My CEO Daddy

Chapter 48 Human Or Ghost



As he passed by the washroom, Ken thought he heard an odd noise, but couldn't be too sure. He slowed down to try to identify the noise. He even held his breath so that he wouldn't miss the sound if it repeated again. Not hearing anything, he decided to leave.

"Open the door... Please..."

There was that sound again! Ken looked down at the signs on the floor and frowned to himself.

"Since when is this a haunted building?"

Silence again. Ken shook his head, trying to convince himself it was his imagination. Just as he was about to leave, he heard a faint voice.

"Hello? Is anybody there?"

"Who's that? Are you a human or a ghost?"

Ken yelled in the direction of the washroom.

His voice immediately attracted the staff in the office.

"Tap tap tap..."

Nicole heard the voice outside the door but didn't dare to be too excited. She was scared it was just her imagination playing tricks on her. She quickly banged on the door as hard as she could. She couldn't shout anymore as her throat was already dry from all the earlier shouting, to the point that even the slightest noise made her wince with pain.

"Oh my God, there's someone in there!"

Ken quickly called for the maintenance staff, but the spare key was nowhere to be found.

"Let me try." Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Ken took a few steps away from the tightly closed door. Then he rushed towards the door and kicked it open in one swift motion.

"Ahhh!"

Nicole had been leaning on the door, not expecting someone to come and kick it open. Before she realized what was going on, she was trapped under the collapsed door. She had no time at all to react.

Ken thought the scream sounded vaguely familiar. He bent down and took a closer look at the woman lying on the floor. His eyes filled with shock and recognition.

"Nicole? What are you doing here? What happened?"

Nicole had already been weak from the start. Now that the door had collapsed on her, she was too exhausted to say anything. She just looked at him, her mouth opening but no words coming out.

"Someone go and inform Mr. Gu!"

Ken ordered the person nearest to him. He had a bad feeling about this.

He squatted next to Nicole, checki

up?"

Seeing the look on Ken's face, Kerr knew that he wasn't there just for fun. To be honest he was grateful for Ken's presence. If it wasn't for him, there was no telling how long Nicole would have been trapped in the washroom.

"Mr. Gu, I'm here to ask for a favor. I'll have to rely on you from now on,"

Ken said, trying to flatter Kerr.

Nicole looked at Ken's shameless face and suddenly got goose bumps all over her body.

Kerr filled a glass with water and placed it in front of her mouth, tilting the glass carefully to make sure that he didn't make her choke by pouring too much water in her mouth. He did it patiently until the whole glass was finished.

Feeling a bit better now that her throat was no longer dry, she looked at Kerr gratefully.

"Thank you."

"Mr. Gu, I've brought what you asked for!"

Jared had moved quickly, wasting no time in completing his task as soon as he had received Kerr's message. He came over swiftly and placed a food container on the table.

Kerr gently helped Nicole sit up and placed a pillow behind her back.

Her eyes were shining, eagerly looking at the container that Jared had brought. She looked as though she could eat the whole thing in one go.

As Nicole started eating her meal obediently, Kerr glanced in Ken's direction and walked out of the ward.

"What happened?"

Ken couldn't help sighing when he heard Kerr's sharp tone. He knew he couldn't hide anything from Kerr.
