Chapter 21: Oh dear landlord
Maxim was nowhere to be seen by the time she was done taking a shower.
Even when she came upstairs, he was not there in his room.
Diana looked around the bedroom while wiping her damp hair with a towel.
’’Ahh, ahh, Master, ahhhh...’’

Her footsteps slowed down in front of a half-ajar door where she heard Maxim’s voice.
’’No, I was held back by personal matters. But I will be there at the hospital in an hour. So, make preparations for the laminectomy...’’
Diana knocked on the door.
’’Come in,’’ Maxim said after hanging up.
