Elaine lifted the blanket and, holding back the pain, limped out.

Touching the door frame to look out, she found the quiet corridor was empty.

Elaine looked back and saw her suitcase sitting aside the door.

She pulled on the suitcase and moved forward in pain.

It was hard to get down the steps, and by the time she reached the ground floor, she was tired and sweaty, and the place where she had fallen was even more painful.

Elaine took a deep breath and lifted her chin slightly, ready to maintain the dignity she had left and leave the place to forget the awkwardness she had before.

She had just taken a few steps when she smelt the fragrance of food.

It awakened her dormant hunger.

Elaine glanced at the dining room and couldn't move her eyes, nor could she move her feet.

She was starving.

The whole house was silent, and everyone seemed to be asleep.

"Just eat a little before I go."

Elaine put down her suitcase and saw that all the food was just right to eat.

Having been hungry for too long and dizzy, she practically wolfed down her food without any elegance. Halfway through her meal, she choked and got up to find water.

A male voice sounded when she felt like she would choke to death. "There's soup."

Elaine felt embarrassed.

She jerked her head around and looked into the living room. When was he there?

Darnell put down the paper in his hand, stood up and approached her.

Elaine unexpectedly met his gaze and hurriedly averted her eyes, finding a ceramic soup pot with a lid and soon drinking two spoonfuls regardless of anything.
