Chapter 781

"Oh, Miss Knowles never failed to surprise me."

As he said, he stepped forward and took her arm, leading her out of the presidential suite, "Let's go

hide on the rooftop for a while."

"Good." Joyce sniffed and it indeed smelt something was burning, but it was not like anything serious,

"I think the smell of smoke is not really strong. What happened again actually?"

She felt extremely unhappy. She had got so many accidents in such a luxurious hotel and she was so

wretched. She really had a lot to complain about.

"I don't know, but let's go now. Come on, let's take the fire escape."

Luther opened the door to the fire escape, "Our rooms are on the top floor, so they are closest to the

rooftop. Don't worry, it will be fine."

"I'm not worried, and I'm just annoyed." Joyce couldn't help but complain, "There's no end to it."novelbin

She ran out in her bathrobe. Although her body was all covered, she seemed more or less rude.

When they were halfway up the stairs and had not yet reached the rooftop…

The fire alarm suddenly stopped again.

"What's going on? Why isn't the fire alarm going off again?" Joyce stopped in her tracks, dissatisfaction

in her voice.

"I don't know." Luther shrugged his shoulders in helplessness.

He looked at her mud-covered face and snickered, "Luckily the hotel isn't on fire, or Miss Knowles'

pretty face will cause quite a shock when she gets to the rooftop in the middle of the night."

"Oh, it's a black clay mask. I didn't have the time to wash it off in a hurry just now." Joyce explained.

She then thought about it again, and she felt the need to add, "We just have to take care of our skin as

women and I hope you don’t mind."

"Is that so?" Luther's sharp eyes went straight into her eyes, "But I remember that last night, when I

gave you skincare products on behalf of R&S Group, you said you didn't use these products yourself

and it was a waste to give them to you?"

He used what she said yesterday to question her.

He just could not help but think that she didn’t use the black clay mask because she needed them but

because she wanted to hide her real face.

Sure enough something was wrong.

"Ahem." Joyce felt a little awkward, "There is no woman who does not love beauty. It's just that I don’t

think it’s appropriate to receive such an expensive gift from Mr. Warner so soon, so I just said that."

"I must thank Mr. Warner for the skin care products, and I love them." She cleared her throat, a little

awkward.

She always felt that she had done something wrong today and he had seen her through.

And his probing eyes made her feel like she had fallen into a trap.

It was as if she smelled the stink of a conspiracy.

She thought that everything that happened today was not quite normal. At the first fire alarm she got

soaked through and the second fire alarm sent her scurrying out of the bathroom.

Perhaps, from the time he wouldn't let her leave and insisted on driving her, she was in the middle of

the trap he had set up.

Could it be the truth?

"Really, I am happy that you like it."

Luther stared at her coldly and sharply, the corners of his lips curved in a sophisticated curve, and now

he suspected even more than ever that she was Joyce.

Although she was wearing a black clay mask and he could only see her eyes.

But her eyes now looked even more like Joyce than she was without the clay mask. When he could not

see her entire face, these were simply Joyce’s eyes! Sharp, cold, proud, determined, and witty.
