When her skin touched the warm water, the pores all over her body slowly opened. She couldn't help closing her eyes and sighing. It was comfortable!
After soaking for more than half an hour, she felt hungry.
So she got up, went back to her room to change her clothes, and called to order dinner.
The lunch was soon served.
She had never paid much attention to food. While she was eating in the living room, her phone suddenly rang.
She looked around and found that it was a plane in the hotel. She quickly picked it up and answered it.
The pleasant voice of the receptionist sounded. "Hello, is it Mr. White?"
Victoria Kaur was stunned. She was still holding chopsticks in her hand and said, "He's not here now. What's the matter?"
"Hello, here's the thing. There's a Miss Lee downstairs claiming to be Mr. White's friend. If you want to find him, can you tell him for me?"
Victoria Kaur opened her mouth in shock and dropped her chopsticks on the table.
After a while.
"Hello, are you still here?"
She quickly picked up her chopsticks and said in a slightly flustered voice.
"Uh, Charlie Peck went out and won't come back until afternoon. How about this, let her go up directly!"
"Okay!"
The phone was hung up.
After a long time, Victoria Kaur was in a state of shock.
A friend of Charlie Peck?
How could she not know that he had a female friend?
A moment later, someone knocked on the door.
She quickly put down her knife and fork and walked over to open the door.
She can't deny that the moment she opened the door, she was somewhat amazed.
The woman in front of her was wearing a long white lace dress. Her black hair fell to her waist. She was thin and her skin was white. Although her facial features were not delicate, she looked gentle and quiet, exuded a strong ambiance of literature and art.
Never being unabashed, but she made people like her at a glance.
"Are you Mrs.White?"
She smiled gently and reached out to her. "Hello, my name is Marilyn Lee. I'm Charlie's friend."
"Charlie?"
It was the first time that Victoria had heard someone call Charlie Peck in this way. She was slightly stunned, and then she quickly reached out to shake hands with her. Her smile looked kind of embarrassed, "Hello."
Marilyn tilted her head and looked into the room. She asked, "Where's Charlie?"
"He went out for business. He won't come back until afternoon."
Victoria suddenly remembered that the two of them were still standing at the door. She quickly stepped aside and let her in. She smiled and said, "Come in and have a seat please."
Marilyn nodded and entered the room.
The room was a little messy. After she finished soaking in the hot spring to wipe her hair, she didn't have enough time to clean up the towel. And the slippers changed from Charlie Peck were kicked by her, and even half of the takeout was still on the table.
Victoria was a little embarrassed when she saw Marilyn looking around the room.
She quickly asked, "Have you had the meal? If not, do you need me to order food for you?"
Marilyn Lee shook her head and smiled gently. "No, thank you!"
After a pause, she added, "I'm in poor health and my family has never allowed me to eat food outside."
Victoria frozen for a while.
Looking at the simple dishes on the table, she felt inexplicably unhappy.
Marilyn didn't seem to notice it. She just walked back and forth in the room, sometimes touching the clothes on the shelf, and sometimes flipping through the books on the table, as if they were familiar with each other.
Victoria frowned and leaned against the door. Her eyes grew colder and colder.
