Chapter 137
When Ms. Janice returned to inspect their bunks, she noticed that Marina and Daisy had switched places.

Sandra’s expression was complicated as she looked at Bennett. “Mr. Bennett Thompson,” she said coolly. “I’ve heard a lot about you p>
Rachel and Marina, meeting him for the first time, stammered a nervous, “Mr. Bennett Thompson p>

We meet again p>
Bennett’s demeanor was distant with everyone, including Yvonne, giving him an
unapproachable air. Thomas, on the other hand, was warm and friendly.
