Lulu lowered her head, brushing against Zachary when she entered, while her handbag caught a corner of the towel.
While Zachary was left speechless, Lulu turned and saw.
"I, uh…" Zachary quickly wrapped the towel around himself again as he explained, "Your handbag caught my towel. So…"
Lulu ran off frantically, grabbed her phone before running out of Zachary's mansion without opening her eyes.
In Zachary's perspective, she was fleeing.
"It's not like I'm naked…" he muttered, although he was blushing up to his ear.

On the other hand, Lulu kept running for a long while before stopping.
"Oh, I slipped up… Well, at least he won't be there tomorrow."
It was no big deal, but she just found the situation and the vibes strange.
As she calmed down, she wondered if she had overreacted.
She was a babysitter, and he was her employer…
She turned on her laptop and saw an email invitation to a Franconian nutritional association forum to exchange childcare experiences.
She always read such emails and recorded everything, while occasionally offering her input.
She sat for a long while, and her hip was sore by the time it was over.
Stretching her back, she was going to take a shower when her phone jingled with a notification.
She picked up her phone to see a text from Irene.
[Isaac and I are coming back.]
[That's good. When?]
Lulu replied instantly, while Irene and Isaac traded glances on their flight.
She flashed a sly smile and quickly typed: [In a couple days.]
Lulu suspected nothing. [Got it. I don't know if I could make time to receive you, though.]
[You don't have to.]
