She had just awoken from a nightmare in which Millie appeared, wanting to take her life.
Joanna felt uneasy and rubbed her forehead. Then, she sent a message to Winston. âWin, are you asleep?â
Winston didnât reply to Joannaâs text. She felt uneasy and got out of bed. She poured a glass of water, but before she could drink it, someone knocked on the door.
Joanna turned around and asked, âWho is it?â
She wondered if it was the nurse. Perhaps she had knocked on her door because she saw the light in her room. However, when Joanna asked, no one answered. The person just kept knocking continuously.
Joanna frowned. She approached the door and peered through the glass. Suddenly, a womanâs face appeared. She was startled and took a few steps back.
The door to the ward was pushed open in an instant, and suddenly, the lights went out, leaving the room in total darkness. Only a faint light from the window illuminated the space.
As Joanna looked up, she could see the personâs face clearly.
It was Millie! How could it be Millie?
Joannaâs eyes widened in disbelief. Millieâs face was pale, and her hair and clothes were drenched. She looked utterly terrible. Her entire body was wet.
As Joanna raised her hand, she realized that water was dripping from Millieâs body.
She was shocked and stood frozen in place. She clenched her fists and heard Millie say in a hollow voice. âJoanna, return my life to me. Joanna, you hurt me so much. Joanna, why did you harm me?â
Millie reached out and charged forward to grab Joanna by the neck.
âNo, I didnât hurt you!â Joannaâs voice suddenly trembled, and she felt as if she couldnât breathe.
Millie watched Joanna, who was trembling and on the verge of tears. She couldnât help but

smile briefly.
She could barely contain her outburst. âNo? Then why am I dead? You knew very well that water was my greatest fear!â
Joanna shuddered suddenly. She couldnât bring herself to look at Millie. âI have no idea youâre afraid of water. Millie, I didnât kill your
Millie stopped responding and repeated âRetum.my life to me!â
Joanna felt a sudden chill in her palms, and she fainted shortly after.
The light in the ward ficced on. Manin entered through the door and made his way to stand beside Millie.
Millie was still gripping Joannaâs neck. She frowned in disgust and exclaimed, âWhy did she faint so easily?â
Marvin couldnât help but glance at Millie and then felt speechless. âBoss, do you know how scary you are now?â
It was late at night, and Joanna was consumed by guilt. Why wouldnât she faint?
Millie paused briefly before going to the bathroom to check her appearance. She had on a long white dress, with her black hair disheveled and a thick layer of powder on her face. Her dark circles were notably heavy.
Furthermore, she deliberately wore white contact lenses, giving her the appearance of having. no eyes. Millie was stunned and shocked by her appearance.
Joannaâs phone chimed Marvin grabbed it and discovered an incoming text message from Winston. âTm about to go to sleep. Why are you still awake?â
Marvin scoffed and deleted the text decisively. Millie dragged Joanna up and put her on the bed. Marvin thoroughly eliminated any evidence of their visit that night.
