  Chapter 17 Betrayal

   "Dempsey?" Verak stood up, but didn't step forward immediately, "Why are you here? Where's Nord?"

   "Long time no see, Verak!" Dempsey stepped forward to embrace Verak, "I thought we were all going to die..."

   "No, Mr. Fletcher will not kill us." Willak said.

Fletcher finally explained: "Remember our agreement? I said that I would arrange for your friends to stay with you as soon as possible. During this time, I also trained two of your friends. Among them, Dempsey's The fastest progress, just reached the standard today, so I brought him here, and he will stay by your side as your personal bodyguard in the future."

There was always something wrong, but before Veraker had time to think about it, he made the most appropriate response under the situation. He ecstatically embraced Dempsey's shoulders, showing the brightest smile these days on his face: "Thank you, Mr. Fletcher! I will work harder and not let you down!"

   "Hehe." Fletcher smiled slightly and went out the door, "Let's catch up on the past first."

  The door was closed, and Verac, as usual, leaned on the door to confirm that Fletcher was gone, and finally showed his true emotions, no longer a courteous smile on his face, but full of worry: "How is Nord in the hotel?"

   "It's okay, they didn't abuse us, they just didn't allow us to go out." Dempsey said.

   "In my impression, Nord's learning progress should be much faster than yours. Why did you come first?"

   "Verak, you have to be careful." Dempsey said something that made Verak puzzled.

  Verak's face quickly sank: "What do you mean?"

"The old man didn't bring me here for some **** promise, he sent me to spy on you." Dempsey approached Veraker, "Nord learned faster than me, but he rejected Fletcher's deal. And I, on the surface, agreed, but in fact it was to pass on news to you."

"So it doesn't depend on who learns fast at all, but who accepts Fletcher's deal to come here?" Verak couldn't figure out what went wrong with him. Fletcher was alerted so early in this life. He arranged for his friends to monitor him.

"That's right." Dempsey lowered his voice, "Fletcher said that after half a year, everything is calm and you will be eliminated, and the secret will remain a secret forever. If we want to live, we have to be used by him and help him spy on you. After half a year, you can get a generous reward and leave Laizein."

  Villac frowned: "Half a year?"

  In the last life, he was eliminated in two months. Why did it take half a year this time? I shouldn't have done anything that can affect the future. It's too weird to suddenly extend it to half a year. And no matter what, even if Fletcher really wanted to get rid of himself in half a year, how could he tell Demps such an important matter casually.

   "Yes." Dempsey didn't know what Veraker was wondering about, and continued, "It's only been half a year."

   "Nord rejected Fletcher's request, will something happen?" Verak is more concerned about Nord's situation.

   "He's fine now, Fletcher didn't touch him." Dempsey replied.

Verak rubbed the bridge of his nose: "Perhaps he is afraid of accidents. He has been threatening me with your safety. As long as I have the possibility of refusing to obey his orders, he can't do it for a little one. Little Nord, force me to take the Thomas family with me to the end."

   "Do you have any ideas now?" Dempsey asked, "I think we have to hurry up and find a way to escape from here."

"Did Fletcher reveal any useful information when he made a deal with you?" Veraker didn't answer what Demps was eager to know, and chose to continue to learn more about this matter first, "For example, why do you want to spy on me? And why do you want to get rid of me after half a year."

   "No, he didn't say anything." Dempsey shook his head, "I'm also curious, what did you do to make him so wary of you?"

  The two looked at each other.

   "I didn't do anything, I just tried my best to do everything he asked me to do. But I didn't expect it to end like this... I will definitely die in half a year? Hehe..." Verak smiled helplessly.

"That's strange, you obviously didn't do anything, why did he bring me here to monitor you?" Dempsey looked puzzled, "Verak, if you think about it carefully, have you ever done anything bad? ?”

Verac lay on the bed: "What can I do? I'm just a puppet at the mercy of others, a **** that will be discarded when it's used up. What do you hope I can do? Against Fletcher and the entire Thomas family? ? I dare not, and it is impossible to do it at all.”

   "Then I'll go talk to Fletcher? If we keep ourselves safe and really haven't done anything against them, they shouldn't kill us all." Dempsey reassured.

"It's useless, it can be seen that Fletcher is determined to want me to die." Veracer's face was pale, and he seemed weak when he spoke, "That's it, at least if I die, you can live too Go on. It’s better than you standing on the same front with me and being eliminated together in the end. It’s just Nord, he’s too single-minded, I’m afraid it’s more or less ominous…”

"Leave Nord's matter to me." Dempsey walked to the bedside and looked down at the devastated Veraker. "At least in Fletcher's eyes, I belong to him. As long as I can find a way to convince Nord, It should be fine to ask him to be flexible, and just obey Fletcher on the surface like me. As for you, don't be discouraged, there are still half a year, and we have plenty of opportunities to escape from Lezein."

  Verak closed his eyes and covered his face with his hands: "Let me rest, I'm tired."

   "...Okay." Dempsey responded, "I'm going out first, Fletcher will arrange a room for me."

   "Where are you going to live?" Verak asked.

   "Should be living in the same place as the servant. Living with you will reveal the truth." Dempsey patted Verac, "Cheer up, I'm leaving first."

  Verak didn't respond or move until he heard the door open and close. He slowly took his hands off his face, showing an expression of disbelief.

   "Nord..."

  Endless sadness welled up from my heart.

  If it was Veraker from the previous life, even if Dempsey's acting skills were clumsy and his rhetoric was illogical, he would not have the slightest doubt and told him everything without hesitation.

   But now, he saw through Dempsey's disguise at a glance. That was a truth that he was very unwilling to face, and he could only face it after repeatedly getting confirmation from Dempsey's mouth several times.

   Demps was really bought by Fletcher.

   Nord is also very likely to have encountered an accident.
