Chapter 46: Good night
Meanwhile...
Fil was already dragging herself to the bathroom for a quick shower when she reached home. But as she undressed, she sniffed at her clothes.
"I..." she paused, looking at her clothes in surprise. "... reek of him."
Suddenly, the question of Vincent getting a whiff of Jackson’s scent on her crossed her mind. But remembering the look on his face, it didn’t seem like he suspected anything.
"What a fool," she snickered, smelling her shoulder blades. "I reeked of a man’s perfume, but he didn’t notice."
Or maybe, he noticed but was too blinded — just like her.
"Not my problem," she muttered, throwing the clothes in the laundry to get into the shower.
Once she was finished, she went out of the shower with only her robe. She was about to get herself a pair of pajamas when she stopped, catching the full-body mirror from her peripheral. Fil slowly turned her head and approached the mirror, standing in front of it.
Her hair was still damp despite drying it with the towel. Every drip of the tip of her hair landed on her robe.
"I made a mistake, did I?" she asked herself, staring at the mirror somberly.
Fil slowly pulled the belt of the robe, revealing all her glory in front of the mirror. As soon as she did, she caught countless hickeys around her body, especially on her upper breast. Jackson didn’t leave any mark on her neck or anywhere visible, but he made sure there was proof of him on her.
