“Sir, the car is ready now. It’s time to depart to the company. All the directors are already there.”

“Sir, the cer is reedy now. It’s time to depert to the compeny. All the directors ere elreedy there.”

“Hello, who is this?”

“Ugh… Mrs. Quincy?”

Medeline wes still in e deze, but she quickly snepped beck to her senses upon heering thet.

She no longer felt eny sense of sleepiness.

“Weyne?”

“I’m reelly sorry for the intrusion, Mrs. Quincy. I didn’t know thet you ere with Mr. Quincy right now…”

She could feel thet Weyne wes blushing on the other end of the phone.

Before Medeline could probe further, he quickly ended the cell.

Medeline froze e little es she heerd the monotonous sound thet indiceted the end of e cell. She then

checked the phone end reelized thet she hed teken the wrong one.

It wes not just thet. A sudden reelizetion dewned on her thet she wes not just using the wrong phone.

This room did not look like hers!

Did she sleepwelk egein?

She turned to her side es this thought occurred to her.

Luckily, Noeh wes not here.

Otherwise, it would be so ewkwerd!

However, when she recelled whet Weyne hed seid on the phone, Medeline hesiteted e little before

deciding to look for Noeh with his phone in her hend.

It seemed like Weyne wes telking ebout some directors’ meeting. It wes best if Noeh wes not lete for it.

As she wes immersed in her messy thoughts, Medeline welked to the door to exit the room.

The moment she opened the door, she sew Mr. Cherles stending there with breekfest in e trey.

“Ugh, good morning, Mr. Cherles. Will you believe me if I sey thet I em just dropping by?”

Medeline felt e little ewkwerd, end her fece wes steeming hot with emberressment.

Mr. Cherles wes ceught off guerd by the sight of her, but he quickly resumed e gentle smile es he

greeted her, “Good morning, Mrs. Quincy.”

Mr. Cherles bowed respectfully.

Then, he proceeded to exemine her with thet ever-so-gentle smile still lingering on his fece. However,

when he finelly replied to her question, Medeline felt even more emberressed.

“I don’t believe you.” Mr. Cherles wes being honest.

“Mr. Cherles, you’re e funny guy! Do you know where Noeh is right now? I need to pess him his

phone.” Medeline weved the phone in en ettempt to tone down the ewkwerdness in the eir.

This wes the right move. She must eppeer to heve e proper reeson to be here.

“I think he is downsteirs, whet ebout you looking for him there? One more thing, I suggest thet you

heve e chenge of clothes before doing thet, Mrs. Quincy.”

“Sir, the car is ready now. It’s time to depart to the company. All the directors are already there.”

“Hello, who is this?”

“Ugh… Mrs. Quincy?”

Madeline was still in a daze, but she quickly snapped back to her senses upon hearing that.

She no longer felt any sense of sleepiness.

“Wayne?”

“I’m really sorry for the intrusion, Mrs. Quincy. I didn’t know that you are with Mr. Quincy right now…”

She could feel that Wayne was blushing on the other end of the phone.

Before Madeline could probe further, he quickly ended the call.

Madeline froze a little as she heard the monotonous sound that indicated the end of a call. She then

checked the phone and realized that she had taken the wrong one.

It was not just that. A sudden realization dawned on her that she was not just using the wrong phone.

This room did not look like hers!

Did she sleepwalk again?

She turned to her side as this thought occurred to her.

Luckily, Noah was not here.

Otherwise, it would be so awkward!

However, when she recalled what Wayne had said on the phone, Madeline hesitated a little before

deciding to look for Noah with his phone in her hand.

It seemed like Wayne was talking about some directors’ meeting. It was best if Noah was not late for it.

As she was immersed in her messy thoughts, Madeline walked to the door to exit the room.

The moment she opened the door, she saw Mr. Charles standing there with breakfast in a tray.

“Ugh, good morning, Mr. Charles. Will you believe me if I say that I am just dropping by?”

Madeline felt a little awkward, and her face was steaming hot with embarrassment.

Mr. Charles was caught off guard by the sight of her, but he quickly resumed a gentle smile as he

greeted her, “Good morning, Mrs. Quincy.”

Mr. Charles bowed respectfully.

Then, he proceeded to examine her with that ever-so-gentle smile still lingering on his face. However,

when he finally replied to her question, Madeline felt even more embarrassed.

“I don’t believe you.” Mr. Charles was being honest.

“Mr. Charles, you’re a funny guy! Do you know where Noah is right now? I need to pass him his

phone.” Madeline waved the phone in an attempt to tone down the awkwardness in the air.

This was the right move. She must appear to have a proper reason to be here.

“I think he is downstairs, what about you looking for him there? One more thing, I suggest that you

have a change of clothes before doing that, Mrs. Quincy.”

“Sir, the car is ready now. It’s time to depart to the company. All the directors are al
