jeremy looked at Melody. “You have ten minutes.” He didn’t want to stay in a place like this any longer than necessary.
Melody had always listened to him. So, she went back into the guesthouse, packed her things, and came out without asking where he was taking her At the worst, she could always come back later on. It wasn’t like jeremy driving her home happened often–maybe once or twice a year at most.
As Melody sat in threat. she thought about what Felicia had told her–after finishing herwerkenil part–time job, she should start looking for a rental.
Melody was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn’t even notice that Jeremy had driven back to the apartment. It wasn’t until they pulled into the underground parking lot that she realized it.
She looked at him inconfusion. “Why are we here?”
-Jeremy’s face remained expressionless as he answered inatlat tone, “Where else would we go
It was past a simple question.
Melody hesitated betere speaking, “Didn’t you tell me to move nut?
Jeremy frowned slightly,” just thought having you in my home for those few days made me physically uncomfortable –
Melody’s palms clenched, and she heard herself ask, “And now?”
“The maid has already disinfected the place three times.” Jeremy threw out that sentence and got out of the car

“Are you don’t have to pay rent, utilities, or anything. Money saved is still money, right? past take it as a win.”
Melody thought about her income and savings. In a first–tier city like Jembina, it really wasn’t much.
She hummed in agreement, acknowledging that Felicia had a point. She couldn’t afford to waste money now. After talking to Felicia, Melody left her room. She had a night shift later, with about seven or eight hours to spare.
Jeremy wasn’t home. He wasn’t scheduled to work today either, but she had no idea where he had gone.
Melody was hungry. She hadn’t eaten much at the Wardoll residence earlier, and after packing her thines

After eating, she decided to take a shower and get some rest before her shift. But for some reason, the hot water in her bathroom wouldn’t work she tried several times, but it wouldn’t turn on.
As a result, her skandelt sticky and uncomfortabile.
Jeremy’s apartment was a large, open–Layout space, and because of his obsession with cleanliness, every room had its own bathroom. Melodyheatred for a moment but eventually grabbed her clothes and went to use the stated one in the living room

The bathroom went dark in an instant, with the only light coming from a small window near the ceiling
At the same time, the door swing open.
Melody abruptly tuned around and found jearmy standing in the doorway
