After Beatrice Hargrave got up, she quickly washed up and then went to the room across to call soone. She first ca to Hannah Hargrave’s room, raised her hand, and knocked, "Sis, are you up?"
Hearing the knock on the door, Hannah Hargrave quickly wiped her tears and used her hands to prop herself up from the carpet. She adjusted her robe and smiled when she opened the door.
"Sis, why haven’t you freshened up yet? Didn’t we say we’re walking the red carpet at noon?" Seeing Hannah Hargrave’s haggard appearance, Beatrice Hargrave feigned surprise.
"It’s okay, there are professional makeup artists," Hannah Hargrave turned and walked back, heading straight to the bathroom, feeling the sticky sensation needed to be washed off.
Beatrice Hargrave followed her in and instinctively looked around after closing the door. If she didn’t hear wrongly, she hadn’t heard the opposite room’s door open since she woke up. It seed... that "wild man" should still be in the room.
Seeing Hannah Hargrave head to the bathroom, Beatrice Hargrave tiptoed towards the inner suite, feeling a little excited inside, eager to know what Hannah Hargrave’s reaction will be after she catches her "in the act".
Opening the door to the inner room, seeing the empty big bed, Beatrice Hargrave felt strange. She held the handle with one hand and scratched her forehead with the other, frowning as she thought.
That’s odd, she hadn’t heard any sound of soone leaving last night, nor this morning. How did the man Hannah Hargrave was with last night just disappear into thin air?
Staring at the neatly made bed, Beatrice Hargrave was puzzled.
They had breakfast together at the hotel’s restaurant downstairs. Beatrice Hargrave sat next to Hannah Hargrave, intentionally choosing a turtleneck knit sweater, with the collar of her denim jacket also turned up.
Because last night, the man opposite left marks on her neck. If she didn’t cover them, Hannah Hargrave would definitely suspect sothing.
Nicholas Croft lowered his head as he drank the porridge, his stern face showing no expression. Today, Hannah Hargrave’s behavior was quite strange; she didn’t dare to et Nicholas Croft’s eyes at all.
Beatrice Hargrave ate her breakfast with her head down, quietly observing the two’s behavior. Suddenly, a loud sound from across the table was heard; Nicholas Croft sneezed.
The two sisters instinctively looked up, seeing the man opposite holding a napkin to cover half his face, his head turning to the corner. Just as Hannah Hargrave was about to ask him how he was, the refined man sneezed again.
Beatrice Hargrave’s eyes rolled as she feigned confusion, "Sis, what’s going on with you and Uncle Nicholas? Didn’t you sleep well? One looks like a panda, and the other can’t stop sneezing."
Bluntly pointed out by Beatrice Hargrave, Hannah Hargrave forced a smile, saying, "Last night, Nicholas and I discussed so work matters, so I rested late."
Beatrice Hargrave turned to Nicholas Croft, continuing to pretend as if she didn’t know anything, "Uncle Nicholas, how about you? Staying up late doesn’t have anything to do with catching a cold."
Giving Beatrice Hargrave a casual glance, Nicholas Croft looked at Hannah Hargrave and said, "Spring is dry, so I took a cold shower."
With a "pop", the chopsticks in Hannah Hargrave’s hand dropped to the marble floor. Her hands under the table unconsciously curled up as she forced a smile at Nicholas Croft, bending down to pick up the chopsticks on the marble floor.
Bending down under the table, Hannah Hargrave’s smile disappeared from her face. With one hand, she picked up the chopsticks, her slightly squinted eyes thinking about sothing unknown.
"It seems a bit hot wearing this," Taking advantage of the mont Hannah Hargrave bent down to pick up the chopsticks, Beatrice Hargrave deliberately tugged at her sweater collar, acting as though unintentionally. However, the man across knew that the girl was doing it on purpose to show him, because he clearly saw the row of marks on her collarbone, which he had left last night.
