Chapter 150 Chapter 150 I was watching Clyde with a mix of amusement and curiosity as he shook his head vehemently, right before Lisa actually walked into the next room. Clyde and I looked at each other, and after what felt like an eternity, it seemed like she had no intention of leaving.
"Got any top-secret files in there?" I teased.
Clyde quickly denied it, his eyes wide with a mix of shock and horror. "Just sspare clothes. She's not skind of... weirdo, is she?" I couldn't help but push him away in disgust. I already imagined the bizarre scenarios running through his head. He made himself comfortable on my bed, saying, "Well, I'm not going back there. I'm sleeping here tonight." "I'm not dealing with a bitch in my room, no way!" I had to admit that his stubbornness was somewhat amusing.

"Do you think she's still there? You don't have anything... strange in your room, do you?" I asked with suspicion, noticing his eyelids began to droop.
With a tired gesture, he wrapped an arm around me. "Let's sleep. We'll find out in the morning, right?" I thought Lisa would leave at spoint during the night, but I barely slept and the door to the next room never opened again.
Only around 5 AM, I finally heard the door open followed by the sound of her yawning.
I quickly got up and pressed my ear against the door trying to catch any sound from outside. It seemed like the household was still asleep, but Lisa was making quite a bit of noise.
Clyde grumbled in his sleep, and I kicked him awake.
"Stop complaining. Let's go back now." He got up, groggy and disoriented. "She left?" I nodded. We made our way out and found out she was leaving. Clyde then returned to his room.
At breakfast, Talbot was unusually warm towards Clyde.

Noticing my tired look, Talbot seemed even more pleased. "Melanie, did you not get enough sleep?" Before I could respond, Lisa huffed Senf the trouble of "If you can't sleep, just use t over something."et upset over something." She flicked her hair playfully, leavingutterly confused.
What could she possibly have been doing alone in Clyde's room? Solo disco? But Talbot seemed delighted by engaging more in conversation than usual.
As Clyde left for the office with him, Talbot even made a point of felling eto catch up on sleep. Back in my room, I was confused by Lisa's smugness.
I was about to lie down when there was a knock on the door. It was Lisa, and I instinctively tried to close the because she would notctoout of good intentions. But she raised her voice, "Melanie, let's talk. You can't just hide away forever."
Her words attracted the attention of the household staff, adding-tomy confusion. She pushed pastand quickly locked the door behind her. I saw her leaning against the door and I could not help but ask, "What the hell..." "Shh." "There are no hidden cameras here right?"
