Chapter 67

Three days later, Wendy stood outside the hotel suite door and knocked on it several times. "Zachary, are you in there?"

There was no reply.

Wendy frowned and then pulled out her phone to dial his number.

The phone rang for a long time before it eventually went to voicemail.

Since they returned from Uriah's place that day, she had completely lost contact with Zachary.

He didn't reply to her messages and never answered her calls. Now, he wouldn't even open the door for her.

She had checked with the hotel receptionist and they had confirmed that Zachary hadn't checked out.

She pounded on the door with her fist and yelled, "Zachary, open this door immediately! If you don't, I'll keep knocking until you do!"

Wendy continued to knock for a solid ten minutes before the door finally opened.

The smell of cigarettes and alcohol immediately washed over her, making her gag involuntarily.
