Chapter 494 - 8.94 I’m So Scared*
How...?!
Lu Yizhou’s heart lurched violently in his chest as his eyes reflected the messy bed.
Cyrus and Luan’s words echoed in his mind. "We have to bring him out... The world is very unstable... His mentality will collapse." All of a sudden, Lu Yizhou felt like he could not breathe. The walls seemed to cave in on him and the blood in his body was frozen into glacier.
Ellen disappeared. He had disappeared when Lu Yizhou was not looking...
No — no, calm down first, Lu Yizhou. Except for the first fifteen minutes where he dealt with Jenny, he had always been outside with Cyrus and Luan. All the time, he had not seen Ellen coming out. Either he had run out as soon as Lu Yizhou left or... he was still in this room.
Lu Yizhou had to search the room first before he could come to a conclusion. Quickly, he adjusted his breathing and calmed himself down.
He pushed the door wider and flicked the switch on, washing over the room with a blinding light. The blanket was crumpled and half dragging on the floor as though Ellen had tripped in his haste to climb off the bed. Lu Yizhou touched the blanket and sensed the warmth that still lingered there. Ellen had not been away for more than five minutes.
Relief flooded Lu Yizhou’s heart. He was right, Ellen must still be in this room. His gaze then shifted to the ensuite bathroom door. He deliberately made his footsteps known as he walked over and knocked gently. "Ellen, are you there?"
He strained his ears and indeed, there was a slight rustle of clothes inside! However, it was so faint and after that, there was no other sound as if... as if the person on the other side of the door had flinched because of his voice earlier. What was happening?
