Chapter 27 Settle the Bill Later

The moment Rose finished speaking, she kissed Jonathan with lips that felt. like they were on fire.

For a moment, Jonathan was stunned.

Rose was like a fiery spark. Though she kissed without much technique, she easily managed to set him on fire.

“Damn it! You asked for this yourself,” Jonathan cursed.

Why did he have to bother taking her to the hospital? She was the one who lit. the fire, so she had to put it out herself!

Things were getting heated up.

The bodyguards had already hauled Hank away from the bathroom.

The next day, as the sky grew brighter, Rose woke up feeling dizzy.

She had a splitting headache. Other than that, she felt sore all over her body. It was as if she had been run over by a truck.

A certain memory of something that took place in the bathroom came to mind. Then, the rest of the memories came rushing back. There were scenes in the bathroom and the bedroom too….

Rose sat up in fright. Turning around, she spotted the man lying beside her.

For a moment, she felt overwhelmed.

What had she done this time?

She realized she had done it again…

Rose felt so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear.

Suddenly, she spotted the man’s shirt on the floor. Clenching her jaw, she carefully got out of bed in an attempt to escape.

But just as she picked up the shirt, the man’s deep and charismatic voice rang out behind her, “What’s the matter? You’re trying to escape after having your fill again?”

Rose stopped moving.

Caught red–handed, she felt so mortified that her whole face turned crimson.

After taking a deep breath, Rose turned around. When she saw the man staring at her chest, she realized something.

Instantly, she crouched down and covered her body with the shirt. Then, she glared viciously at the man on the bed. “What are you looking at? You pervert!”

Jonathan arched his brow. He looked like he was not satisfied yet. “Who’s the pervert here? I remember that you were the one who kissed me first. And then

“Stop! Stop right there!”

Rose’s face was burning. She did not forget any of the details from last night. I’m sorry… Why don’t I pay you? Then we’ll treat it as-

What happened last night would be nothing more than a transactional exchange.

But before she could finish her sentence, Jonathan seemed to deduce what she was trying to say. He interrupted her. “Come here!” His voice sounded cold. He seemed to be upset somehow.

Rose

hesitated, but after thinking about it, she knew she was in the wrong. So, she complied and walked up to the bed.

Still, Jonathan did not seem satisfied. “Get on the bed!”

Rose took a deep breath. She acted as if she was making a huge sacrifice. She placed her hand on the bed to support her.

A hand reached out and pulled her forward. In an instant, the large blanket covered her, and with it came an intense manly scent.

“You can pay, but we’ll settle the bill later, along with this one!”

The temperature in the room rose quickly.

Meanwhile, on the first floor of the hotel, Dawn kept sobbing until her eyes

turned red.

She knew that Rose was in danger, but she dared not save the latter. As the guilt weighed upon her, she finally broke down. “Rose, I’m sorry… I’m so sorry

She kept sobbing as she apologized.

Over in the distance, Evan had been sitting in the car throughout the night. When he heard someone sobbing, he got out of the car to take a look.

When he drew nearer to Dawn, he heard her mentioning the name “Rose“. He instantly thought of the Rose he knew.

“Is it Rose Shaffer? Did something happen to her?” Evan asked uneasily.

Looking up, Dawn saw his anxious expression. As if holding onto a lifeline, she said, “Rose is in danger. Please save her… Rose is…”

Dawn briefly told Evan about how Rose had been threatened last night.

Evan was worried about Rose, but he was also slightly relieved that the husband Rose told him about last night had only been an excuse. He thought that he still had a chance since she was unmarried.

Evan immediately pulled some strings using the connections the Spencer family had. The hotel staff was ordered to check every room thoroughly.

The commotion startled everyone in the hotel, including Kelly.

The paparazzo she invited over to the hotel was keeping watch on the 18th floor. He was waiting for a chance to take a shot of the earth–shattering incident so that he could expose it as soon as possible.

Soon, the hotel manager completed the investigation on the 17th floor. Evan and some other people were there as well. They confirmed that there was nothing suspicious here.

Once on the 18th floor, the hotel manager grew nervous. “Mr. Spencer, Room 1801 is occupied by Mr. Edwards from Edwards Construction.”

Hank was famous in Aquastead for being a pervert.

Evan’s expression hardened. “Open the door!”

The hotel manager could tell that if they did not open the door right now, Evan

would knock it down himself. They feared that it would cause too much of a ruckus, which might disturb the VIP resting in the presidential suite upstairs.

The hotel manager immediately took out the backup card and swiped it to unlock the door.
