Chapter 115 It’s Her

Joanthan’s eyes turned icy.

“How did she get here?”

Apart from Rose, only Zac knew he was here. Zac hesitated, his confidence waning in the face of Jonathan’s hidden anger.

“She had been looking for you, so I brought her here. After all, we’re still friends.”

Jonathan furrowed his brows.

Zac’s heart skipped a beat as he continued, “I was originally coming up with her, but I received a phone call at the last minute, so I let her come up first. Is everything okay?”

He glanced at the room and felt a sense of familiarity. Suddenly, he caught something, and his pupils widened.

“Last night… Who was it? Were you set up by someone? Which woman?”

His gaze took on an accusatory tone as he continued, “Behaving recklessly like this after being drugged, how will you face your little beauty?”

Jonathan knew he had misunderstood. He didn’t want to explain, but his reproachful gaze seemed to genuinely favor Rose. His chilliness eased slightly.

“It’s her.”

With that, he left the room. As he passed by Anastasia, he didn’t even spare her a glance and headed downstairs. However, Zac was left puzzled in the room. Which “her“?

He was momentarily unable to react, but suddenly his eyes lit up as if a lightbulb had gone off in his head.

“It’s the little beauty!”

He had always believed that even if Jonathan was careless under the influence, he wouldn’t fall for just any woman. He breathed a sigh of relief and followed suit, leaving the room.

His attention was now fully absorbed in understanding what had happened last night, completely forgetting about Anastasia’s presence.

Anastasia was rarely ignored in such a way in Regalia. Her face darkened slightly. Just now, she had vaguely overheard the words “little beauty“, which made her aware of it.

Her intuition told her that the “little beauty” Zac was referring to was the “wife” in Jonathan’s phone.

“Anastasia, aren’t you leaving?”

Zac suddenly turned around when she seemed lost. She immediately put on a smile, quickening her pace to catch up. In the hotel lobby, Jonathan had the manager check the surveillance footage.

However, the remaining footage only showed a staff delivering wine to the room. It didn’t capture the suspicious woman. Even the footage of Rose coming and going had disappeared.

The manager then brought the wine–delivery staff in.

“When I went up, I met a young lady in a red dress. She sprained her ankle, and I helped her. Nothing happened afterward…”

As Jonathan listened to her description, he was certain that someone had tampered with the wine. With a hint of coldness in his eyes, he made a straightforward decision.

“Dismiss the staff who leaked the guest room numbers last night and this morning.”

Then, he turned and left. The hotel manager knew that he had long–term booked room 602 and was an important guest. However, even for an important guest, they couldn’t decide the hotel’s staffing.

He didn’t take it seriously. Just a few minutes later, the hotel manager received a phone call from the top- level boss himself.

His face turned grave, and he even felt a bit frightened as he listened to the instructions. He promptly arranged for the staff members to resign. He wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Who could have thought it was Mr. Finch? Moreover, Finch Group had decided to acquire Elysian Hotel on such short notice. Jonathan had been lenient in not firing him along with the others.

As Zac drove up, Jonathan and Anastasia waited by the roadside. The two stood side by side, appearing like a perfect couple.

Just as Rose stepped out of the car, she immediately spotted the conspicuously eye–catching couple and recognized the woman from the photo. Had she come after she left last night?

She felt something constricting her chest, making her anxious. After she left last night, her mind was filled with her star escort husband’s urge not to let her leave.

Those words were like a spell, even making her feel as though his feelings for her were not as simple as a business deal. If she hadn’t left something behind the room, she wouldn’t have turned back.

While she stood there, her heart ached. She watched as the two of them got into the car. She didn’t even feel like going back inside to retrieve her belongings.

the car.

“Please take me home,” she said blankly as she got back into the

On the way, her mind was in a daze. Suddenly, her star escort husband’s call came through.

Seeing the words “star escort ex–husband” on the screen, she shook her head vigorously, trying to dispel those feelings. He was already her ex–husband, what was she thinking?

Exhaling deeply, she pressed the end call button without hesitation. In Zac’s luxury car, Jonathan furrowed his brows. She hung up on him?
