My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

"Follow them," I instructed. I couldn't care about anything else anymore.

Before I could get my orders out, Mullen had already stepped on the accelerator and followed their car. She was a skilled driver who could navigate the car without having to turn on the headlights. Besides, the road was brightly lit; thus, she kept a safe distance from Hendrix's car as she followed them.

Soon, Hendrix's car turned into the entrance of a hospital.

The building looked familiar to me. It was the background of the most searched picture that night-the hospital where Serene was at.

"Shall we go in?" Mullen asked.

"There's no need for that," I replied. Pondering for a moment, I picked up my handbag and got off the car, "Wait for me here."

The hospital was unusually quiet and there was hardly anyone around. Since I was worried about losing them, I did a light run to catch up. Fortunately, Hendrix and others were walking slowly ahead. I caught sight of them entering the elevator.

I stayed where I was for two seconds. After confirming that the elevator door was closed, I crept over and looked at the floor they were headed to.

The inpatient department was located on the third floor. If Hendrix came to see Serene, he would surely have stopped there. However, the elevator went down to the underground parking lot, then to the second floor. Generally speaking, this was the place where the hospital stored medicinal drugs, which was not easily accessible to the public.

Brimming with curiosity, I continued to watch as the elevator finally stopped on the third floor. To prevent coming into contact with Hendrix, I walked to the elevator next to theirs and pressed the button for the corresponding floor.
