Trapped With The Devil
Section 46
“Dad?”
“Mother?”
The room was dark. Only the occasional flash of lightning and lightning striking above the sky provided a hint of illumination to guide his small steps.
Where did everybody go?
“Dad?”
“Mother?”
His voice trembled with fear. Small barefoot feet touching the cold marble floor. Both hands touched every object within range, until he found a door.
“Mother?”
Kriee.
The door opened slowly. Lightning formed above the sky following a terrifying rumbling sound.
The boy screamed while covering both ears.
Tears poured out staring at the two corpses hanging before him with open eyes.

Selena was sitting on the balcony enjoying a piece of cake when a waiter told her that Emilia was visiting the house.
“Want to meet me?” selena asked confusedly.
The waiter nodded.
“She's alone?”
“Ya, Mistress.”
Selena gnashing. Is Emilia just feeling lonely? And it was strange when the woman visited without Lady William. Even so, the guest is king. Selena can't possibly throw that woman out, right? Moreover, she is pregnant—sama like her.
“Send him in.”
The waiter quickly withdrew, not long after, Emilia entered the room with barely audible steps.
Clamps.
Door is tightly locked.
Selena had yet to notice the woman's presence and remained casually chewing on her piece of cake while staring at such a clear sky.
“Because of you.”
**
BRACKET!
“What do you mean?!”
Eros and Orlando turned their heads towards the man who had just entered and nearly smashed the door.
“Is it true Mr Alex is still alive?!” Andreas glares. “My jawab!” He glanced at Eros with guts. “My answer Sir!” he said while shaking the man's body.
Eros brushed it off quickly. “That's none of your business,” he replied indifferently.
Andrew laughed dryly. “HOW COULD IT NOT BE MY BUSINESS?!”
“You know nothing,” Eros said while turning around. “Alex is dead. You saw the grave yourself, right?”
Orlando sighed softly while closing his eyes. Actually, he didn't want to get involved in anything. But faking someone's death was a crime and Eros could have been sentenced to prison. Orlando believes the man lying in one of the hospitals in Singapore is Alex— - although the man's face is barely recognizable due to the scars from his accident.
Andreas swallowed. “Then what Mr. Orland—“ said
“You work here not to eavesdrop,” sela Eros fast. “Be aware of where your position is.” His tone was full of warnings.
Andreas. Yep. Eros can kick it anytime from this company. One more sentence came out of his mouth about Alex, today also Andreas will definitely go home sooner.
“Back in your room and assume you've never heard anything.”
Andreas regulated his breathing. The man closed his eyes for a moment before bowing slowly. “Sorry for my sassness.” He turned around and left the room after that.
Eros turned back and looked at Orlando who threw a flat look at him. “I don't think you want to get into any trouble with me, do you?”
Orlando blinked and turned his face away. “I don't know what you're planning or what you're covering.” Then his gaze turned serious when he again met the two black beads belonging to Eros. “Do not until Selena is injured, or.”.
“Or?”
Eros was stunned until finally chuckled softly. “No I thought a man like you liked someone's wife.”
“Selena doesn't love you.” Since the first time they met at the party, Selena had never looked at Eros with a warm gaze or admiration. The woman's expression looked more like a depressed person than in love. And Orlando could draw conclusions easily.
Eros. “Don't say as if you've known Selena for so long.”
“I once—accidentally—saved a girl who was locked up in the school shed five years ago, I thought that girl was Selena.” That was why Orlando had once asked Selena, whether they had met before or not. Although it changed drastically, but Orlando was a very observant person.
Eros stunned.
The world is so narrow, right?
But not Eros if the man is unable to change his expression quickly. “Whatever happens I won't let go of Selena.” The man took one step forward to stand right in front of Orlando and raised his chin high. “Enough to here. The exit is there.”
Orlando smiled in anguish. Leisurely the man walked towards the exit. “One thing you need to know, I never mess with my words.”

Eros frowned as he glanced at the car with a foreign license plate number that had just exited the gate of his house. Turning the wheel quickly, he deliberately stopped the car in front of the house. His gaze was immediately fixed on Selena's room.
Feeling confused. Eros hastily opened his seatbelt and slammed the door.
He saw Selena sitting on the balcony and put something in her mouth while looking up at the sky.
Then behind him—
“SELENA!”

“The girl said we shouldn't bother her.” The two servants whispered to each other. One of them seemed to want to knock on the door but again undo his intentions.
“But the Madam has been in the room for too long,” the waiter who did not knock on the door said. “Mrs even missed lunch and this time Madam should not miss her dinner.”
The blonde maid sighed. Seemed to think for a moment, but in the end just nodded resignedly.
“Alright, then knock on the door.”
The black-haired maid directly knocked on the door without hesitation. “Mistress? Sorry for my sassness, but you mustn't miss dinner.”
Silent.
“Mistress?”
The two servants looked at each other.
“Mistress?”
Both of them panicked. “Call Mr Arthur fast!”
The blonde waitress was off the beaten track looking for the three 'headed' man that Lady William trusted.
“Mrs!”
The door was brutally knocked.
“Mrs!”
“What's up?” Arthur came with a breath.
The waiter turned around with a panicked face. “Mistress..dia—“.
Arthur swiftly entered the key and broke down the door.
The two maidservants behind him seemed to instantly shut their mouths with wide eyes upon entering the room.
“Oh Lord..”.
Arthur stumbled. The man immediately approached Lady William who was lying under the bed with a frothy mouth. Then his eyes glanced at the pills scattered around his body.
Not likely.
Lady William could not have ended her own life.
"Come to the doctor!" arthur said as he tried to touch the woman's pulse.
No pulsing. His pulse was not pulsating at all.
"Mrs!" He patted the two cheeks of the woman in his growing unease. "Mrs! I beg!" Arthur sat next to the woman with his legs suddenly limp.
When the maid returned, the man said in a soft voice, "Miss William is no more."
