To Carter, a smart woman like Madeline would definitely not play the game according to the rules; instead of running downstairs, she would be running upstairs to confuse him.

However, this time, what Carter did not expect was that Madeline neither went up nor down.

She was now trapped behind the iron door leading into the fire escape.

Madeline’s heart was racing. After listening to Carter’s footsteps growing fainter and fainter upstairs, she pulled the palm on her mouth away and turned her head back suddenly.

When Madeline was about to speak, the man shushed her and took Lillian away from Madeline’s arms. He then took Madeline’s hand with the other hand and decisively walked out of the fire escape and towards the elevator.

After Carter had walked up a few floors, he suddenly realized that something was amiss.

Madeline was carrying Lillian, so she could not have run that far.

When he ran in just now, the whole corridor was quiet, completely absent of sound. Therefore, Madeline could not have climbed the stairs while carrying her daughter.

As he thought about this, Carter quickly turned around and returned to the floor earlier.
