Chapter 16

Abel rushed in only to see the shadow vanish from the window.

"Seal the hospital!" He roared. "Catch that damn woman!"

"Abel," Adrien seemed doubtful. "Isn't Emmeline trapped in the utility room?"

He was going to the utility room to check for himself whether or not the woman was Emmeline!

The group raced after him.

Alana's expression was one of grim satisfaction. You're done for this time, Emmeline!

Abel unlocked the door of the utility room when they reached the dimly lit backyard.

He flicked on the switch only to find Emmeline curled up on a tattered couch sleeping soundly.

She lazily turned over, her eyelids fluttering open at the commotion outside.

She then stretched and smiled at Abel. "You're finally back."
