Making 154
In the monitor room of Langford Hotel, the security manager, wearing a suit and tie, was working on
aputer and finally paused the surveince video on the screen.
He looked up at a young man in his twenties who seemed grim and unpredictable, and reported
respectfully, “Sir, ine entered Room No. 8, 50th Floor.”
This young man was no other than Tobias, the eldest son of the Weston family that owned Langford
Tower.
When ine ran away from Tobias’s room, he sent his bodyguards to hunt for her, but their efforts
failed.
So Tobias called the security manager over, and they went straight to the monitor room to get
rted surveince footage,
Soon, the security manager found ine on the monitor. She had entered Room No. 8, 50th Floor.
It was precisely Gilmore’s room.
A cold light glittered in Tobias’s eyes as he said, “Does she believe she can escape from me by
hiding in this room?”
“Sir, let me go there and get her for you now,” a bulky man with a buzz cut and square face
standing behind Tobias asked.
“No, we’re going together,” Tobias decided.
Afterward, Tobias spoke to the security manager, ‘Mr. Tinch, introduce yourself as ine’s boyfriend
when we get to the room. Beat that guy in the room and take ine away.”
The security manager immediately understood that Tobias wanted him to pretend to be ine’s
boyfriend, who came to catch her cheating-
He hated to be a part of this scheme, but all he could do was obey because of Tobias’s identity.
Minutester, Tobias, the security manager, and a group of security guards left the monitor room.
They walked into the elevator and headed toward Room No. 8, 50th Floor to catch ine with
another man.
At that exact moment, Gilmore and ine were sitting on the sofa, admiring the night sky through
the floor–to–ceiling window while waiting for the meteor shower to streak across the sky.
Suddenly, his eyes twitched and pupils shrank.
With the help of his God’s Eye, he saw Tobias hurrying to his room, followed by a group of people.
He also learned Tobias’s n and automatically smiled.
He thought, “What a brilliant n. But I’m afraid it will not be that easy to take me down.”
Footsteps quickly sounded in the corridor, followed by knocks on the door and a voice, ine, I
know you’re inside. Show your face now. I can pretend nothing has happened. Otherwise, smash
down the door and give that man what he
deserves!”
ine, sitting on the sofa, indeed heard the fuss outside.
Her face immediately turned pale, then she looked at Gilmore and whispered, frightened, “Gilmore, I
beg you,
don’t open

the door, please! It must be Tobias!”
Gilmore took her hand and said, “No need to panic. Come with me.”
She followed him nkly to a window, clueless about what he was nning to do.
Gilmore opened two windows.

ine was surprised and wondered, “Does he want us to escape through the window? But we’re
on the 50th floor. We will die
if we fall.”
She gazed at Gilmore, and asked with a worried look, “Gilmore, isn’t it too dangerous to escape
from here?”
But he smiled and ordered, “ine, close your eyes. I’ll do a magic trick for you. You must
remember not to open your eyes until I ask you to, or the consequences will be serious.”
Gilmore’s enigmatic look sparked ine’s curiosity, so she repeated what he said, “Close my eyes,
and you’ll do a magic trick?”
She wondered quietly, “Tobias is about to barge in. How can Gilmore think about doing a magic trick
in a moment like this?” However, Gilmore promised her earnestly, “As long as you close your eyes
and I do this trick, Tobias won’t be able to find us.”
ine had no idea what kind of trick Gilmore was talking about, but she trusted in his promise.
After all, Gilmore had saved her and provided 200,000 dors to pay for her father’s surgery.
She had grown the utmost faith and trust in him.
As a result, she nodded like an innocent little girl and said, ‘Okay, 111 close my eyes.”
After, she did it.
The minute she closed her eyes, she felt Gilmore’s hand on her waist.
Her eyshes began to flutter while her heart was beating like crazy.
She had no idea what Gilmore would do next.
Such strange behavior would inevitably cause suspicions about his intentions.
However, ine believed that Gilmore was not
an evil man.
Gilmore was the opposite of Tobias who groped her like a pervert as soon as they entered the
room.
He even tried to hide that he lent her 200,000 dors.
On the other hand, when she tried to borrow money from Tobias minutes earlier, his sole purpose
was to exploit the opportunity to sleep with her.
The difference between them could not be more evident.
Because of this, ine believed that Gilmore would never do anything terrible to her.
When Gilmore put his arm around her waist, she did not feel molested or ufortable. However,
her heart was beating
faster, and she got nervous..
Gilmore whispered close to her ear. “The magic is about to begin. Don’t open your eyes.”
She was able to feel his warm breath tickling her ear as he spoke.
It seemed to be an indescribable intimacy between them; the atmosphere suddenly turned weird.
Her fair cheeks blushed and seemed to be burning hot.
The second she blushed because of her natural shyness, he tightened his grip.
Immediately, she felt like floating off the ground and flying.
She could not help but wonder if Gilmore was doing a marvelous magic trick; otherwise, how would
she feel this way?
Yet, she shut her eyes, following Gilmore’s instructions.
It felt like she had flown out of the room, and the wind was refreshing her.
She had no idea how long it took but suddenly felt herselfnding on the ground.
Gilmore’s voice sounded in her ear, “We are good. You can open your eyes now,”
She opened her eyes slowly, only to find herself on a tall building’s top
This building was taller than the other skyscrapers nearby.
floor.

At one nce, the whole Oakhaven was full of gleaming towers while dazzling lights illuminated
wherever she looked.
She immediately realized she was on Langford Tower’s rooftop.
ine looked at Gilmore,pletely astonished, and asked, “Is this Langford Tower’s rooftop?”
Gilmore smiled and nodded.
ine was so shocked at his answer that she couldn’t say anything
She thought, “Gilmore did a magic trick, then I magically came from the 50th floor of Langford Tower
to the hundred- meters–high rooftop? What a marvellous trick!”
