Because Nolan had slept on the bed last night, Eliza had no choice but to sleep on the desk. As a result, she woke up this morning with some back and waist soreness,
But she didn’t let Nolan know. Now, seeing the tiredness in her eye
“Huh?” Eliza turned around and met Nolan’s gaze.
won’t touch you. Just get some proper sleep, Nolan said.
Nolan set his book aside and said, “Come lie down.
Eliza wasn’t actually afraid Nolan would do anything to her. What she was more worried about was whether he’d mind.
TI… sleep on this side. Eliza set down her pen and lay down on Nolan’s left side. It was closer to the window, which she preferred. She took off her jacket and got into bed. The bed at Season Hotel was soft and cozy, and the blanket was warm and snug.
It had been a long time since Eliza had slept in such comfort. Within minutes, Nolan could hear her steady breathing.
She really fell asleep? Nolan’s gaze darkened. She was alone in a hotel room with a guy, and yet she fell asleep without the slightest caution. He didn’t know whether to call her too trusting or just lacking in self–protection.
Nolan quietly pulled the blanket up to cover her better. Suddenly, a set of hurried footsteps echoed from outside the door.
“Excuse me, this is the VIP floor. You can’t go in!”
“Move!” Zayden shoved the hotel staff aside, prompting the staff member to immediately call for security through the radio.
Zayden was already pounding heavily on the door. “Elizal
Before he could continue, Nolan had already opened the door. Nolan was wearing a white T–shirt, and his collarbone was slightly showing. His clothes and hair were in a mess
too.
Zayden’s face darkmed. He asked, “Where is Eliza.”
“You’re gonna
a wake her up.” Nolan’s tone turned cold. “Get out. This isn’t a place you can come
“Sorry, sir. We will make him leave now.” The attendant by the side quickly tried to make Zayden leave.
Zayden shook off the staff member’s hand and threw a punch at Nolan’s cheek. Nolan merely lifted his hand and caught Zayden’s fist midair, stopping him from landing another blow.
“What the hell are you doing. Zayden?!” The moment Eliza’s voice rang out, Nolan’s grip unexpectedly loosened.
Tha: brief hesitation gave Zayden the opening he needed. His fist slammed hard into the side of Nolan’s face.
“Nolan‘” Eliza immediately rushed forward to support Nolan. She looked up at Zayden’s darkened expression and scolded, “Zayden! What the hell are you doing?
“You’re defending him? Zayden’s face was cold. “He brought you to a hotel, Eliza! Do you even realize what you’re doing?”
“Zayden! Don’t twist things! It’s not what you think!”
“Not what I think? Then what the hell am I looking at right now? Eliza, I can’t believe you! You’ve really sunk this low!”
His fists clenched at his sides as he shook with anger.
I’ve sunk low?” Eliza let out a bitter laugh Yeah, maybe she had sunk low. Low enough to fall for someone like Zayden in h
previous life.
She even sacrificed to her lowest point to help Zayden. She didn’t care about anything and married him. Then, she got dumped.
Eliza got up. “Zayden, don’t act like on some higher ground. Didn’t you sleep in the same room as Naomi?”
That was because….”

“You don’t owe me an explanation, just like I don’t owe you one. Don’t forget that we have nothing to do with each other anymore. I don’t have to answer your questions.” With that, Eliza bent down to help Nolan up. Her expression was cold as she looked Zayden. “Please leave.”
She didn’t give Zayden a chance to react and shut the door firmly in his face. Zayden stood frozen outside while staring blankly at the closed door.
“Sir, I think it’s best if you leave now. This is our VIP floor. If you disturb our guests again, it’ll be hard for us to handle the situation,” the staff said awkwardly, trying to be polite but firm.
“Zayden!” The security guard had finally arrived at the scene. Naomi had been following Zayden the whole way. She already thought it was odd when he showed up at a hotel, but she never expected to find him outside Eliza’s room.
“Zayden, what are you doing here? Is my sister…
“She’s not!” Zayden cut her off sharply, his face clouded with frustration. Just drop it. Let’s go.”
Naomi was stunned by the expression on Zayden’s face. She had never seen him like this. Her gaze shifted toward the presidential suite door, and her brows furrowed in suspicion. Wait is Eliza really inside? But how could Eliza possibly afford to stay in such an expensive hotel suite?
