Chapter 137
“Elana Want to play some board games? Are you asleep?”
Thomas walked into the room and looked around. He didn’t see Eliana, only the birdcage on the table.
The horror movie was projected directly onto the wall using Eliana’s phone. The light in the room was still on, and Thomas didn’t look directly at the wall. Meanwhile, Hera was grooming her feathers inside her cage.
Thomas walked to the birdcage and poked Hera with the small wooden stick next to it. “Where’s your owner! Why are you the only one in the
rooms
Hera suddenly cried out. Then, a strange sound came from behind Thomas as if someone was crying
Thomas was stunned, turned his head, and glanced. However, he saw nothing unusual. It was the window that was not closed tightly, and the wind and rain outside blew the curtains. He approached to close the window.
Suddenly, Hera chirped again.
Thomas frowned. “Why do you keep chirping? It’s getting annoying. I’ll leave…”
Wah
Thomas suddenly heard a deafening scream. The hair on his back stood on end. He was taken aback
Thomas turned his head and saw a horrifying face on the wall a ghost’s face. Thomas was startled and shouted. “Ah!
Just then, Eliana was carrying a cake upstairs. When she reached the top of the stairs, she heard Thomas’s scream and hurried back to her room.
“Thomas“”
Thomas walked to the door and almost bumped into the cake in Eliapa’s hands. “Whoa!” He stopped just in time. “Eliana, why are you out here? Where were you?”
Elians answered, “I went downstairs to get a cake. What is it?
Thomas parted has chell. “If you’re going out, turn off your horror shovie. It scared me to death. I almost had a heart attack. I came to invite you to play games in the lounge.”
“You got scared? Hah!” Eliana laughed. “Okay, you head down first. I’ll get my jacket”
okay, but seriously, Lan’t believe you’re a horror movie enthusiast, Bai Zhu muttered as he left.
Meanwhile, Eliana entered the room, paused the movie, put on her jacket, and went downstairs with the cake
Hera watched the whole process. After seeing Elian leave, she chirped twice and closed her eyes to rest,
Eliana went downstairs to the lounge. Everyone had gathered there. Owen was standing by the window
The lounge had arched windows with a few cushions on the bay window. From inside, the wind and rain outside looked terrifying,
“The rain is getting heavier. This is not a good sign. If it rains for a week straight, it might cause a flood Owen seemed worried.
Landon approached him with his juice and said, “If it causes a floud, won’t we be trapped here?”
Owen explained, “Even worse, maybe well drown. But it’s not us who should be worried. It’s that island over there. That island is tiny, and if a flood did come, that island would be destroyed”
Hearing that. Adam, sitting on the sofa, frowned.
Thomas quickly approached and patted his shoulder. “Your sister and brother are still on that island.”
Adam was sent. Meanwhile, Eliana put the cake on the table, sut cross–legged on the carpet, and said leisurely: “If it gets destroyed, they will suffer. Don’t you want to help them?”
Adam wanted to help. But it wasn’t up to him.
After all, Wendy and Shane were still his relatives. Although they were illegitimate children, they had been recognized as pan of Adam’s family, Hence, if something happened to them. Adam’s grandpa would lose his temper, especially when knowing Adam was at the scene.

It would be fine if he had a heart attack and died on the spot, However, the story would take a bad turn if he didn’t. His grandpa would yell at him. and Adam had nothing to defrod himself.
The more Adam thought about it, the more uneasy his heart became
“Let’s wait and see. If the universe wants to take their lives, none of us can stop it. They can only depend on their luck and survival skills” Elina shrugged.
The lounge had lots of board games and a pool table. The servants had also brought a bottle of red wine and a few glasses.
Eliana ate cake and started playing pool. Meanwhile, Owen was on the phone.
Eliana wandered around with a cake and found a gaming room behind the kuunge.
She turned to Owen and asked, “Owen, is the PC insi
PC inside still working! Can we connect in the internet in such a heavy storm?
Owen covered his phone and replied, “You can connect in the internet
The contractor considered the island’s weather conditions when installing WiFi. Hence, he installed special hardware. With it, the island would still have access to the internet unless a massive flood or isumani happencil
Eliana looked around the gaming room. The equipment inside was decent. The PC monitor was Large and hail a cyberpunk feel.
Thinking her friends were playing billiards outside, Eliana pulled up a chair and sat inside to play. She turned on the computer and browsed. There were many popular games, among which Crossdoom cauglu Eliana’s attention

Eliaria never found the time to return to her desk and play games. Thunking about it, she missed the happy time she had playing games,
Crossdoom was a papubar MOBA game, and Eliana’s account had not been touched for two years.
As Eliana sat before the computer screen, she typed in her game account and password. It might only be two years, but it felt like an eternity.
The game interface had undergone drastic changes, and the gameplay had also been updated. Fortunately, the core of the game remained unchanged. Eliana explored the new features and quickly familiarized herself.
The last time Eliana played, her account was on the leaderboard. But after her two–year absence, she dropped to the bottom. Even so, she was conflent her skills were irrelevant to her rank.
Eliana immediately started a game. She was determined to dominate the game like last time.
