"Let's get out of here.. please," Elise whispered again. This time Loriel was fast. He nodded and scooped her up gently. Then, he carried her in his arms.
"Let's go home," he said. Elise nodded and wrapped her arms around her neck. She felt sad, angry, and devastated at the same time. Her head hurt.
Tessa and her parents didn't dare to block their way because the murderous glare from Loriel was enough to send shivers down their spines.
They could only grumble among themselves once Loriel was out of sight.
"Who is that man? Do you know him, Tessa?" Linda York asked her daughter. Tessa shook her head and gritted her teeth.
"I don't know him, but I saw him eat dinner with Madeline once in an upscale restaurant," she replied. "The man is evil. He went to our hotel and viciously beat up Julian."
"Oh.. so, it's him who assaulted Julian?" Her father asked in surprise. "We should report him to the police!"
