Chapter 1464 Waited For A Long Time
“Continue patrolling. I’ll head upstairs to take a look.”
Realizing that something was amiss, Marino rushed upstairs to check things out.
The villa was completely silent. Everything seemed normal, but there was an indescribable sense of eeriness looming in the air.
Marino scanned his surroundings warily but did not discover anything, so he rushed upstairs and lightly knocked on Zachary’s door.
Ben opened the door and asked, “What’s going on?”
“Ben, where’s Mr. Nacht?” asked Marino.
“He fell asleep.” Ben asked softly, “What exactly is going on?”
“Has Mr. Nacht been sleeping all this while? He didn’t go downstairs?” Marino’s eyes widened.
“Of course!” Ben frowned.
“That’s weird…” Marino became more uneasy. “Connor mentioned that he saw Mr. Nacht in the garden just now. Apparently, Mr. Nacht appeared beside the swimming pool, and he moved agilely…”
“When did that happen?” Ben was utterly confused.
“Just now! Around a few minutes ago.”
Marino peeked into the room. Underneath the dim light, he could vaguely see Zachary lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.
“How is that possible?” questioned Ben softly. “Mr. Nacht returned to the room at eleven tonight and has been asleep all along. How can he possibly appear in the garden?”
“I find it weird too.” Marino asked anxiously, “Do you think that someone has sneaked in here?”
“Turn on the lights and search the place,” instructed Ben. “I’ll inform Bruce to send our men back here.”
“Okay.” Marino was about to turn on the lights, and Ben was about to make the call when a loud crash sounded downstairs.
An explosion suddenly erupted in the kitchen, sending random objects flying everywhere. Not only was the sound deafening, but it also caused the entire villa to tremble vigorously.
At the same time, a blazing fire spread out from the kitchen, flaring in all directions and engulfing the dining room and living room rapidly.
“Alert everyone! Now!” Ben ordered at once.
“Yes!” Marino immediately dashed downstairs to gather everyone.
