Chapter 246

Soon, Reynaldo and Kimberly also came out of the president’s office.
Kimberly shouted at me. “Ms. Duffy, we are leaving work. Where are you going? We will accompany you all the way.”
“No need!” I said expressionlessly.
Kimberly wanted to say something else, but Reynaldo said lightly, “Let’s go.”
Watching them walk out of the office, I waited for a while before picking up my bag and heading to the cafeteria.
Many of them hurried home and didn’t eat much in the cafeteria after
work.
When I arrived at the cafeteria, there weren’t many people inside.
When I finished eating and returned to the rental house, it was already completely dark.
The weather is getting colder and darker now.
I leaned wearily against the door panel, my gaze falling on the makeshift sofa.
The scene of Reynaldo bullying me on the sofa last night is vivid in my mind.
I remembered, I hated it so much in my heart.
What else can I do? I don’t even have a little room for resistance now .

However, he will have to go on a business trip early tomorrow morning, so he probably won’t come to bother me tonight.
And this business trip of his, it would take at least two or three days round trip.
So…
Can I plan to escape in these two or three days?
At this thought, my heart suddenly raced.
Yes, he didn’t send anyone to watch over me, and my colleagues at the company wouldn’t pay attention to whether I was absent from work.
So if I ran away, no one would know.
When Reynaldo returned and discovered, I was afraid that I had already run away to a remote area, how could he find me?
And Reynaldo transferred 100,000 to me last night. With that 100,000 on me, what do I have to be afraid of?
The more I think about it, the more excited I become. I can’t wait to run
right now.
No, no, what if Reynaldo goes crazy and comes looking for me tonight? Wouldn’t that be like alerting the enemy?
Calm down, calm down.
It would be over after tonight.
I restrained my excited heart and ran to the balcony to bring in the newly bought bed sheets and duvet cover in the morning.
As I finished making the bed, my excitement had not subsided yet.

I seemed to see ‘freedom‘ waving at me.
Ah, I wish time could pass faster.

To kill time, I went to the bathroom and took a shower, then I lay in bed and forced myself to fall asleep.
I woke up and once I confirmed that Reynaldo had flown to another city, I quietly left.
I even took out my phone and searched for some remote livable cities.
I was afraid of the cold, so I temporarily chose a small city in the south.
With a longing for a future of freedom, I peacefully entered dreamland.

In the middle of the night, I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly faintly heard the sound of a lock being opened.
I instantly woke up and listened attentively to the sounds in the room.
Patter! Click..
I was startled, there was indeed the sound of unlocking, and it seemed like the door had already been opened, someone had come in!
I was so scared that my scalp went numb.
Who came in?
Thief, or pervert?!
I quickly reached for my phone on the bedside table, preparing to make a call to the police.

Suddenly, with a “pop” sound, the lights in my living room suddenly turned on.

Because the living room and bedroom of this house were connected, they were separated by a large glass panel in the middle.
There were curtains, and there was also a door, but I didn’t close the door, and the curtains were not tightly drawn.
So when the lights in the living room turned on, many lights also turned on over here.
Then, I looked through the gap in the curtains and saw, with fear, a person walking towards the bedroom.
The room was not big to begin with, and the person quickly walked a few steps to the bedroom door.
I was so scared that goosebumps rose all over my body, and I quickly crawled down from the bed and hid in the small wardrobe next to it.
Just as I was opening the wardrobe, a playful voice suddenly came from behind, saying, “If you hide in the wardrobe, I won’t be able to find you, right?”
My heart trembled fiercely!
That sound…
Reynaldo?!
I quickly turned my head and indeed saw Reynaldo leaning against the bedroom door, looking at me with a smile on his face.
In an instant, a surge of anger suddenly rushed to my heart.
