No kiss marks, no bruises, no evidence of her committing a crime.

Could it be… she just touched him a couple of times?

Of course, even touching was not okay. That would be indecent, even obscene!

“Josephine, is there anything you want to say to me?”

Oh no, Zachery was starting to ask her for an explanation.

Josephine froze, not knowing what to say.

Saying thank you would sound too perfunctory.

Saying she’d take responsibility was out of the question.

After thinking for a moment, she changed the subject: “My neck’s been twisted for too long, I think I have a crick in it.”

Then she turned her head, calmly sat up from the bed, and got off.

She was wearing a hotel bathrobe.

She didn’t know if Zachery had helped her change, or if it was the hotel staff.

She didn’t dare ask.

After thinking it over, she decided she couldn’t avoid it, so she looked at Zachery and asked:

“Um… is there anything you want? As long as it’s within my ability.”

Zachery got out of bed too, also wearing a hotel bathrobe.

He walked up to Josephine, stared into her eyes, and almost said, “I want you!”

But he managed to restrain himself in time.

Josephine’s heart had been wounded by Wilfred, left with bloody gashes.

If he forced his way in, not only would he fail to heal her, he would hurt her even more.

That wasn’t what he wanted.

Zachery ruffled Josephine’s messy hair and said in a gentle, elegant voice, “Let me think

about it.”

“Okay,” Josephine agreed, feeling a sense of relief.

The two of them stood facing each other for a while.

Josephine said, “I’m going to freshen up.”

When she entered the bathroom, she saw the tub filled with clear water.

She guessed that last night, Zachery had her take a cold bath to help her recover.

He really was a gentleman.

She wondered if Wilfred, in a similar situation, had also met a virtuous woman like she had met a virtuous man?!

Josephine’s eyes flickered as she walked back over to Zachery.

“Can I borrow your phone for a moment?”

Zachery didn’t know what Josephine wanted to do, but with him, Josephine could do whatever she wanted.

He didn’t ask anything and handed his phone to Josephine.

Josephine asked for the unlock code.

Zachery said, “1107.”

It was that set of numbers again–he really was obsessed with them.

Josephine didn’t think much of it and dialed the landline at Rose Manor.

It was only five in the morning. Zoey had just gotten up, and her voice was still heavy with sleep.

“Hello, who would you like to speak to?”

“Zoey, it’s me, Josephine. I have a question that’s very important to me. I hope you can help.”

Zoey had been recruited to Rose Manor by Josephine, and the benefits she received were

hard to find even in Vexford.

She was absolutely loyal to Josephine.

“Madam… oh, no, Josic, go ahead.”

“Did Wilfred come home last night?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. Did he sleep with Helena last night?”

“Well…” Zoey hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth:

“Ms. Pollard went into Mr. Hayden’s room last night and hasn’t come out since.”

Josephine couldn’t quite describe how she felt–there was a sting, but also a sense of relief!

Her voice dropped a little: “Zoey, please do me a favor. Don’t let Belinda go wake them up yet. Call Yvonne and say this…”

After giving Zoey her instructions, Josephine hung up.
