What was going on?
Joey scratched his head in bewilderment. After a few seconds, it dawned on him that Annie probably distrusted Anderson too and was keeping watch.

Annie gathered everyone together.
Joey seemed to have guessed what she intended. He quietly gave Gul a look, and the two exchanged glances before slipping around behind Anderson to cut off his retreat.

"Mi Pang, did you get everything I asked for last night ready?"
