Every word that left his mouth was extremely firm, which made me all the more worried about Nibel's subsequent actions.
Going to Dee Island meant that I would not hear anything about Theo at all.
I looked at Neil. "I can only do this since it's what Nibel arranged, but I want to know how he’ll deal with Theo next."
Neil smiled at my question. "I think it's better that I don't tell you. You'll know everything when you come back from your vacation in a month."
Could Nibel finish his fight with Theo in just a month?
I was doubtful but knew deep down that Neil would not tell me anything even if I asked.
I decided to stop asking questions. Picking up the flight ticket before me, I was about to leave but asked him one more thing before I did. "Will Nibel still have someone continue watching me after I go there?"
Neil got up. "Mr. Nibel isn’t that nasty. He won't investigate you as long as I see you get on the plane, but he'll know if you come back."
"Understood."
After getting my answer, I walked forward and went back to pack my luggage.
Petra had already put the children by the time I returned. When she saw that I had come back, she hurriedly greeted me, "Wanda, where have you been? The children were crying so sadly just now cause they couldn't find you. I felt sorry for them.
"I'll go up and see them."
Petra grabbed me. "Go later. They just fell asleep."
I nodded.
"Did you go to meet Theo's younger brother from another mother?" Petra asked.
"Yes, I did. He gave me a flight ticket." I took it out. "Nibel wants me to leave Whaldorf City."
Petra picked up the ticket with a look of surprise. "You've already done all this. Why does he want you even farther away?"
