Chapter 666 Where Is She Going?
Steven stood by the window, gazing at the snowstorm outside. His eyes were filled with loneliness and deep contemplation.
In the middle of the night, Diana's phone began to vibrate continuously.
Woken up by the noise, she groggily wondered, "Who's calling me this late on such a cold night?"
She was drowsy and unwilling to leave the warmth of her cozy bed, enjoying the winter comfort.
But the persistent ringing pulled her out of her slumber. Rubbing her eyes, she reached for her phone and answered the call.
"Hello?" she mumbled.
"Diana, it's me. I'm sorry to bother you so late, but something's happened with Cecil. He's locked himself in his room, shouting and making a scene. We can't get the door open, and he keeps demanding to see you."
Diana froze for a moment, trying to make sense of it.
"What on earth is going on with Cecil in the middle of the night?" she thought.
She glanced at the calendar beside her bed—November 27th.
A chill ran down her spine as she recalled the past. In her previous life, Cecil had died in November, and his body wasn't discovered until days later. His exact date of death was around this time.
Something was definitely wrong. "Madam Farley, please hold on. I'm coming right away," Diana replied, fully awake now.
She hung up and quickly got out of bed to get dressed.
Knowing the urgency, she rushed to her wardrobe and put on warm clothes, grabbed her phone, and headed out.
As she opened her bedroom door, she realized she didn't have a car.
Then she remembered that Steven's garage was likely stocked with vehicles.
Diana hurried downstairs to find the car keys. Sure enough, she saw a set of keys on the entryway table.
She grabbed them and headed out the door. Steven, who hadn't slept all night, watched as she anxiously ran toward the garage. He frowned, wondering, "Where is she going at this hour?"
Steven quickly dressed and followed her outside.
