Chapter 9

• Sophia let out a sigh, she was beyond exhausted from overthinking but the most painful part of everything was that no matter how hard and long she thought about it, there was no way around this, not a single escape route for her, she was going to have to face that reality and leave here.
• She has been at the old woman’s house for four whole days now and the lady has been nothing but nice to her, giving her food and making sure she was okay, but that didn’t make her feel better, she knew that the longer she stayed behind, the more trouble she gets into.
• The best decision she has come up with was to try and go plead her case before the king, whatever outcome it might be, but she didn’t have the diamonds with her, if she did, she would have returned it back, and maybe she would have been able to plead her case.
