Chapter 381 Thankfully The Room Is Soundproof Chapter 381 Thankfully The Room Is Soundproof Her eyes grew wide, and her mouth fell open. Huh? Aunt Lenora?

Lenora turned in her sleep, her brow furrowed. As the blanket slipped, the love bites on her neck were exposed.

Feeling a pang of guilt, Zachary quickly carried Harrietta out, softly closing the door behind him. "Did you see your aunt?" "Yes. Harrietta looked down, her fingers fidgeting.

So now, can

U tell me what this is all about?"

"Um. Uncle Zachary, didn't you say you brought me a gift? What is it?" Harrietta tried to change the subject

"Harrietta. Zachary's tone was serious.

"Uh? Uncle Zachary, did you call me?" She looked up at him innocently.

Seeing her feigned ignorance, he chuckled in exasperation. "Gift's off the table."

"No, Uncle Zachary, please!" She pouted, throwing her arms around his neck and giving him a few quick kisses on the cheek. "Uncle Zachary, you're the best." "I'm not the best at all. Just now, you didn't even want a hug and kept asking for your aunt."

Harrietta grinned sheepishly.

In that moment, Zachary was reminded of Lenora from the night before.

The same guilty expression, as if they'd been carved from the same mold.

Zachary couldn't bring himself to "interrogate" the little one anymore.

Oh, let her be. Who knew what went on in that little head of hers.

Zachary had brought Harrietta a beautiful music box. She loved it, playing with it in the living room for a long time, occasionally sighing, "When will Aunt Lenora wake up?" Lenora finally woke up around noon.

As she opened her eyes, she realized she was in an unfamiliar room.

Memories of the previous day came flooding back. She had gone to see Jasmine, but Zachary had shown up midway and taken her away. After that, things had taken a turn. Disjointed images flashed through her mind, bringing flush to her face. She closed her eyes, her long. curled lashes trembling slightly.

Lenora became acutely aware that she was completely uncovered under the blanket.

"Zach..." she began to call, but a sharp pain shot up her throat, leaving her speechless with teary eyes.

She looked around, propped herself up, and held the blanket to her chest. Reaching for the glass of water on the bedside table, she drank a few gulps, easing the soreness slightly. "Zachary Lenora forced out the word despite the pain.
