Chapter 8 It's None Of Your Business

What's more, what Bill and Terri said didn't work at all. All she was thinking about was how to get in touch with John.

She looked up at the clock above her head and found that it was nine o'clock. There was not much time left for the wedding to begin. She became anxious at once.

She lifted the quilt and turned on the computer with bare feet, but she couldn't get on the net no matter how hard she tried. She reached to the back of the desktop and found that there was no cable at all.

She found the tablet computer and tried to connect it to the wireless network. However, it was useless.

And her phone had already disappeared.

"This is going too far!" She complained and threw herself onto the bed. "It's a premeditated plan!"

She collapsed on the bed, racking her brain, and she placed the last hope on the fixed phone on the night table.

In fact, she didn't expect much from it now. But when she saw that the phone line is still connected, a glimmer of hope flashed through her heart.

She picked up the phone and dialed John's number. During the few seconds before the line was connected, Euralia felt her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

"Hello..."

The phone was finally picked up, but the voice from the other end of the line made her heart sink thoroughly.

"Euralia?" Bill's low voice passed through the phone, and he sounds so cold.

She asked dejectedly, "Bill, when will you set me free?"

His voice was colder than before. "I didn't lock you up. I just want you to take good care of yourself. When you get better, you can go out at any time."

"You are a liar. You just want me to give up, and you want to imprison me in the house," said Euralia, biting her lips.

On the other side of the phone, Bill ignored her accusation and said coldly, "Have a rest."

His attitude totally irritated Euralia. She yelled, "Let me out!"

"Do you want to see John?"

"I..."

"Don't even think about it. I've cut off all the contacts you have, and you can't go anywhere but stay at home."

Hearing that Bill finally exposed his intention, Euralia became even more unscrupulous, "I'm telling you, if you don't let me go, I'll... I will..."

"What will you do?" "Crying and arguing over something?" Bill laughed.

Upon hearing that, Euralia immediately kept silent.

Yeah. What else could she do...

"Euralia, don't run out of my patience!" After saying that, Bill hung up the phone directly.

Listening to the busy tone from the phone, Euralia widened her eyes in disbelief.

How could he hang up on her!

"Miss Euralia, are you awake?" At this moment, the voice of a servant came from the door.

Euralia covered herself with the quilt quickly and pretended to be asleep.

"Give it to me." The voice of Bill came through again. It seemed unreal as the door was between them.

The door was opened and a steady sound of footsteps approached.

"What? You fell asleep so soon after you just warned me?" It was hard to tell whether Bill was angry or not from his voice.

Still, Euralia didn't utter a word, burying herself into the thick quilt, without any response.

Instead of getting angry, Bill said in a calm tone, "It's time for you to take your medicine. Take it before you go to sleep."

"..."

He lifted her quilt and said, "Good girl, you will be suffocated by this."

It was until then that Euralia said in a reluctant voice, "Leave me alone."

"Who else would take care of you if I didn't?" Bill's words made Euralia feel sad all of a sudden. Her chest heaved a few times. "It's none of your business."
