At that moment, some faint squeaking came from the door.

She was stunned and pricked her ears. The noise was getting closer and closer as if they were walking back and forth outside the door.

They sounded like rats…

She suddenly felt disgusted and scared. The noise was chaotic, and it seemed there was more than one of them.

After a while, she mustered her courage, looked beneath the door, and looked around from the gap.

She happened to see a big rat staring at her with its red eyes!

“Ahh!“ Cordelia lost herself and was scared. She had goosebumps all over from the scare and leaned against the wall.

After hearing the commotion, the rats out there began to slam against the door. They attempted to squeeze in from the gap.

Cordelia curled up tight as she covered her mouth, stopping herself from crying out loud. However, she could not hold back her tears.

“Marcus, Marcus…” She called out his name in despair.

His embrace would give her a full sense of security every time she was in a crisis.

However, apart from the darkness and walls, there was nothing here.

Cordelia bit the back of her hand while tears were pouring.

Watching the rats’ bare claws and tails squeezing through the gap with the disgusting squeaks, she seemed to be able to smell the foul odor on them.

She even thought of the consequences if she contracted the plague.

She kept backing up, but there was nowhere to go as it was a wall behind her.

“Go away…” she screamed while shaking. “Go away!”

However, she heard hurried footsteps outside the door at the moment. Subsequently, there was some thumping noise. The rats struggled while squeaking. The claws and tails were removed instantly.

Cordelia was stunned, and her mind went blank for a few seconds.

Soon, the noise was gone, as if the world had fallen into a void. It was terrifyingly silent.

She could not stop shaking as she moved toward the door slowly.

“W-Who is it?”
