Chapter 30: 30

I nod in agreement and the nurses and doctors head to the farther corner of the room to talk. There is a

knock on the door and a medical technician walks in. He greets me and proceed to the farther corner of

the room where everyone was. The medical technician carries a luggage-like bag and starts pulling out

apparatuses. Elliot leans to me, “Hey, what do you want for lunch or uhm dinner?” he asks me. I slowly Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

stand up and Elliot helps me up.

“Your mom is excited for you and me to consummate this marriage” I tease Elliot.

“We’re working on that.” Elliot smiles at me

“So, what did the police say?” I ask

Elliot lets out a breath, “Well, speaking of that, we would need to get home sooner. I am not confident

that we stay here any longer. We’ll fly out maybe on Thursday instead of Sunday. I’ll just give you time

to regain your strength before we fly back home.”

My face fell. I thought we would be spending more time together. When we leave to go back home, we

will not be seeing much of each other. Elliot will be busy with the business and school and I will be busy

with school.

“Elliot, I don’t want to go home just yet. I like it here. I like spending time with you. I just---” I trail off.

Elliot cups my face in his hands, “I’m sorry to have to cut the trip short but we need to go”

“What happened with the police that made you decide to leave?” I ask him

He sighs heavily, “I’m just taking extra precautions” he tells me, “I just don’t want you to get worried or

paranoid”

I look at him, “I promise I don’t be. Let’s just stay until the end of the week, please?”

Before Elliot gets a chance to answer me, there was a knock on the door. Elliot stands and opens the

door to see two police officers and a man in a black suit. I hear them but I could not decipher the whole

conversation. All I was able to pick up was they were going to ask me questions. Elliot says something

and I see him shaking his head. The policemen conversed with him some more. One of the officers

gestured to me and Elliot took a glance. Elliot’s shoulders drop and makes way for the officers to enter

the room.

“Mrs. Smith, I’m officer Saetang and this is my partner officer Chen.” The first officer greets me. “This is

detective Huang. He will be handling your case. We are here to gather information on what things, to

help piece everything together” she says. “We would just like to ask you a few questions, if that would

be alright?” she asks me.

“Yeah, sure, no problem” I tell her.

She pulls out a block pad and a pen, “Mrs. Smith did you notice anything odd around?”

I shake my head, “No”

“Were there any face who seemed a little off or suspicious?”

“No, not from what I remember” I tell them

“Where them people who you talked to as your stay at the hotel went on?” she asked.

I shake my head, “No, no one except the people at the front desk and at the hotel’s room service”

“Are there people in particular who you feel like would try to invade your hotel suite? Someone whom

you’ve gotten into a fight before, a person who is in debt to you or vice versa?”

I shake my head, “No” She continues to write on her pad and shifts her position to her partner.
