On the way to the bathroom, Lily passed by other rooms. Coincidentally, someone walked out from one of the rooms. When the door closed behind her, she saw a familiar face. Even though it was just for a short while, she was sure it was him.
She continued walking to the bathroom. After washing her hands and drying them, she came out. A tall figure was leaning against the wall in front of the bathroom, waiting for her.
"I was right," Justin exclaimed as he straightened up himself.
"You've always had sharp eyesight," Lily smiled, "Now, could you please excuse me?"
Justin blocked the path with his body and asked," Why are you here?"
Lily smirked, "I’m here for the same reason you are. Why? Is this hotel one of your properties as well? Am I not welcome here?"
"You still refuse to go back to the Lodge family?" Justin frowned. He was unhappy with the tone she was using.
"The Lodge family, huh? I'll return someday, but now's not the right time," she said.
"When is the right time?" Justin asked.
Seeing that Lily refused to answer his question, he continued coldly, "I've heard about your case. You didn't handle it well, but luckily, you didn’t bring any unwanted trouble to the family. Seeing that you still refuse to come back home, mind your behavior. You're still part of the Lodge family, and we can't have you embarrassing the family name."
"Rest assured, as I have nothing to do with the Lodge family!" Lily looked at him with cold eyes, brushed past him, and waved without turning around.
