On the same night.
In a rented apartment, Linda hadn’t taken a shower. She sat on the sofa with a heavy heart.
She had to look for a job... She despised jobs with low salary but couldn’t get one with high salary.
The money she had left now was from Catherine and she felt guilty.
Now, she owed Catherine another 2 million...
Although Catherine had said she didn't need to pay it back, it was a lot of money and Linda felt uncomfortable taking it for granted.
How should she pay her back?
Linda thought for a long while and finally her mind was fixed on the silver case. She remembered the password.
But the box was in the company, she couldn’t get to it.
What if the box was out of the company?
In two days, Spencer would shoot a promotional video for it, and this may be an opportunity.
With an idea in mind, perhaps less depressed, Linda got up and walked into the bathroom.
In another apartment.
There was a splashing sound in the bathroom, Leslie was inside.
The bed was in a mess. Half of the sheets had slipped to the ground. Catherine desperately stared at the ceiling, feeling tired and disgusted. She was naked in bed with her hand grabbing the covers tightly.
By the time Leslie came out, she was already dressed and calmly walked into the bathroom.
Leslie didn’t intend to leave tonight.
He stood at the window with his phone and checked it. A phone call came in and the caller ID was “Nora”. He hung up without thinking.
And Nora didn’t call again...
Because Leslie had just used the bathroom, Catherine felt very disgusted. Even the air smelled dirty to her but there was nothing she could do.
"Cathy... I beg you! Don’t kill me! Please! I am sorry, okay?”
