Just as he was about to lose his temper, Liliana stepped in with a soft voice. "No need to be scared, Miss. We're here to rescue Mr. Finnian Everly." "Rescue?" Liliana nodded firmly.

"You might recognize me, right? I'm set to be his future wife. Today, he was lured here by a woman. If we can't find him in time, things could get really serious, and your hotel might be held responsible. Please, quickly, give us his room number." Liliana's voice was low but commanding, enough to make the receptionist nervous. The latter took a careful look at Liliana. She did seem like that famous actress, and Hogan was indeed from the Everly family.

Oh, what the heck! She lifted her head and said, "They're in room 808. Here's a spare key card." Liliana snatched the key card and hurried off, with Hogan quickly following her.

They took the elevator up to the eighth floor, and as soon as they stepped out, they were hit by a wave of strong perfume.

Liliana turned to see a glamorous woman in a silver bodycon dress brushing past them. The woman didn't look happy, muttering under her breath, "What's the point? If you didn't want to, why go through all this trouble? Ridiculous." Mumbling to herself, the woman got into the elevator, pressed the close button, and disappeared from their sight.

Hogan was puzzled. "Why is she leaving?" "Who?" Liliana paused. "You know her?" "Yeah, that's the woman Finnian took with him earlier." Hogan nodded, and then suddenly recalled what the woman had muttered. His face lit up with relief.

"Liliana, did you hear what she just said? Looks like Finnian didn't do anything with her. Maybe he cto his senses. See, I told you, Finnian isn't like that." Liliana forced a smile and quickly headed towards room 808. It seemed Finnian hadn't done anything with the woman, which was a relief, but she wasn't as optimistic as she looked.

This time, Finnian hadn't done anything, but what about next time? Why did Finnian take the woman out today, and why did he send her away later? All these questions remained unanswered, and only Finnian himself could shed slight on her.

Liliana knocked on the door. It opened to reveal Finnian, still in his suit he had been clad in that evening, hair slightly tousled, and his expression dark. He looked at them both and asked, "What are you two doing here?" He turned to Hogan. "Did you bring her here?" Hogan lowered his head, fumbling nervously for words.

At the sight of Finnian's attitude, Liliana's heart sank. She nodded at Hogan, who understood and turned to leave. Liliana stepped into the room and asked, "Finn, did you touch that woman?"

"No," Finnian said as he moved to the window, hands in his pockets, gazing out at the night view, his expression calm and steady.

Liliana bit her lip, tears streaming down her face. She lifted her hand and wiped them away, moving to stand beside Finnian. She inquired, "Finn, do you want to be someone else?" Finnian turned to her, noticing her red eyes, and asked, "Liliana, have you forgotten what I told you?" At first, Liliana was confused. Finnian had said many things to her. Which one was he referring to? But considering the situation, a thought suddenly struck her. She widened her eyes in shock-could it be that? mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
