When Lorelai saw Elliot entering a private room to rest, she purposefully led the businessman to the door of the room where Elliot was.
“Don’t do this. Let me go…” Lorelai purposefully yelled in English, but the foreign businessman couldn’t comprehend it, thinking she was catering to him and became increasingly brazen with his actions.
During the tussle, she purposefully tore the front garments below her chest, which exposed parts of her skin.
Elliot, who was taking a rest inside the room, undoubtedly became aware of the commotion and dimly recognised Lorelai’s voice. He opened the door and she shoved the man in front of him away while yanking at her ripped clothes. In a panic, she yelled for help, “Elliot, save me…”
After that, before he could even respond, she flung herself into his arms and her clothes were half-open, which added an air of enticement to the situation.
“Go away!” Elliot became enraged and yelled at the businessman.
The businessman seemed puzzled; wasn’t it this girl who initiated it in the first place? Why was she now portraying herself as a victim?
However, this man was not interested in taking the risk. As soon as he recognised Elliot Presgrave, he frantically apologised and departed.
“What is happening?” Elliot pulled Lorelai’s hand away and helped her to sit down on the couch.
She raised her head with tears in her eyes as she bit her red lips in embarrassment and looked at him with a weak gaze that drew a man’s protection.
“Elliot, I am so thankful that I met you;
otherwise, I…” She finished her word as she grasped her clothes with one hand, leaving her clothes just partially covered.
“I’ll ask Rey to send you back,” he said as he took off his suit and placed it on her.
“Then, your suit…”
“Put it on first,” Elliot said as he turned away from her.
“Thank you, Elliot,” Lorelai replied. gratefully as he contacted Rey to send her home.
