Chapter 235 Trapped in the Elevator
Hearing this, Clara rummaged around on the desk and found a red folder next to the computer, "Is this
it?" She picked up the folder and handed it to the housekeeper.
"It should be. Master said it's right next to the computer and it's a red folder." All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Then I'll send it to him. He said he was waiting for the meeting." After saying that, the housekeeper
turned around and left the study in a hurry.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Clara called to the housekeeper who had just left the study door, "I'll take it to him.
I'm familiar with his company. I can be faster."
"Okay." Thinking that she was indeed not familiar with Horace's company, the housekeeper said,
"Please hurry. He was very anxious on the phone just now."
"Well, ok, I'm leaving." With a promise, Clara ran to the bedroom, put on a coat, and hurried out of the
house.
Clara took a taxi and soon arrived at Horace's company.
"Horace forgot to bring the documents. I'm here to bring them to him." Clara briefly explained the
situation to the receptionist of the company.
"Okay, that's the CEO's special elevator, you can just go up that elevator." The receptionist recognized
his wife, pointed to the elevator beside him, and immediately let her go up.
"The CEO's ex-girlfriend just went up and the CEO's wife rushed over. What's going on here?" Looking
at Clara who was waiting for the elevator, the receptionist and her colleague beside her were gossiping.
"To send documents?" The colleague heard what Clara said just now.
"Are you dumb? Do you believe that? She is obviously here to catch them in the act." The receptionist
excited, "The ex and the wife, wow, that's really something!"
They thought they were speaking very quietly but they were so excited to see such a scene that they
raised the volume unconsciously.
Clara was standing not far from them and naturally heard what they said. She tightened her hand
holding the document. Was Laura here now?
The elevator opened and she walked in anxiously. Looking at the constantly changing floor numbers,
Clara became more and more nervous. She didn't know how to explain her appearance if she saw
them together.
She was really worried that they were together, so she had to deliver the documents personally. In this
way, it really looked like that.
Would Horace think that she didn't believe him? What if he got angry? Clara was imagining things in
the elevator.
She finally got to Horace's office, but she didn't see Horace, only Isaac.
"Clara, why are you here?" Seeing Clara come in, Isaac hurriedly got up.
"To bring the documents. He left them at home." Handing the documents to Isaac, Clara asked,
"Where's Horace?"
"Master Horace is having a meeting in the conference room and I will come up after the meeting." Isaac
flipped through the documents and confirmed, "Please sit down and wait for a while. I will send the
documents first."
"Well, okay." Clara breathed a sigh of relief without seeing Horace and Laura being together.
As soon as he walked to the door, Isaac received a call.
"What did you say?" His face changed greatly after he answered the phone. And he yelled at the phone
in a panic, "Hurry up and notify the people in the maintenance department to come over! Hurry!"
Isaac hung up the phone and strode forward.
"What's wrong?" Clara hurriedly chased after him, stopped him, and asked.
It seemed that he just remembered that Clara was also here. He turned around and said to her
anxiously, "Master Horace has an accident!"
"What happened?" Clara grabbed him and asked nervously when she heard that Horace was in
trouble.
Isaac calmed down immediately and said quickly, "Master Horace and the others are about to come up
after the meeting. But the elevator they were taking suddenly broke down. Now Master Horace and
Laura are trapped in the elevator."
"How could it be?" Hearing his words, Clara immediately remembered the news about elevator
crashes.
She has interviewed this kind of news, knowing that if the situation is not good, it will be life-
threatening. Horace was in trouble.
"What should I do now?" Clara became more and more flustered.
"I've already asked the people from the maintenance department to go there. Don't panic. Maybe it's
just a small problem. He'll be fine." Realizing that Clara might have been scared by his overly anxious
tone, Isaac comforted her, "Let's go over and take a look at them."
"Okay." Clara hurriedly followed him downstairs.
When they arrived, the maintenance staff had already gotten there.
"What's going on?" Isaac asked anxiously, pulling the maintenance staff.
"Isaac, don't worry, it's not a big problem. The elevator's leveling sensor failed and other safety
switches were triggered. The elevator stopped in an emergency and got stuck between the two floors."
The maintenance staff explained the current situation, "We have already taken measures and there is
no danger, but it may take a little longer."
"How long?"
"About 3 hours."
"What?" Clara, who was beside him, couldn't help worrying when she heard that it would take so long,
"Will something bad happen?"
"The air in the elevator is enough for two people to breathe. There should be no problem. We will
shorten the rescue time as soon as possible. Don't be too anxious."
Clara and Isaac were a little relieved when they heard that the maintenance staff reassured them that
they would be fine.
However, she still felt a little uncomfortable when she thought that Horace and Laura were alone and
they had to stay together for 3 hours in the elevator.
"Trust him…" Clara waited anxiously beside the elevator while reminding herself over and over again to
trust Horace.
In the elevator, Horace and Laura were both silent to each other.
When the elevator suddenly stopped just now, Laura panicked. She was afraid that something would
happen to her. While Horace calmly made an emergency call and explained the situation in the elevator
to the maintenance staff outside.
The maintenance staff told them some precautions and they told them that the situation was not bad.
There would be no danger and they should come out safely soon.
