But Raymond didn't say anything,and just carried her into the bathroom.

He put her down on a stool and said to her.

Hey ,I didn't say anything ,yuu can go wait out side , Marianne said lightly pushing him away.

Raymond did not say anything and left and locked the door from the outside.

After he left Marianne couldn't stop blushing ,This guy is so cheeky,she said to her self.

She quickly removed her clothes and helped her self into the bathtub, she soaked inside the bathtub ,for a long time to reduce fatigue before coming out.

She put on her night wear a d dried her hair.

Raymond ,she turned towards the door and called out.

Soon , Raymond opened the bathroom and came in ,are you done he asked her.

Marianne who had just finished bathing had red cheeks from the steam ,she looked at Raymond and nodded.

Raymond went forward and lifted her up ,and walked towards the room .

When they entered the room Raymond put her down on the bed and lay down beside her.

Okay then did Marianne notice that Raymond had changed clothes.

Did you take your shower in the other bathroom , Marianne asked.

Hmm ,Raymond just made a sound of agreement sn covered the both of the with the quilt.

You should get some rest ,okay Raymond kisses her forehead and said good night before lying.

Marianne was already used to his kiss so she didn't react much ,she just smiled and closed her eye ,and Raymond did the same.

AT THE SPRING LIGHT ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY.

You have been absent minded lately ,Peter gave Cassidy a bottle of water and sat down beside her .

Thank you Peter ,she took the bottle if water and thanked him.

Peter was one of the well known actors in the whole of America , He started acting when he was still in college up till now ,he is also from a prestigious family ,but he didn't have the passion in business ,so his family let him act since it was what he wanted. He was also everyone's idol in spring light.

So tell me what,s bothering you ,Peter asked.

Cassidy took a deep breath and said.,well some people came to our house today and took my father away ,my mum has been in shock ever since ,I don't know what to do,Cassidy pretended to choke up and said.

Peter,s face didn't look good after hearing what Cassidy said , Have you tried reporting to the police ,He asked.

Cassidy who was a number list said ,we did but the said that cannot file a complaint unless it is up to twenty four hours ,Cassidy wiped her tears and said.

It,s okay it is all going to pass ,do you suspect anyone peter asked .

Cassidy knew that she couldn't say yes because if she sisi he will surely figure out the truth, No but mum says it might be one of his business rivals ,Cassidy said.

Okay ,he will come back ,are you still going to act or should I drop you home ,pter asked.

I will stay a little longer it is almost dawn so I will go once it is bright outside ,Cassidy smiled lightly and said.

She needs to make sure that she gets peter because if peter is on her side she will be able to handle Marianne ,Cassidy thought to her self with a malicious smile on her face.
