Chapter 397
Felicity stared at Vermont. In the end, she let go of him after confirming repeatedly.
"Vermont?" Doctor Steven raised his voice. "Are you awake?’
"I'm awake." Vermont cleared his throat and said loudly, 'What's wrong?"
Doctor Steven said, "You left your phone in the bar last night. They delivered it here. Open the door
and get it."
Felicity stared at him threateningly. "Ask Doctor Steven to put the phone by the door!"
Vermont put on his coat and glanced at her. "Do you think he won't suspect a thing if I ask him to put it
by the door?"
Of course, Felicity realized that her solution would show the signs of a guilty person giving himself
away by consciously protesting his innocence. There were clearly some problems if a person was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtafraid to open the door to get his phone.
Suddenly, Felicity had no idea what to do next. The door was facing the bed, and everything could be
seen at a glance in this kind of standard room. If she hid in the bathroom and Vermont, the bastard
talked nonsense in front of Doctor Steven, she would not be able to stop it in time.
Vermont gave a suggestion when he saw that she was convinced. "How about this? You hide behind
the door when I open the door later. That way, he can't see you, and you can hear what I say to him.’
"What if you're lying?’
Vermont glanced at her, "I want to save face too, okay? Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me to have
thoughts of aggression with your beauty?"
The corner of Felicity's mouth twitched, and she kicked his calf. Vermont took precautions and avoided
her kick easily.
"Vermont?" Doctor Steven shouted outside again.
Vermont said, "Just a minute. I’m getting dressed.’ After speaking, he looked at Felicity and said, "Go."
Felicity followed him to the door suspiciously, and Vermont opened the door.
Steven was outside answering the message with his head lowered. He was stunned when he saw the
red marks on Vermont's chest. Then, he laughed, "Did you have a good time last night?"
"Just so-so." Vermont took the phone and said, "I was scratched by a cat all night."
The corner of Felicity's mouth twitched. 'Then, why don't you get scratched to death!'
"Which cat?" Steven chuckled softly, "Is it this wild?"
Vermont raised his eyes and said, "A Black Cat Detective."
Felicity was left speechless.
Steven put his hand to his lips and smiled for a long time. "Did the cat run away?’
"The cat?" Vermont glanced at Felicity, who was at the door. He raised the corners of his lips when he
saw her frightened look. "The cat is hiding."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSteven then said, "I feel like I really want to meet her after listening to what you said."
"Meet her..." Vermont felt his sleeves being pulled as soon as he opened his mouth. When he turned
his head, he saw Felicity grabbing his sleeves and looking at him with reddened eyes. It seemed as
though she was about to cry in the next second.
Vermont looked at those eyes. Suddenly, he recalled a woman who hugged him and would not let go
as soon as he came to talk with Steven last night. Was she not the woman in front of him?
After thinking for a while, he realized that Felicity did not want Steven to know about her relationship
with him. With Vermont's bad habits in the past, he would normally do whatever he wanted, even when
it was not allowed. But today, for some reason, he could not rebel all of a sudden when she saw Felicity
with her reddened eyes and clutching his sleeve gently.
Vermont paused. Then, he pursed his lips and said, "Let's forget it. The cat is timid. What if it gets
stressed?"
