ELLA.
I was honestly getting tired of climbing the stairs with him.
At this point, my legs were beginning to ache slightly, and the irritation bubbling inside me only grew stronger with every step we took.
Was this his own method of punishing me?
Because honestly, it felt intentional now.
"Are we climbing the entire building or what?" I finally asked, unable to hold back my annoyance anymore.
My voice echoed lightly through the quiet staircase.
Lurgard slowed briefly and glanced back at me.
Just one glance.
Then he turned his head away again and continued walking as though nothing happened.
"One more word from you, Theresa…" he said coldly. "…then don't blame me for whatever you see."
Gosh!
I nearly scoffed out loud.
The triplets were seriously impossible to deal with, especially Lurgard as serything about him irritated me lately—the cold attitude, the commanding tone and the way he always acted like everyone had to obey him.
Was he threatening me now?
