Chapter 867 I Want To See Him

Meanwhile, at the hotel, Maggie became more worried as she watched the time ticked by on her phone. There was still no sign of Alex even though it was already past midnight. Maggie had no choice but to call Alex again. She waited for a long time, but nobody answered the call.

It was the forty-sixth call that she made, and none of them was picked up.

Maggie was so nervous that she started pacing around the room. The sudden emergence of Green Mountain Monastery was eerie enough to her, yet Alex still wanted to check it out.

Right now, Alex was not picking up his phone. Could it be that he ran into trouble somewhere?

However, Maggie had just witnessed Alex's capability in the morning. How can something possibly happen to Alex that easily?

But what if the bad guy has a gun?

Maggie dreaded imagining the rest. Glancing at Stanley, who was soundly asleep, Maggie made a decision.

I have to look for Alex there!

She had to see him even if he were dead. At most, she would die with him.

After making up her mind, Maggie draped a coat on her shoulders and exited the room. Even if she was afraid of Green Mountain Monastery, it could not stop her from checking whether Alex was alive. After exiting the room, Maggie started sprinting because she was worried about Alex. Aler, you r*scal! Please come back to me safe and sound!

"Ouch!"

Daphne had just gone out when her phone was knocked onto the ground. When Daphne saw the person who bumped into her, who happened to be Alex's girlfriend, she immediately fumed with anger. Maggie fell onto the ground due to the momentum she gained while running at top speed and bumping into someone. As a result, her arm was bruised and bleeding.

"I'm sorry!" Enduring the pain, Maggie stood up and apologized to Daphne. She was about to leave when Daphne grabbed her arm and dragged her back.

Then, Daphne raised her hand and slapped Maggie.

Smack!

A loud slap rang out and reverberated in the corridor. Daphne did not hold back at all because she hated Alex, and Maggie was his girlfriend.

"Didn't you realize that you bumped into someone else? Do you think a simple apology is enough to settle this incident? I am not taking that!" Daphne demanded arrogantly. Meanwhile, five distinct red fingerprints appeared on Maggie's cheek, which stood out prominently against her fair complexion.

Normally, as the daughter of the Grant family in Lumenopolis, she would not tolerate such humiliation if

However, Maggie's current concern was Alex's safety. Although she had been wronged, she chose not to deal with Daphne. Maggie cast a cold glance at Daphne and decided to leave. However, Daphne blocked Maggie's way persistently. Displeased, she spat, "Where do you think you're going? You just knocked my phone onto the ground. Do you think you can get away so easily?" Upon hearing Daphne's words, Maggie noticed a phone on the ground not far away. She picked it up examined it carefully.

and

It was the latest iPhone 12, which was not surprising considering Daphne's background. The phone was protected by a phone case, and the screen showed no signs of damage. After wiping the screen briefly, Maggie handed the phone back to Daphne. "Your phone is fine. Here, take it. I need to leave first because I have something urgent to tend to." When Maggie handed the phone back, Daphne did not reach out for it. Instead, she watched as the phone smashed onto the ground again.

"

The phone was not that lucky this time. A crack appeared on the screen upon impact.
