No one knew how much time had passed. A jingling sound could be heard in the dark. It sounded as if keys were hitting against each other. The sound was particularly loud in the silent night. After that, the doo was opened.

Two figures appeared in the dark.

"Assistant Shell?" Sam Sorrento looked into the dark room. He took his mobile phone out and turned on the flashlight.

In an instant, the room was lit up.

Maddox Yardley could see what was going on in the room clearly. The woman was huddling her petite figure up in the corner of the room. She held her knees and buried her head in between them. She looked like a curled up cat.

It was unknown when the hair tie on her long hair had been untied. Her hair was spread all over her shoulders, covering her face and ears. She looked like a mess.

For some reason, Maddox could feel the despair and coldness emanating from her.

The feeling was very obvious.

What was going on? Maddox frowned and said in a displeased tone.

"What happened to her?"

Sam heard Maddox's inquiry and took a step forward. He asked, "Assistant Shell?"

She did not respond, and there was no movement at all. She just sat there motionlessly.

"Assistant Shell, Assistant Shell?" When he noticed that she had not moved at all, he hurriedly called her again.

However, there was still no response. It was as if she was dead.

Sam turned around and took a glance at Maddox, only to find him exuding a cold aura.

"Young Master..." Sam said.

Maddox wheeled himself over and stopped beside Kimberly. He said in a cold voice, "Raise your head."

There was no response.
