Chapter 264 Elizabeths eyes narrowed.

Shouldnt we be sharing a room? she asked in a clipped tone.

Willow quickly replied, her voice bright with feigned cheer, Mrs.

James, youve misunderstood me! I only meant to ask if you and Mr.

James are reconciling.

Im genuinely happy for both of you! Elizabeths lips curved in a faint smile, her response calm but firm.

Seeing that Im back, of course, weve reconciled.

Taking the backpack from Willows hands, she added, Ill take this upstairs myself.

Im a bit tired and want to catch up on some sleep, so dont call me for dinner.

Without waiting for a reply, she turned and made her way upstairs.

Heat up the milk in the fridge and bring it to the master bedroom, Elijah instructed Willow as he followed Elizabeth.

Upstairs, Elizabeth closed the bedroom door and locked it.

Moments later, the sound of the door unlocking startled her.

She turned around to see Elijah standing there, a key in hand, staring at her.

Caught off guard and half-dressed, Elizabeth hastily pulled on her pajamas.

Her back was smooth and graceful, her waist slender and delicate, with firm, curved hips.
