Three o’clock in the early morning, Elaine was sleeping soundly, when she was wakened up by the doorbell all of a sudden.

She tossed about on the bed for a long time and covered her head with the quilt, trying to block the noise, but the doorbell kept ringing.

Elaine couldn’t bear it any longer. She walked to the door in anger. “It’s so late. What are you doing? You...”

“Ms. James.”

A man working for Darnell was standing at the door.

Seeing him, Elaine sobered up a bit. “What’s the matter?”

The man checked his watch and said, “Ms. James, you only have ten minutes to get packed. Master of Riverside is waiting for you downstairs.”

Elaine was confused. “Where to?”

“Back to Riverside City.”

“But I...” Elaine was still spacey. She looked around. “I haven’t got ready yet. Ten minutes are not enough.”

The man rechecked his watch. “Nine minutes left.”

“Be reasonable, OK? Who can get ready in only ten minutes?”

“Master of Riverside has given you half an hour, Ms. James. However, you’ve wasted the previous twenty minutes.” The man reminded her again, “Eight minutes left...”

Before he finished his words, Elaine had already rushed back to her room.

She pulled out her suitcase, opened the closet, grabbed her clothes, and threw them inside. Then she found that she couldn’t put in other things.

She thought that clothes could be bought when she went back.

Hence, Elaine took out the clothes again and put in some things she bought after coming to City N.

When she rushed to the door with her suitcase, the ten minutes were over.

“Let’s go, Ms. James.”
