NovelTrueChapter 1161:
“Enough! Just catch that rat already!” Ethan snapped, unable to begin figuring out how so many rats had
suddenly invaded the place.
Ethan and Neville hurried after the fastest rat in the group. It slipped under a desk, managed to avoid them, and
dashed straight toward the break room. Both men raced behind it, though by the tthey reached the break
room, the rat had disappeared from sight.
Underneath the break room cabinets, there were plenty of spaces where a rat could easily hide.
Neville pointed toward the doorway and exclaimed, “There it goes!”
They kept after the rat as it scampered back into the restroom. The two men ran in after it. Inside the restroom,
many small stalls created even more places for a rat to slip away. They opened each stall and checked inside,
but the rat was already gone.
After finishing their search, they returned to the main office. By then, things outside had grown quiet. Rex, along
with two of the other male secretaries, had managed to catch one rat and finish it off, but the rest of the group
hadn’t caught a single one.
Rex stepped forward and said to Ethan, “Boss, I'm not sure what caused this sudden rat invasion, but maybe we
ought to bring in a few cats.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEthan's expression tightened. “Okay. Bring the cats here quickly. There are a lot of wires in this building, and if
rats start chewing through them, the repairs will be difficult and take a long time.”
Gracie rushed over, her face still pale. “Why are there rats here? | am terrified of them.”
This time, the fear on Gracie’s face was genuine. She realized there was a huge difference between seeing a few
pet hamsters and spotting several oversized rats.
All at once, Gracie said, “Ethan, | just remembered that | promised Elsa | would go visit Belen. I really have to
leave now.”
Gracie decided she would not cback until every last rat had been caught. Ethan said nothing as he looked
her way. He did not like the idea of Gracie visiting Belen. He knew her illness had nothing to do with Gracie, and
it seemed like she only wanted an excuse to get close to his family by going to the hospital.
That bothered him more than he could admit.
Without waiting for Ethan to reply, Gracie headed for the exit.
