Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 577

Chapter 577 Remaining Calm

“Can you tell me more about this place?”

Elspeth looked around. She kept getting the feeling that there was something fishy about this fairly small room.

“This room is filled with cameras pointing at every angle. Old Mr. McGrath had the security cameras installed to keep track of everyone and make sure no one escapes.”

“What else?”

“There’s a signal jammer installed in this room as well. Nothing can be sent out.”

Elspeth frowned. “That’s why he didn’t even search me.”

“Why would he need to? All he has to do is toss you into this room and drug you. You’ll be nothing more than a sitting duck.”

Winter found Elspeth pitiful. “How did they manage to kidnap you and throw you in here?”

Elspeth pursed her lips. “He said I’m an exceptional drug tester. Plus, I have beef with him.”

“How did you manage to have beef with a recluse like him?” Winter began to get more talkative after getting to know Elspeth better.

“He’s no recluse. He’s just someone who’d do anything for the sake of his granddaughter.”

The two of them carried on talking.

“My family knows that I’m here to study. Also, for the past two years, Old Mr. McGrath has been sending letters to my family that were written in my handwriting, so they don’t suspect anything yet.”

Winter felt rather helpless.

She could only chalk it down to the fact that she was an unfavored daughter. Her family wouldn’t have thrown her abroad if that hadn’t been the case. She knew that the Rovers would have stirred up a frenzy if her younger brother had been the one who went missing.

“But, in your case, if you disappear for long, I think plenty of people would come looking for you.”

Elspeth nodded. “I managed to send out a text before I was brought to this inner room.”
