Chapter 727


    “Oh, I think it’s Room 5.” Emmanuel’s response was casual, oblivious to


    Beatrix’s imaginative spections.


    At the sound of his voice, Beatrix felt an affirming jolt-her assumptions were


    proving to be on point.


    When has Mackenzie ever delegated her phone to someone else?


    Given the timing, could she be in the middle of a shower?


    It’s quite unbelievable that a clean freak like Mackenzie would willingly


    choose toe to a ce like this with Emmanuel.


    But then again, the power of love is truly remarkable.


    “Alright, I’ll be right there in a moment!”


    With that, Beatrix swiftly hung up and darted into action.


    Unaware of Beatrix’s state of mind, Emmanuel ced the phone down and


    waited in the room,


    After hearing a knock on the door, he swiftly swung it open.


    He was greeted by the sight of Beatrix, who stood there panting heavily, her


    cheeks delicately flushed. Slightly hunched, she patted her chest to regain


    herposure.


    As soon as Beatrix caught her breath, she immediately asked, “Where’s my


    sister?”


    Before Emmanuel could reply, her attention was drawn to the bathroom


    where the light was on, and it seemed like someone was taking a bath inside.


    Oh, my goodness!


    The expression on Beatrix’s face was as if she had been struck by lightning.


    She prided herself on being a real-life detective as her intuition had led her


    to suspect the truth early on. Yet, when confronted with the evidence, it was


    hard to believe that she had been spot-on.


    “What’s wrong?”


    Emmanuel furrowed his brows, assuming Beatrix’s unusual behavior was due


    to her hastiness.


    She’s such an enthusiastic little firecracker!


    “I-It’s nothing! Emmanuel, here’s what you asked for. I won’t bother you any


    longer!”


    Beatrix seemed a bit flustered.


    Why would Emmanuel open the door just as he and Mackenzie are about to


    do that kind of thing?


    Is he not concerned that Mackenzie will be angry when shees out?


    “Hold on… Emmanuel, if there’s anything else you or my sister need, just let


    me know. I’ll run any errands you need, and I’ll make sure they’re done!”


    Beatrix punctuated her promise with a pat on her chest.


    As Emmanuel’s eyebrows furrowed even more, he couldn’t help but wonder


    what Beatrix had up her sleeve.


    “Most likely, it won’t be necessary. But if the need arises, I’ll definitely reach


    out. Thanks!”


    “You’re wee! We’re all pitching in for the Quillen family!” Beatrix


    responded with enthusiasm. She did not n to interrupt Emmanuel and


    Mackenzie in their private moment.


    To her surprise, as her gaze swept across, she was taken aback by the sight


    of that bloodstain on the bedsheet. Her entire being was once again struck


    as if by a bolt from the blue!


    “W-What is that?!” Beatrix stammered, her finger trembling as she pointed at


    the bloodstain.


    was hard for her to believe that Mackenzie and Emmanuel had already


    taken things to that level.


    It seemed that the shower wasn’t the pre-activity preparation, but rather the


    aftermath clean-up.


    Emmanuel turned around and noticed the bloodstain. Having just tended to


    the Snake Master’s wounds, he inadvertently got blood on his hands and


    identally transferred some of it onto the sheets while seating himself on


    the bed.


    He began to exin, “Oh, that’s blood, but it’s not mine…”


    However, Beatrix cut him off with vigorous nods and said, “I get it! No need to


    exin, Emmanuel. I’m leaving now! Bye!”


    With that, she sprinted away as fast as her legs could carry her.


    There was no doubt in her mind. It was clear to her that the blood wasn’t


    courtesy of her simple-minded brother-inw; it had to be her sister’s.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    Oh, my goodness!


    How on earth could Mackenzie, typically as cold as ice and even has


    germaphobia and androphobia, decide to give away her most precious thing


    in a ce like this?


    If Grandpa finds out, he’s definitely going to blow a fuse.


    “No, I’ve got to inform Grandpa right away!”


    After dashing out of the inn, Beatrix leaped into the car and immediately


    directed the driver, “Hurry! Let’s get back to the Quillen residence as fast as


    possible!”


    She decided to personally deliver the news to her grandfather since she


    thought that telling him over the phone might not be enough to convey her


    excitement.
