His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 788

“What is it?” he asked, shooting to his feet and striding to the bathroom door. “Niamh, is something wrong?”

“...No, nothing’s wrong. It’s just… ahem, I forgot to bring in my robe.”

Hearing the hesitation in her voice, Jonathan couldn’t suppress a chuckle. “I think it’s on the balcony. I’ll get it for you.”

From inside, Niamh heard his voice and felt as if he were teasing her. Soon, a knock sounded at the door. Jonathan was back.

She carefully opened the door just a crack. Jonathan’s arm reached in, holding the dry robe. “Thanks…” Niamh said as she took it, but then she noticed he wasn't pulling his arm back.

“What do you think would happen,” his voice, tinged with amusement, drifted into the bathroom, “if I just pushed the door open right now?”

“You rogue!” Niamh snapped.

A hearty laugh came from outside the door, and she saw his arm retreat. Breathing a sigh of relief, she put on the robe and stepped out to find Jonathan sitting on the sofa, working on his laptop.

“Marlin and the others are at Thomas Manor. You can video call him.”

“Oh, great!” A smile blossomed on Niamh’s face. For some reason, the name Thomas Manor gave her a profound sense of security.
