Chapter 91

Both of them seemed to sense each other at the same time, and they froze.

Just then, the elevator lights flickered back on. Charles glanced over at Yolanda and saw Samuel standing

beside her.

Samuel was looking down at his phone, trying to call someone outside. He glanced up when he noticed Charles staring at him, his expression puzzled.

Charles quickly looked away, tightening his grip around Yolanda’s waist.

Yolanda let out a breath she hadn’t realized she was holding, catching a glimpse of Ian, who had somehow slipped quietly to stand just behind her.

She felt her whole body flush with heat, lowered her head, and even the tips of her ears were burning.

Everything that had happened between her and Ian went against all the rules she’d grown up with. It was the first time she’d ever felt this kind of betrayal, and she couldn’t help but feel anxious.

She wasn’t like Charles, who could cheat and still flirt with his wife at home without a care in the world.

Yolanda was so tense, Charles assumed she was just frightened. He reassured her in a low voice, “Don’t worry. We’ll be out of here soon.”

Yolanda swallowed hard and gently rested against his chest.

Sure enough, the maintenance crew showed up in no time. They apologized to those stuck inside, then quickly pried open the elevator doors with their tools.

Yolanda stuck to Charles like glue the entire time.

The director chatted briefly with the group, then left with Ian in tow.

Charles pulled out a cigarette and lit it, a crooked smile tugging at his lips. “Samuel, I’ll get Yolanda home first, alright?”

Samuel looked over at Yolanda and offered her a tissue.

She pressed her lips together and murmured a quiet thank you.

Charles saw the exchange, his brows knitting together.

Once they were back in the car, Yolanda checked her phone, but Ian still hadn’t messaged her.

Her heart was hanging in suspense, both thrilled and uneasy.
