Rosa didn't dare to stay in the room any longer. She felt guilty.
Yes, she was a coward. She was afraid of seeing those things that she shouldn't see.
Such things could tear down her defences.
Rosa didn't want to stay any longer. She turned around and was about to open the door.
However, she saw Aunt Abbie with some desserts as soon as she opened the door.
The two bumped into each other, and the glass of hot chocolate poured on Rosa.
"Oh no!" Aunt Abbie panicked. She immediately put down the glass and got tissues for Rosa to wipe her clothes.
Rosa quickly wiped herself with a tissue and said, "Aunt Abbie, it's okay. I'm fine."
"I'm sorry, Madam. I thought you might want a drink, so I made you some chocolate. I'm really sorry." Aunt Abbie was apologetic, and she seemed to be at a loss.
Rosa comforted her, "Aunt Abbie, it's fine. I will go back and wash up right away."
"I'm sorry. You must feel very sticky. You can go upstairs and take a shower," Aunt Abbie quickly suggested.
"No, I'll go back and shower. It's night now. No one will notice."
"This can't do. These clothes are very expensive, right? It won't be easy to wash if the stain sits in. Madam, go take a shower. Your clothes are in the closet, and I wash them now and then. They are all clean," Aunt Abbie pushed Rosa and said.
"No, I really don't need it..."
"Madam, just take a quick shower. Mr. Henry hasn't come here for many years. There's no one here. Go upstairs quickly!" Aunt Abbie pushed Rosa up the stairs and said, "I'm going to check on Luke and the food. It'll be ready when you come down."
Seeing this, Rosa could not refuse.
He hadn't come back for a long time, so it would be fine for her to take a shower.
Thinking of this, she couldn't care less anymore. After all, she could send the clothes back later.
Ever since Rosa went up, Aunt Abbie immediately stood at the door and looked around.
"Why hasn't he come yet?" Aunt Abbie rubbed her hands uneasily.
At this time, Luke came over and said, "The pasta is ready to eat."
Aunt Abbie glanced at Luke and asked, "Have you called Mr. Henry yet? Why isn't he here yet?"
"Yea, I did!"
"What did Mr. Henry say?"
"He didn't say anything. It was very noisy, and he hung up the phone."
"Oh my, did he hear you?" Aunt Abbie rubbed her forehead. Luke was so undependable. He must have ruined the plan.
Luke was confused. Did he do anything wrong? he wondered.
At this moment, a familiar luxury car drove over.
"It's Mr. Henry's car!" Luke had keen sight and noticed it at once.
Aunt Abbie immediately trotted over and opened the car door for him.
The car door opened, and Henry's tall and slender figure got out of the car.
"Sir, you're finally here. Madam was about to leave if you came any later."
"Where is she?" The man's face did not change much, but his footsteps were hurried, which betrayed his true feelings.
"Madam is upstairs!" said Aunt Abbie as she ran.
The man didn't say anything and walked up the stairs. He smelled like alcohol.
Seeing this, Aunt Abbie frowned. Did he drink?
And he even drove? That was dangerous!
......
Rosa didn't lock the door.
She still had the same bad habit from five years ago.
When he pushed the door open, there was no change in the room, but there was no trace of her in it either.
The only difference was there were sounds of water coming from the bathroom.
On the big bed, there was her formal wear from the morning.
Henry's eyes darkened, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
The sound of water gradually stopped.
The man smiled and walked over. The next second, he opened the door.
The sudden voice made Rosa scream in horror.
"Ah..." She, who was wrapped in a bath towel, quickly turned around and widened her beautiful eyes in shock.
The man suddenly raised his head and gave her an elegant smile. At the same time, his gentle and mellow voice rang out. "Good evening, my dear wife!"
Rosa quickly came to her senses and hurriedly pulled her bath towel. Her hair was still dripping with water.
"You... Why are you here?" Rosa clutched the bath towel in front of her chest, looking particularly nervous.
Didn't Aunt Abbie say that he hadn't been here for a long time?
"This is my home!" His eyes were deep like bottomless pools of water as he stared at her.
Rosa felt a little uncomfortable. She avoided his eyes and frowned as she explained, "Aunt Abbie accidentally poured some chocolate on me, so I am borrowing the bathroom. I'll change and leave right away."
