Gwenda's heart squeezed as she replied in a low voice, "What is it?"
"I forgot my towel."
Olivier's low voice caused Gwenda's ears to become hot. "Could you bring it over for me?"
Gwenda swallowed nervously. "I remember that there's a clean one in the bathroom..."
"I only use mine when I'm outside."
Olivier's reasoning was sound, and he did not forget to urge her. "Gwenda~ Hurry up!"
Her ears burning red, Gwenda could find no reason to refuse. "Um, sure. Where is it? I'll go get it."
"It's in my suitcase. The passcode is triple six."
"Okay."
Gwenda left her room to retrieve the towel.
She entered Olivier's room and located his suitcase, placing it on the floor and unlocking it with the passcode given.
The first thing she saw were his clothes.
Gwenda rummaged around and found his towel. The moment she picked it up, something fell out of it.
Looking down, she realised that it was a pair of black underwear...
It felt as if an explosion had gone off in her brain, her face turning red in an instant.
Having no time to think, she hurriedly stuffed the underwear back into the suitcase before shutting it.
She could never let him know that she had touched something so personal of his.
Otherwise, there would be no way she could explain it.
Gwenda patted her chest with guilt before looking down at her fingers. They felt inexplicably hot.
She had to calm down!
After taking a few deep breaths, Gwenda recomposed herself and left Olivier's room.
Just as she closed the door, Melanie's voice came. "Gwenda, why are you coming out of Olivier's room?"
Gwenda was so startled that she appeared guilty of something. "No— I... I was just helping Mr. Petit retrieve his towel."
"Retrieve his towel?"
Melanie gave her a once-over, the expression in her eyes indecipherable.
Afraid that she would misunderstand, Gwenda explained, "He said that his bathroom light was not working, so he's using my bathroom to shower now."
"Oh~ I see."
Melanie's expression shifted from indecipherable to suggestive, and it showed in her smile.
