Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1447

The numbers on the screen never moved, too.

Sean sat on the floor as he applied ointment on his wounds. He did as Lucas told him, and did something to Diana’s phone signal.

He did it in cooperation with the professor, to remind Julian to take care of his wife.

However, Sean had thought about it. Lucas was an outsider, after all. His words couldn’t be entirely trusted. Therefore, he decided to play some tricks of his own, like causing some commonly-seen faults in the hotel, including stopping an elevator from operating.

Her stomach felt much better, and the sense of urgency had eased by much.

Diana stood up and walked to the elevator. After confirming that there was no sign indicating an elevator fault, she lifted her hand and pressed the button.

She pressed the button for the first floor.

But right now, the lobby was empty except for one person seated at the reception, who was dozing off.

This didn’t look normal.

Diana walked toward the receptionist. “Hello.”
