Chapter 104

When Antonio woke up, night had fallen, and the room was as dark as a cave without a single light on.

After Antonio woke from his dream, a flood of memories overwhelmed him, leaving him utterly drained.

He covered his face and called out without thinking, “Grace, turn on the lights and make some coffee.”

The silence around him was deafening. No one answered.

It hit him then that Grace was gone too.

Everyone was gone, leaving him all by himself.

A wave of loneliness washed over Antonio, heavy and all–encompassing.

He got up, feeling his way through the dark to the wine cellar. Then he had some boxes of booze brought out.

His years of drinking had toughened him up, but his stomach was paying the price. Just a few bottles in, and it felt like his gut was on fire.

He curled up on the floor, his forehead dotted with cold sweat, and a pained moan escaped his lips.

The servant, seeing he was in agony, rushed to help him to the sofa and started searching for medicine.

Yet, Grace was the only one who knew where the meds were, and with them locked away, the servant, unable to find them, grabbed the phone to call 911.
