Byron's gaze was piercing, and it made Cora's face burn with shame as he stared at her intently.
Then, she realized what he was staring at, and she quickly covered the red mark on her skin.
"This was a mosquito bite."
"We're in a five-star hotel, and there are still mosquitoes?"
Byron looked at her with a mocking smile, but he was angry.
It was as if she had just lied through her teeth.
It was autumn, and they were indoors, so the air was cooling.
However, the atmosphere around him seemed to be heavy, causing the executives following him to shiver inexplicably.
Judging from their conversation just now, the executives immediately understood that they had just witnessed Byron being cheated on.
Aware that they had invaded Byron's privacy, they worried that they would be facing the consequences.
Meanwhile, Cora sensed the occasional contemptuous glances from the executives, and she realized right away that they regarded her as an adulteress.
Byron seemed to be of the same mind.
She could only explain, "I wasn't bitten by the mosquito while at the hotel. It happened in a nearby park."
Last night, Martin was bored, so she took him to the park nearby for a stroll.
She figured that was when she got bitten.
After listening to her explanation, Byron narrowed his eyes with a pointed gaze as he seemingly pondered the truthfulness of her words.
The executives remained silent, afraid of being implicated by Cora, who they thought had an affair.
However, luck didn't seem to be on Cora's side.
Just when Cora had finally explained everything, the elevator behind her suddenly let out a chime.
"Cora, you forgot your room keycard."
The sound of footsteps was followed by Jerry's melodious voice.
At that moment, Cora felt the people around her froze.
She was the same as the air around them seemed to have frozen too.
She couldn't even remember how she turned around to face Jerry.
