Chapter 1352 This Woman Has the Nerves of Steel
Kelvin had goosebumps all over his skin. He rubbed his arms as he came up to Kisa, frowning at her.” What’s wrong with you again? It is dark, and the courtyard is already eerie enough. You scared the hell out of me by shouting like that.”
“No. I just saw what looked like a glimpse of a person under this lamppost.”
It scared the daylights out of Kelvin. “Stop scaring me. How could there be anyone here?” Kelvin said, glancing around.
Besides the two of them, there was no one around. They had come from Vivian’s place, which was a bit far from the main building. There were many winding paths leading to various corners of the courtyard in between these two places. The spot they were at now was the most remote, most eerie, and most tree- lined section of the path.
But Kisa was sure she had really gotten a glimpse of someone under the streetlight and that someone must be hiding in the wood. Thinking about the eerie, malicious eyes that she felt every time previously, a thought came to her mind, and she said to Kelvin, “Can you go behind those trees and see if there is anyone there?”
“I’m not going.” Kelvin refused at once. It was pitch black and scary in there, and there could be some monsters hiding in the dark. He wrapped his arms around himself, as the more he thought about it, the more terrified he felt.
“Come on Kisa. Gilbert is waiting for you in the room,” Kelvin said, reaching to tug on her coat.
But Kisa had questions. She knew she would regret it if she did not find out what it was. “You wait here. I’ll go in there and take a look.”
With that, she turned on her phone’s flashlight and walked into the wood.
Kelvin watched on and was speechless by how gutsy Kisa was but was also worried that if something happened to her, Gilbert would come after him. He sighed helplessly and reluctantly followed her.
