uerite's best friend and the had a knack for getting to the heart of the matter with just a few words.

et feelings were tangled, she didn't deny it. She took a deep breath, tumed to Miley and said, "I need a moment alone"

We glanced at Marguerite, a swarm of emotions worry, concem-

flooding over her. But in the end, she kept her peace. She had laid bare Marguerite's deepest lelings, whether or not Marguerite chose to face them wasn't something she could dictate

if you head anything just holler. It be in the living room; Miley said, leaving the bathroom She found a fresh set of clothes in the bedroom and left them on the Eack outside the bathroom, giving Marguerite plen Hall of the damp rose petals in the bathtub floated on the water's surface, the other half clung to Marguerite's scar-dappled skin

She held her breath slowly dipping further into the warm water until just her head remained above the surface

The buzzing and of water filled her ears, and memones of Frederick began to fade.

She was still hurting but she was a bit better

Outside the bathroom Miley was anxiously waiting Suddenly, a message popped up from a user named Mr. Fitzgerald, "Smiley, are you still investigating that cufflink?"

Miley glanced womedly at the closed bathroom door before typing, "No, I stopped. We've found what we were looking for"

Robert sent back three question marks, followed by. "You found it, what did you replace?"

Was the cufflink Fredenck's? Had Smiley and her friend targeted Frederick?

Seeing no response, Robert asked again, "Do you know who the cufflink belongs to?"

By then Miley had retumed to the bathroom door, she sent a straightforward "Yes" to Robert, then knocked on the bathroom door "Marguente, are you still in there? The water must be getting cold, don't forget t Marquente's soft voice echoed from within, "Okay"

Miley, phone in hand, returned to the living room. She found a string of questions from Mr. Fitzgerald, all centered around the owner of the cufflink, clearly cunous She couldn't reveal Frederick's name, respecti well what to reveal and what to keep under wraps

She thought for a moment and chose a neutral answer, "Who it is doesn't matter now that we've found the truth."

Robert was left wondering Smiley seemed so straightforward, yet she was so cautious Getting information from her wasn't going to be easy He tried another approach, "Did your friend meet this person?"

"Yes"

She met him? Frederick had met Smiley's friend?

This was shocking Was Frederick entangled with another woman besides Yuna and Marguerite?

Who was Smiley's friend? Robert's curiosity was piqued

Just as he was about to probe further, Miley sent another message, 'Mr. Fitzgerald, I need a favor Can you help me get a job at the Regal Haven Hotel? work at the front deck" Miley looked towards Marguerite Marguerite loved Mr. Winston deeply, but she was constantly wracked with guilt over the child she s carrying. The sight off struggling was heartbreaking. The instigator of all this was the beast who had forced himself on Marguentel

Miley was determined to replace him and use all her resources to ensure he paid for his actions.

But Miley didn't expect that after sending the message to Mr Fitzgerald, he would immediately call her

She moved to the balcony with her phone, pressed the answer button, and heard a magnetic, warm voice say, "Smiley, are you short on money?

Miley was confused "No, I'm not

"Then why do you want to work at the Regal Haven Hotel?"

My thought for moment, Tm a private investigator I just want to investigate something at the front desk"
