Alina once again sat up from the bed in shock, her heart heaving so much that her body was already drenched in sweat.
The moment she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with the nightmare she had.
"Grandpa!" With a soft murmur, she got off the bed and the moment her feet touched the ground, she fell.
In the dream, her white-haired grandfather was covered in blood.
She tried like mad to go up and hug Grandpa, yet no matter how hard she tried, she was never able to run to the old man.
She was scared.
Now her heart was even more panicked, blank with nothing left but Grandpa.
The maid outside heard the commotion and pushed the door in, "Miss, why are you on the floor again? Dr. Khalid said you can't move around now."
Seeing Alina fall to the floor, the maid went forward to help Alina up from the floor and then returned her to the bed.
Turning around, she wanted to go and pour a glass of water for Alina, but she was grabbed by Alina.
"I want to see your master, now!" Alina's voice trembled, she couldn't wait any longer.
The maid saw the panic in Alina's eyes and carefully covered her with the blanket, "You had a nightmare gain, right? The dream is all fake, don't take it to heart, what you need to do now is to rest well and listen to Dr. Khalid."
"Please!" Alina grabbed the maid's hand, and at this moment the force was heavier.
The maid was helpless to see her in this state, "Then I'll go ask the butler, okay?"
"Go now."
Alina couldn't care about anything else.
She had to get out of here, for sure.
The maid left and came back soon, bringing back the same news as before, "The butler said that master will naturally see you in a few days, and that you should rest well now."
When Alina heard this answer, her heart sank to the bottom.
She could guess what exactly it was like in Shirling.
She had been over here for almost two months, her family would be anxious.
Thinking of the torment and pain that Grandpa would feel when he knew she was missing, Alina's heart gripped together even more.
She lifted the blanket while running down from the bed.
She was weak, yet she was trying desperately.
With great effort, she braced herself and ran towards the door, while the maid was shocked to see this.
"Miss, what are you doing? Stop it."
"Let go of me." Alina flung away the maid's hand as soon as she opened the door and ran out.
She didn't know exactly what the person who saved her looked like, but now she had to get in touch with someone from the outside world.
Even if she couldn't leave this island now, she must get in touch with Andre.
The butler was delivering information to Lincol, and he saw Alina scurrying through every room like a madman.
The maid followed anxiously behind her, and the butler immediately went forward and asked seriously, "What's going on?"
Seeing the butler, the maid looked as if she had seen a saviour.
Looking at Alina again, she uttered, "Miss Hughes wants to see master."
The butler looked at his watch.
It was time for Lincol's immediate video conference, so he couldn't just let Alina make a scene like this.
"Miss Hughes!" The tone of the butler's voice was more serious at this moment.
