Chapter 205
Melanie wanted to escape at that moment, but she just stood there instead. Her feet were rooted to the ground, and she could not move. Melanie thought of all possibilities, and her whole body turned cold as she started tremblin.
“Frank,” she whispered his name, seeing that he seemed asleep. She wanted to leave and immediately get out of there. Suddenly, Frank openedl liis eyes abruptly. His eyes shone brightly, just meeting hers.
Melanie did not expect that, so she released a frightened “Ah!” and stepped back.
Seeinglier terrified, panic–stricken face, Frank laughied indifferently. He sat up slowly, swept all the things on the table into the trasli can, and raised his hand to wipe his nose and the corners of his mouth. Then he stood up.
Melanie stepped back when she saw Frank approaching step by step, gradually retreating to
the base of the wall. She had nowhere else to go. “Frank, No!” Seeing him raise his hand, she turned her head away in fright and closed her eyes tightly. However, he just pressed one hand against the wall, imprisoning her between himself and the wall. Then he tilted his head and looked at her, smiling, “What are you afraid of?”
“1–I‘m not afraid,” she said shiveringly.
“Really?” Frank held Melanie‘s chin with one hand and turned her face to look at him. “Open your eyes!”
Frank did not seem to take it seriously at all. He shook his head and said, “Do you think I‘d be afraid if you said anything?”
Melanie was silent because slie knew what he said was true. If Frank were afraid, he would not have done this in front of her. He was simply evil.
“Frank, I‘m willing to do whatever you want me to do, except this.” After thinking about it, she picked it out and said, “Please!”
“Please?” He laughed out loud, “How so?” Frank stopped her suddenly, lield her hand, and said lazily, “All right!”
