Chapter 29

SERVED SILVER

Mike lied to him. He lied to everybody.

The basement isn't filled with a curse, it is filled with food cartons and much worst a stack of bottles filled with a glowing liquid.

Ethan feels the pull from the bottle but he doesn't want to jump to a conclusion yet.

In the room, they find another door, and thankfully, this one has a key to it. Ethan opens it and finds it leads to another staircase. Following the stair, it leads to another section of the house and then further to the back door. This must have been his exit, that's why no one noticed that he came in here whenever he wanted to get more supplies.

Ethan returns to the men in the basement and finds them still shocked at what they had thought was a monster all along. He would have loved to hear Max make fun of them but there is something else on his mind. If this liquid turns out to be what he thinks it is, he will have to give the ultimate punishment to Mike.
