It was yet another morning and when Ashley woke up, she realized that she had slept in Mr Manchester's bedroom. Later during the previous night, she had returned to check on his health and Ashley decided to stay with him for a while. She didn't expect to fall asleep while sitting near him.Ashley stood up and left the bedroom quietly. Hector had always complained that Mr Manchester barely slept at night. But she noticed that he didn't even wake up while he was asleep.Did his keeping of late night have to do with him being alone in the bedroom?

And when she decided to stay with him, he successfully fell asleep until that moment.Ashley returned back to her bedroom, she stretched her back on her way there. She had slept in a wrong position overnight and it affected her badly. Ashley reached her bedroom, and just as she placed her hand on the knob in order to open the door, she heard someone call out her name.

She did, and to her greatest surprise, Mr Manchester was laying on his bed looking very pale. Just earlier tha
