Chapter 1024
Evelyn’s gaze was fixated on the man’s retreating figure as he slipped into a room. The
door was left ajar; he seemed to have forgotten to shut it.
His silhouette vanished from Evelyn’s sight, snapping her out of her trance. She turned on
her heel and continued down the hallway in search of room 2809.
She hadn’t taken more than a few steps when a commotion erupted behind her. Glancing
back, she saw a woman in a garish outfit stumbling out of a room – directly opposite to the
one the man had entered.
The woman’s attire was both flashy and seductive, her nervousness betraying her as her
breast tapes almost fell. She was quite the sight, with her breasts practically on display.
Evelyn recognized her instantly despite the layered make up.
It was Susan! She was Bruce and Lucy’s daughter, who had come to Evelyn’s place with
her mother, all high and mighty, to pick a fight!
Evelyn was truly enraged as she saw her.
She was about to confront her, ready to settle old scores.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore she could approach, Susan, flushed and panting, clutched the hem of her dress and
darted into the room opposite the very same one the man had entered.
Susan was desperate to soothe her physical urges with a man. But Lysander, not only cast
her out but also kicked her brutally. Her soul felt as though it might split from the pain.
If she couldn’t have Lysander, she would settle for Joshua!
This man was Lysander’s business partner, so he surely would not be lack in wealth or
power. Despite being older, he was easy on the eyes.
Seizing Joshua wouldn’t be a loss for her.
Without hesitation, Susan entered Joshua’s room.
Evelyn froze and was shocked as she watched Susan slip into the room.
What was Susan doing in there with that man? Could it be that she was…
Evelyn crept closer and craned her neck to catch a glimpse inside the room.
But she couldn’t see anything with the entryway blocking the view.
“Mr. Joshua, you’re drunk. Please let me take care of you.” Susan’s voice echoed from
within, sultry and feigned weakness. “I’m very good at taking care… in all sorts of
positions…”

Evelyn’s skin crawled, and a wave of revulsion chilled her to the bone. She straightened
up quickly and distanced herself from the room.
How astounded and incredulous
Susan was doing that with this man!
Just like her father, utterly shameless!
Evelyn’s breath was ragged, her chest tight with indignation. She had never imagined that
this man could be so vile!
Angrily, she glanced at the room number. It was 2806!
She looked back at the room Susan had emerged from in disarray. It was 2809!
Wasn’t Thalassa supposed to be in 2809?
That was the room she was searching for.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe door was open; Evelyn walked straight in and began, “Excuse me, is this where…”
“Get out!” An explosive growl, seething with anger and intimidation, struck her ears like
the roar of a lion.
Evelyn recoiled. Her mind reeled as she bolted toward the elevator, and her heart
pounded with fear.
Thankful she could recognize the voice as a man’s — and as Lysander’s; otherwise, she
might have thought there was a beast ready to devour her lurking in that room.
She stepped into the elevator and frantically pressed the close button as if a single
second’s delay would cost her life.
As the doors slid shut. Evelyn pressed the button for the ground floor and patted her chest
to quell the adrenaline.
Was Lysander also in 2809? Could Thalassa be with him?
Then why did Susan run out of their room?
Evelyn’s mind swirled with questions, none of which she could answer.
She had come to the hotel seeking Thalassa, but instead, she found herself witness to a
skin-crawling scene and terrified by Lysander, from which her heart nearly leaped out of
her chest.
