Tracey took a shower in a light mood. Maybe because Adam grew up here, she felt curious about every corner of this house.
She buried herself deep into the quilt and sent Adam a message, "Adam, are you sleeping?"
She was soon applied, "Not yet, what about you? If you don't like the bed, I'll take you home." Adam was always so considerate.
"Don't worry, I like it. I'm just a little excited to live in the place where you grew up." Tracey said and rolled on the bed.
"Silly, sleep early. You have to work tomorrow." When imaging Tracey rolled on the bed, Adam smiled gently.
"Okay, good night Adam." Tracey began to sleep after setting up the alarm clock.
Since successfully driving Carmen and Renee out, Tracey had slept soundly every night. So, she fell into dream soon.
The entire house was covered by silence and darkness, suddenly, key clicking sounded. It was heard particularly clear at such a night.
Tracey soon woke up by the sound. Was he
Adam? Why did he come at this time?
When Tracey was thinking, the door opened. She stared at it, finding that the small figure appearing there was not Adam.
Because of the dim environment, Tracey couldn't identify the comer. But she turned extremely frightened, who will this person be?
She hurriedly turned on the light. Under the brightness, she finally saw clearly that it was Old Mrs. Sheng.
She was hunchbacked and had a wrinkle-covered face. She murmured, "Give me the bracelet... give me the bracelet,” while holding a cleaver in her hand.
It was an extremely horrible picture. It must because she didn’t rob Tracey's bracelet last night, so she came again, wanting to cut her hands off and take the bracelet away.
Tracey was scared. Fortunately, because Adam was not here, she would not fall into a too- deep sleep. Otherwise, she might have lost her hand.
Without thinking carefully, Tracey jumped out of the bed. She could run fast to escape, but the terrible thing was, she didn't have a weapon.
So, she could be easily hurt by the old woman' s cleaver. She already had a long wound on the palm, if her hand was cut off, the pain may make Tracey dead.
Although Old Mrs. Sheng was old, she was a very stubborn woman. She may not care about the consequence, as long as she could get the bracelet.
"Calm down, madam, you want the bracelet, don't you? I'll give it to you." Tracey had to comfort her first. In fact, it was just a bracelet, Tracey would absolutely not risk her life for protecting it.
"The bracelet, the bracelet!" The old woman's eyes lit up when she heard Tracey's words.
"Just stay where you are. I'll take off the bracelet and give it to you now, okay?" Tracey kept comforting her.
Her words did prevent Old Mrs. Sheng from walking forward. Tracey's heart beat fast, and her whole body was fully covered by the cold sweats.
She tried to take the bracelet off. However, strangely, the more strength she used to take it off, the steadier the bracelet stayed on Tracey's wrist.
"D*mn it, why you don't move?! She was a little angry, her movement also became irritable.
After waiting for a while, the old woman still not getting the bracelet. "You don't want to give it to me at all! I'll get it myself." Then she moved forward to Tracey with her cleaver.
"Old Madam, wait a minute. It's not I don't want to give it to you, it's because.Jt is a little hard to take off. I'll wash my hand with the soap, it will be quick."
