In the main bedroom,
Xander, who had just come out of the bathroom, felt his ears prickly as if someone was talking about him. He paused for a moment, wondering who had badmouthed him.
A moment later, he just shook his head and put on his casual home clothes; a black t-shirt and black training pants.
Before going to his study room, he suddenly remembered what he wanted to tell Scarlett about house rules.
He walked out of his room and stood in front of Scarlett's door. After knocking a few times, no movement could be heard from inside. He peeked through the slightly ajar door but saw no one inside.
"Scarlett? Are you inside?" Xander asked. He waited for a while, but still, Scarlett did not appear.
"Is she sleeping on the couch?"
He couldn't see the seating area from where he was standing now. After the incident on B island, the girl suddenly fell ill. Somehow he feels worried.
Now he hesitated. Should he enter without the woman's permission, or will he need one?
