章 501: Indirect save

"Darlin…" Zoey's words trailed off as soon as she returned back in the master's bedroom where she thought Matthew was waiting for her. To her dismay, Matthew wasn't inside the bedroom despite this late at night.

"Uh? Still not here?" She muttered, looking around but to no avail. Matthew wasn't inside. She checked the closet and even snuck inside the bathroom in case he was showering, but even his shadow wasn't inside.

"It's not that he is still working…" Zoey's words stopped as her face distorted. "Of course, he is still working. After all, he didn't go to work today to accompany me so he probably needs to do some important work." She sighed, frowning at his absence.

Slowly, Zoey collapsed on the carpeted floor, tired at the seemingly easy training. However, she could feel that her body and mind were tired. "Just when I wanted to brag that I fed Dredd." Once again, a heavy sigh slipped past her lips as she sulked.
