Chapter 5 She must Guard against a Fire, a Thief and Her Stepmother
Aiden looked down at the woman in his arms.
Her face was dyed pink, like a lotus in the pond. Aiden couldn’t help but stretch out his finger and
flicked her face softly. The touch of the fingertip was very smooth and delicate, "Don’t move."
Why? Every time Isabel moved, he would always unconsciously think of the woman last night.
"Ding-", the elevator stopped. Aiden moved his long legs and immediately entered the room that Elliot
had reserved for him.
Elliot, Isaac and Samuel all had regular rooms in Grand Hyatt Club. But Aiden didn’t have one,
because he always had been away from women. And, Isabel was his first woman.
Aiden entered the room and went straight into the bathroom with Isabel in his arms. He turned on the
faucet of the bathtub, adjusted the temperature of water to the lowest, and then separated the two
small hands that wrapped around him like an octopus.
With a sound, the water splashed and Isabel fell into the cold water.
But she still felt hot and kept waving her hands, making her shirt wet.
Aiden took the shower head, and let cold water pour directly on Isabel’s head. In this way, she stopped
moving. She was in the cold water and murmured, "Adam, don’t go, don’t leave me..."
When she struggled, some traces of last night were revealed.
Aiden looked terrible, and turned to leave coldly.
Isabel was awakened by the cold.
After soaking in cold water for more than four hours, she finally woke up.
She looked around in a daze and found that it was a completely strange bathroom.
She stood up in a panic. She finally sobered up. But she only recalled the last scene that Robert
wanted to take her away from Q.H. Bar. As for what happened after that, she couldn’t remember
clearly.
She rubbed her aching forehead and walked out of the bathroom wearing a bath towel. She found a
new set of women’s clothes with labels on the head of the bed. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Anyway, she couldn’t go out naked. She needed to figure out who saved her and sent her here, and
then thank that person.
She quickly put on clothes. Then she had time to look at the room. The decoration was quite exquisite,
which was even more upscale than her house.
When she saw the service card on the bedside table, she knew it was Grand Hyatt Club.
Grand Hyatt Club was close to Q.H. Bar. But, she had only passed by before and never came in.
Only the super-rich or political elites could enter the Grand Hyatt Club. Even her father, Henry, was not
qualified to enter such a noble place.
Unexpectedly, she indeed came in.
She didn’t know the gender of that person who saved her and sent her here.
But obviously, that person didn’t take advantage of her perilous state. This could be confirmed by the
fact that she was awakened by the cold.
So even if that person was a man, he was also a gentleman.
If that person was Adam, it would be better.
Thinking of this, Isabel felt that the person who saved her last night seemed to be Adam. But when she
recalled it carefully, she couldn’t remember any details.
Just then, the doorbell rang, accompanied by the voice of her friend, Celia.
Isabel hurried to tidy up her clothes. As soon as she opened the door, Celia rushed in.
Last night, she just went to get some ice water for Isabel. But when she came back, Isabel had
disappeared.
She spent most of the night looking for Isabel. Then she got a call from Grand Hyatt Club’s front-desk
clerk and then came here to find Isabel.
"Isabel, what happened? How did you get here?" Celia rushed to Isabel with concern. When she saw
that Isabel was fully dressed, Celia was relieved at last.
Isabel gave a brief account of what happened. She suspected that it was Miah who had drugged her,
and she also told Celia that she had met Robert at the bar. After that, she couldn’t help asking, "Celia,
did the receptionist tell you who brought me in? Was it Adam?"
As soon as she mentioned Adam’s name, Celia flicked her forehead hard, "Isabel, you are
daydreaming. Adam is not in T City. He has gone to B City for Starry Night."
"Oh." Isabel suddenly felt sad.
Seeing her like this, Celia had no choice but to interrupt on purpose, "Isabel, where are you going? Go
home or... "
"I don’t want to go home!" Isabel would have a headache at the thought of Miah and Robert.
This time they failed to succeed in their plot. Next time, they would trap her again. It seemed that she
must guard against a fire, a thief and her stepmother.
Isabel held Celia’s hand and said pitifully, "Celia, please take me in."
