Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 169 It Was Too Late

She entered the room and noticed that the wooden floor was wet. Following the trail of water stains, it led to the bathroom.

Violeta rushed to the bathroom door and knocked anxiously. "Bro? Bro, what's going on?"

Didn't he say he didn't drink that water? Could Hattie have played some other tricks??

Hayden, who was lying in the bathtub, heard Violeta's voice and suddenly opened his eyes. He turned to face the bathroom door, cleared his throat, and said, "Niall's not here."

Huh?

Violeta was stunned to hear Hayden's voice from the bathroom.

"Hayden? Why are you here? Isn't this Niall's room?"

No way...

Are Hayden and Niall

Just as Violeta was trying to make sense of it all, Hayden's voice came from inside again. "I swapped rooms with him today."

"Why?"

Hayden closed his eyes and leaned back on the bathtub pillow. "That water jug, weren't you worried there was something wrong with it?"

Violeta frowned. "How did you know? You didn't drink from that water jug, did you!?"

"I did."
