Chapter 68

As the elevator arrived, Isabella and Gordon wasted no time leaving it. Inside

the elevator, Dariel patted his companion’s waist and said, “Check which

room they’re in.”

The girl didn’t dare to disobey and quickly ran after the duo.

Just as Isabella found her room for the night, the girl from earlier walked over

and smiled. “My makeup is smudged. I need to use a restroom.”

Isabella didn’t pay her any mind. Instead, she swiped the key card and turned

to Gordon. “This is me.”

“Can Luse your bathroom? I just want to rinse my mouth. The grease is

bothering me.” Gordon passed by her and went straight into the room.

Gordon went to the bathroom and rinsed his mouth. Soon, he came out and

Isabella was surprised since she hadn’t expected him to be so cooperative.

As they stood in the corridor, Gordon suddenly turned around and hugged

“If that’s the case, call my name instead,” he demanded as he released her.

Isabella sighed in relief and looked at him. Then, she called his name three

times. In the meantime, she couldn’t help but wonder why he was making

such a big fuss over such a small request.

Gordon smiled. It was obvious that he was in a fantastic mood. Then, he tilted

his head toward the door and said, “Go in. I’ll leave once your door is closed.”
