Free Web NovelChapter 2645: Chapter 118: Was I Discovered?
"Click—Clap—"
The clanging sound of metal clashing, and the ’clap’ sound of something being shut suddenly rang in Molly Wellington’s ears.
Originally sleeping peacefully and sweetly in bed, Molly Wellington sprang up as if something had scalded her.
She sat at the head of the bed, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, her hands tightly covering her chest.
In that instant, she suddenly remembered that she was not alone in this room.
Abraham Redington was still here. What was that sound just now?
A flood of chaotic thoughts came to mind, and Molly Wellington even felt a sense of unease as she first turned her head to look at the bathroom.
The sound that seemed like a door opening and closing made her afraid she’d open her eyes to see Abraham Redington stepping out of the bathroom, shirtless with just a bath towel wrapped around his waist.
Abraham Redington was not the type to show his emotions openly.
But inherent in him was the domineering persistence of the Lucas family men.
The things he was accustomed to, the people and objects he wanted, he always forcibly occupied.
Having grown up with him, Molly Wellington knew that this was the true nature of Abraham Redington, or rather, the Lucas family men.
However, when she turned back, the bathroom door was open, and there was no light inside, obviously no one was there either.
The sofa where Abraham Redington had originally been sitting was now empty, and looking around the room, apart from her, it was deserted.
So the sound she heard earlier that seemed like a door opening and closing was the sound of David Redington leaving.
Abraham Redington is gone?
He really did nothing and just left?
Molly Wellington couldn’t quite believe what she saw, but it seemed to be the truth.
She turned on her cell phone at the bedside; it was ten thirty in the morning, and she had slept until this time.
Recalling that she still had business to attend to today, Molly Wellington hurriedly got out of bed, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then changed clothes and put on makeup.
When she changed into a low-cut outfit and stood in front of the mirror to apply makeup, she lifted her chin and found that on her fair neck, there were three or four deep and shallow red love bites left by that person.
Abraham Redington...
Thinking of last night, how he pinned her on the bed and kissed her so assertively.
The anger Molly Wellington had just subsided rose again.
Indeed, she could not have any soft feelings towards Abraham Redington; dealing with this man was either advancing or retreating.
He was like the most cunning hunter, able to easily capture the weaknesses of his prey.
If she retreated, it was highly likely she would repeat the same mistakes and be captured by him, leaving nothing behind.
Molly Wellington’s beautiful almond-shaped eyes gradually turned cold. She expertly used concealer to cover the marks on her neck, then tied an elegantly appropriate scarf around her neck.
All preparations were complete, and it took less than twenty minutes from the moment she woke up to organizing her appearance.
Molly Wellington efficiently picked up her briefcase and cell phone, and just as she was about to open the door and go out.
Unexpectedly, as she pushed the door open, she saw Stella Brown at the door, tears streaming down her face, her eyes swollen, and her nose red.
Behind her was Maggie, who had been accompanying her.
Suddenly seeing Stella Brown, Molly Wellington’s calm and professional expression turned quite ugly.
"Secretary Wellington, I’m sorry... I’ve come to apologize. Secretary Wellington, please, for the sake of my soon-to-be permanent position at the Royal Palace, forgive me this once. I promise, I won’t speak out of turn again..."
Seeing Molly Wellington come out, Stella Brown cried even more pitifully.
And standing behind her, Maggie, seeing Molly Wellington’s expression turn so unpleasant, thought that she was still angry about last night.
Hurriedly pleaded on Stella Brown’s behalf: "Secretary Wellington, Stella regretted deeply after getting home last night for the mistake she made and cried all night without stopping."
"Early this morning, she came here to wait at your door, wanting to sincerely apologize to you."
"Look at this girl, her eyes are all swollen from crying. She’s also honest, standing outside your door for three to four hours, didn’t even care to have breakfast, she’s genuinely here to apologize."
"On the account of her sincere apology, please say a word to Mr. Taylor to consider it settled."
With these words from Maggie, Molly Wellington’s face turned even uglier.
Waiting at the door for three to four hours...
Molly Wellington couldn’t help but squint, and the unease in her heart gradually expanded.
Could it be that Abraham Redington’s departure just now was also seen by them?
