The hotel manager appeared a bit flustered. “Miss, the fire happened so suddenly. We had to quickly find rooms at the nearby hotels, and the availability is quite limited. It’s really difficult to arrange.

“Please don’t worry. I’ll find another solution,” he said, but his voice was full of hesitation.

nodded and stood there, waiting.

Benjamin’s gaze darkened, though he remained silent.

After a few calls, the manager came back with an apologetic expression. “I’m terribly sorry, but we couldn’t find any rooms at the moment.”

At this, Benjamin finally spoke up. “Give her the room. I’ll figure something else out.”

I took the key. If I hadn’t known Benjamin, I would have simply grabbed the key and walked away without a second thought.

But I had known him for quite some time, and he had helped me before, so I couldn’t just leave.

After thinking for a moment, I asked, “Mr. Southwell, since there are no rooms left, would you mind sharing the room for the night?”

Benjamin immediately rejected the idea. “No, I’ll find another place to stay.”

His words left me feeling oddly disappointed, and even Hera seemed restless.
