There was still no sound from the room, so Sebastian wasn’t sure if Natalie heard him or not.

“Natalie, I know you are awake.Please open the door.Please,” he said in a pleading voice.

Never had he begged anyone like this before.

Time passed by quickly.

Soon, the bright sunlight peeped through the curtains and reflected in the living room.
