章 297: A Wave of Scandal

On the way back to the hotel, Lilia walked side by side with Harold. Dina, Rini and Clifford followed behind them.

Harold's gaze continued to fix on the strand of hair that had fallen from Lilia's hairdo. Without thinking, he stretched out his hand and tucked the strand behind her ear. Harold felt a sharp gaze from behind him and realized what he had just done.

The man hurriedly withdrew his hand and looked away. Harold had gotten so used to patting Lilia on the head or helping to arrange her hair that he forgot that things had changed. That woman already belonged to another man. Harold couldn't touch her carelessly, especially with a jealous husband like Jean.

After an awkward silence, Harold coughed and asked, "Did you send the news of Shirley's abortion?"

Lilia's steps stopped when she heard that question. The hem of her costume robe was almost trampled on by Dina, who was following right behind her.
