More than four hours passed with no reply. She froze when she heard a light knock on the door.
Lillian had not ordered room service yet. She had already told her friend not to visit her room. She blinked at the phone in her hand.
'Was it a mistake to contact him? Did someone get his phone and track my location?'
She had read about this scenario in a lot of novels and it somehow scared her that it might happen to her. Even Rei had warned her about such things.
'I was such an idiot. Why didn't I think it through before opening the damned phone?' Lillian pulled at her hair.
There was another knock. She tiptoed to the door. That was when she heard his voice.
"Dear wife, it's me."
Lillian froze in fear and shock. It was her husband's voice! She wondered if he had really died and his spirit couldn't leave peacefully and he was trying to scare her now. Perhaps he suddenly realized that he wanted to bring his wife along.
