Ice and Fire novel Chapter 310

Cherry drove her car at top speed and followed the map to reach her destination in time.

She drove her car into an area off the map and looked around. Remote as it was, the buildings inside looked special, luxurious, and noble.

She pulled over outside the gate and said to the guard, "Sir, excuse me, I'm looking for Mond Xu."

The guard nodded and respectfully said to her, "Come in, please." It seemed that the guard had already taken orders from somebody and was waiting for Cherry.

Cherry paid no attention to his extra respect, and drove her car inside.

Standing in the monitor room and watching the cameras, Mond saw Cherry's car coming in. His heartbeat accelerated, because he knew that he would soon do something crazy.

Cherry pulled over and got out of her car. She then walked around the place, looking for the D Building.

After she went in circles she finally found the D Building, which was located in the most remote area of the neighborhood.

She then walked inside and waited for the elevator.

Mond saw the calm expression on Cherry's face. If the plan went well, she would see him without noticing anything abnormal about him.

His mobile phone rang, and Mond answered it.

"Talk, " said Mond coldly.

"She's waiting for the elevator, " a male voice was heard coming from the other end of the line.

"Go as planned, " he ordered.

"Yes, sir."

The elevator door opened and then Cherry walked inside. She pressed the button for Floor 32.

Mond watched the screen and saw that Cherry still looked calm and quiet. "That's good, " he thought.

All of a sudden, the screen went black, and he couldn't see anything on it anymore.

Mond's heart trembled with excitement and expectation. Cherry had disappeared from the surveillance screen, but she had nowhere to go.

Mond knew better than anybody else that Cherry was trapped inside.

He smiled wryly, turned round, and left the monitor room.

Cherry's body trembled with fear, and she squatted helplessly in a corner. The sudden darkness and the rapid fall of the elevator frightened her nearly to death. She had read news about elevator accidents, but she hadn't expected that she would unfortunately one day actually experience one. She was scared.

Cherry opened her eyes but saw nothing in the dark. Fear engulfed her, and she stretched her hands and fumbled around in her bag for her mobile phone.

After she found it, she immediately unlocked it. The screen lit, and now she could at least see something around her.

Looking around, she saw the elevator was undamaged, but its door was still closed.

Cherry stood up, rushed to the door, and pounded on it with one hand, while with the other she was holding her phone, hoping to light the way. "Hello? Is anyone there?" she screamed. "Help, help!"

She attempted to push the door open, but failed. She had no way to seek for help, or open the elevator door; she was trapped in a building where she had never been before.

It then suddenly occurred to Cherry that she might be able to call someone with her phone. She dialled some numbers, but found that there was no signal at all. She felt desperate, and didn't know what to do anymore.

She sat down on the floor with her mind gone blank, at a loss what to do next.

Mond Xu then walked out of A Building, and a man dressed in an uniform was already waiting for him outside.

He went to him.

"I've done what you told me to do, and all ventilation openings have been blocked and sealed. She will suffocate to death in an hour if nobody will come to her rescue, " said the man.

"If you made any mistake you'll suffer, " said Mond. His body was trembling, but not out of fear, but because of something that seemed unfamiliar. Perhaps it was the excitement of revenge.
