Megan spat at Anderson upon seeing that. She stepped forward and got into the elevator that had just arrived. She never hesitated to press the button that would help take her to the top floor.
“B*tch, you...”
Anderson reacted quickly and cussed aloud. He chased after her and was about to reach her when the elevator's door closed.
Megan wasn't sure she was safe until she saw the display telling her that the elevator was moving upward. Still traumatized, she leaned against the cold walls of the elevator as her heart thumped wildly.
That was close. I almost got...Still, why was Anderson there? He sounded like he had anticipated and knew that Jonas would leave me
there.
Megan couldn't figure anything out. She crouched down in the corner and massaged her head. That was when she realized that her mind had slowed down, and her chilly body started feeling hot.
What is going on?
She didn't have the opportunity to figure it out because the elevator door opened. She looked ahead and saw that she was already on the top floor.
“I feel so hot,” murmured Megan as she frowned and took off her coat. Her throat was even drier than it previously was.
She walked out of the elevator and strolled down the corridor aimlessly. All the while, her face was burning so red that she looked scary.
She suddenly felt summoned and turned around to see a crimson red door at the end of a red carpet. The exquisite chandelier hung from the ceiling, and a sense of elegance ambushed her.
This place... I feel like I've been here before...
Standing in the middle of the corridor, her burning mind suddenly painted a picture of a man holding a woman. They walked steadily and surely to the second last room at the end of the corridor.
Megan was stunned. She felt as if her blood had frozen over when she recalled the place was the last memory she had before she lost her virginity in her past life.
C-could it be that my grief from my past life had prompted me to be here? Will I finally learn the truth now?
