The doorbell rang, and Kevan, who got annoyed, furrowed his brows and walked to the door. He asked in a cold and displeased tore. “Who

is it?”

Ruby’s sweet voice came through the door panel “Room service.”

He briefly closed his eyes, pushing aside his aversion. In no time, he put on a gentle smile and opened the door, allowing her to push in a

food trolley.

“I bet you’re hungry,” she said. “I ordered your favorite dishes. Come and try them,”
