Bound by Magic, Married by Fate novel Chapter 102

Valerie had told Lucinda how to break her barrier spells many years ago. The small arrays at the door naturally couldn't stop Lucinda from entering.

Lucinda smiled and asked, "Are the fries good?"

After sleeping for so long, Valerie's stomach was growling from hunger.

She finished the whole bag of fries in just a few bites.

Once she was done, she shamelessly held her hand out. "More."

Lucinda looked at her in mock anger before tossing the bag filled with snacks over.

Valerie took it and rummaged through the contents.

As expected of her best friend. Lucinda knew her tastes perfectly. Every single snack inside was something she used to love.

With food in her stomach, Valerie finally had the strength to speak. "When did you get here? Why didn't you say anything?"

Everett must have sold her out again.

Lucinda sipped her drink through the straw. "I've been here for a while, but you were sleeping like a pig. I saw the dark circles under your eyes and couldn't bear to wake you."

She continued, "While you were asleep, I took a tour of your lab. It's still completely the same as before. I heard you spent 30 million in exchange for a piece of garbage. So, did you get the data you wanted?"

Valerie rolled her eyes at Lucinda. "It's only been a year, but your tongue's gotten even sharper."

Lucinda huffed. "Don't you know why that is? You just disappeared without a word. Do you have any idea how crazy everyone went looking for you?"

"Other than Everett, Kieran, and you, who else knows I'm in Windmere?"

"For now, no one."

"Then don't spread the word. I don't want to attract the attention of certain folks."
