Bab 149: Liquid on the lips- Part 1

Madeline felt her blood drain from her face. Her throat went dry by looking at the person who stood at the door. She had seen James lock the door and had heard it click too. She had thought it would be safe with no one witnessing James who had stepped inside the powder room, but she should have known better that Calhoun would know. 

Calhoun always knew, and there was no hiding anything from him. 

For a person who turned the fork into a bunch of rose petals, she doubted if there was anything that he couldn't do. 

"I was looking for the restroom," said Calhoun with a cold smile on his lips, "I didn't know we had a common room." He took one step forward and Madeline instead of taking one step back like she always did, took two steps ahead and quickly made her way to where Calhoun was.
