She was his fiancee, and Lucinda was nothing but a third-party in their relationship.
The more she thought about it, the more furious Eleanor became. The rage and hatred in her eyes were palpable.
Eleanor gripped the phone tightly, her hand shaking with anger as she considered smashing it into pieces.
But then she suddenly stopped.
A brilliant idea popped into her head.
She clicked on Lucinda’s phone and composed a message which she sent to Nathaniel.
Satisfied with her handiwork, she hurled the phone to the ground, but it wasn’t enough to appease her anger. She then crushed it under her high heels until the screen shattered completely.
Looking back at the abandoned house, Eleanor was determined to totally ruin Lucinda.
She reached out to the door and pushed it open. The room was pitch-black, as there was no source of light.
Eleanor found this strange. Why hadn’t Karin left a lamp on after placing Lucinda inside?
She took a couple of hesitant steps forward, and the thick dust in the air made her cough.
It was too dark to see a thing.
Feeling unsettled, Eleanor decided to go out to get the kerosene Lamp outside.
But before she could make her way out, the door slammed shut.
Eleanor sensed that something was amiss and rushed towards the door.
She pounded on it with all her strength.

“Who is there? Who is outside?! Karin? Is that you? Open the door!”
Everywhere was still.
The silence only made her more nervous.
In an attempt to calm down, Eleanor took a few deep breaths and turned back to the room. She called out tentatively, “Lucinda?
Lucinda, are you here?”
No matter how loud she yelled, she got no answer.
The realization that she might be alone in the room pushed Eleanor to the brink of a breakdown.
Could it have been Lucinda who locked her in?
