Kingsley couldn’t help laughing when he heard that. “Why is he so quiet now? Could he have died?”

“I don’t think so.” She took a step closer to Kingsley and made a guess in a low voice. “The soundproofing in this hotel is good. It is probably because his voice has become quieter that we can’t hear him…”
