Chapter 427

Phoenix Town.

A little past seven o'clock, Luke and Bianca walked out of their room to prepare to

return to A City.

When Bianca passed by the next room, she saw that the door was ajar. She casually glanced inside.

She saw a long-haired girl in a white bathrobe leaning back on a pink cushion in a daze.

A bunch of purple wind chimes tinkled above her head.

The girl's pretty little face was streaked with tears, and she seemed to be in a daze as if she could not hear...

Bianca was stunned when she saw that face. It looked like Scarlett Quincy, the waitress she knew from Blue Honors.

Bianca wanted to take a closer look but heard the vintage carved door shut with an abrupt bang, immediately cutting off her curious gaze.

She could not help but tug at Luke's arm. "The girl in the next room looks like Scarlett..."

Luke looked at her in confusion. "Scarlett? Who?"

Luke was so indifferent to other women that he could not remember their faces or names.

Bianca reminded, "Don't you remember? It's the Blue Honors waitress whose Persian cat was drugged..."

Luke remembered the incident at the mention of it.

His face darkened at the thought that the woman's cat had hurt Bianca. "Her cat scratched you, and we haven't gotten even."

Bianca felt that they were not on the same level of communication.

She sighed. "It was just an accident. I think the girl looks nice. She didn't do it on purpose... I wonder why she's here with tears on her face. Do you think she ran into some bad guy?"

Bianca thought of the intense events in the next room last night. The girl kept crying, "No." It did not look like she was playing hard to get. She cried her eyes out as if she was violated.

When she saw that the girl in the room was Scarlett, Bianca was immediately struck with compassion.
