As Susannah had gathered as much information as she could get her hands on, she quietly closed the laptop and went to head back downstairs.
She ran out the room and hurried back to the grand staircase knowing that if she didn’t hurry back to the party soon it would start to rouse people’s suspisions.
Unfortunatly for Susannah some people were most suspicious that others. Kim was on her was up the stairs!
Susannah quickly hid behind one of the walls as she watched Kim climb the stairs. Dammit thought Susannah I had nearly made it.
As soon as she had seen Kim walk down the left corridor, Susannah knowing this was her only chance quickly ran the other way.
She made it to what seemed like a spare room and went to hide in the adjacent room until she knew it would be safe to come out.
It happened that the room Susannah had just entered was one of the many bathrooms situated around the place, she quickly bolted the door and tried to phone Mark but to no avail.
Susannah stared at her reflection in the mirror.
“Urgh, how do I manage to get myself in to these situations?” she quietly said to herself as she adjusted her necklace.
Unbeknownst to her, Kim had made her was to the spare room.
I’ve got you now, she thought to herself as she wanted upto the door and started banging on it.
“Let me in now!” shouted Kim “I know what you’ve been doing,”
Panic-stricken, Susannah again phoned Mark, it rang and rang, eventually a familiar voice spoke. ‘Hello’… it was Mark.
Susannah felt as ease for about a second and gave a deep sigh of relief.
“Mark,” she whispered “…they know! I’ve got the data, but I’m trapped inside the bathroom, I don’t know what to do,”
‘I’m really sorry Susannah, their is nothing I can do, your going to have to think of a way out yourself,’ When she heard these words she felt her head crushing with worry.
“But…”
‘I know you can do it,’ interupted Mark, and with that the phone went dead.
Downstairs Gordon and his guests were blissfully unaware of the events unraveling upstairs.
Milla did her best to keep everyone talking so their minds wouldn’t wonder to where Kim and Susannah had disappeared too.
Unforunatly trying to keep everyone entertained for longer than 5 minuets didn’t go to plan.
“I’m sorry to interrupt you Satomi,” said Gordon to Milla under her new alias. “But I have a couple of important things I need to do,” and with that he stood up and headed upstairs.
Their was nothing Milla could do he had left the room.
Once she knew their was nothing else she could do she pardoned herself from the rest of the guests and made an excuse to leave.
Just after Milla has left the mansion Gordon had made his way to where Kim was.
“Gordon sir… that girl you invited to the party…she has been going through your stuff in your room…I followed her and she has locked herself in the bathroom,” Kim informed.
“Now then..” said Gordon not looking impressed at all. “Let’s take care of this little problem.”
