Yvonne didn't see Stephen anywhere, even when the party came to an end. When she got into the elevator, she stopped at the level where the guests were staying without knowing why. She got out of the elevator and walked to Stephen's room. Outside his door, she raised her hand, thinking of pressing the doorbell.She hesitated. What should she say to Stephen when she saw him? Was she going to try to cheer him up? Or promise that she wasn't interested in other men?Her mind was in a mess. She retracted her hand slowly. Forget about it. They were at such an awkward stage in their relationship. If she appeared right in front of his room, it would only make things even more awkward.At that thought, Yvonne turned and left. The carpeted floor silenced the sound of her high heels, so she left silently.As for Stephen, he never knew that Yvonne had stopped by.At that moment, he was in his room. He thought about how excited Yvonne had looked when she had spoken about Chuck Jensen. H

Half an hour later, Yvonne returned to her room from the third floor. The moment she got out of the elevator, she saw Stephen standing outside her door. She approached him and asked deliberately, "What? Are you no longer angry with me?""Why did Chuck look for you?" Stephen asked coldly."For a business deal." Yvonne took her keycard out and opened her door.Before she could take off her shoes, Stephen pinned her against the wall. He looked into her eyes. "Are you planning to work with him?""I haven't decided about it yet, but his offer is quite enticing."Yvonne hadn't given Chuck an answer. She had said she wasn't managing Hopeful Faith, so she had to get Conan's opinion on this.However, Chuck hadn't given up that easily. He had offered many conditions that would be advantageous to Yvonne. He had asked her to think about it properly.Yvonne was conflicted about this, so she looked up at Stephen and asked, "Do you think there could be such a good deal?""No," Stephen answe

That morning, one of Yvonne's staff reported, "Mr. Noah Anderson is looking for his wife. He said that he had gotten drunk last night and returned to his room to sleep. When he woke up, he could no longer find her."Upon hearing that, Yvonne waved her hand, signaling for the staff to leave the room. Once the door was closed, Yvonne went behind the screen to look at Katie sitting on the bed."Now, do you realize Noah's intentions? He didn't kill you because he was drunk and lost his temper. He had long planned to kill you. Bringing you on this ship was the first step of this plan."Then, Yvonne looked out of the window. "The sea is the best place to hide bodies. He could be rid of all accountability."Katie's face lost all its color. She lowered her head, unable to find her words. Even though she was sitting on a soft bed, she still felt as if she were in the sea. Chills ran down her back. She still couldn't forget how murderous Noah had looked the night before. It was terrifyin

Late at night, under the starless sky, the sea was pitch black.Noah was drunk. He stumbled back to his room. He opened the door and was just about to turn on the light when someone gently held his hand.He jumped. "Who is it?"That person said nothing. In the darkness, he saw the shimmering black dress. He remembered that dress clearly. Yvonne had worn that shiny black dress at the party. Her figure had looked so charming that he still had constant dreams about her.Under the influence of alcohol, he grabbed the woman by the wrist and pinned her against the wall. He didn't even look at her face before kissing her violently.Surprisingly, she was cooperative. Noah buried his head in her neck and kissed her. "Yvonne, why all the pretense? You still come to me in the end."At the thought of how Yvonne was Stephen's woman, he became rougher.He tore off her dress. She moaned a little. It was extremely exciting in the silent night. Noah could no longer hold back. He picked her up

By the time Noah came around at the hospital, it was already night. He had no idea how long he had been unconscious. He thought he was still on the ship."You're up?"Noah got a fright. He turned to look at the source of the voice and became terrified instantly."Y—you … H—how …"Soon, he recalled the incident the night before. He frantically tried to sit up, but an excruciating pain shot through his lower body. He no longer dared to move.Katie reached out, wanting to press Noah down, but he shoved her away."What did you do to me?" Noah barked.Katie paused for a while before gently smiling. "I only gave you the punishment you deserve. After all, I almost died thanks to you.""You …" Noah's eyes reddened. He glared at Katie."Are you a human or a ghost? How could you still be alive?"Katie smiled and asked in retort, "You were too ferocious in bed last night. Are you still unsure whether I'm a human or a ghost?"Noah became infuriated. He clutched Katie's neck and squeezed
