Before anyone could arrive with the room card, the room’s door was impatiently thrown open.
Jerry, draped in a bathrobe, had not bothered to cinch the belt properly, and his chest was exposed as he strode out.
He emanated impatience from every pore. His face was etched with the frustration of having his illicit tryst abruptly interrupted.
Presumably, he had mistaken the commotion for room service, only to be greeted by a throng of reporters. There were visible marks on his exposed skin, and a few nail imprints adorned his chest.
Audrey’s eyes widened slightly. The bathrobe left little to the imagination, and the bulge on his lower body were glaringly evident.
Upon seeing Jerry in such a state, Evans’s expression subtly shifted. He instinctively positioned himself in front of Audrey, obstructing her line of sight.
The growing discontent within Evans’s heart reached its zenith, prompting him to subconsciously position himself in front of Audrey, obstructing her view.
Audrey found herself hidden behind his broad back, her expression taking on a perplexed air.
Why was he blocking her?
Upon noticing the cameras and microphones thrust in his face, Jerry finally comprehended the situation. Swiftly, he reached out and cinched his bathrobe tightly, his expression shifting from impatience to sheer panic.
“Hello, sir. It’s been alleged that you seduced a woman. Is this true? Is the female involved still in the room?” A fearless female reporter directly posed her questions, unrelenting in her pursuit of the truth.
“Bullsh*t, I’m the victim here! Damn it, it seems you were planning to set me up all along!” Jerry’s face contorted with rage, the fiery anger in his eyes almost eclipsing his reason.
His thoughts reverted to the girl inside the room, leaving him suspicious that he had been scammed.
However, Audrey was no longer a subject of his suspicion. Instead, he believed Linda had masterminded the plot.
Upon eagerly entering Room 1802, he had noticed the ajar door. Stepping inside, he had expected to find Audrey on the bed, but it was Linda who lay there.
Furthermore, looking at Linda’s condition, it was obvious what had happened. He had directed her to fetch water for Audrey, only for Linda to consume it herself.
Jerry had been infuriated at the time, his initial excitement giving way to frustration.
Jerry had contemplated making a swift exit, but Linda clung to him relentlessly.
Linda was not unattractive either. Given that her mother had managed to seduce the head of the Rovers family with her looks, Linda was naturally endowed with good looks.
Individuals like Jerry were innately hedonistic.
There was no reason for him to reject it, considering it had come to him for free.
Furthermore, Linda hadn’t completed the mission, so using her as compensation seemed reasonable.
Unexpectedly, he would fail miserably today.”
Tina noticed the marks on Jerry’s body and made an educated guess about what had transpired inside. She was a smart woman, evident from the fact that Linda hadn’t received any benefits from the Rofus Family.
She exchanged glances with her mother and then signaled one of the male reporters with a look.
The male reporter understood and moved the microphone closer to Jerry’s mouth. He asked anxiously, ‘We want to know the victim’s condition inside. We’ve already called the police on our way here just now. I believe the police will arrive soon. Please allow the victim to come out. Otherwise, we may have to force our way in.”
As soon as he said this, many reporters reacted, and Jerry, who stood at the door, couldnt avoid addressing the situation. The person inside needed to show up.
The reporters were noisy, as if they were ready to barge in if Jerry didn’t step aside.
The hotel manager hadn’t anticipated such a situation. He quickly called for more security guards to come and try to control the situation.
Jerry blocked the door and refused to let them in. The group of security guards also prevented the reporters from forcing their way in. When the situation reached a stalemate, three uniformed men walked out of the elevator.
She tried to shrink back, reducing her presence. Seeing that Evans remained calm, she hastily reached out to pull him.
However, Evans was too tall, so she could not drag him away.
Evans felt his arm being grabbed and turned to look at her.
Audrey lowered her voice and said, “Let’s step back and hide for a while.”
[Watching a show requires one thing, Big Brother—ensuring your own safety. Don’t you understand that it’s not worth risking your life just to watch a show?]
Evans: “.
So, was it really necessary to watch the show?
