The woman walked straight into the bathroom, locked the door after closing it, and stayed inside for half an hour without coming out.
Walter sat on the sofa waiting, holding a glass of red wine, sipping slowly until Emma Benson emerged from the bathroom.
"You..."
"Knock, knock, knock"—
Emma Benson had just opened her mouth when she heard a knock at the door. She turned her head and walked over to open it.
"Good morning." Ose Owen and Crossley Gibson stood outside. Crossley greeted her, her expression slightly tense, with a faint smile that seemed off.
"Morning..." Emma Benson also greeted them, then frowned and asked, "What's wrong? You two look a bit off..."
Crossley loosened her tense expression: "Just heard from the servants that Four started running a fever at four in the morning. Master Liam and Tara Summer rushed back early this morning. We came to call you, so we can go together."
