Chapter 152
Westin was the last person Janet expected to see here.
This was the maid’s dormitory, restricted to men. The guard’s rooms were on the other side of the
building.
Westin shouldn’t have the access.
Yet nobody here was top panicked to see a man enter their dorm. Instead, all maids seemed pretty
excited to see Westin.
“Westin!”
One maid cried and hurried to welcome Westin, wrapping her arm around Westin’s, “What are you
doing here? Are you here to play poker with us tonight?”
Before Westin could answer, two more maids rushed over slapped the first maid’s hand away, and
yelled:
“Gill! You stick at poker! Westin, you should not let her play with us this time.”
“Yeah, she is such a bad player. Westin, come over to my room. I just bought a new bottle of Bourbon,
your favorite kind.”
The first maid named Gill blushed with embarrassment.
She snapped, “The Bourbon you bought is the cheapest kind you can find in a liquor store! Westin
doesn’t drink her wine. It will hurt your tongue. Come and hang out with me. You said that you liked
playing poker with me, didn’t you? Tell them, Westin!”
Janet watched this bunch of women fight over Westin with a raised eyebrow.
It sounded like Westin often came to the maid’s dorm during the night and hung out
with them.
He made all the girls go crazy for him.
What a womanizer.
Just then, Wendy cleared her throat, silencing all yells and yammers.
“What the hell are you doing?” she said sternly to those maids, “There is a curfew! And you are all
getting up early to serve the masters tomorrow. Have you all lost your mind?”
Gill and the other maids pouted and lowered their heads.
Wendy then turned to Westin and a smile appeared on her lips again, “Westin, but if you would like to
kill some time before bedtime. We can talk over a nice bottle of wine in my room…”
Janet let out a loud, sarcastic laugh.
“What the hell are you laughing about!” Wendy glared at her.
Janet shrugged, “You didn’t allow the other girls to hang out with Westin, but you can do it yourself. I
am just laughing at the double standard.”
Wendy’s face turned tomato red.
“I am the supervisor!” Wendy yelled, “I am just–We are going to discuss some serious matters-”
“What serious matter? Oh, like when can I get a decent room with a proper bed?”
“You whiny little bitch-”
Westin raised a hand and interrupted their quarrel, “Wendy, I appreciate your offer. But I am not here to
chat with you or play poker tonight.”
Wendy looked disappointed, “But…”
“Not tonight,” Westin said in a polite yet firm voice. “I am here to check on a certain someone.”
Hearing him say that, all the maid’s eyes lit up with excitement.
“Who?” Gill asked with an expectant look, “Is it me?”
Westin smiled.
His gaze traveled across the crowd and landed on Janet’s face, “Janet, how are you doing tonight?”
An astonished gasp could be heard from the crowd.
“You are here to check on her?!” Gill snarled, “How did you know her?”
Yet Westin didn’t answer. He was still looking at Janet with his full attention, “So what is the earlier fuss Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
about? I heard that you don’t have a room?”
Janet looked sideways at Wendy, who suddenly seemed very nervous.
“All I get is a closet with a dirty rag tossed on the floor,” Janet said. “As for the reason, maybe you
should ask the supervisor.”
Westin turned his gaze back to Wendy.
“Wendy?” he demanded, his voice
cold.
Wendy gulped. Her breathing became shallow, “I…It is just temporary. We don’t have an extra room. All
dorms are full…”
“So when can I get my own room?”
“Soon.” Wendy simpered, “Let me see what I can do.”
But Janet knew that “soon” probably meant never.
Westin said with a nod, “OK. I see what is going on here. I have a simple solution to this,”
Janet looked at him.
Just when she thought that Westin was going to press Wendy to arrange her a room, she heard his
voice saying:
“Before Janet gets her own room, she stays in my room.”
“What?!” gasped all maids in unison.
“NO! It is against the rule!” Wendy cried.
Janet parted her lips in astonishment, staring at Westin in awe.
Her staying in Westin’s room… Was he crazy?
Westin still looked very calm, “I don’t see why not. Janet doesn’t have a room and I am inviting her to
stay with me. Is there a problem?”
“Maids shouldn’t stay the night in the guard’s room!” Wendy cried, “And you only have one bed….Are
you giving it to her? Or are you–are you staying in the same bed?”
Westin chuckled lightly, “I believe that the rule can be bent. As for the sleeping arrangement, me and
Janet will figure something out.”
With everyone staring at them in disbelief, he offered a hand to Janet.
“What do you say?” he asked with a smile.
After a long pause, Janet answered with a nod, “Sure. That works.” “NO!!” Wendy snapped.
She looked furious, partly because Janet wouldn’t be sleeping on the cold, damp floor as she had
hoped, partly because Janet was going to spend the night with the man that they all loved.
Janet darted her a cold glare, “It is your problem that I don’t get a room tonight. If you don’t like this
arrangement, fix it soon.”
She walked up to Westin.
“Let us go,” she said.
Westin beamed and rounded his arm around her waist.
When they were about to leave, Janet heard Wendy’s angry voice behind her back, “If you leave, I will
report this to the maters-”
Westin paused and looked beyond his shoulder. His gaze turned cold and sharp abruptly, “I don’t see
why we need to bother the maters with this. Don’t you agree, Wendy?“.
Although Westin looked nice and approachable most of the time, he could be pretty intimidating when
he was serious.
Wendy quivered. Slowly, she lowered her head and murmured a “yes.“”
Westin smiled, “Good. I am glad that we reached a common ground.”
He held Janet and led her to leave the maid’s dorm.
Janet shook his hand off as soon as they stepped onto the staircase.
“Thank you.”
She said in a polite yet distant voice, “But I can crush on a bench somewhere. You don’t need to take
me to your room.”
Westin chuckled, “Are you dumping me already? How cruel.”
His sexy, husky voice sent a shiver down her spine.
She quickly looked away from his gorgeous face and asked, “Why are you here tonight?”
“I heard that your crazy ex finally let you out of his room. So I have to come and see how you are
doing. Looks like I come at the right time.”
Janet gazed into the air, saying nothing.
Janet sighed.
He was right about that.
“Fine.” she caved in, “Where is your room?”
Probably the captain’s privilege.
Westin turned on the light and said. “Make yourself comfortable Would you like to
Westin turned on the light and said, “Make yourself comfortable. Would you like to take a shower?”
“No. I am good.”
Westin chuckled and pulled his shirt over his head, “Then excuse me for a moment.
He got into the bathroom.
There was only one twin–sized bed.
Janet cast a quick look at the bed. Her heart rate quickened slightly.
Don’t be ridiculous. She told herself internally.
Then she went to sit on the couch and waited for Westin.
Moments later, Westin got out of the shower.
His damp hair clung to his forehead, adding to his rugged charm.
The water droplets glistened on his chiseled chest and slid down his n body following his well–defined
abs, eventually disappearing into his shorts.

He was indeed gorgeous, making it impossible to look away.
“Why are you sitting on the couch?” he asked, drying his damp hair with a towel.
“There is only one bed.” Janet pointed out the obvious.
“And?” Westin raised an eyebrow.
“I don’t mind taking the couch,” Janet shrugged.
Westin chuckled lightly and walked up to her. He bent down, bracing his hands on the back of the
couch, and looked straight into her eyes.
“There is only one bed. We are mates. And I am crazy about you.
His eyes gleamed brightly under the damp, golden hair.
“You see where I am going with this?”
