Chapter 37 In the Elevator

When Jason Hill heard this, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something. However, before he could say anything, Aletta Rogers had said coldly, “Forget it! It is not that important.”

There was a resignation and acceptance in her tone.

Aletta thought, although he knew the truth, it did not matter. He would still protect Gail Rogers. Now why she kept trying to tell him, even though she knew this fact? Was she a masochist?

Jason looked at Aletta. The woman had encased herself in a cold hard shell in her demeanor that screamed everybody should leave her alone. Jason could not stop himself to lower his head and said, “Just say what you want to say, don’t hide it. Are my mother and the Rogers family…?”

Before he could finish his question, the elevator’s light flickered and went out.

Immediately, their surrounding turned dark and the elevator stopped working.

Aletta was surprised. She asked worriedly, “What’s going on?”

However, Jason stayed calm. He only frowned slightly.

He tried the elevator button, but nothing happened.

He said composedly, “Probably the elevator is having a malfunction.”

When Aletta heard this, her complexion turned slightly. Her mood became worse and her hands and feet gradually became cold.

Looking at the darkness around her making her heart fill with an inexplicable sense of fear.

She swallowed hard. Without her realizing it, she had held the handrail next to her very tight. However, it did not make her feel any safer. Instead, she felt more terrified than before.

She felt the darkness had become a monster that was ready to devour her in one bite!

She wanted to shout, but because she was too scared, nothing came out of her mouth. At the same time, she seemed to hear several men laughing and teasing her. “She is beautiful. Let’s get her and give her to Mr. Walter for some fun.”

Aletta felt her ears buzzing. She felt she had transferred into another scene that had happened a few years ago.
