Chapter 985 Why Are Your Lips Swollen

Natalie furrowed her brows.

He had the courage to kiss me for such a long time but left the room without hesitation before the lights returned.

Clearly, he can’t bring himself to let go of me. Yet, he keeps hiding from me. What is there that we can’t go through together?

“You’re too much, Samuel…” Natalie choked out as tears welled up in her eyes.

She had tried her best to understand him, but it seemed like her attempts did not work.

Alas, she still had no clue what was going through that man’s mind.

Once the secret door opened, Jerome and the other players from the other room came over to Natalie’s room, which was still dark.

“Natalie,” Jerome called out when he entered the room.

“I’m here,” Natalie softly said.

Jerome soon found his way toward her by following her voice. He then asked, “How are things at your side?”

In the dark, Jerome could not see her swollen lips, let alone know that she had just been kissed by another man in the room beside his.

“Nothing,” she muttered as she tucked away the mixed feelings in her.

Jerome did not think much about her response. “I didn’t know that I was holding the wrong person’s hand earlier. I thought I was holding yours. I… I didn’t mean to do it. After entering the other room, I realized I couldn’t go back the same way I came from, so I started solving the puzzles…”

Jerome made it seem like he was recounting to Natalie what had happened on his side, but it was actually him explaining himself to her.

Nevertheless, Natalie was feeling crestfallen, so she did not pay much attention to Jerome’s words.

“Okay,” was all she said.

“You don’t blame me for it?” Jerome tentatively asked.

“Why should I blame you for that?” Natalie responded with a smile.

I should be thanking you. If you didn’t hold the wrong person’s hand and give me some time and space with that man, I wouldn’t have been able to find out the answers to certain questions. At the very least, I know that the man isn’t far from me—he’s followed me to Yaleview.

As for the reason he refused to confront her, Natalie was going to look into it.

Jerome then stood by Natalie’s side and beamed. “I’m glad that you’re not blaming me for that. Let’s solve the puzzles together then.”

“Sure.”

Natalie knew that the other man was gone, so she stopped thinking about him and threw herself into the work of solving puzzles with Jerome instead.

There were a total of eight of them. The ones who were not scared out of their minds barely had a brain, and the puzzles with pictures and figures stumped them.

On the other hand, Jerome and Natalie breezed through everything.

In the end, Jerome and Natalie led the others at the front.

The actor wanted to make the atmosphere spookier, so he avoided Jerome and targeted Natalie instead.

He thought that Natalie would scream like the other girls and run off, but she calmly stared at him and uttered, “Thank you for your hard work.”

The actor turned speechless.

He had been working as an actor in the escape room for several years, and it was his first time encountering someone who seemed completely unfazed. Thus, he instantly became dispirited.

At once, the eerie feeling in the room toned down.

In the end, they cleared the escape room easily and found out the truth about the suicide case at Elk Grove Girls’ School.

When they stepped out of the room, the lights outside blinded Natalie for a moment. It took her a while before she could get used to the brightness.

Meanwhile, Jerome, who was by Natalie’s side, took a glance at her. He then fixed his gaze on her slightly swollen lips and blurted out, “Why are your lips so… swollen?”
