Chapter 174: He’s Still Carefully Holding a Grudge
Translator: 549690339
Enna Clark deliberately forced herself to ignore the feeling in her heart, calming herself down. In order to avoid making the misunderstanding worse, she immediately explained, “I just felt too hot, so I opened the window to get some fresh air.”
“Just getting some air?” Baron Lawrence was obviously unconvinced.
As soon as he had opened the door, he had seen this woman standing in front of the window, seemingly in a daze, with the moonlight shining on her, as if she wanted to escape.
This was the 7th floor, so her only escape option was to jump!
Thinking that she might jump made him unable to control his emotions!
“I really was just getting some air!” Enna emphasized the two words, “getting air,” almost swearing that was all she was doing.
Baron Lawrence examined her for two minutes before letting go of her shoulders and leaving, his face still looking unpleasant. He turned and walked away, saying, “Go take a shower.”
Enna adjusted her mood and followed him out of the bedroom.
There was no one else in the living room; Scott Harris and the others should have left already. The house was neat and clean, completely unaffected by the events. It was obvious that he had called someone to be very careful and thorough.
Enna walked into the master bedroom and found out what Baron Lawrence had called someone to do.
All the sheets and pillowcases on her bed had been replaced with new ones. The ultra-luxurious silk bedding looked incredibly out of place on her small bed, which was only 1.8 meters in size.
In addition to the new bedding, there was a new desk in her room.
A large pile of files was stacked on top of it, along with a laptop; it was easy to tell whose desk it was.
Baron Lawrence was still angry about the previous incident, so he ignored her and walked straight to the desk, frowning as he picked up a file and started reading it…
Enna dared not disturb him. She found her clean underwear in the wardrobe and was about to take it out when she heard him say in a deep voice, “Your pajamas are in the wardrobe, help yourself.”
As Enna opened the wardrobe, she was dumbfounded!
It contained not only her pajamas, but also many top-notch brand-name outfits that she didn’t even recognize.
However, hers only occupied one-third of the space; the remaining two-thirds were filled with men’s items.
Enna turned around, somewhat at a loss, “Baron, actually…”
Baron Lawrence had already resumed his work and seemed to have no
intention of paying attention to her.
Feeling somewhat humiliated, Enna closed the wardrobe door, and found her original pajamas in the corner. Wrapping herself in her underwear, she took everything into the bathroom with her.
She rented a two-bedroom, two living-room apartment, and the bathroom was basically just a place to wash hands and do laundry. It was only 10 square meters in size and, after placing the washing machine and sink, there was barely enough room to stand.
She placed her fresh clothes in the washing machine and covered them with the lid to avoid getting them wet during her shower. She then undressed and turned on the showerhead.
Warm water immediately poured out.
Enna took a long bath with shower gel, trying to refresh her mind and clear her thoughts.
It took her an unprecedented half an hour to finish the shower, dry herself off, and put on clean underwear and pajamas.
After changing, she washed her face and brushed her teeth. Once she was done, she opened the door and walked out.
As soon as she stepped out, she bumped into someone at the door.
Baron Lawrence looked down at her without expression and said with a thin lipped touch, “I thought you’d fall into the bathroom tonight.”
Why would she fall into the bathroom? Enna quickly recovered and realized he was making fun of her. He was still angry about the earlier incident, which left Enna feeling both annoyed and amused. She replied, “The bathroom is so small; I couldn’t fall in even if I wanted to..”
