Chapter 50

In the living room, Veronica was nowhere to be seen, so the first thing that Matthew did was rush into her bedroom.

However, she wasn’t in her bedroom as well, but in the end, he realized that the bathroom in her bedroom was deadlocked.

He screamed, “Veronica! Veronica!”

As he shouted, he lifted his feet and kicked open the bathroom door. Using the flashlight of his phone, he saw that Veronica was on the bathroom floor.

At that moment, he immediately rushed inside to protect her face with the suit that he used to cover his mouth and nose. Then, he carried her up and ran out.

 

Xavier, who was standing in the corridor, first thought that Veronica was already dead. However, when he saw Matthew running out with her in his arms, Xavier froze while his eyes widened as he stared at her in disbelief.

“Veronica? Veronica?” He approached her and called several times, but there was no response.

Matthew carried her all the way downstairs and took her to an ambulance, but Xavier was denied access by the medical staff.

While accompanying Veronica inside the ambulance, Matthew finally realized that her feet and arms were burned and had blisters when the bright lights shone on her. A huge portion of her long hair with ends that fell at her waist was also burned.

Due to an excessive amount of smoke inhalation, she was now in a coma.

When they arrived at the hospital, she was admitted straight to the emergency room for treatment.

Half an hour later, she finally woke up… but in her dream.

“Ah, save me!” she screamed and sat up in shock while her head was drenched in sweat. Due to her sudden movement, she tore her wound, which caused her to wince in pain.
