Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 619 I’m Here to Kill You

The lights on the second–floor corridor had gone out, and the lights from the living room barely reached the stairs, leaving Elias’s towering figure to be engulfed in darkness.

He wore the same clothes as before, with his white shirt stained by a large patch of dried blood. He looked like a blood–soaked hand reaching out from hell, menacing and terrifying.

Sadie was startled by his sudden appearance and instinctively stepped back, almost missing a step.

She grasped the handrail for support and forced a smile. “Elias, when did you get back? I’ve been downstairs. How come I didn’t see you come in?”

Sadie swallowed, her eyes couldn’t help but twitch. His sudden appearance was unsettling.

Sadie tightened her grip on the handrail. “I… I saw the news. Did something happen to Ashley? I was just about to put on a coat and head to the hospital to see her. If you’re home now, she must be all right. Good people tend to be blessed, don’t they?”
