Chapter 83 Bathroom Encounter

Chapter 83 Bathroom Encounter

Lilian bit her lip and turned to leave.

She went to the restroom and saw Johnson washing his hands inside.

When Johnson saw her, he grabbed two disposable towels to dry his hands. "Come in. I'm done."

Lilian nodded with a smile and walked in.

"The floor is a bit slippery, be... " Before he could finish saying his words, Lilian slipped and fell backward.

In a panic, she tried to grab onto something, and in the chaos, she grabbed onto Johnson's arm.

Johnson quickly reacted and caught her. His hand wrapped around her waist, and in an extremely ambiguous position, Lilian fell into his arms.

Lilian held onto his arm tightly and looked up at him.

Johnson was slightly startled, feeling that his hand on her waist suddenly became scorching hot.

What Ruby said was correct. Lilian had a pair of mesmerizing eyes. In her pure and clear gaze, it seemed like there was an endless depth of affection.

It was not seductive, yet it made people want to muddy that clear water.

Just like how most people couldn't help but want to cuddle and have violent impulses when they saw cute animal cubs, a crack appeared in Johnson's usual expression.

Just then, two maids passed by and exclaimed at the sight of their ambiguous postures.

After realizing what they had witnessed, they hurriedly ran away.

Johnson immediately let go of Lilian and had a slightly unnatural expression. "Are you okay?"

Lilian also took a step back, pulling away from him and shaking her head. "I'm fine, thank you."

Johnson nodded slightly, turned around, and walked out of the restroom.

Upon hearing the door closing, Johnson halted and looked back at the closed door.

The smile on his face faded.

He couldn't believe that the dummy was not afraid of him anymore.

Interesting!

In the villa, the gossip quickly spread like wildfire. The incident in the restroom where Lilian and Johnson held each other became known privately.

"I knew it. Mr. Smith has a strange look in his eyes when he looks at the mute. There must be something going on between them."

"That's right. He doesn't look at Ms. Ruby Landau in that way. His gaze is full of affection."

"Indeed. But Ms. Lilian cannot speak, so even if there is something, she can't express it."

"Poor girl! I saw the Third Young Master getting physical with her before."

The discussion among the people heated up, and they were unaware that Ruby was standing behind them.

One of them finally noticed and stood up in alarm, stuttering, "Ms. Ruby Landau."

Ruby looked at them coldly. "What are you talking about?"

"N-Nothing."

"Nothing? Continue speaking then. I haven't heard enough yet." Leaning against the door frame, Ruby folded her arms across her chest and smirked at them.

The maids' faces turned pale and they looked at each other, afraid to speak. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Ruby said, "Tell me everything you saw and heard in full detail."

"We were just guessing..."

Before the maid could finish her words, Ruby's attitude suddenly changed. "Guessing? You dare guess about such matters. Don't you want your jobs anymore?"

She sneered and scanned the group of people before continuing, "Speak. Tell me everything you saw and heard in full detail."

One of the maids swallowed nervously, tremblingly recounting everything they had witnessed.
