Eliana slowly raised her head and saw Maurice’s worried face appear in the dim light of her phone.

“Maurice? Is that you?”

She squatted on the floor in a daze, fearing that what she saw at this moment was only an illusion before she drew her last breath.

“I don’t know what happened. Are you here to save me?”

Eliana felt her sanity slipping away. She was startled when Maurice suddenly appeared after she murmured his name.

“It’s me, Eliana. Everything’s alright now. I’m here to rescue you. Can you stand up?”

Maurice stared at the pale woman in front of him, fearing that she would disappear the moment he closed his eyes.

She was still in a haze, obviously disoriented due to the stress and long period of isolation. Other than her disheveled appearance, it seemed that she was safe and sound.

Maurice finally breathed a sigh of relief.
