The two maids on night duty saw Stephanie returning and looked a bit awkward.

They quickly stepped forward to stop her. “Mrs. Nelson, it’s very late. Perhaps you should go back to your apartment….

Seeing their expressions, Stephanie immediately sensed something was amiss. She ignored the malds and strode towards the master bedroom on the second floor.

As she walked up the stairs, a familiar man’s voice floated down from the room.

Stephanie bit her lip, held her breath, and reached for the doorknob with her trembling hand.
