Chapter 42 None Of My Business (2/2)

Therefore, despite his continuous knocking and banging, Jack still failed to get the door open.

Emily quickly washed off the foam on her body, as she had kept Jacob waiting outside the bathroom for her. Soon after she was done, she put on her clothes almost immediately.

Seeing the shadow

n her dream, she was in a big forest, when suddenly there appeared a big black snake. It was paralyzingly frightening, as no matter how much she tried to run away from it, the snake caught up to her all the time.

At last, when the big black snake finally caught up to her, it wrapped its long tail around her, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Emily's momentary relief was cut shorter when she turned to look at the clock,”Oh, no! I'm late!”

She rushed out of the bedroom and ran towards the bathroom for a wash. After she got out of the bathroom, she saw Jacob sitting in the living room, ready in his formal clothes. Instead of saying anything, she quickly ran to the door and looked outside through the peephole.
