Crises in Love novel Chapter 485

Hannah's anger flared in an instant, her hand slamming down on the coffee table. "She's blatantly provoking us, Allie! You were right, I smell trouble brewing!"

Even Logan, who was usually unflappable, had a look of disbelief etched on his face as he fell into deep thought. We were seething, speculating on Clara's motives.

Then, in comes Ronan with purposeful strides, Larkin following close behind.

The moment I saw Ronan, a wave of calm washed over me.

Logan sat up straight and took the lead, "Looks like a trip to the Rhylee family homestead is a must. But it's not the place for you to show your face. I reckon I should go instead!"

Ronan glanced at Logan and asked in a deep voice, "Why?"

Without mincing words, Logan activated his phone, which he'd been clutching all along, and placed it on the coffee table. The recorded conversation from earlier played out loud—turns out recording had become a habit of his.

After listening to the recording, Ronan nodded in agreement, "Seems I really can't be the one to show up there. But that doesn't mean I can't go. I'm not comfortable with her going alone!"

Logan gave me a meaningful look and said, "I'll hold down the fort here. You go."

I felt a tinge of guilt. After all, we were at a critical juncture, and Ronan was the mastermind overseeing everything.

"Maybe Larkin and Hannah could go with me?" I suggested, somewhat sheepishly.

"Nonsense!" Ronan said sternly.

"Allie, considering how things are shaping up, we can't take this lightly," Logan advised me solemnly. "Trouble usually comes from people who are unpredictable and have no limits. You can't just walk into danger alone, get it?"

I had to nod in agreement, "You're right. What I don't get is what she meant by her words and why she would notify Jaylan?" I voiced my doubts.

"It makes sense. After all, he's the kid's father and has ties to Zora," Hannah chimed in.

"It's probably not that simple!" Logan leaned back on the couch, exuding an air of confidence. "There's likely a deeper meaning behind Clara's move."

Hannah turned to Logan, "So, do you think Jaylan will show up?"

Logan pondered for a moment before replying, "That depends on Clara's scheme. If she wants you there, do you have any reason not to go? Consider her tone and the urgency in her call; how could you possibly stay away?"
