Just then, he heard a piercing shriek.
“Let go of me! Let go!”
Matthew dashed upstairs immediately. That’s Elizabeth’s voice! In the end, I still underestimated the other party. I
thought the attacker was working alone, but it turns out that that isn’t the case!
Upon rushing into the bedroom on the second floor, he saw Elizabeth being held at gunpoint by a masked man.

“Hurry up and leave! Don’t bother about me. Just go…”
