Chapter 54 Angela felt a bit surprised.

'He could've taken care of his shower last night, but he had me do it. Is he messing up with me?' she wondered.

Seeing Angela's displeased expression, Kevin couldn't resist speaking up. "Everything okay with Mr. Sinclair?" Angela shook her head, "No issues. You guys can head in. I've got to head to work."

"Sure thing."

Once Angela left, Kevin and Tony went into the villa.

Kenneth's face was cold. "What was Angela asking you at the door?"

"She asked about how you bath."

Kenneth frowned, a touch of coldness in his eyes. "What did you tell her?"

"I said you usually handle it yourself."

Feeling Kenneth's mood sour, Kevin had a bad feeling.

"Did I mess up, Mr. Sinclair?" he asked.

Kenneth's expression stayed indifferent. "Next time Angela asks about me, just tell her you're not sure."

"Got it."

He rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

Their relationship was already tense, and he didn't know how to handle it if she found out he lied.
