Chapter 135

Caroline was soaked from head to toe, and she was only dressed in a swimsuit. But she didn’t notice it at all. The only thing she was focused on was the gigantic castle in front of her.

Kirk was inside, and she couldn’t be sure if he was going to be alright. She couldn’t force her way into the building. If only she could contact Ivan right now.

However, her clothes and phone were still inside. Glancing around at the desolate street, she felt chills in her heart as she recalled everything.

Flonza was known for its vast land and tiny population. It would be difficult for her to find someone to borrow their phone.

All of a sudden, she remembered the hotel staff who had driven her here tonight. Perhaps she could get help from the hotel staff.

Besides, the hotel wasn’t too far from here. It had only taken about ten minutes or so to reach here by car. If she walked there, it would probably take about an hour.

Time was of the essence, and Caroline’s mind was set on going to the hotel. She tried to recall the way there and hastened her footsteps.

This area was kind of deserted. She had to walk for a long time before she finally came across a street lamp.

Night fell. As she passed a few houses, she realized that people were starting to turn their lights off for the night.

Everything was becoming darker.

There wasn’t a single shadow of a person on the streets now. She felt as though she were treading through a bleak and godforsaken desert.

Since she didn’t have her shoes, her feet were bare. They left light footprints on the ground with every step she took.

It took her more than an hour to reach the hotel. When the manager in charge of night duty, Henry Diaz, saw Caroline’s state, it gave him a fright. He was the one who’d brought her her swimsuit in

the afternoon.

Caroline was in her swimsuit, and her face was rather red from exhaustion now. There were water droplets on her forehead. No one could tell if it was sweat or water from the pool.

Quickly, he strode to her. “Madam–Mrs. Morrison, what happened?” He signaled for one of the other staff members to bring her a towel immediately.

Caroline recognized nim trying to catch her breath, she asked, “U–can you help me make a call?

“Certainly Who do you want me to call?”
