On the top floor of the Lins Building.
Sylvia looked at the darkness in front of her. The vase that broke moments ago was enough to make her panic.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the sky had completely darkened, and the whole building was empty.
Sylvia didn't remember how long she had not worked overtime until this late. Although she was very enthusiastic in her work, she was not very interested in working overtime. The reason was simple. She was afraid of the dark!
She didn't know when she got this problem. The darkness would make her scared, and even when she slept, she would turn on the bedside lamp.
Today was an exception. The project of the four hospitals was of utmost importance to the Lins Group. When she was busy, she forgot the time. It was not until the office lights went out that she realized that it was already dark.
The sudden darkness made Sylvia panic. She pressed the switch a few times, and the originally bright chandelier did not respond at all. She then remembered that today secretary Lee told her that at nine o'clock in the evening, the whole CBD should be checked on the equipment, and all the power would be cut off.
The entire building was empty. Sylvia walked out, and her high heels clicked on the ground. The sound spread out and came back from the end of the corridor, which made her heart beat faster.
The black corridor in front of her seemed to have no end, and it led to the abyss.
Sylvia's heart beat fast. Her cell phone was completely out of power and was completely turned off, so it couldn't give her any light.
Sylvia held the wall with her little hands and walked slowly forward. The elevator was completely powered off, so she couldn't use it. She could only use the stairs.
When she opened the fire door of the stairs, a wet smell came to her face. The huge echo came to her ear, which scared her so much that her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
Even if she was a big man, she would be afraid when walking alone in the dark building, let alone mentioning a person, especially a woman who was afraid of the dark.
She looked at the dark stairs in front of her. Her legs seemed to be filled with lead and she did not dare to go down. In the darkness, it seemed that something terrible would appear at any time.
Sylvia took several deep breaths, plucked up her courage and walked toward the stairs.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from behind her.
She screamed and suddenly looked back. It turned out that the fire door she just opened was closed. Sylvia felt that her heart was going to jump out of her throat.
It was dark all around. Her body was trembling unconsciously. The humid environment and the high heels under her feet made her feel insecure.
Sylvia held the stairs with her little hands and walked down step by step. A cool breeze came from behind her, which made her shiver. If she could see clearly, she would find that her face was pale. She was really scared and dared not look back. She could only let the cold wind blow on her back. She felt that she was going to break down in the darkness. Every time the high-heeled shoes under her feet touched the ground, they would make a "squeaky" sound, echoing in the corridor.
The broom at the foot of the wall, like a strange villain, waved his hands at Sylvia.
Her eyes were wet unconsciously, and her heart was in her throat all the time. She never felt helpless like she was now.
All of a sudden, a beam of light appeared in front of her eyes, and the black shadow extended from the light and disappeared into the darkness again.
Sylvia screamed again, turned her head, and ran upstairs.
"President Lin?" Henry's magnetic voice rang out.
His voice, like the light shining with a yellow halo in the Lonely Sea, surrounded Sylvia like a warm ball.
