Knock, knock, knock!
Praewa jolted, clutching the blanket tightly around her body as the sound of knocking on the bedroom door echoed. Cold sweat seeped down her face, guessing that the person knocking was likely Onyx. She had left him in suspense earlier, and the power-crazed man might come to confront her further.
"Miss Praewa, are you inside?"
"Oh, Mr. Taipei?" she murmured softly, not expecting Onyx's subordinate to be on the other side of the door.
She opened the door slightly ajar, and her face peeked through the gap with caution. Relieved not to see any sign of the menacing boss, she opened the door wider.
"What is it?"
"The boss ordered me to take you to meet him at the mall this evening."
"The mall! You're taking me there?" she exclaimed in disbelief, pointing at herself.
