Behind her, Jovana let out a sigh of relief, went to the bathroom next door to freshen up, and then left.
Just a wall apart.
Juliette leaned against the door and could vaguely hear Jovana and Harland talking outside.
She tugged at her ruined lips and gave a wicked smile.

afternoon.
When Jovana and Tatiana finished up the rest of the work, it had started raining heavily outside at some point.
The splattering sound of water kept hitting the floor-to-ceiling window and never stopped.
“Stay here for the night. The road up the mountain was hard to walk in the rain. It wouldn’t be good if something happened.”
Tatiana capped her pen and talked to Jovana.
Jovana tidied up the files on the table, put them in her bag, and looked up at the clock on the wall.
Thought for a bit and said, “It’s still early, let’s see if the rain will stop.”
She didn’t know Harland came to see Tatiana before she came. She already felt bad for bothering them, and it really wouldn’t be right to bother them again at night.
Unfortunately, this heavy rain didn’t stop all night.
Jovana had no choice and just stayed.
“Ms. Atherton, these are the clothes and toiletries Ms. Guerra got for you.” The maid handed her a tote bag, “Your room was on the second floor, right side, third one from the left.”
Jovana and Sheng said thanks, took the stuff upstairs, and pulled out her phone to text Armando.
Jovana texted, “Was at a social event at Jasmine Manor, it rained hard, couldn’t get back, I’ll go back tomorrow morning, don’t wait up for me.”
She looked down, typing, totally not noticing the sinister eyes watching her from the end of the hallway.
Here.
After Armando read the message, he almost crushed his phone in his hand, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing.
He laughed and opened the message Juliette had sent him not long ago.
“Mando, Ms. Atherton brought me to Jasmine Manor today to socialize with Ms. Guerra.”
Here’s a selfie attached below, looking playful and cute.
But Armando didn’t care at all. He just stared at the man in the lower right corner of the photo, and the

woman sitting across from him. They were so close, looking at each other with so much affection. They looked really intimate.
If it wasn’t Harland and Jovana, then who was it?
She kept saying she was going to a work dinner, but actually she just secretly went to meet up with Harland, right?
Still didn’t come home at night….
Was it about being with Harland?
Armando felt a dull pain in his chest, his eyes turned bloodshot with anger. He threw his phone aside and told the driver coldly,”Go to Jasmine Manor!”
Achoo!
Jovana sneezed, and her nose and the corners of her eyes were red.
She pulled her coat tighter, pushed the door open, and thought, I just want to take a hot shower and get some sleep.
But when she walked into the bedroom, she just froze.
There were actually men’s clothes on the bed…
Jovana froze for a second.
The next moment, the bedroom door was pushed open again. The man walked in wearing a robe, looking tall and proud. His hair was half dry, and a few drops of water slid into the slightly open collar of his pajamas, disappearing into his firm skin. He was full of masculine energy.
It was Harland.
Jovana turned around when she heard the sound and ran right into the man’s deep, dangerous eyes.
She suddenly caught her breath and looked away.
“Mr. Frasier…”
Jovana had a big headache. Even if she was dumb, she realized now that someone had set her up.
Harland frowned, his eyes fixed on her. Even without saying a word, he still made people uneasy.
Jovana thought he misunderstood her, so she hurried over to explain, “You got me wrong, the servant told me to come to this room, I had no idea, I was set up.”
As she spoke, she didn’t care about anything else and looked around for somewhere to hide.
There wasn’t any camera in the room, and since that servant had been bribed, they must be gone by now.
If someone came later, she couldn’t explain herself!
Her eyes looked around the room and finally stopped somewhere. She hurriedly grabbed Harland’s
sleeve.
“Mr. Frasier, you might have to hide for a bit later…”

Harland lowered his eyes, grabbed her wrist back, warm and strong,”Hiding was useless, it was already too
late.”
