Chapter 1304: Just shaken
Never in Nina’s life had she ever received such a twisted gift, and she knew this was not from Finn. But...
"How... did it get in here?"
For a second, her heart stopped as she moved her eyes to the door. Without thinking, Nina jumped from her spot and locked it. Her entire body shook with shock and adrenaline as she rushed to the bedside table where her phone was.
Despite her trembling thumb, she managed to dial the police hotline.
"This is—"
"I need help!" Nina yelled before the call operator could finish. "Please. I think someone got into my house."
Her eyes scanned the room as she gulped. Out of instinct, she checked the windows. They were locked. As she explained the emergency to the operator, she also checked her wardrobe, just to make sure she was alone. Thankfully, no one was inside.
"Yes," she breathed out, knees buckling as her strength wavered. "Yes, please. I’m scared."
"Our officers are already on their way. Please stay on the line. Are you still alone in the room?" the operator asked.
"Yes!" Nina panted. "But I’m not sure if there’s anyone outside."
"Our officers are close. Can you come downstairs?"
Nina pursed her lips, gripping her phone tighter. She had just told the operator she was scared, yet they were still asking her to leave the room.
