Without sparing a second, Asher got up from his seat and turned to Seraphina. "Lead the way," he said firmly. But of course, Melissa had other plans and interjected.
"Brother, really… there's no need to take it this far," she tried to stop them. "I know I was wrong to create a scene, and the maids already said Sera might've taken the things to her dorms. I mean… she probably took them by mistake…"
"There is no need for you to speak up for me," Seraphina cut in, her voice cold enough to send chills. "I don't like being accused. So please, go ahead and check my room."
"I will," Asher nodded, looking straight into her eyes. "But tell me… where exactly is your room?"
He knew already. Of course, he did. But still, he asked, scanning the reactions in the room.
The maids flinched at Asher's words.
