Shadows Of A Forgotten Spring
Chapter 130
Chapter 130
This wasn't just about Emma alone anymore; this was about all those who had mocked Derek, spoke down to him, and treated him as someone less than a human. His co-workers who had whispered behind his back and laughed at his failures finally would know what he could do.
Derek adjusted his now much lighter bag and stepped back into the elevator. The countup lit up, and with every second, his heart was getting heavier and heavier.
"Let's see you survive this, Emma," he said in a low, venomous tone.
The elevator doors opened, and Derek stepped into the 69 floor where Emma's office was; was the highest floor in the building. It would have been his office if he hadn't failed, and he just wanted to look at it one last time before he dies.
Insanely enough, Derek met Emma on the 69th floor. Instantly, his heart went up to his throat, and for one brief second, he felt the threads of panic start to unravel him. Then he remembered the face mask. It covered his identity, and all he had to do was act normally. As he passed by her, his pace steady and unhurried, he could feel her searing her eyes into the back of his neck.
Emma turned, a flicker of curiosity crossing her face. There was something oddly familiar about the way he carried himself, something she couldn't quite put her finger on.
"Hello." Emma called, her tone tinged with hesitation.
Derek didn't halt. His jaw clenched inside the mask, he quickened his pace.
"Wait!" Emma's voice was firmer now, her instincts telling her that something was not quite right.
He didn't turn around. He reached the elevator, pressed the button, and stepped inside just as Emma broke into a run, trying to catch him.
"The man with the backpack, wait!" she called again, but the doors slid shut, cutting her off.
Emma stood there for a moment, her breath uneven, her brow furrowed in deep thought. Something wasn't right. That man... his walk, his build, his presence, it all felt disturbingly familiar.
She spun on her heels and hurried back to her office, her mind racing. Without wasting a second, she instructed her secretary and personal assistant to notify security immediately.
