Chapter 701 

“I told the security guard to let you in.” 

Michael had actually prepared himself for Jane to refuse. 

He was also ready for her to end their casual relationship. 

When he received her message telling him to come in, he was overjoyed, spinning around where he stood. 

With the security guard’s confirming gaze, he entered Jane’s community, heading toward her building. 

Meanwhile, Zachary received the news that Michael had entered Jane’s home. 

He couldn’t sit still for a moment, grabbing his coat and heading out. 

However, when he opened the door, he came face to face with the thinly dressed Nina. 

“Zachary…” 

Zachary paused slightly but still draped his coat over her shoulders, not allowing her to enter. He asked, ” What’s wrong?” 

Nina and Michael had discussed their plan at the escape room. 

But they had received news that Jane had left Zachary’s place. 

She thought that the two would have resolved their misunderstanding and would be stuck together. 

They were both adults, and Jane was someone who could let go. 

‘If Zachary was restrained and didn’t want anything to happen today, then they should at least have had dinner together, with him dropping her off afterward. 

So she guessed that the misunderstanding hadn’t been cleared up. 

She decided to adjust her plan. 

“Zachary, I’m really cold. Can I come in to take a hot shower? Otherwise, I’m going to get sick. If I get sick, I’ll just cause you trouble. If my godmother finds out, she’ll definitely blame you. I don’t want you to be scolded by her.” 

Zachary didn’t move and asked, “Didn’t the bodyguard take you home?” 

“He did.” Nina explained nervously, “Don’t scold them, they took me safely back home. But when I went out to buy something for dinner, I forgot my keys and locked myself out.” 

Zachary’s gaze shifted slightly. 

Nina had experienced her smart lock being tampered with while abroad and almost ended up being raped, leaving her with trauma, Since then, she stopped using smart locks and only used regular keys. 

But the downside was that she sometimes would accidentally lock herself out. 

“I’ll have someone come change your lock. I’ll make it so that it can be opened from the outside after it’s locked. You’ll have to use your keys when you leave, so you won’t forget them.”

Nina nodded, trembling. “Thank you, Zachary.” 

She felt regretful. “I was too careless. I’m sorry for causing you trouble.” 

Zachary looked at her pale lips and finally let her in. 

He took her to the guest room and handed her a new bathrobe. 

Nina accepted it, and the moment the bathroom door closed, a triumphant smile appeared on her face. 

Her time spent in the cold wind by the river wasn’t in vain. 

Zachary arranged for someone to buy clothes and left them at the guest room door. 

Just as he was about to turn to leave, he heard a loud noise from inside. 

He hesitated for a moment but still knocked on the door. 

“Nina?” 

There was no response.
