Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1648 Misunderstandings (Part One)

At Kate Hotel

Just as Annie entered the bathroom and shut the door, her room door was opened from the outside

and a few people sneaked in. They put someone on the bed and covered him with her quilt before

leaving the room. The whole stealthy process lasted no more than a minute.

Outside the room, by the door, Luke flashed a cunning smile, holding a camera in his hand. Not too

long ago, he had convinced a bellman to put the camera in the room with the excuse of giving Annie a

bottle of wine as a present from the hotel. That way he could know when she would enter the bathroom

and take this opportunity to send Rain in. After they put Rain in the room, he took the camera out with

him. The plan seemed perfect. The first half was executed perfectly. Now all they needed to do was to

wait for the rest to unfold.

Meanwhile, Annie immersed herself in the warm water. She didn't hear anything from outside the

bathroom as the sound of flowing water drowned out any other noise. Besides, she was still dwelling on

the encounter with Rain at the party earlier.

Her heart felt like it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand when she remembered that Rain

had called her Miss An in an indifferent way.

She had always thought of Rain as a playboy without any plans of getting married. To her dismay, it

turned out that he not only got married, but now had an adorable son.

Before going to the party, she had hoped that Rain would still be single. She was going to test the

waters and see if they could have a chance to get back together. She loved Rain and was willing to

work out their differences and perhaps change his mind, so they could get married in the future. But

with what she had seen this evening, her plan almost made her look like a fool and she felt sorry for

herself.

She pretended to be okay in front of Rain. But she was alone now and did not need to hold back her

tears.

She stayed in the bathroom for a long time and her eyes were red and swollen. By the time she came

out, she had calmed down a little. She applied some products on her skin and was about to go to bed.

She threw back the quilt and was startled by the man asleep on her bed. She gave out an ear

deafening shriek. Fortunately, the sound insulation was quite good at this hotel. Otherwise, other

guests would have heard her screaming. Her scream was extremely loud but the man did not wake up.

She patted her chest to calm herself down, and when she recognized who the man was, she was C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

shocked, her eyes wide. 'Am I dreaming?' she thought to herself. She rubbed her eyes and realized

that she was not.

'How did he manage to get in? Did he come here by himself?' she scrambled for answers. Annie

looked around to check if there was something off in her room. She even put on a robe and opened the

door to look out in the hallway. It was quiet and not a soul was in sight. She came back inside, totally

confused.

She then went back to the bedside, and this time she smelled the alcohol in his breath. She couldn't

help but furrow her brow.

She took the time to gaze at his handsome face. 'He still looks so charming. That was the main reason

why I fell for him from the very beginning.' She remembered how she had been mesmerized the first

time she saw him.

"Rain, wake up." She forgot to call him Mr. Xia this time.

"Mmm. Leena, I want to sleep." Rain turned over and didn't open his eyes. Since Annie had left him, he

had never dated another woman. The only woman close to him was Leena, so he thought it was Leena

who was talking to him.

Annie's face turned pale when she heard that name. She almost forgot that he had a happy family and

a beautiful wife. There was no way she could win in this situation!

'What should I do? I can't just let him sleep here. What if his wife misunderstands when she finds out

about this? Yes, I am still in love with him but I will by no means be the third party, ' she thought to

herself.

She walked back and forth by the bed. She still hadn't figured out how he had gotten in her room. It

couldn't be that he had entered the wrong room. She didn't believe that a grand hotel like Kate Hotel

would make such a mistake for something so simple and basic as room assignment.

The current situation was like the one which had happened years ago. The difference was that he had

been single then and was a married man now. She couldn't sleep with him like they had done the last

time.

"Water..." Rain moaned in a low voice.

Water? Annie was stunned for a little while and then ran to grab him a glass of water.

"Here you go. Have a drink." Annie knelt beside the bed and handed him the glass, but he didn't

respond. It seemed that he hadn't woken up and was just talking in his dream.

Annie bit her lower lip and pondered for a while. Then she placed the glass on the nightstand and

reached out to help him sit. However, when she touched his body, she withdrew her hands at once as if

she had touched something with electrical current.

'Rain, what should I do? I can't just leave you here alone, and I can't sleep with you either. You are

really causing a big problem for me here, ' she thought to herself.

She went to the couch and sat there, thinking about their past and looking at him. She really regretted

having left four years ago. But there was no time machine that would take her back to undo what she

had done.

She held her knees and stared at the man on the bed who was sound asleep. How she wished she

could hug and kiss him. But she was a virtuous woman and would not sleep with someone else's

husband. She kept telling herself that he had a beautiful wife and a wonderful son. No matter how

much she loved him, she couldn't be the homewrecker.

She flashed a bitter smile and mocked herself. Her heart was aching as if someone were ripping it

apart, the pain reaching the depths of her soul. She took out her phone and the screen lit up.
