ELENA
Recovering from my initial shock, I placed my hand on his chest, pushing him subtly away from me. Little did I know that the man was planning to give me another shocker.
He faced the people and darted his tongue out to run it over his lower lip before wiping it with his thumb with a smug look on his face.
I almost choked on my own spit.
Kattie, who had forgotten about her outstretched hand, watched us with a mixture of shock, envy and anger. Devon ignored her and said, "It was nice meeting you all! I hope you all will stand by the Bells and help Elena in supporting her father.
I am sure that Mr Bell will be out of this case too. Right?" He cocked his brow.
And as if that small action had cast some spell, everyone nodded their head fervently.
"Yes, yes, of course, Mr sanders!"
"Don't worry about Elena, sir! Your fiancee is in the careful hands."
I was amazed at how people were agreeing to every single thing he said. And he wasn't even trying.
