Chapter 359: Please Do Not Purchase
The nurse count down to five as she stared at Arissa back, waiting for when it would happen. The moment her countdown got to zero, the elevator door was opened and the man she had been waiting for showed himself.
"Father!" Arissa stumbled backward in shock and fear but in the next moment, her expression turned strong and her voice firm, "Why are you here, Mr. Lincoln?"
Were the heavens kidding her or was it her eyes? How did Alfred get here and what in the Lord’s name do he want here?
The worst thing was he met her here and this hallway was for Adele alone. How did this man get here? Her spinning head that was once clouded with thoughts of Nicklaus cleared and her survival instinct kicked in.
It was obvious her father doesn’t have good intentions for coming here. His manic aura explains it all. He was clutching what looked like a gun inside his waistband.
The sight of this made Arissa’s blood drain. She was scared beyond repair. She hopes she’s wrong because if she should be right, that means her father was holding a gun to visit one of his daughters.
Since it was her father, Arissa was supposed to feel safe, she should but she could not help the question that found their way into her head. Would the gun be for security or to take a life?
"My sweet little, Rissa," Alfred called her with a newfound deadly low voice as he strolled out of the elevator.
Arissa swallowed. Her eyes were fixed on his hand holding unto his waistband as beads of sweat left her. He held whatever weapon he was holding unto there impatiently as if he can’t wait to kill whoever he came for.
She tried not to imagine the negative but Arissa knew what she was seeing and again, who says he won’t kill them if he wants to.
She wasn’t sure about herself but she was sure about Adele. For her father to inject those substances into her, he was set to kill her that day and today makes no difference.
