Chapter 377 Double-Booked

Inside the car, a man dressed in a black suit ducked out of the car before standing up straight to reveal his tall figure.

His fair skin was exposed in the brief moment he ducked his head down.

He glanced at the luxury watch on his wrist with a blank yet stern face. Then, he strode into the hotel.

By the time Amelie got back from her meeting with the detective agency, it was already 10.00PM.

The hazy lights of this foreign land might twinkle warmly down at her, but it was not home.

She was surrounded by plenty of exquisite and luxurious shops, yet she did not stop by any of them. Instead, she headed straight into the hotel.

She got into the hotel and did not stop walking until she got to her room.

After taking out her keycard, she tapped it against the lock.

Beep! The door swung open.

As she massaged her forehead, she decided to take a shower before messaging Bria and Steven.

Just as she thought about that, she heard a clack.

She snapped her head up in shock to see a man walking out of the bathroom.

He had clearly just taken a shower as he was dressed in only a towel wrapped around his waist while his muscular body was exposed.

Drops of water slid off his black hair and down his chest before sinking into his towel.

Framed by his wet hair was his brooding, handsome, and stern face.

They both stared at each other in shock.

"Leo?" she called out in disbelief. It took her a few seconds to recognize him.

Amelie rubbed her eyes, thinking she was hallucinating. Why else would she be seeing Leo when she was in a foreign nation?

He was even in her hotel room.

She soon noticed the gray luggage bag standing near his feet.

She recognized that bag; it was the bag Leo had taken with him on business trips for years.

"Why are you in my room?" she asked with a hostile look in her eyes.

It was only then that he looked away and jerked his head at the nearby table. "I booked this room."

"You did?" She spotted the card on the table. Immediately, several impossible guesses flashed through her mind.
