Avelina replied with a bit of hesitation.
"Nothing much. It's just that I can't help but worry since I would be coming alone without you. You said I have made enemies out of the entire family, even your mother."
"I dare not say, but... what if something happens to me on the way? The car could blow up. I have witnessed such a scenario with my own eyes. What if I get assassinated? Your kind moves easily at night. How would I save myself if I were met with such predicaments?" She looked at him.
There was a high chance that what she just stated may happen. But how would he prevent it?
Draven thought seriously about it, and suddenly, an idea struck him like a bolt of lightning.
He hurried to the closet attached to the wall and opened it. He reached his arms further inside and grabbed what he was looking for.
He pulled out the item, which was nothing but a chessboard, and turned to Avelina.
