Bab 286: Late Night Conversation

Andrew followed behind Claire who was galloping up the stairs with a terrifying expression. The man repeatedly opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he finally closed it again. Claire seemed to have forgotten that it was James who told them to stay in the hall until he returned.

The man sighed and tried to calm his wife. "I know, this is all my fault. Walk a little slower, okay? I'm afraid you will fall because of these high heels you wear." Andrew persuaded.

But Claire ignored the man. She arrived on the third floor and headed straight to the bedroom occupied by the young couple. Claire took a brief breath before knocking on the door.

"Lilia, are you still awake? This is Claire," the woman called in a steady voice. She didn't want to wake Lilia up when her sister-in-law was asleep.
