Once he left the house, Petal texted Jacob, telling him to come to her house. For some reason she was feeling scared and didn't want to be alone, though the bodyguards were just inside, she wanted someone to be with her in the house.
Putting her phone on the table, Petal put her hands on her lower abdomen, hoping to ease the pain she was feeling. She didn't know why but suddenly the pain became stronger and she began to feel dizzy.
Petal stood up and walked to the kitchen to drink some water. Drinking a full cup of water, Petal opened the kitchen window to get some fresh air. If the guards weren't around, she would have taken a walk outside the house.
Looking at the time on the wall clock in the kitchen, Petal hoped that Jacob wouldn't take long to arrive.
**********
An hour later, Jacob finally arrived, not finding a very stressed Petal waiting for him.
"What happened? Where's Ethan?" Jacob asked.
