Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV: 

To prepare for the project on the east bank, Elena and I worked overtime in the company. While I was reading about the project’s information, she began to tease ine.

“Caroline, I didn’t expect you to be such a strong businesswoman now!” I looked her in the eye and sighed.

“People change, you know.”

Time fleeted by while I was busy. Within the blink of an eye, it was already late at night. After yawning several times, Elena broke her silence.

“Caroline, I’m hungry. I’ll go downstairs to the canteen for a little midnight snack. I’ll bring you something to eat when I get back.” I stared at the mountain of documents on my desk and replied, “Okay.”

Then, I lowered my head again and went back to work.

Moments later, my stomach began to grow. I glanced at the clock and found that an hour had passed since Elena left.

‘Why isn’t she back yet?’ I wondered.

Frowning, I took out my phone to call Elena.

“Sorry, the number you have dialed is out of coverage area. Please leave a message after the beep.”

'‘I can’t get through to her. Did something happen?'’ I dropped the call and decided to go downstairs to look for Elena.

Because I had sat for too long, I felt a head rush when I stood up. I perked myself up, went to the elevator, and pressed the button. Soon, the elevator door opened. It just dawned on me that I had left my phone in the office, so I intended to go back to get it.

The following second, I felt an overwhelming force coming from behind me. Someone caught me off-guard and shoved me into the elevator.

“Go to hell!” the assailant shouted.

I fell to the ground heavily. Despite the pain coming from my knees and ankles, I looked up to find out who had attacked me.

At this time, the elevator door was closed and the light inside it was extinguished. I was panicking, so I couldn’t see the assailant’s face clearly. The only thing I was certain of was that he was a man.

Enduring the pain, I struggled to get up and hurriedly pressed the alarm button of the elevator. But no matter how hard I tried, the elevator emergency call was unresponsive.I slammed on the door of the elevator and shouted, “Is there anybody out there? Help! Somebody! Help me. Please!”
