Ray saw Yvette in her nightgown, completely drenched and curled up in a corner. Her arms and legs were covered in red scratches.
He quickly turned off the water, grabbed a bathrobe and draped it over her, covering her exposed body.
"Are you all right?" Ray's voice was loud, but it sounded faint to Yvette.

gave her a look and then left.
After he left, Yvette realized that It was already late and sent a voice message to Viola and the others to let them know she was safe.
On the other side, Xavier returned to Dewberry Estate but couldn't sleep.
He stood on the balcony, smoking. His mind was filled with the scenes of him and Yvette together earlier. Her slender figure was vivid in his thoughts.
He felt oddly thirsty. Before he could notice, the cigarette burned down to his fingers, snapping him back to reality.
He didn't sleep the whole night.

As usual, Mark briefed him on work matters. Xavier listened absentmindedly. He suddenly asked, "Has Yvette come in?"
Mark paused and then shook his head. "I heard she's sick, so she'll be absent today."
"Keep an eye on her. Make sure she doesn't get away." Xavier ordered.
"Yes.
As Mark was leaving, he ran into Daphne, who was dressed up extravagantly.
"Mr. Xyrax, who shouldn't get away?"
