Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 422

Although Mamie had never met Owen or knew of his relationship with Roseanne, nothing could stifle her desire to vent her frustrations.

After lunch, the trio returned to the lab.

Mamie put her hands on her hips and sighed, "Sure, it's spacious, but cleaning is such a chore."

Suddenly—

"Excuse me, is this Room C116?"

Two janitors appeared at the door, cleaning supplies in hand.

"Uh, yes, this is C116. What can I do for you?"

"That's great! Let's get started then."

The other cleaner quickly chimed in, and they both sprang into action.

Mamie blinked, "Wait, are you sure you've got the right place?"

"No mistake, it's C116. The admin office told us to come clean up."

The admin office?

Mamie and Roseanne glanced at Scales, wondering if he was behind this.

He shook his head. He wasn't capable of such a feat.

"Who could it be? We didn't tell anyone else we were cleaning today. But hey, someone's cleaning for us, so I'm not complaining..."

She then grabbed a chair, sat down, and tore open a bag of potato chips.

Not only did she start munching, but she also offered some to Roseanne and Scales.

Roseanne took a chip, but her mind was elsewhere, harboring a guess.

Was Owen feeling guilty for not being able to help, trying to make amends this way?

It really wasn't necessary...

Mamie nudged Scales, "Aren't you going to grab some?"
