Chapter 407 Inflammatory Nosebleed

Rose's heart skipped a beat.

Seeing that she was about to be caught red-handed, she didn't have time to take in the room's layout. She hurried back along the original path in a panic and hid in the walk-in closet.

The door opened and then closed. Rose held her breath, but the footsteps were getting closer.

Jonathan returned to the room immediately. Not seeing Rose on the bed brought a sudden wave of disappointment. Had she left? But her unique scent was still in the air.

Jonathan felt a sense of loss as his eyes caught sight of the mask on the floor. As he picked it up, memories of last night flashed in his mind, particularly the embarrassed look on her face when her hand touched his chest. There was a sudden bang. Jonathan looked in the direction of the sound and confirmed it came from the closet. A heavy gasp came after the noise.

Rose... Jonathan was certain she was inside. Was she hiding from him? A doting smile spread across his face as he walked toward the closet.

Each step he took made Rose's heart beat faster. She regretted bumping into the closet when trying to avoid him. The sound must have caught his attention, so what should she do now? Rose held her breath even more, praying that he wouldn't come in. Perhaps her prayer worked because the footsteps suddenly stopped. A few seconds later, they resumed but moved away. Had he left? Rose breathed a sigh of relief. But now, how was she going to get out of here?

She listened carefully to the sounds outside. The man seemed to have left the room. Music started playing loudly outside.

Its soothing melody relaxed Rose slightly, and she lowered her guard as it masked some of the finer noises.

Hiding in the closet, Rose didn't notice someone slowly approaching until a figure appeared before her. She almost screamed but managed to stifle it and cover her mouth.

Rose peered at the man through the gap between the women's clothing and saw his back. Just from his height, she could tell it was the same oppressive, good-looking man from last night.

He wasn't wearing a mask now, but Rose wasn't curious about how handsome he might be. She just prayed he wouldn't turn around and see her.
