Charlotte had heard everything, every single word, but nothing really happened because of it, she didn't say anything at all, she just hugged James, and in the following days she stayed with him, grabbing his hand or resting in his arms, never leaving his side even once, while they all did everything they could to make sure Erika was fine.
Though, in truth, they didn't really need to do much, because Darvik once again showed who he truly was as out of nowhere she turned Erika into a permanent resident of Maraci, got her a healthcare card, a identity card, a passport, and even a bank card, which was possible because James handed over all the cash they had brought with them.
In short, Darvik was a motherfucker who could get anything done in a single fucking day, though it was painfully obvious that this was also his tactic, to draw James closer and closer, making sure they weren't just on good terms, but on great ones, before the time finally came for them to go back.
