432 The Fourth Letter (2/2)

”Ah-mazing!” came the beaming voice of Dylan from the other end.

Xiu finally smiled a little as she heard the happiness in his voice. ”I believe the credit goes to my amazing culinary skills.”

”You already resigned from the job, can you please drop this attitude now?”

”What attitude?”

”Being the biggest jerk!” snapped Dylan. ”No wonder they called you pompous demotivator, you really make my spirit go down. How can you take all the credit? I know your culinary skills are good but still...”

”Mr. Whiny baby, if you got dispirited with just one sentence, that means you don't have much faith in yourself.”

”What do you mean?”

Xiu rolled her eyes which he couldn't see though as she said, ”Idiot! It's the people that make a date special. Food or any other thing just works as a prop. You are the real deal on a date!”

”That makes sense,” agreed Dylan thoughtfully.

Xiu shook her head saying, ”It was my mistake to even call you. Hang up now!” Dylan opened his mouth to say something but she had already hung up on him.

Xiu stared at her phone and then at the letter that was lying on the coffee table. She contemplated for a while, before just picking up the letter again.

'And since I'm writing this letter, you can tell that I didn't die. It was scary, I got some minor injuries as well. But I survived. They said the elevator malfunctioned. And I believed it.

But after today, I really don't think that was just an accident.

Someone is either after my life or someone is eager to make me give up looking for my dad. Whichever it is, I'm not letting go. I'm a very persistent person. So persistent that I can turn into anyone's nightmare.

Whoever is trying to play this game with me, they don't know this player yet.

In fact, this player just changed her name. Now, she's gonna start this game all over again.

Let's see who wins this game of hide and seek.'

For the very first time, Xiu felt like Destiny was a very scary person. As for why she had this feeling, she couldn't tell. But something about Destiny was definitely bugging her.

As for what she meant by someone, was after her life, Xiu didn't know anything. But if what was written was true, then she had one more thing to think; Was Destiny's death really simple?
