“Felix, this is Zara Morgan. I’m sorry, but Mr. Grayson’s watching me closely, so I had to use a new number to contact you,” she explained. 

Even now, Felix could not understand why Silas had made him make that promise. 

“Go ahead. I’m listening,” Felix replied calmly 

“Well… could you accompany me somewhere tonight? I could go alone, but the place is supposedly haunted at night, and I’m really scared,” Zara clarified nervously.
