Deviating from her routine of the past few days, Evelyn left her room. Apart from mealtimes, she had
stepped out for the first time.
"Miss Wrenn." The staff approached her as soon as she stepped out.
"I thought I had my freedom of coming in and out. Walk with me to the gates as I need some fresh air,"
she requested as she grew weary of constant surveillance.
However, the staff was taken aback by her sudden change in demeanor. Her attitude toward them had
been consistently pleasant until now, making this behavior shift even more perplexing. After a
momentary pause, the staff responded dazedly, "Sure."
Then, Evelyn strode forward without uttering a word, and the staff trailed along in quiet bewilderment.
However, amidst this, a pressing concern occupied the staff's mind. While Miss Wrenn does have the
liberty to move about, protocol stipulates notifying the person in charge. I couldn't bear the weight of
responsibility if anything happened to her.
Stepping out into the open air, she inhaled deeply as she savored the sweet taste of newfound
freedom. After hailing a cab, she swiftly departed from the research center. At this moment, her phone
buzzed with a concise message. 'Arrange for Nicole to meet me at our last meeting spot. Just come up
with an excuse.' Then, she muttered to herself, pondering momentarily before dialing the number.
"Nicole, it's Evelyn," she said.
Meanwhile, Nicole wasted no time following the call. She swiftly got dressed and readied herself to
depart. Just as she was about to step out, she ran into Roxanna, who was looking for her.
"Nicole, where are you rushing off to?" Roxanna asked, puzzled by her urgency.
Nicole quickly glanced at her reflection as she instinctively adjusted her attire. "I plan to visit Colton. Is
there something you need, Roxanna?" she asked as she marveled at her ability to lie so effortlessly.
"Oh, Evelyn just went out. Not sure where she's off to. I guess she's using the freedom she's been
given," Roxanna hypothesized before recalling her initial purpose of visiting. "I'm worried she might be
up to something."
Nicole's thoughts drifted briefly as she recollected her conversation with Evelyn on the phone earlier. I'll
let you know the underlying cause of Colton's voodoo and a complete treatment method. You wouldn't
want to see him distressed by this matter daily, would you?
"Nicole?" Roxanna's voice broke through her reverie.
Shaking off her distraction, Nicole replied composedly, "Don't worry about it. Let her be. It's not our
concern if something happens."
Roxanna nodded as if comprehending, yet she watched Nicole leave in silence. An unsettling feeling
gnawed at her, hinting that something was amiss; otherwise, Nicole wouldn't have been so absent-
minded.
Following Evelyn's directives, Nicole arrived at the specified location. Her gaze fixed upon the
signboard, and a realization dawned upon her—the shop was conveniently situated close to Colton's
company. Is this purely coincidental?
