Chapter 11
“Who?”
That low voice..
Genevieve and the three kids frose in place instantly.
“Dong!”
“Dong!”
Dongl
The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer, each one stepping on Genevieve’s heart
Genevieve’s legs were shaking.
She closed her eyes.
We’re screwed
The footsteps stopped behind Genevieve
“Miss, are you going out?”
Hmm?
Genevieve turned around and saw the hotel manager holding a flashlight, probably coming to fix the power outage.
Tm really sorry, but we had a problem with our power system. We’ve already sent someone to fix it urgently. If you need to go out, please be careful.”
Genevieve realized it, forced a fake smile, nodded, “Okay.”
Im sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you?
Genevieve’s body was still trembling slightly. As soon as the manager left, she didn’t have time to relax Just as she was about to leave, a few beams of light shone from the other end of the corridor.
Genevieve was shocked, but she quickly grabbed the clothes of the three kids and pulled them into the room in an instant.
Arthur came over and had a chat with the manager
The manager greeted Arthur very respectfully.
“Mr. Pendelton.”
When can it be restored!”
The manager said, “Mr. Pendelion, don’t worry, he will recover soon. We are very sorry for my inconvenience caused to you.”
Arthur thought it was stringe that the power went out.
They said they were hacked, but only this floor suddenly lost power. It seems like the other side had a specific target.
He has sent someone to investigate, but there is no clue for now.
Back in the presidential suite, Arthur glanced around Genevieve’s room. The room was tightly shut, be remembered Genevieve was afraid of the dark.
God sent the ghost messenger, Arthur walked over.
Pushed open the door.
It was quiet inside, the lights swept past, no one was seen
Did Genevieve run away during the chaos?
Arthur’s face suddenly darkened.
Step inside.
Arthur frowned at the sight in front of him.
“What are you doing?
Anhur suddenly appeared behind Genevieve. Genevieve was so scared that she shook and frose in place, forgetting to move.
She lifted her head, met Arthur’s gaze, and stuttered, “When..when did you come in?”
* Chapter 11
“What were you doing?”
Arthur looked at her posture and repeated the question
Genevieve was kneeling on both knees, in a very strange position leaning over the edge of the bed, with her hands still under the bed, doing who knows
what.
Genevieve realized she was still lying down, quickly got up, and forced a smile, Phone dropped, gotta pick it up.”
Arthur stared at Genevieve in disbelief, Do you really need to get down on the ground to find your phone? Do you sniff it with your nose?”
“L.” Genevieve struggled to find a reason, “Isn’t in dark because of the power outage? Can’t I use my hands to feel
Arthur squinted his eyes.
Genevieve nervously fidgeted with her fingers, not sure if he believed her or not.
He stayed silent for a few seconds, then asked, “Did you find it?”
Genevieve nodded, Found
All of a sudden, the lights came on and the room brightened up.
Anthur looked down, his gaze falling on the ground, looking at the phone that had fallen on the ground, raised an eyebrow and asked, “Is this what you call found?
Genevieve looked at the phone on the ground, smiled awkwardly, and immediately bent down to pick it up
By now, the three little guys under the bed had already huddled into a small group, tightly covering their mouths, afraid to make a sound
Arthur stared at Genevieve for a while, knowing that her behavior was strange, but he didn’t know what she was up to.
I glanced around the room and didn’t see anything unusual inside
Arthur looked away and said coldly, I will definitely take you back, so you better not try anything funny.
Genevieve just wanted Arthur to leave quickly at the moment, she tried to maintain a normal expression and said, “There are all your people outside, I can’t leave even if I want to.”
Can’t escape, really can’t escape,
Genevieve thought about the three little rascals hiding under the bed, she was literally in tears.
What’s this all about?
Buy one get one free?
Arthur took a few steps outside, Genevieve thought he was finally going out
When she breached a sigh of relief, Arthur just closed the door,
Genevieve choked up, looking at him, Aren’t you going our
Anbur down on the sofa, raised an eyebrow, This is my room, you want me to leave?”
“Isn’t this an empty room? Genevieve turned her head and noticed a few documents on the table and Arthur’s clothes hanging in the cabinet,
Genevieve realized that the room she randomly chose was Arthur’s room
Arthur raised his thin eyebrows, lit a cigarette, and leisurely looked at her.
It seemed like she was given a choice of time, to go out or to stay.
And Genevieve would never go out no matter what.
The three Bile guys are now all hiding under the bed together.
If Arthur found out, Genevieve couldn’t imagine.
Meeting Arthur’s
gaze,
Genevieve took a a deep breath and asked, “Can you change rooms?”
Do you want to stay in this room!”
Genevieve nodded and gave a sweet smile.
Arthur chuckled, “Nope.”
Genevieve couldn’t hold back her smile, “Can we talk about this?”
< Chapter 11
“Couldn’t.”
Arthur put
M
our the cigarette butt and stood up, saying in a low voice,Tm going to take a shower, if you’re not going our, stay here and sleep together.”
Watching Arthur walk into the bathroom, Genevieve scratched her head. Under the bed, Penelope popped out a little head and asked softly, “Mommy,
can we come out now?”
Genevieve glanced warily towards the bathroom, made a quiet gesture to the little guy, signaling him to hide back first.
Penelope obediently crawled back.
This room is no longer safe to stay in Genevieve had to move the children away. She quietly opened the door to see if anyone was outside, and locked eyes with Henry.
Genevieve was taken aback, she asked with a bitter smile, “Henry, aren’t you going to bed this late?”
Henry stood up from the sofa,I was waiting for Mr. Pendelson.”
Did you wait for him to sleep together?”
Henry took a deep breath.
Mrs. Pendelion really had some surprising things to say.
I had something to report to Mr. Pendelton”
He was taking a shower, why don’t you go back and rest first?”
“No, this is very important.”
Genevieve looked at him, feeling a headache. She knew Arthur’s assistant wouldn’t move unless told by someone the
Genevieve could only quietly close the door.
Outside was Henry, inside was Arthur, Genevieve was pulling her hair out in frustration,
Soon, Arthur finished showering and came out of the bathroom. He was wearing a black bathrobe, half open, showing off his strong and solid six–pack abs. The water, still wet, dripped down his hair as he stood there casually and lazily
Genevieve didn’t go out, he raised his eyebrows meaningfully, “Not leaving?”
Genevieve’s gaze landed on his abs, cheeks turning red, she looked away.
Thinking of Henry, she pointed to the door, Henry is at the door, looking for you”
Arthur looked at her, walked to the door, and opened it.
“What’s up?”
“Mr. Pendelion, the investigation into the power outage is complete, but it didn’t turn out as expected.”
Arthur took the tablet that Henry handed him and walked to the study.
The study.
Arthur looked at a surveillance screenshot, which clearly showed three kids,
Anhur looked at the three children, his eyes narrowed.
