Chapter 151: Who’s Sleeping in Wyatt’s Bed?

Yunice narrowed her eyes slightly, a faint smile tugging at her lips. So there really is a lady of the house, huh? Jordan hadn’t realized he’d just walked into a trap.

He said, “Take today for example—when you said you wanted to bury Paul in cash, didn’t Wyatt end up on the exact same page?” That was true; going through all those steps did take time. Wyatt couldn’t have seen it coming—he really had just ended up on the same page as Yunice. Still, it was just a coincidence. It didn’t prove anything.

Yunice moved into the room Jordan had arranged for her. After he left, the entire castle went quiet. The room had everything she might need for daily life. After making sure there weren’t any cameras installed, Yunice took a shower and carefully cleaned up every strand of fallen hair. She didn’t touch any of the skincare products or face masks in the cabinet. Since this place had a lady of the house, she figured she’d better have some self-awareness and try not to stir up any drama. Her marriage to Wyatt was just for show; no need to make the real woman of the house uncomfortable.

She pulled a medicated oil from her bag and rubbed at the bruises the flying cash had left on her body. After that, she dabbed ointment onto the scar on her face. Looking in the mirror, the scar had already faded quite a bit; a quick touch-up with powder would make it nearly invisible.

Once she was done, Yunice crawled into bed in her pajamas. As she tugged the blanket over herself, she found herself wondering why the whole room was done up in black, white, and gray. Even the blanket was made of silvery-gray silk. Probably bought as a set, she figured, not thinking much of it. Before falling asleep, Yunice gave Gill a quick call. Gill had already returned to Maplevale Estate. Just thinking about the revenge on Elsie earlier that day had her too giddy to sleep.

Yunice, on the other hand, wasn’t quite as cheerful. Elsie feared Wyatt—not her. Using that leverage worked, but Yunice knew she’d have to put in a lot more effort on her own. What frustrated her the most was that she hadn’t used today’s incident to get the Yun family’s house. She’d let them catch a breath. Elsie clung to Paul like a lifeline, giving the Yun family a solid pillar of support. Still, there was no rush. If Owen was already desperate enough to consider selling the house, that only meant Yun General Hospital was running red lights all the way down the line. She still had a shot.

Ms. Saunders, are you sleeping over at Mr. Cooper’s place tonight? Gill asked in a teasing tone. Yunice responded dryly, “You really hope I’m getting laid that badly?” Gill burst out laughing. “Come on, Mr. Cooper’s not bad-looking—you wouldn’t be losing out.” Yunice said, “He’s already got someone. I’m not even allowed to touch him.”

She dropped the Wyatt topic quickly. Switching gears, she said, “By the way, Ms. Saunders, Taylor’s meds are almost out. Time to start round two.” Yunice let out a sleepy hum, her voice drifting off like a breeze. Today had drained her; lying in a comfortable bed made it even harder to stay awake. Gill could hear the fatigue in her voice and hung up. Yunice fell asleep with her phone tucked under her pillow, sleeping like a baby.

Even in her dreams, she wasn’t idle. She dreamed someone was on top of her, slipping a hand under the covers and kissing… In her sleep, Yunice arched a brow. Am I about to get my period or something? Why the heck am I dreaming about this stuff? Let’s see who the male lead is…

In her dream, Yunice opened her eyes. She saw a figure leaning over her, the scent of perfume thick in the air. A sultry voice whispered in her ear, “Wyatt, aren’t you lonely?” Yunice shoved the person off her in an instant. “Ahhh!” came a voice as the girl tumbled right off the bed. Yunice sat up and flipped on the light. Instant daylight.

The girl sat on the carpet, shielding her eyes from the sudden brightness, whining, “Wyatt, it’s me!” Yunice grabbed a pillow and hugged it like a weapon. “Open your eyes and take a good look at who I am!” As soon as Yunice spoke, the girl on the floor went quiet. She moved her hand away from her face and locked eyes with Yunice for three solid seconds.

“Ahhh!” The scream nearly burst Yunice’s eardrums. Covering her ears, Yunice watched as the girl scrambled to her feet, frantically searched the bed, then darted into the bathroom. When she couldn’t find any trace of Wyatt, she ran out the door. “Wyatt! There’s an intruder in the house!” The girl’s panicked yelling echoed from the hallway. Yunice quickly put on her slippers and straightened out her clothes. Wyatt would probably show up any second now.

She sat calmly at the edge of the bed, waiting. She figured this girl was probably Wyatt’s lover. Once he showed up, she’d have to explain their relationship clearly.
