Miss Magdalene was surprised to hear this. After all, Rosa didn't seem to know anyone in the group. Throughout the journey, she had kept to herself and hadn't gotten close to anyone.
In fact, apart from eating and sleeping, Rosa hardly spoke to anyone. Seeing her suddenly refuse to go to the camp made Miss Magdalene wonder once again if Rosa truly had something to do with the missing box.
"Why? We're of no use here. It's better to assist Physician Dorothy later in the camp for the injured," she emphasized the word assist to Rosa.
Rosa bit her lip. She remembered that Anastasia had told her not to reveal the truth about the swap until she returned. She really had no valid excuse to remain behind.
"I'm not feeling well, and I don't think I'm fit to travel. I was just afraid I might slow others down," she said, coming up with a random excuse.
