Chapter 3
Enjolras's PoV
"Oh my," Mrs. Thenardier said as I watched her admire my father's watch.
"Let me go polish this up for you," Mrs,Thenardier said as she had started to walk away when I grabbed it out of her hands.
"That won't be necessary madam. Who was that young woman that you fired?" My question silenced the woman. Her husband, I assumed, came up to her side. I guessed that he heard my question.
"Who wants to know?" Mr. Thenardier asked.
"Delacroix. Enjolras Delacroix wishes to know that mademoiselle's name." Mr and Mrs. Thenardier took a long pause before they answered my question.
"Deserae. She has no last name. She has been working for us since we found her on the streets. She says she was 13 at the time. We found her but she seemed to be 15. Oh well. What's found on the street, stays on the street is what I always say. Ha, ha," Mr. Thenardier said as Mrs. Thenardier joined him in laughter.
"Thank you," I said as I made my way out of the filthy scrap of building that called itself an Inn. Deserae. Why did that name sound so familiar. I dug through my thoughts when a light bulb went off. Oh my Lord, Deserae!
