But she ran away.
Because he felt guilty of stealing.
When she realized and went back to the banquet hall, Brayan and Jennifer were already gone.
The night view of Utharia was magnificent.
The driver responsibly dropped Jennifer off at the hotel entrance and didn’t leave until he saw her
go inside.
But Jennifer didn’t return to the room.
As soon as she walked through the door, she was blocked by an unexpected person.
“Here you go.”
When Devan handed a big bunch of red roses without pistils to Jennifer, she was at a loss.
“How come you’re here?”
“I heard you thanked me on the runway, so I came.”
Devan told it like it is.
Although the eyes behind Devan’s gold–rimmed glasses always seemed to be laughing cynically, Jennifer didn’t detect any hint of lying in Devan’s words just now.
“You can take this flower with confidence. I removed all the stamens,

then I glued the petals back together one by one. It took me a lot of effort.”
Devan’s tone sounded like he was fishing for compliments, but Jennifer couldn’t help but think:
So, why go through all this trouble instead of giving something else?
“Thank you, I accepted the flowers.”
Anyway, Devan sincerely gave her flowers, so Jennifer naturally didn’t refuse.
This was the first time she held such a big bunch of flowers without sneezing.
Jennifer got on the hotel elevator, and Devan followed.
“Are you also living here?” Jennifer wondered.
With Devan’s wealth and status, it doesn’t make sense for her to stay in a budget hotel like me.
“No.” Devan shook his head.
Just as the elevator reached the floor, Jennifer stepped out first, with Devan following right behind.
“I had nowhere to stay, so I had to reluctantly stay with you for the night.”
Jennifer froze in her tracks and turned to look at Devan.
Devan had one hand in his pocket, the other hand pushing his gold- rimmed glasses, with a gentle smile.
Jennifer couldn’t tell if Devan was joking or being serious.

“Men and women don’t get close, have you ever thought about whether I’m willing to spend the night with you?”
Devan smiled.
“If you don’t want to, I’ll just force you to agree, how about that?”
“I would have called the police if you had done that.”
“I’ve been to the police station many times anyway, one more time for Utharia doesn’t make a difference.”
Devan’s words really got Jennifer fired up.
She never expected that her speech would actually attract Devan.
She never even thought Devan would watch the Treasure Jewelry Fashion Week runway show.
Considering Catalina was involved this time, and Devan is on Catalina’s side, it’s not surprising that he saw it.
As a result, Devan followed Jennifer to the door of the guest room like a piece of sticky plaster that couldn’t be shaken off.
“Devan, do you really have nowhere to live?”
Jennifer asked earnestly.
“Of course it’s true, I flew over on a whim and didn’t book a hotel in advance.”
Jennifer couldn’t tell if Devan was telling the truth or not, so she decided to take it as true for now.
“You can’t stay with me, but I can ask Curtis if he’s willing to take you in.”

“Why can’t I live with you?”
Suddenly, Devan leaned forward slightly and moved closer to Jennifer.
Jennifer subconsciously took a step back and leaned against the door.
“Are you a married woman?”
Devan’s smile was inscrutable.
Jennifer was about to retort, but then Devan continued,
“Since Brayan could share a room with Catalina, why can’t you live with me?”
