Billionaire's Reborn Baby
Chapter 1028 Dislike (2)

Stephanie did not like Harold during the day. She liked him at night.

She liked to touch the scars on his body. Even though Harold was unwilling to let her see the scars till now, Stephanie had kissed every part of it, and Harold's body was set on fire under her lips.

On New Year's Eve, Stephanie did not make it back and slept in the hotel for the whole day. When she planned to rush home the next day, Relax Room got in trouble. Stephanie dragged her aching body to deal with it.

Emily had arrived early in the morning.

She had dealt with similar situations before. She was more experienced.

However, it was trickier this time.

The other party was harder to deal with.

"There is a newly opened Relax Room in the east of the city. Are they picking on us?" Stephanie sat in the office and asked with a frown.

"Why would they do that?" Emily did not understand.

"Because they charge a fee. Our service is free." Stephanie picked up the folder on the table and took a look. The customer complained about getting sick after coming and playing with cats in their Relax Room. He also reported a friend who came together had diarrhea because of their unhygienic drink.

Other customers, most of whom suffered from depression, were all scared of the farce and left.

"Aren't you going home today?" Emily took the folder in her hand and said, "I'll deal with it."

"How are you going to deal with this?" Stephanie asked.

"Don't worry. Rex went to the hospital when we were watching the surveillance. I'm waiting for him now," Emily said.

"Okay, I'll go to the bathroom first." Stephanie nodded.

"Alright."

Emily sat in her office and read the information. Then, she picked up her phone and sent a voice message to Vincent, "I'll probably be late at noon..."

Emily seemed to hear something outside and put down the phone before she finished speaking.

Someone was running back and forth outside the glass door.

She opened the door and saw smoke rising from the long corridor of the rest area.

"Fire!"

"Run!"

Emily quickly opened the door one by one and shouted, "Is there anyone inside?"

When she passed by the cat room, she paused for a second and then opened another door. She was choked by the smoke. Emily almost fainted when she was pulled by a strong hand.

Emily thought it was Vincent, but when she looked up, she saw Harold.

"Harold?"

The whole corridor was on fire, and the thick smoke blocked their sight.

Emily covered her mouth and nose and Harold carried her by the waist and quickly ran out.

Emily suddenly remembered that Stephanie had not yet returned from the bathroom. "Harold, Stephanie is still inside -"

Harold did not stop. He carried Emily out and placed her on the ground. Then, he turned around and rushed in. Emily saw the flame suddenly rise two to three meters high. A few seconds later, Harold was swallowed by the fire.

This scene was very similar to the car accident a few years ago. Emily yelled, "Harold."

Emily felt a strange sense of familiarity, like a dream.

It was a pity that she woke up before she finished that dream. She had no idea what the ending was.

She was worried about Stephanie.

The police car and fire truck were all here. Emily was about to step into the room when she was pulled into someone's arms. When Emily smelled the familiar scent, tears instantly flowed down. "Vincent, Harold has been in there for so long and has not come out yet. Stephanie is also inside..."

"They'll be fine." Vincent carried Emily and walked to the back door.

Everyone had participated in the initial design draft. Vincent made some final adjustments to the fire exit and the back door.

When they arrived there, Emily saw that Stephanie was holding a kitten with a dirty face, and beside her stood Harold, whose hair was burned by the fire.

Kittens meowed under their feet.

Emily did not save the cats, but Stephanie did.

"Fortunately, both of you are fine." Emily heaved a long sigh of relief.

Stephanie laughed at her. "Did you cry?"

"I was so scared and thought Harold did not come out." Emily said as she slapped Harold gently, "Why didn't you tell me that you found Stephanie?"

"I found her," Harold said woodenly.

Emily and Stephanie looked at each other and laughed.

On the first day of the new year, Stephanie was still unable to return home. She went to the police station and found the arsonists in the surveillance video were also the complaining customers. Stephanie sent the cats to the pet shop and gave the employees their salaries. She said that she would inform them to come back when it is settled. Stephanie then printed a notice and posted it on the door of Relax Room. She originally wanted to call the customers one by one, but she suddenly remembered that today is New Year's Day and changed her mind.

When everything was done, it was already very late. Stephanie came out wearing a blanket. It was dark outside and the air was chilly.

She took a deep breath.

"Are you cold?" Harold looked back. A few police officers had just come out of the station. He retracted his hand that was about to hold hers. "Let's go." Stephanie nodded.

Harold drove her back to Hump Village. Spencer had been waiting at the entrance of the village and he was almost frozen.

Stephanie said that she had no appetite and did not have dinner. After taking a shower, she entered her room.

They had agreed to come back and tell Spencer about their relationship. However, seeing that Stephanie had entered the room early, Harold thought that she was frightened. After taking a shower, Harold knocked on Stephanie's door and wanted to accompany her.

But the door was locked from inside.

Harold pushed the door only to replace that it was locked.

"Wendy?"

He called out with some concern.

In the room, Stephanie covered herself with a quilt and clenched her fists to prevent herself from crying.

Stephanie had just entered the bathroom when Relax Room was on fire. She hurried out of the bathroom and saw Harold rush in. It was the first time Stephanie saw such panic in Harold's eyes. Harold shouted, "Emily!"

Stephanie told herself that it is not the time to be jealous. She went to the cat room to replace all the cats and put them in bags. There was smoke coming in. Stephanie wiped her tears and dragged the bag to the back door. Harold had not called "Wendy" even once.

Stephanie knew that the most important person in Harold's heart had always been Emily.

She had been cheating herself.

She suddenly remembered that Harold had never said "I love you".

He only said, "Let me love you."

She misunderstood.

Stephanie's hand was bitten to bleed. A strong smell of blood spread in her mouth.

Stephanie thought she was abandoned again.

By a man who did not love her.
