gaze swept over before he ordered, ‘Giveyour phone.”
Unaware of his intentions, she handed over her phone, only to be taken aback as he abruptly smashed it against the wall. ‘No! My
phone!” Her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief as she struggled to comprehend how he had destroyed her phone in such a
manner.
“Electronic devices are not allowed here. Your phone may be tracked, he stated nonchalantly, displaying no remorse in his tone.
“You can just askto turn it off. Why did you have to destroy it?” She pouted in anger. He closed his eyes and said, “If it
bothers you, I'll make it up to you by getting you a new one once we're out.”
She sighed. Although she wanted to argue with him, she decided to let it go as she considered his injury and the fact that he had
saved her. “| wanted to contact my parents. How am | supposed to reach them now?” she said with a hint of grievance. “For safety

As Willow considered her mission, it felt like everything was slipping away. She sighed helplessly, and a sudden realization dawned
on her. Surrounded by fresh vegetables and meat, she had no clue how to cook! Cooking was unfamiliar territory for her. Since
childhood, her family had employed a professional nutritionist, and she had never set foot in the kitchen.
A memory resurfaced of an archaeological expedition she embarked on, where her father had arranged for four chefs to take care
of her. At the end of the expedition, everyone on the archaeological team ended up gaining three pounds each.
As she returned to the living room and explored the place, she discovered several workrooms with only one bedroom available. It
appeared that this safe house had not considered the possibility of two strangers needing to live together.
Although she was overwhelmed, it was also something new and exciting in her life. Without a phone to play with, no books to read,
and being unable to indulge in any of her hobbies, Willow could only sit down. Munching on fruit, she kept company with the

“Never mind. Focus on your recovery! I'll take care of this matter.”
“Thank you, Mr. Presgrave.” Dabreathed a sigh of relief, confident that Elliot could save Willow. At Presgrave Residence, Elliot
