Alina never expected that on her very first day back in Enkmelo, she'd bump into Johnny in an elevator of all places. It was such a tight spot.
A wave of familiarity washed over her, leaving Alina's face pale. After all, she once loved Johnny to the core. She held onto every memory of him, thinking of him every night, whether falling asleep or waking from dreams. His memory kept haunting her.
Alina glanced at Johnny once more, and he picked up on it keenly. To him, Alina was no different from those women whose eyes couldn't leave him alone.
Impatiently, he said, "Get her out."
"What? Do you own this elevator? I'm going up!" Alina insisted. George mentioned Danny was around, and she had to take Danny with her.
Johnny, noticing Alina's earlier intention to leave the elevator and then suddenly wanting to go up after seeing him, formed a poor opinion of her. His face grew colder.
Alina's heart was racing, but when she saw Johnny put on sunglasses, she realized he probably didn't recognize her. She breathed a sigh of relief.
Despite sharing a bed once, they were strangers now. Plus, her appearance had changed drastically. The odds of Johnny recognizing her were slim.
In these years, even though Alina didn't keep tabs on Johnny, she stumbled upon news about him online, especially the gossip with Barbara.
"Mr. Sutton, we've checked. there's no trace of Night. It's likely Night hasn't shown up," one of Johnny's underlings reported inside the elevator.
Hearing her name, Alina understood why Johnny was there. She cursed inwardly, 'This disgusting bastard! He actually wants me to help his little fling with medical stuff! I'm absolutely not going to do it. Let him give up!'
"Tonight, we've got to find her. Once we do, even if we have to resort to tying her up, she's coming back with me!" Johnny's voice was frigid, utterly heartless.
