“Hey, isn't that Marilyn's date?”

It wasn't long before someone recognized Harold as Marilyn's date.

That made them all the more curious about his identity.

“Philip, Craig, you two take care of things from here. Find those journalists and destroy all the photos they've taken. As for the Fields family... You two deal with it as you see fit!” Harold instructed when he saw the people surrounding them.

While Harold went looking for Jose and Laszlo, Marilyn stared at the bloodstain on the bedsheet with a complex feeling in her heart.

I may be in the entertainment industry, but my family has made me a very traditional and conservative person. That's probably why I'm still single today. I've always listened to my mom and tried to preserve my virginity for my future husband, but now... It'd be great if Harold were single, but he's already married to my best friend! How will I ever bring myself to face Isabella?

Since she was unable to think of anything at the moment, Marilyn decided to leave the hotel for the time being.

She couldn't care less about the Fields family's product launch tomorrow.


After getting dressed, Marilyn was about to step out the door when she paused in her tracks.

She then went back to the bedroom, folded the bloodstained bedsheet, and took it with her.

Little did she know, the blood on the bedsheet actually belonged to someone else.

Marilyn felt something was amiss when she left the hotel, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Upon passing by the banquet hall, she realized the party was already over.

Marilyn did see a group of people gathered in the distance, but she had no idea what they were doing.

As her mind was still a mess, she decided to ignore them and left Grandeur Hotel in a hurry.

Moments after she left, Harold dragged Jose from the banquet hall all the way to the hotel room.

He wanted Jose to explain the situation to Marilyn in person, but she was nowhere in sight by the time they reached the room.

Harold's expression was stony when he saw that the bloodstained bedsheet was gone as well.

He quickly gave Marilyn a call, only to find out she had switched off her phone.

Recalling her response earlier, Harold began to panic as he feared she would try to kill herself. Without wasting another second, he ran out of the hotel to look for Marilyn.
