Chapter 96: Are you Roxane?
– The door seemed blocked. I’ll call someone to open it, Professor Watson said before taking out his phone. After a moment he said:
-Why is there no signal? There was still a signal before that…
Roxane, who was curled up in her sleeping bag, raised her hand and covered her lips as she coughed again. A contemplative expression could be seen on his face at this moment. After that, she also took out her phone to check the signal. In fact, there was no longer any mobile coverage in the room. Strangely, she couldn’t even connect to the Wi-Fi. She looked around and discovered that there was no phone in the room either. This meant that she and Professor Watson were trapped in the room.
Professor Watson turned to look at the listless Roxane and said reassuringly:
– Don’t worry. The others will look for us when they realize we are missing…
She hummed lightly and looked down. She said to herself:
“No, even if they look for you, they won’t come to my room. After tonight, we will definitely be labeled as scum…”
Professor Watson tried to knock on the door and shouted loudly, hoping that someone passing by might hear them. Alas, he called until his voice was hoarse, but there was still no answer.
Roxane raised her hands to rub her temples, saying in a hoarse voice:
– Master Watson, it’s useless. Why don’t you sit down and rest for a while.
He turned around with a defeated expression on his face. He walked over to the chair and sat down at the table before pouring himself a glass of water.
Roxane forced herself to sit down. She looked at the teacher she respected before saying, enduring the pain in her throat:
“Professor Watson, I heard you have a fiancee.
He stopped drinking from the glass of water in his hand and said with a nod:
– She’s a dance teacher.
Roxane pursed her lips before saying:
– What a coincidence. I have a friend who studies dance too…
‘Well, let’s just say he’s a friend for now…’
Professor Watson smiled.
– Is it true? Although there are many dance studios in M City, I wonder if your friend is one of my fiancee’s students.
– Maybe… replied Roxane before coughing again.
Professor Watson frowned. He wanted to go to the bedside, but after a moment he dismissed the idea. Instead he only said:
– You don’t feel well, so quickly lie down and rest.
She nodded slowly before lying down on the bed. She looked at him and said:
– Master Watson, you are a very good teacher.
– THANKS.
Roxane’s eyelids continued to droop. After taking the medicine, she felt very sleepy. In less than five minutes, she fell asleep.
…
The next day.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Roxane was awakened by loud knocks on her door. It was violent and energetic. She had just opened her eyes when the door was kicked open.
A group of people rushed into the small room. They looked at Roxane with disdain and contempt.
An elegant woman in a royal blue coat entered. Her face was exquisite and her long hair fell softly over her shoulders. Another person was standing behind her and Roxane recognized the other person. It was none other than Mina.
The blue-clad woman looked at Roxane with a calm expression, but her dark eyes had already revealed her anger. She asked:
– Are you Roxane Alvarez?
She sat down. She didn’t take off her sweater when she slept yesterday, but it was still cold. She put the down jacket next to her when she coughed from the itching in her throat. When she stopped coughing, she nodded and said slowly:
– I’m Roxane Alvarez. You are…
The woman sneered and said through gritted teeth
