While Landon was more than ready to oblige any request the girl had, he wasnāt expecting the one that was made. A ride out of town? Wow, maybe his assumptions about this place hadnāt been so far-fetched. A small chuckle fell from his lips before he tilted his head to the side, āYou want to get out of this place that badly? And here I was trying to give Hollowcrest a chance but youāre not really selling it for me.ā He teased before nodding his head in the direction of his car, expecting her to follow him. āAn escape, huh? You know⦠usually, when youāre running from something, your troubles still follow you no matter what. But maybe we could temporarily escape? Find somewhere to forget about all the bullshit in the world for a few hours. How does that sound?ā He was in desperate need of a distraction like this too.
āThereās a reason why I havenāt taken a job here. Iām not that good when it comes to selling,ā she replied, teasingly. However, she didnāt go into why she hated this place to the extent she did -- if he stuck around, heād find out soon enough. Nancy didnāt expect him to allow himself to entertain a strangerās request, but was grateful nonetheless and followed him, catching up to walk beside the male.Ā āYouād actually escape with me?ā She said, almost believing him to be leading her to a cruel trick, because why else would he offer.Ā āIf youāre serious, then I think you might be my favourite resident so far. Unless youāre going to take me to a quiet corner and kill me... Iāve seen it happen before on television.ā
