Chapter 611 Killer In The Wardrobe
Rufus'' POV:
I had been too busy today that I didn''t have the time to even drink water. My subordinates even
followed me back to my room so we could continue our discussion.
I was so annoyed that I wanted to smoke a cigarette. However, one of the elders stopped me,
saying smoking wasn''t good for my health. However, he was secretly smoking in a corner.
I was frustrated and pissed off.
When I entered the room, I saw my subordinates sitting in a row. At first, they were only expressing
their opinions one after the other. However,ter, they got into a heated discussion.
I pulled my tie, pretending to be serious as I listened to their conversation.
In fact, Sylvia was all I could think about.
I was indeed angry with her, but most importantly, I didn''t forgive Sylvia immediately because I
wanted her to take me seriously.
My name and status in the family had been witnessing a terrible decline. If things went on this way
and we have a child in the future, I was afraid the situation would only get worse.
Therefore, I decided to hold back my love and longing for her. I couldn''tpromise with her until at
least midnight.
Sylvia had been texting me every half an hour, informing me what she was doing. But all of a
sudden, the messages stopped.
I thought she woulde to me, but she didn''t.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
I nced at my phone again. There was still no new message from her, not even an emoji.
I couldn''t help but wonder if she was angry. It would break my heart if she ignored me likest time.
Cheering her up wasn''t an easy task. However, I seemed to make the same mistake again.
My stomach began to churn with anxiety.
I couldn''t wait to kiss her and tell her how much I loved her. Sylvia''s pitiful face shed in my mind,
and my heart melted into a puddle.
I let out a weary sigh, and my subordinates immediately fell silent.
Only then did I realize I was still in a meeting.
The people in the room were all terrified, thinking they had said something wrong.
I cleared my throat awkwardly. "Go on. What did you just say?"
The room erupted with noises as everyone got into a heated discussion again.
I looked at the clock on the wall, and my desire to meet Sylvia intensified.
Just then, I heard a noise from the wardrobe.
I looked around to check if it was a mouse, but there was nothing around, so I didn''t care.
A few secondster, I heard the sound again. It was the dinging of a bell.
I waved my hand, gesturing for everyone to calm down.
Everyone shut their mouths and waited for me to speak.
Although the noise had disappeared, I realized someone hade to my room when I wasn''t
present.
The bed sheet and quilt were wrinkled. It was obvious someone had moved them.
I immediately realized someone had sneaked in, so I stood up and looked at my subordinates,
gesturing that someone was in the wardrobe.
I assumed it was an assassin. I thought I could live in peace for the time being at the border and
didn''t expect to encounter the same trouble over and over again. I wasn''t really surprised though.
I sneered and walked toward the wardrobe.
My men understood what I meant and immediately followed me, ready to attack, as they gradually
walked toward the wardrobe.
I shifted my stance and stared at the wardrobe coldly. Then, I grabbed the handle and yanked the
door open. However, my mind went nk, and my body froze when I saw what was inside.
Fortunately, my hand reacted faster than my brain. I mmed the door shut and pressed myself
against it.
''Damn it! What the hell!''
