Chapter 1190 The Unconscious Young Man
It was almost noon when Sheryl and Isla reached the skyscraper.
There were a multitude of firms inside the office building. The two of them entered and took the lift to
the eighteenth floor.
As they exited the lift, they quickly looked around for Lansh Technology. It didn't take them long to find
the company. They stood outside the office. Inside, the lights were on.
"Since those men went their separate ways, I thought that they might have closed down the place and
ran away. It looks like I was wrong," Isla murmured in disbelief.
"What are you talking about? They are not in debt, why would they flee?" Sheryl retorted, shaking her
head at her friend.
"Well, since they are not going to open the company, they will get their money back. Anyway, I don't
think it's a good idea to continue to work with them," Isla voiced out her opinion, the same as before.
"Come on, this is not the time to argue with each other. Let's get inside," Sheryl said curtly. She hadn't
changed her mind and she also had no intention of making Isla agree with her opinions. There was
only one thought in her mind and that was to figure out what was going on with this company.
They entered the office, but there was no one at the reception desk to usher them in. No one from the
office came forward to inquire about their visit either. The office seemed empty.
"Hello, is anyone here?" Sheryl called out, standing beside the reception desk.
Isla stood behind Sheryl. She followed the direction of her boss's gaze, but didn't see anyone inside.
"Is anyone here?" Sheryl raised her voice.
As she spoke, she and Isla walked towards the central part of the company. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
They glanced around, but there was no one in sight. It was eerie.
"Sher, it looks like no one is here. Let's get out of here," Isla said with a frown. She didn't want to waste
another minute wandering inside the empty office. The arrogant behavior of the staff had left a bad
impression on her.
She had made several calls before coming in person, but no one had answered the phone.
She wanted to cancel this contract as soon as possible. But Sheryl, on the other hand, had no plans of
leaving.
She continued to call out to see if anyone was inside as she made her way into the office.
To her disappointment, she saw no one at all. But instead of giving up, she walked towards another
room inside the office, and ended up with the same result. She then entered several other rooms with
no luck. Frustrated, she decided to walk back to Isla. 'Did I come all this way for nothing?
Where are the staff members? Did the young men really give up on their new company?
Did they already split the money and leave like Isla had said?' Tons of questions raced through her
mind.
She was thinking that maybe she should have just listened to Isla in the first place and not come here
at all.
'What is the point of continuing to stay here now?' she wondered.
As she was about to turn around in a bid to leave, she caught glimpse of a silhouette inside an office in
the far corner.
Considering that she hadn't checked that room, she strode towards the office room.
"Did you find someone, Sher?" Isla asked curiously when she detected that Sheryl had become tense
all of a sudden.
Without replying, Sheryl proceeded towards the dark silhouette.
Since the door was ajar, she could clearly see the figure inside.
"Excuse me? May I come in?" she inquired cautiously.
However, the person didn't respond. He did not even raise his head from the desk to spare a glance at
the door.
Out of the blue, a rising terror overpowered her. She found the situation kind of creepy. 'It's really weird
that the lights are on in an empty office in broad daylight. And the only person in the office is seated in
a corner office with the door wide open. What's more, the person is completely ignoring me, ' she
thought.
Isla's company gave her a little courage. Or maybe, she could control her fear since she didn't believe
in ghosts.
She walked into the room.
Isla also sensed the weird atmosphere. 'Something is clearly wrong in here, ' she thought, a shiver
running through her spine.
The sight of Sheryl walking in left her speechless.
Engulfed in fear, she couldn't join Sheryl to find out what was in that ghostly office.
Isla had meant to dissuade her from going inside. But before she could find her voice, Sheryl had
already walked into the room.
"Hey! Is everything okay? What happened? Wake up!" Sheryl's panicked voice echoed throughout the
company.
Scared as she was, Isla still ran towards the office in the corner.
'What if something happens to Sheryl? I can never forgive myself for abandoning her, ' she thought in
fear.
She even started to blame herself for going along with Sheryl's idea and accompanying her to this
creepy office.
"Isla!" Sheryl cried out, turning to her friend for help.
"What's going on, Sher?" Isla shouted back anxiously as she quickened her pace towards Sheryl.
When she dashed into the office, she saw an unconscious man at the desk.
The man was younger than her. Even though he was in a coma with his eyes closed, his fine features
caught Isla's attention. 'He is a handsome guy, ' she thought, looking intently at the stranger.
"No wonder he didn't answer. He has blacked out," Sheryl said, worried about the stranger.
"Oh! But who is this?" Isla asked as she studied the young man. She felt like she had met him before.
A thought dawned on her. "Is he one of the founders of this company?" she guessed. She was unsure
about her speculation, but she thought she had seen him at Cloud Advertising Company.
"Yes, he is," Sheryl confirmed her assumption. On behalf of Lansh Technology, this man had discussed
the contract with Sheryl in Cloud Advertising Company. His immense passion towards his career had
impressed Sheryl. So she recognized him immediately.
But she couldn't remember his name.
"What should we do? Should we take him to the hospital?" Isla asked, confused as to what to do next.
She stared at the unconscious man, not knowing if they should interfere anymore.
"Call the ambulance," Sheryl suggested with furrowed eyebrows. She had thought about driving him to
the hospital.
But then she changed her mind. She had no idea why he had blacked out, and hence she couldn't
perform any first aid on him. She decided to wait for the emergency personnel to come.
"Okay. I am calling now!" Isla replied in a fluster. She pulled out her cell phone and called the
ambulance immediately.
When she got through to them, she filled them in on their location. Soon, the emergency personnel
rushed to Lansh Technology and carried the young man to the ambulance.
Sheryl and Isla followed the ambulance to the hospital.
