Take Me Away
Chapter 114 Where Am I
The darkness made Fiona's mind race—memories and thoughts flooding it. As much as she wanted to calm down, she couldn't. When she saw the slightest trace of light, she longed for more.
"Please don't... Go away!" Screaming, Fiona suddenly opened her eyes. She lay in the bed, staring at the ceiling. She took deep breaths in an attempt to calm herself down. All the events of the previous day were monopolizing her thoughts once more.
The jewelry store, Celine, the men in black, the kidnapping...
As the light shone through the window, Fiona sat up in bed and lifted the quilt. She got up from the bed and began to walk out of the room, her mind blank.
As she ran to the door with her bare feet,
the door was suddenly opened from the outside. It was a servant who had opened the door. She looked like she was in her forties . When she saw Fiona's face, she was stunned. "Miss, are you awake?"
Clutching her chest, Fiona took a step back and looked at the woman in high alert. "Who are you? Where am I? What am I doing here?"
"Well... you're asking so many questions. I don't know which one to answer first. You just woke up, how are you feeling? Do you need me to call a doctor for you?"
The more polite the servant was, the more frightened Fiona became. She hurriedly stepped back, shook her head, and suddenly shouted, "Help! Help! Help!"
The servant was frightened, not knowing what to do. So she tried to stop her instead. "Miss, please don't shout! You..."
"What's wrong?" A man's voice came from the stairway as the sound of footsteps drew nearer. "I told you to take good care of her! Why was she screaming? Hmm?" The voice sounded familiar to Fiona.
She instinctively looked towards the angry man as he walked into the room accompanied by several other men.
When she saw the man's face, Fiona's mind went completely blank. Charles? What was Charles doing here?
"Get this servant out of my sight!" Charles frowned as he pointed to the servant. "You're useless!"
"Sir, please don't!" The servant began to struggle and kneel down on the floor on both knees. "I was wrong, sir! Please don't fire me! I will serve her well but please don't fire me!"
At the sight of this, Fiona was so shocked that she couldn't speak. Why was this woman kneeling in front of Charles? Why was the woman looking at him with fear?
Indifferently, Charles waved his hand. Just as the two bodyguards approached the servant, she suddenly walked towards Fiona and kneeled down in front of her. Grabbing her leg, the servant begged, "Miss, please forgive me! I didn't mean to scare you. Please!"
