Chapter 1241 Let Me Try My Luck
This thought made Natalie stiffen and anxiousness coursed through her blood.
She was worried whether the housekeeper would go and take a look at Jacqueline.
She sat on the steps and watched all the movements on the ground floor, wanting to see if the housekeeper would go upstairs to look for Jacqueline.
Luckily, even after five minutes, despite Jacqueline’s screams, the housekeeper did not go upstairs.
Clearly, the housekeeper had listened to her and ignored Jacqueline.
“That’s great!” Natalie clasped her hands together and smiled excitedly.
Thankfully I had the foresight to tell that to the housekeeper.
Otherwise, Jacqueline would know by now that her cell phone was gone.
Natalie looked at the cell phone with her lips tightly pursed together.
No matter what, she could not allow anyone to notice or to take this cell phone away. This was her only lifeline right now.
Now she was just waiting for Jacqueline to calm down. When she was done with her tantrum and was asleep, she would sneak into her room and use Jacqueline’s finger to unlock the phone.
I just hope that she doesn’t have insomnia or that her eyesight doesn’t recover that quickly. Otherwise, I will be waiting for nothing!
Hence, Natalie kept waiting by the steps. One hour passed. Two hours passed.
Probably due to fatigue, Jacqueline finally stopped screaming and thrashing things around.
I guess she should be asleep next?
I’ll just wait a little longer. Just a little longer.
Natalie told herself that. No matter how cold and uncomfortable the wait was, she was going to persist!
She then waited another three hours.
She glanced at the phone which showed that it was already two in the morning.
Jacqueline should be asleep by now?
With that thought in mind, Natalie decided to go down to take a look.
She stood up and rubbed her back which had become sore from all the sitting. Then, she removed her shoes once again and went barefoot down the steps.
When she arrived at Jacqueline’s door, her heart could not stop beating as if it was about to jump out of her throat. She felt exactly like she did when she took the cell phone.
Alas, this was the first time she had to do something as sneaky as this. There was no way she would not be anxious or nervous.
“No, don’t panic Natalie. If you panic you’ll screw things up!” Natalie placed her hand on her chest gently and warned herself not to be anxious.
It seemed to work. Natalie took a deep breath and eventually calmed down. She placed her hand on the doorknob and turned it slightly.
Because the housekeeper did not lock the room and Jacqueline could not see, the door was definitely not locked from the inside.
Indeed, Natalie turned the knob and the door was immediately open.
A bright light shone through the gap. Holding her breath, Natalie pushed the door open slowly.
This little action took her almost two minutes.
She was afraid that if she pushed the door too quickly, it would make a sound.
The door was completely open but Natalie did not rush in. Instead, she stood observing at the door as she wanted to see if Jacqueline was fast asleep.
She looked toward the bed and saw Jacqueline lying there with a blanket over her. Her eyes were closed and she looked asleep.
Natalie smiled to herself at that sight.
All right, Jacqueline is really asleep!
This is really an opportunity sent by god!
Natalie released the knob and tiptoed toward the bed.
With the thick carpet, she made no sound at all with her footsteps.
Natalie sped up a little and reached the bedside in a matter of about ten seconds.
Then, Natalie took out the cell phone. Instead of rushing to grab Jacqueline’s hand to unlock the phone, she continued observing Jacqueline to see if she would notice someone standing by her bedside.
