Chapter 133 Puzzled

In the hotel's coffeehouse, Lila and Rhett chose a table by the window. Nearby, a few guests were sipping their coffee, speaking in hushed tones. "Did you hear? Mr. Cross and his fiancee had… an interesting time last night." "I did. Someone saw him come out of Ms. Hart's room this morning. His clothes were beyond rumpled." "They've been engaged for three years. It's about time they slept together." Lila continued to eat in silence. The gossip was exactly what she had expected. No one knew better than she did how much Damian adored Erin. Taking their relationship to the next level was hardly surprising. If anything, she found it strange that it had taken them three years to get there. Rhett ate with his usual composure, cutting into his fried egg slowly and gracefully. He seemed disinterested in the chatter around them, his attention fixed solely on breakfast. They finished their breakfast in silence and were just about to leave when a bright, energetic voice broke the calm.
