Alice Green almost drowned and was hospitalized. He must be staying with her at the hospital.
But in her heart, there was still a little bit of hope.
Hope that when she opened the door, she would see traces of him having been there.
Hope that he wasn't that concerned about Alice Green.
Such thoughts were laughable.
It was a feeling of self-deception.
Even knowing the whole truth, she still held on to so many unrealistic ideas.
As expected.
As if to make her see reality more clearly, the moment she pushed the door open and entered, the room was deathly quiet, empty, with no sign of life.
Matthew Saxon had not returned.
In every corner of the room, there was no trace of him having returned.
From the time he took Alice Green to the hospital until now, he hadn't been back.
She stood at the door, dazed for a while, then laughed at herself.
The door closed.
As she walked, there was a very slight sound beneath her feet.
