Chapter 1549
At the Whites'.
Ethel Collins had been waiting at the basement entrance all afternoon. It was quite late now, but Milton White had not yet emerged.
She was anxious, even pressing her ear against the door and listening for a while.
From inside, a haunting song was playing on loop. Aside from that, there were no other sounds, which worried her.
She brought over some food, but it had all gone cold by now.
At this moment, she finally heard a commotion from inside and perked up immediately.
As the door opened, she quickly held up the food.
"Milty, it's time to eat!"
The man's face in front of her seemed a bit haggard, but that quiet and gentle feeling was still very beautiful.
He didn't look at the food, simply saying, "I'm not eating, you go rest."
"Why aren't you eating? You'll get hungry if you don't eat. I've had four meals today and still feel hungry. Milty, you had a little bit this morning and haven't eaten anything till now. Are you not hungry?"
