But all I wanted to do was to leave. Especially at night, when I went to sleep, I could see Xenia’s eyes staring at me, looking extremely terrifying. For me, these days were like a nightmare. Every time, I felt fear and dread.
Finally, since I made no moves for the past few days, Stanley relaxed a little.
“Selene, I’m going out for a while, you stay at home and wait for me!” Stanley said as he looked at me.
Hearing his words, I behaved extra obediently and quickly replied, “Stanley, you'd better go now!” Don’t worry, I’ll definitely wait for you at home!”
My words made Stanley finally feel at ease and he hurriedly left after that.
But as I watched his back while leaving, my heart was already panicking. Because when Stanley left, I even saw Xenia make a turn and smile at me. That smile looked especially sinister, which made me feel even more scared.
I pretended not to see her smile, but kept smiling as I watched Stanley leave, even obediently waving my hand at him.
Seeing my action, Stanley relaxed again and then hurried away.
The moment he left, I immediately packed everything and rushed back to my hometown as fast as possible.
