Chapter 232: Mr. Foley is in a Bad Mood Today

Kelvin’s figure was perfectly hidden in the darkness, his sharp and deep-set eyes staring at the dark night outside, with a chilling air about him.

As the night grew darker, he stood there until the first ray of sunlight broke through the clouds and scattered down from the sky like a huge curtain being torn open, gradually expanding. The light became brighter and brighter.

The morning light fell on his tall and sturdy body. His whole body seemed to be covered with a soft golden glow. His short hair was blowing in the breeze. Occasionally, two strands of hair playfully danced in mid-air.

Chris had been waiting downstairs for almost half an hour. It was almost eight o’clock now but Mr. Foley still hadn’t come down yet.

He reached out to touch breakfast he had bought along on his way here. The coffee was warm; if he didn’t drink it soon it might get cold later which would affect its taste.

After hesitating for a while, he decided to give Mr. Foley a call.

“Sorry… the number you have dialed is currently switched off,” came back an automated message.

Why was it switched off?

He looked up at the lights upstairs that were still on; Mr. Foley should be home then.

This had never happened before, so Chris decided to go up himself and see if something had happened to Mr. Foley.
