The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 294

[Under my relentless pounding, there was finally some movement inside.]

[She came to open the door, wearing a tight red dress that showed off her stunning curves.]

[But she reeked of alcohol, acting completely unhinged like a lunatic.]

[Seeing me standing outside, she looked confused and slurred, "Who are you looking for?"]

[I said, "You guys are way too loud. Could you please keep it down?"]

[Her brain was probably too pickled by alcohol to process it immediately. After staring blankly for a long time, she scoffed. "If you hate the noise, go buy a mansion. Why squeeze into an apartment with the rest of us?"]

[I was furious, but I knew better than to argue with a drunk. Clinging to my last shred of patience, I tried to reason with her.]

[But she refused to listen and even started screaming insults at me.]

[I don't remember exactly how it happened.]

[Maybe it was when she shrieked, 'Did your mom die, is that why you have no manners and love eavesdropping?' Or maybe it was her sneering, 'I wouldn't even look twice at a loser like you.' Either way, I snapped.]

[A suffocating wave of blinding rage took over.]

[I grabbed a heavy decorative piece off the table, and just as she turned away in disgust, I smashed it brutally into the back of her head.]

[Once.]

[And again.]

[The explosive spray of crimson red was almost blinding.]

[A sharp pain pierced my eyes, and when I blinked them open, I realized it was all just a dream.]

["Dreaming again," I muttered. Hearing the familiar arguing through the walls, I got up and prepared to start today's writing.]

Gasps echoed through the room.

Inside the spacious conference room, the sharp intake of breath snapped everyone out of their trance.

"This novel... it's seriously messed up."

"You can say that again..."

Nora rubbed her arms, feeling an eerie chill seeping into her bones.

"We need to investigate the details of this case from multiple angles."
