Chapter 161: When Everything Goes Wrong

Jamie walked back and forth. Next, he shook his head. Cecily drank the water again to lessen her headache. Then, after a while, she stood.

"I have been better. I will go home. Don't worry! I will explain everything to my father."

Jamie nodded. "Let me send you to the door."

Both walked to the door. Jamie held the door handle and pushed it down to open the door, but it didn't open. So he tried again with more force. Still, the door remained unmoving.

"What's wrong?" Cecily asked.

"It's stuck! Let me see if it's locked." Jamie bent his head to see the keyhole. "It's not locked. I don't know why I can't open the door."

"Try your key. Maybe you forgot to lock the door before."

Jamie took a deep breath, inserting the key into the keyhole. He shook his head. "It locks the door now." So he unlocked the door with the key and moved the handle downward, but nothing happened. "Selina went an hour ago. Why hasn't she returned yet?"
