Chapter 365

"What are you staring at? Go get me water!" Sophia Laurent kicked the blanket impatiently.

Julian Roscente stood up with a dark expression.

The ice water cooled her throat, bringing some clarity to Sophia's mind.

"Did you need something?" She adjusted her robe. "Sorry to keep you waiting..."

While he fetched the water, she had already dressed properly. Noticing the clock striking eleven, she arched an eyebrow.

"Sorry?" Julian sneered. "Since when does the great Sophia Laurent apologize?"

He slammed the glass onto the coffee table.

"Ordering me around like a servant?"

Sophia frowned. "Who pissed in your cereal this morning?"

"Explain the man from earlier."

"Explain what?" She combed her fingers through her hair absently. "Do you report every woman you sleep with to me?"

Julian's Adam's apple bobbed. "I'm your boyfriend now."

"Fake boyfriend," Sophia corrected. "Clause three: no interference in personal lives. I didn't break our agreement or embarrass you."

She glanced around the suite. "This is nice. Keep it reserved for me."

A vein throbbed at Julian's temple.

"Get me an extra keycard too," she added.

"...For who?"

"For other people, obviously." She gave him a look reserved for idiots. "One key isn't enough."

The door slammed shut behind Julian's exit.

"Psycho," Sophia muttered at the empty doorway.

Room 1901's door burst open with a kick.

Julian grabbed the phone. "No duplicate keys for 1901!"

He dialed the manager next. "Send ten women up here!"

The assistant intercepted the call. "Right away, sir!"

Twenty minutes later, the suite overflowed with giggling women.

"All ten?" Julian deliberately raised his voice.

The manager wiped his brow. "Yes, sir. Not one less."

"Get them inside!"

The women tittered as they flooded into the room.

As the manager turned to leave, Julian yanked him back by the collar.

"What's this about 1901?"

"As you instructed... permanent reservation..."

Julian's pupils constricted. "When did I say that?"
