Joanna was stupefied as she observed the eager Julian. She thought to herself, ’Hey, my ex- husband is the one cheating here, so why are you so enthusiastic about it?’
However, she was able to co to a conclusion quickly.
"You entertainers really are quite open-minded! I bet you’re so eager to catch this paramour because you want Ace to be your sugar daddy, right?" Joanna concluded smugly as she entered the elevator too. She felt like Sherlock Hols for a mont, thinking she had figured out what was going on in Julian’s mind.
"Pfft!" Julian’s eyes widened as he nearly choked on his own saliva. This was a side of Joanna he had never seen before. "Don’t you think you’re over analyzing this?"
"Am I?" Joanna replied defiantly, as she really didn’t think she was. It was quite difficult to predict anyone’s sexuality after all, especially an idol’s.
So idols would interact in certain ways with the other mbers to maintain popularity using the fans’ shipping culture, while so would be involved in scandals regarding sugar daddies. As a mber of the famous LK Group, it wouldn’t be all that surprising for Julian to have such intentions.
"Don’t do it, Julian! Ace Moran is not a good person. You’d go mad if he beca your sugar daddy. You should just focus on collaborating with instead. If I’m in a good mood, I might just invest so money so you get to star in so films. You’d be popular in no ti!"
Although it may seem otherwise, Joanna did actually plan on doing so. Now that she was a single mother of two, she was thinking of investing in things that could help earn her more money. Besides,
the entertainnt industry was one of the most profitable industries.
"I’ll... think about it." Julian nodded cooperatively, the smile under his mask growing wider. He thought to himself. ’She’s so interesting! I just don’t get it... How could Ace bear to let go of such a precious little lady?’
Soon, the elevator brought them to the top floor of the Luxury Hotel. It was rather easy to find Ace’s room, since it was the only room on the entire floor.
"Julian, keep watch for , okay? Just cough really loudly if soone cos over," Joanna ordered as she walked out of the elevator on her tip-toes, quickly making her way to the suite door.
Julian continued following her, leaning his tall body against the wall. A casual smile was plastered on his face as he asked the woman, "So, how do you intend to capture them?"
"When did I ever say I wanted to capture them?" Joanna narrowed her eyes, explaining in a serious tone, "I’ve already divorced that man, so he’s free to date whoever he wants. Call nosy, but I’m just doing this to confirm the rumors. That’s why it’s best if we keep a low profile!"
After that, the woman placed her ear against the door, trying to listen for any movent inside. This action imdiately made Julian, who rarely smiled, let out a chuckle.
"You know this is the suite of a five-star hotel, right? The soundproofing will be pretty good, so are you sure you’ll get to hear anything at all?"
"They’re n, so they’ll definitely be rough with each other! Besides, my hearing is pretty good, so I should be able to hear sothing," Joanna said confidently as she gave the man a thumbs up.
She then proceeded to listen as attentively as she could, her body practically glued to the door.
"You seem like you’re having a hard ti there. Why don’t you let help?" Julian asked smoothly as he reached over her head and typed a password into the lock.
With that, the door to the suite flung open, causing Joanna to tumble straight into the room.
"What the...?"
Before Joanna could react, Julian disappeared from her view after saying, "Instead of sneaking around, isn’t it better to just go inside and look for yourself?"
’Why, you little...!’ The woman cursed him in her mind angrily. She didn’t even think about why Julian knew the password to the suite, all she wanted to do was make her escape. ’I’ll be dood if Moran and his mysterious boyfriend find out I’m in their room!’
It was fortunate that the suite was quite large, as she didn’t notice anyone around. Just as Joanna got to her feet to leave, she heard a voice coming from the bathroom.
’Oh my god, are they... showering together?’
Thinking about how intimate it was, Joanna couldn’t help but shudder, gulping nervously. ’I still can’t believe the man I loved for three whole years... is actually gay! This is devastating...’
up her courage and Due to her curiosity and unwillingness to accept the fact, Joanna mustered and walked towards the bathroom. She then pressed her ear against the glass door, just as she did before. She wasn’t lying to Julian when she said she had better hearing than the average person. She could easily make out Ace’s voice amidst the running water.
"Are you trying to toy with again? Where have you been for the past year?"
’What the heck?!’ Joanna furrowed her brows, utterly confused. She imagined Ace cornering the other man in the bathroom, after a whole year of pursuing him.
After a while, everything went silent. The coldness of the glass door faded, and it gradually beca warr.
’Sothing’s off!’ Joanna imdiately looked up, only to be t with Ace’s cold glare.
She froze, then waved at him and laughed awkwardly. "Hey... What a coincidence! Fancy seeing you here!"
She silently groaned, wishing she could dig a hole in the ground and bury herself in it.
"What are you doing?" Ace asked sternly, a strong aura radiating from his very being.
He had just finished showering, so his usually well-grood hair was now wet and ssy. It gave him a slightly disheveled sexiness, especially since there was only a white towel wrapped around his waist. With his muscular body, he looked especially charming in her eyes.
Joanna’s face turned red, and she struggled to keep her eyes on his as she maintained her composure. "Oh I’m sorry, Mr. Moran. Looks like I’ve entered the wrong room! I hope I didn’t disturb your bath ti with your... friend."
Joanna was once again too brave for her own good, standing on her tiptoes to get a peek inside. Her eyes widened in shock. "There’s no one in there?! Was this guy talking to himself just now?!
Feeling like an idiot, the woman decided to run off. "Have a good shower then! I’ll be going now, bye!"
Ace reached over, using his tall build to block her way as he said icily, "Do you think I’d let you leave so easily after you tried to spy on while I showered?"
Joanna’s face turned redder, and she scowled angrily. "What?! When did I ever spy on you showering? I didn’t even see anything, okay?! I...’
’Oh god, why am I trying to explain myself? It’s only making sound more like a pervert!’
"So what you’re saying is... you’re not satisfied?" A slow smirk spread on Ace’s face, and he dragged her into the bathroom by the wrist. "How about you take a better look then?"
