The setary lowered her head as she handed over the bag. “Mr. Undvike.” 

“Thanks for your hand work I’ll give you a false next year,” Ellas sald. After taking the bag from the secretary, he closed the door. The living room was dimly lit by aring of recessed lights. Ellas found Ashley’s bag tossed on the sofa. 

She often brought work home and visually took her bag to the study to lock in the safe. However, tonight was different. The moment she walked in, he pulled her into a passionate kiss. They lost themselves in the beat of the moment, shedding house and leaving her bag forgotten on the couch.

Ellas glanced upstairs. After confirming no one was there, he opened Ashley’s bag and found a box of pills. The blister pack had two rows already empty 

He retrieved a blister pack from the bag and popped out two rows of pills to match Ashley’s. After ensuring they looked identical, he placed them back in Ashley’s box 

With a satisfied smile, Elias put the bag back. He picked up the clothes scattered on the flour as he walked upstairs. After tossing them into the laundry basket, he climbed into bed. Then, he wrapped his anns and Ashley and drifted off to sleep. 

Meanwhile, in Weston, Emelie felt exhausted and decided to soak in a bath 

She was so tired that she fell asleep in the tub. 

When she was jolted awake by the doorbell, Emelle realized the bathwater had turned cold. 

She dried off, put on her pajamas, and strattled to the door. Through the smart video doorbell, she saw William standing outside. 

She hesitated about whether she should open the door. Eventually, she potion a jacket, zipped it up to her chin, and then opened the door a crack 

“Mr. Middleton, what can I do for you?” 

William looked up and noticed how she clutched the door, as if ready to stam it shot if needed. He smirked and held up a food container. 

““You haven’t had dinner yet, have you?“” 

Emelle stared at him in disbelief. She was genuinely surprised that he had come to deliver food to her. This was unlike William. He was usually the one being served, not the other way around. 

“Thank you, Mr. Middleton,” she said, reaching for the container, But William didn’t let go. She looked at him in

William noticed her damp hair and guessed she had just bathed. Her face was pale and flawless, like a finely carved statue, His voice deepened. “Are you really so wary of me that you won’t even let me in?” 

Emelie responded softly, “Mr. Middleton, it’s late. It wouldn’t be proper focus to be alone together. I wouldn’t want to damage your reputation.” 

William thought she was quite adept at speaking in riddles. Just as he was about to say something, Emelie’s phone rang. 

The hotel corridor was eerily quiet, making her ringtone sound harsh and out of place. Emelie quickly retrieved her phone from her coat pocket. 

William clanced down and saw the caller ID. It was Charles. 

“Is it appropriate for a man to call you so late?” William coldly asked. 

Emelie replied, “Mr. Davis is probably calling about Elena’s matter. It’s not personal” 

William raised his chin slightly. “Then answer it on speaker. I want to listen too.” 

His tone was accusatory, almost as if he was catching her red-handed. 

Emelie wanted to shut the door, but William anticipated her move. He promptly placed a three–tiered mahogany food box in the doorway to block her ext. If she tried to close the door forcefully, she would knock over the food box 

Emelle was speechless. She had nothing to hide. 

Emelie answered the phone and tumed on the speakerphone. “Mr. Davis?”
