though it was not red at all.
Good thing Cameron was not here. Otherwise, he would definitely call Gael a jinx.
Satisfied, Gael prepared to leave at once. Julien stayed behind, staring at Rosalie with dark eyes, clearly wanting something.
