Chapter 1666: The anxiety
Meanwhile, in a hotel right in the main city...
Hayley, Patricia, and Theo sat around the huge living area of the penthouse where Penny’s men had assisted them the night before. The three of them sat on the couch, staring into nothingness with blank eyes.
Did they sleep the whole night?
To be fair, they had no idea.
Maybe they did nap, but their mental exhaustion was still present.
They couldn’t even eat or drink coffee as they found themselves sitting on the couch. The memories of the night before filled their minds, as if everything was replaying in their heads on a loop.
"Never mind marriage," Hayley whispered, her complexion pale, but the bags under her eyes darker than they should be. It was the same for the Miller siblings. "Miss Penny is right. I need therapy or counseling. Maybe an electric shock to my brain to erase that memory from last night."
The Miller siblings rocked their heads, their dry lips like a desert.
"Do you... do you think... she died?" Patricia blurted out, her brows rising as she sensed two pairs of eyes on her.
When she looked up, she almost jolted at the blank look from Hayley and Theo. If she had more energy, she would’ve jumped from her seat. However, she didn’t have that much energy, despite the horrifying blank looks dominating both Hayley’s and Theo’s faces.
"I’m just wondering..." Patricia whispered, the corner of her eyes reddening. "I don’t want to be — huhu! Mommy, what do I do?!"
In the end, she buried her face in her palms and wept. Calling out her mother, Patricia could feel she was on the brink of snapping.
