"Who is it?" Naomi asked, turning toward the door.

Instead of responding, the knocking became even more intense than before.

Naomi furrowed her brows. She wondered who would be here so late at night.

She had run a background check on the hotel before checking in. There had been no security incidents at

the hotel or any incidents in the surrounding area.

Naomi picked up her taser and asked, "Is it the owner?"

Upon hearing Naomi's question, the man outside replied hoarsely, "Naomi, open the door."

Naomi's jaw fell. That voice sounded familiar. She had heard it somewhere before.

Naomi held the taser in one hand and wrapped the other around the doorknob. But she didn't unlock the safety chain.

As the intense knocking sound started again, Naomi opened the door. The next moment, Naomi froze when she saw the tall figure outside.

She stared at the man outside the door and finally asked through the crack in the door, "Why are you here?

"You seem cozy here. What are you holding?" Brendan asked hoarsely.

Naomi straightened up and walked over. "It's to defend against you."

As she spoke, she placed the taser aside and bent down to pick up Brendan's coat, hanging it on the coat. rack. "What's wrong with your throat?"

Brendan rolled up his sleeves. "It's inflamed."

He smoked more cigarettes than he could count on his way here and didn't realize how hoarse he

sounded until he was answering Naomi.

"Did you drive here?" Naomi asked.
