Milly was about to rush after Xavier to clarify things, but Xavier seemed uninterested in talking to her and headed upstairs instead.

The situation was getting weirder and weirder.

Did the plot of the novel change? Or did my being trapped in the book cause a butterfly effect?

Ugh!

Frustrated. Milly pulled her hair as she collapsed onto the sofa. If she had known she would end up trapped in the book, she wished she had just read and memorised the entire novel instead, so she wouldn’t have to guess what was going on now.

Just then, a ghostly cry echoed from the doorway.

“Jordan, you have to believe me! I swear on my honour that I have no ulterior motives towards Milly! I’m not some beast!

Milly was perplexed.
