The sound of splashing water echoed from the bathroom. Whitney shed her grimy dress and stepped into the bathtub.

Getting up, she went to Charles’ office. As usual, she watered the plants in the office and tidied up the things on his desk.

There were still open files on his desk, which could prove that his departure was abrupt, as Charles had always been a person who loved to organize and tidy up
