GoodNovelChapter 298 ELODIR "How the hell did Luke train you? you are all such morons! How could you let them slip through your fingers like that, are you blind?" I was livid, they were supposed to be the best and yet I felt like I was dealing with armatured! When father was still alive, men like these died every day. They never survived. "If something happens to any of the people back at the house, I swear to everything that is holly, I will send you to meet your ancestors!" The men stood there, eyes downcast, like chastised children. It was infuriating to watch. Did I have to tell them everything? Were they really so incapable of taking the Inlative? I could practically feel the disappointment rolling offin waves.
"What are you standing there for?" I seethed inside, my patience already stretched to its breaking point. "Did we get all of them?" I asked, the question more rhetorical than anything, but still, the men hurried to the cars, desperate to salvage whatever remained of their shattered pride.

My heart twisted with worry. I couldn't afford to lose anyone, not after everything that had happened. I hoped against hope that nothing else would go wrong. But deep down, I knew it was only a matter of tbefore things escalated. If anything did happen, Nick wasn't going to be pleased. And if I didn't do something about it, I would be the one paying the price.
I didn't want to ruin my relationship with my son, it took a while for him to warm up toagain after what I did to Olivia. His heart.
I slid into the driver's seat of the car, my fingers trembling as I dialled Luke's number. The phone rang twice before he answered.
"Elodie?" he said, his voice heavy with frustration. I could hear the strain in it, but I didn't care. I was beyond caring at this point. We were both on edge.
"How the hell did you train these men?” I demanded, my voice sharp. “Have you gone soft, Luke?" There was a brief pause on the other end. I could practically hear him grinding his teeth, but I didn't care. I was too angry to soften the blow. "What happened to the men you trained? You know the standard. How could they let this happen?" Silence stretched between us, thick and uncomfortable, but wasn't about to back down. I needed answers, and I needed them now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFinally, Luke's voice broke through the tension. "You know better than anyone how we train our men, Elodie," he said, his words clipped, as though he were trying to hold his own frustration back. "Nothing's changed, and you know what you have to do. If they did something to put everyone in danger back there, you know what needs to be done. Don't callfor nonsense again." I clenched my jaw, the weight of his words settling overlike a heavy cloak. "You're right," I muttered, my grip tightening on the steering wheel. But Luke wasn't finished.
"You are old now, Elodie," he added, a thin edge of sarcasm creeping into his voice. "Make the call." The words stung more than I would care to admit. But he was right. I knew what had to be done. I wasn't syoung recruit anymore, trying to prove myself. I was the one in charge now. And I had to take responsibility, not matter how hard the decision was.
