It was clearly not the case.
The weather was scorching hot. Despite the short distance from the gate to my house, I ended up
sweating profusely and was feeling sticky and ufortable all over. After cing my luggage, I
headed straight to the bathroom for a shower.
I felt much better and was feelingzy after the shower. I had nned to continue my work at Crystal
House, but after a busy morning, I felt really tired and didn''t feel like doing anything. I decided to take a
nap instead.
A refreshing shower and taking a nap in afortable air-conditioned room was indeed a great
pleasure in life.
I ended up coaxing myself to sleep.
I might have slept until dusk if it weren''t for the ring of my phone.
Andrew''s nervous and panicked voice came through as soon as I answered the call. I could feel his
panic even through the phone. "Luna, can youe over? Queenie''s bleeding. There''s a lot of blood.
She passed out. What should we do?"
What? I jolted upright in shock, covering my rapidly beating heart.
"Where is she bleeding from? Did she suffer any injuries? Andrew, exin it clearly. Where are you
guys? Where can I find you? By the way, have you called 911?"
Hearing that something had happened to Queenie, my sleepiness vanished instantly. I hurriedly got out
of bed and changed into a set of sportswear. was struggling to get dressed as I was trembling.
"At thepany, we''re still at thepany. I''ve called 911, but there''s a traffic jam. It might take a
while for them to arrive." Andrew''s voice trembled, making my scalp tingle.
Traffic jams always seemed to happen at the worst times.
"I''ming right now. Keep in touch." I picked up my bag, grabbed my phone, and dashed out.
The scorching sun was still hanging overhead. By the time I ran to the gate, I was covered in sweat.
But I couldn''t care less. Queenie was in trouble, and I was so anxious that I couldn''t even think about
my appearance.
It wasn''t a good time to call a taxi. I could only run recklessly on the road, attracting the attention of
many pedestrians along the way.

They were probably wondering where this madwoman came from. I was running like a crazy person
with disheveled hair. I didn''t look anything like a young woman.
They could think whatever they wanted. There was no time to bother with them.
My mind was racing as I ran. I was thinking of the various reasons and causes of her injury, praying in
fear that she would be okay. Otherwise, I''d be devastated.
In front of thepany, a young woman with a high ponytail was waiting there. Seeing me, she asked
if my name was Luna. After confirmation, she didn''t have time to say much. She grabbed my hand and
ran into the building. "Luna, hurry up. I''ll bring you to Queenie."
"She''s in that room." The young woman pointed to a room with a sign that said "Break Room."
I quickly ran over to the room. What I saw scared me so much that I lost my senses. My skin, which
had been scorched outside, immediately turned cold. My whole body was trembling, and my legs
almost gave way.
Queenie was still wearing the white dress she had on at noon. But she was lying unconscious in a pool
of blood, her face as pale as a ghost. Andrew was holding her head and calling out to her continuously,
"Queenie, wake up!"
But her eyes were tightly shut. She didn''t show any signs of response.
The bright young man had his cheek against Queenie''s forehead while tears streamed down his face.
"Queenie, what happened to you?" I screamed in horror, my legs finally giving way as I stumbled and
fell forward.
I had never seen such a scene in my life before. There was so much blood, dyeing everything red. It
was blinding, and I was trembling in fear.
