Zion stopped in his tracks.
Who was in Barney's room?
Zion wanted to probe further, but the person inside seemed to be a martial artist. After hearing some sounds coming from outside, he asked coldly, "Who is it?"
It was actually a man!
Zion's heart skipped a beat. He didn't dare to stay any longer. He quickly left and immediately returned to Evangeline's room.
Not long after Evangeline sat down, she saw Zion coming back. Before she could say anything, she saw Zion coming in and covering her mouth. He blinked at her with a serious look.
Both of them knew each other well after so many years, so Evangeline immediately realized that there was something wrong.
She directly wrapped her arms around Zion's neck and took him to the bed. Then, she turned over and pressed Zion under her body. Her eyes moved slightly.
Zion's heart slightly palpitated. The magnified face in front of him was both bright and pale, but it made his heart ache.
He couldn't help but grab the back of Evangeline's head, and his slightly cold thin lips instantly kissed her.
Evangeline was a little stunned, but she quickly threw herself into it and responded intensely.
Suddenly, the room started heating up.
The man outside paused and left.
When he returned to Barney's room again, Barney held a piece of paper tightly in her hand. The paper was deformed, which showed how anxious she was.
The moment she saw the man, Barney quickly asked, "How is it? Is it him?"
"No."
The man shook his head.
Barney almost couldn't stand up. She sat down on the bed and gasped for breath.
"Fortunately, it's not him..."
Her expression was sad, and inexplicably, it made people feel depressed.
The man sighed and said, "You can't hide it for long. What if one day Zion finds out about it from someone else..."
"He won't! I also won't allow him to know about this!"
Barney's weak eyes suddenly narrowed, and her reckless sharpness made the man stunned for a moment.
"Barney, why are you doing this?"
"It's none of your business. If there's nothing else, you don't have to come here often. I have to stay here for a while."
Barney had begun to ask him to leave.
The man frowned slightly.
"Zion wants to take Evangeline to rest here, and you also want to investigate the data here. If they don't want to stay here anymore, will you leave too?"
"What are you trying to do? I'm warning you, Jenson. Don't do anything so self-righteous. It's not up to you to interfere in the affairs between Zion and me."
Currently, Barney acted completely different than when she was with Zion.
Jenson suddenly laughed, and there was a hint of irony on his evil lips.
"Has Zion ever seen you like this? Barney, do you dare to let Zion see how you're acting right now?"
"Get lost!"
Barney flew into a rage from embarrassment and attacked Jenson directly. A silver needle immediately stabbed Mr. Hans. That strength was definitely done by a martial artist.
Jenson managed to avoid it. He knew that he had angered Barney, so he stood up and left with a complicated expression.
However, Barney sat paralyzed on the bed, and her mind went blank.
In fact, Zion had felt Jenson pass by the room, but he didn't dare to relax. After he left, he ended the kiss.
Evangeline still couldn't control herself. When she was shy, she heard Zion say, "Let's leave here early tomorrow."
"Hmm?"
Evangeline was a little stunned. "Didn't you say that we were going to recuperate here?"
Zion's eyes narrowed and he said apologetically, "Actually, there's another place that's suitable for you to recuperate. Here, Barney has to focus on studying Rita's data. I am afraid of disturbing her here. You know, I'm actually very concerned about Rita. For Rita's sake, let's not stay here anymore."
Evangeline subconsciously felt that this matter was not as simple as Zion said. But since Zion said so, she had no objection.
She was a woman, so she still disliked Barney slightly even though the latter was knowledgeable.
“Okay."
