Chapter 61: RANON’S SHARP GAZE
Hazel’s heart almost stopped beating when she saw Ranon was there. He was staring at her, and sure enough, he knew how she came into the room. His eyes were filled with judgment.
And the scariest part was: he didn’t even talk!
He simply stared at her, and somehow Hazel felt like she was a child being caught red-handed for being naughty, and she was stared at to confess for her crime, for her sin, that she had committed.
This was super annoying, but that was how Hazel felt about the situation right now.
"Hi!" Hazel raised her hand awkwardly to greet him because she didn’t know what else she had to do or say in this situation. She should have checked her bedroom first before she climbed in.
There was no explanation for this, and there was no excuse, since Ranon had seen everything, and he was too smart to be fooled by a lame story anyway.
And right now, Hazel couldn’t think of anything, or a way, that could help her to get out of this situation. She had landed herself in this awful situation because she was not being careful. Hazel’s life was too ’calm’ for her; that was why, gradually, she put her guard down.
"How long have you been here?" Hazel asked again, pretending as if there was nothing weird about it, as she crossed the room and put down her bag on the bed.
The handbag felt so heavy because the gun was inside. She needed to put it away from Ranon’s reach because there was a chance he was going to look into her handbag, and if that happened, Hazel didn’t know what else he was going to do and what question would come out of his mouth.
