After taking a quick shower, Emily Walker suddenly became nervous when she heard the bathroom door open.
Each night, as soon as Baron Stuart got into bed, he would habitually pull her into his arms, letting her rest her head on his shoulder as they slept embraced.
However, two minutes had passed and there was no sign of the bed being occupied. Instead, the sound of the man's footsteps grew more distant until the room door opened and closed again. Emily then realized that Baron Stuart had left once more.
Leaving the room, Baron Stuart, wearing a bathrobe, returned to his study to continue working that night.
Perhaps it was late, but Emily gradually drifted into sleep.
Early the next morning, when Emily opened her eyes, she saw the man standing in front of the floor mirror, changing his clothes.
She got up and walked to the restroom. Through the floor mirror, Baron Stuart knew that she hadn't even looked at him besides the glance when she woke up.
