Chapter 781:
A few minutes later, the car rolled to a stop in front of an old, historic building.
Allan stepped out and gave a quick order. “Take Rachel back. I'll go up for a walk.”
Alban immediately nodded. “I'll cback for you later.”
“Don’t bother. I'll make my own way back.”
Only after Allan disappeared into the building did Alban start the drive back.
