Chapter 761

"Jake? If you don't say anything, is our big brother coming in?"

After a long silence without getting a response, Alex, growing anxious, pushed the door open to go in.

Suddenly, the bathroom door swung open, and there stood Jake, his upper body soaked, with water dripping from his hair. But that wasn't all.

He looked as pale as a ghost, clearly out of sorts, moving as if he were a shadow of himself.
