Chapter 646 - Secret Door (1/2)
When the door opens, their eyes squinted at the sudden light. Senator Rizza closed her eyes and take time to adjust in the brightness although it is not too bright. But coming from a totally dark forest, she would need time to adjust in the light.
When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was a dimly lit staircase that she assumed to be about a hundred steps. There were lights on the wall to make the steps visible. General Grady started to take a step down the staircase.
Senator Rizza followed.
”What do you mean General Grady is a member of the Robin Hood Society but he is not?” Senator Rizza looked behind her asking the driver but was taken aback. She didn't expect the driver to be so good looking. He looks like a guy next door type of guy. And he also looked familiar to her.
The driver grinned at her. ”Please watch your step, Senator Rizza.”
His grin is mesmerizing yet it gave her chills at the same time.
Senator Rizza is now starting to question her decisions and judgment. They were just supposed to talk about the information General Grady has about the heiress of the Robin Hood Society and yet, she allowed them to take her to this creepy place that they said to be the headquarters of the Robin Hood Society telling her that they would take her to its leader.
And ever since then, their answer to her questions has always been confusing.
She is now suspecting that they did something to her that made her not think properly.
At the final step, they enter what seemed like a secret underground passageway. It looked old that one would think that this used to be a secret hiding place during a war. The thought caused her goosebumps.
It was so quiet that only their footsteps were heard but why does it seem like there is more than just three pair of footsteps she could hear. Or is it just her hallucination?
”General Grady, this is taking us long. You just have to give me the information that you have about the heiress of the Society. But why do you have to take me here?” Senator Rizza said behind General Grady. She didn't hide her impatience and irritation.
General Grady stopped in his track and turned to face Senator Rizza. ”Senator Rizza, a king once said, impatience for victory guarantees defeat.” That's when Senator Rizza noticed the change in General Grady's voice.
Her eyes widened upon realization. ”You...”
Suddenly, the wall on her left opens. She didn't notice that it was a door until just now.
A tall, handsome and impassive looking man appeared in front of her.
