Chapter 79: You Can Go
Hazel Hawthorne sensed that something was off. As the man leaned in, she grabbed a vase and swung it at his head.
Unfortunately, the man was quick enough to dodge the vase.
Her hands now empty, Hazel Hawthorne grew tense. Her palms were slick with sweat. ’I’ve been gone for a long time. Holly Shaw must have realized and called the police. The most important thing now is to stall for time until she finds me.’
The man, of course, saw right through her plan.
As the minutes ticked by, the man made no move to harm her. Hazel Hawthorne had no idea what he wanted. The two of them remained at a standoff.
This continued until the man answered a phone call. She couldn’t hear what was said on the other end, but when he hung up, he turned to Hazel Hawthorne and said something bizarre, "You can go."
"..." ’He brought me here, did nothing, and now he’s just letting me go?’
Still clutching the vase, Hazel Hawthorne watched the man warily. "What do you really want? Why bring me here just to let me go?"
"You’re a strange one. You’re not happy I’m letting you go?" the man chuckled.
Hazel Hawthorne narrowed her eyes. Cautiously, she shuffled toward the door, still clutching the vase. She used her free hand to try the knob. It turned. The door was unlocked.
The door opened.
All she had to do was take one step forward, and she would be free.
Hazel Hawthorne turned to look at the man still standing in the room. "You’re really letting me go?"
"Of course."
’This isn’t right. The man only let me go after that phone call, which means he’s taking orders from someone. Who is he working for? What was the point of kidnapping me and then letting me go without doing anything?’
