''Let me stay here for a while. I will leave once I fully recover.''
''No! Vincent Ye and I just started dating and he asked me to be his plus one to the wedding. Since I am trying to impress him, I have to maintain a clean image. What if he sees a man in my house?'' Ellie asked.
''Just take me to the bedroom. I really cannot leave like this. I will hide in the bedroom until you two leave the house.''
''This…'' Ellie sighed. Her eyes darted to the door when she heard a knock followed by Vincent's voice.
''Miss White?'' Vincent called.
Ellie's body froze and she exchanged a gaze with Derrick.
''Help me to the bedroom first. I promise, I won't blow this up for you.'' Derrick said.
''Okay!''
After helping Derrick into the bedroom, Ellie hurried to the door and opened it. She smiled when she saw Vincent's face.
''Sorry, I was in the process of doing my makeup.'' Ellie explained.
''It's okay. Are you ready?'' Vincent asked.
