Chapter 1193 The Last Straw
After returning to the apartment, Lucy was shocked when she stepped out of the elevator and saw her suitcase lying in the corridor.
“W-What’s going on here?” she asked with her eyes wide.
Why is my suitcase outside? Did someone break into my place and take it out?
Lucy felt her heart racing at the thought of that, and a trace of fear flashed past her eyes.
She then tightened her grip on her handbag and slowly made her way toward the door that was left open.
A middle-aged woman’s voice could be heard coming from inside. “Thank you, Mr. Campbell!”
“No problem, we’re only doing what we should. I’ll be taking my leave now.” A man’s voice was heard replying to the middle-aged woman.
Silas! He must’ve found out about the break-ins here and came over to help out!
Lucy recognized his voice instantly and placed her handbag down in relief.
The next thing she knew, Silas stepped out of her apartment unit with a briefcase in hand. He was a little surprised to see Lucy outside but quickly flashed her a smile and said, “Ah, Ms. Rivers! You came right on time! There’s something I need to talk to you about. You see—”
Lucy cut him off excitedly, “Did you catch the thief, Mr. Campbell?”
Silas arched an eyebrow at her. “Thief? What thief?”
“The thief that broke into my apartment unit. He even left my suitcase in the corridor! What an a*shole!” Lucy exclaimed angrily with her fists clenched.
