A glimmer of light flashed through her gloomy eyes when she saw the message that came from a familiar number.
She could feel the shudders on her hand holding her phone. With all her might, she held her hand still before she read the content of the message from the familiar number.
She re-read the message again and again before she shut her eyes.
She no longer had the urge the wash her hands after sliding the phone locked. One step after another, she left the bathroom.
Xu Weilai had no appetite, even though it was time for dinner. Exhaustion devoured her after she went through the long content of the message. After having the door of the bedroom locked, she lay on the bed and shut her eyes to get a rest.
Initially, she thought she would be haunted by nightmares. But her mind was surprisingly blank, probably because of the extreme shock she had. She fell into a deep sleep.
