Thomas stood at the entrance, ringing the doorbell for a while, but nobody answered the door. Anxious, he took out his mobile phone, getting ready to call the police when the door finally opened.
Then, Thomas saw Scarlett Glenn standing there in the doorway like a ghost with her pale face. She seemed to have just taken a shower, her hair still dripping with water, looking extremely weak, her body shaking and trembling.
Thomas quickly grabbed Scarlett's hand, helping her in: "Sis, what's the matter? Are you having a stomachache again?"
Scarlett didn't answer him: "Do you have any cigarettes? Give me one."
"Men's, is that alright?"
"Yes... "
Thomas hurriedly took out his own cigarettes, carefully handed one to Scarlett, and then took out a lighter to light the cigarette.
When Scarlett suffered unbearable stomachaches overseas, she would smoke. It was not an addiction, but a habit.
