Chapter 366 Accident!
At 11 PM, Rex drove Ryder back to Villa No. 1 at Platan Height.
After a night of traps and high mental concentration, Ryder felt extraordinarily exhausted and wanted to rest early!
Rex stayed in the guest room on the first floor near the entrance.
Any movement outside could be responded to immediately.
Ryder and Sarah stayed on the second floor.
Besides the master bedroom, there were two other bedrooms on the second floor.
The master bedroom had its own bathroom, and there was also a very spacious bathroom on the second floor!
As Ryder went up to the second floor, he noticed the bathroom light was on. And through the frosted glass, he could vaguely see a figure inside!
'Huh? Why is Sarah not using the master bedroom's bathroom and instead using the one outside?' Ryder thought.
He was a bit puzzled but didn't think much of it, assuming the master bathroom might be broken.
The sound of running water came from the second-floor bathroom.
Ryder suddenly remembered that a few days ago, after rescuing Sarah from the wild lake, they had almost reached a particular atmosphere in the room.
Just when he was having sex with Sarah, a call from the hospital interrupted them.
What a pity!
The memory, compounded by the banquet's drinks, stirred his inner longing.
'Why not tease her?' This thought popped into Ryder's mind.
After all, she was his legal wife, and she had said she owed him "compensation."
'Isn't it reasonable for me to seek a little benefit from her tonight?' he thought.
Thinking it, he did it.
Ryder quietly approached the bathroom door, crouching beside it, took a deep breath to compose himself.
At this moment, the sound of running water stopped.
She should have finished her shower and was now drying herself with a towel.
About two or three minutes later, the bathroom door opened, and a figure wrapped in a towel walked out!
Without a second's delay, Ryder stepped forward and hugged Sarah's waist, pressing his chin on her shoulder.
In a slightly teasing tone, he said, "Honey, shouldn't I get a little benefit from you tonight?"
However, to Ryder's surprise, a scream suddenly rang out!
Sarah's heel stomped hard on Ryder's foot, causing him to release his grip in pain!
Ryder immediately looked up, his eyes almost popping out!
Because the person in front of him was not Sarah at all!
The person before him was a bit taller, with fairer skin and long legs, but smaller breasts!
He didn't recognize her at first glance as her hair was tied up after a shower.
However, a few seconds later, he realized it was Barbara!
Ryder was completely stunned. No matter how he thought about it, he never expected this to happen!
"Sorry, I didn't mean to!" After being stunned for a while, Ryder could only awkwardly say this!
He secretly complained, thinking that he had hugged Sarah several times before and was familiar with the feeling.
No wonder it felt a bit off just now!
Barbara glared at him with wide eyes, her face flushed with a mix of anger and embarrassment. "Ryder! You jerk! Pervert! I never thought you were such a douchebag, ugh!"
With that, Barbara angrily turned and walked into one of the other bedrooms.
She slammed the door shut, leaving Ryder standing there at a loss!
Only then did he suddenly remember that today was the day Barbara was discharged from the hospital. Sarah had discussed with him earlier about letting Barbara stay for a few days because she really had no one to rely on in the Johnson family!
Ryder thought Barbara was kind-hearted and quite pitiful, so he agreed!
But today, he was so busy with the banquet that he forgot about it!
Coincidentally, at this moment, the master bedroom door opened!
It was Sarah, poking her head out, looking a bit drowsy and puzzled. "I think I just heard Barbara scream. Did something happen?"
Seeing Sarah's expression, Ryder guessed she must have been sleeping just now.
She definitely didn't see what happened.
So, he quickly lied, "There was a cockroach at the bathroom door, and it scared Barbara. She screamed, but I already killed it, so it's nothing."
Sarah looked puzzled. "That can't be! I've never seen a cockroach in our villa. How could there be one in the bathroom?"
Ryder forced an explanation, "Maybe it just coincidentally came in from outside! Anyway, it's dead now, so don't worry about it!"
Sarah nodded. "Alright, then hurry up to take a shower and come to bed. You always come back all sweaty!"
With that, Sarah retracted her head and closed the bedroom door!
Ryder breathed a slight sigh of relief!
Although it was a misunderstanding with Barbara and nothing occurred, Sarah finding out could lead to excessive contemplation.
It wouldn't be worth the trouble!
With a helpless smile, Ryder walked into the bathroom and took a quick shower!
After cleaning up, Ryder, wearing a bathrobe, walked into the master bedroom!
At this time, Sarah was already asleep on one side of the bed!
After all, Sarah had been very busy with work lately and needed enough sleep!
The bedside lamp cast a soft glow on her lovely face, making Ryder momentarily dazed!
'How lucky to have such a beautiful wife! Unfortunately, for now, I could only gaze from afar and had to restrain any sexual thoughts!' Ryder sighed inwardly.
No matter what, they had gone from sleeping in separate rooms to sharing the same bed, even though there was a clear dividing line in the middle, but one day, it would become history!
Ryder lay on the other side of the bed, just about to sleep!
WhatsApp notification popped up!
It was a message from Barbara!
Barbara: [Give me an explanation!]
Seeing the message from Barbara, Ryder felt a wave of unease.
After all, what had just happened was so awkward, he really didn't know how to face her!
Barbara: [Don't pretend you didn't see it. I know you're not asleep!]
Her intuition was spot on!
Ryder wanted to stay silent, as his intuition warned that responding to Barbara would lead to considerable trouble.
However, Barbara sent another message.
Barbara: [If you don't reply within ten seconds, I'll knock on your door and tell Sarah you just harassed me!]
Knowing Barbara's personality, Ryder was sure she would knock on the door!
So he had to give in and type a response.
Ryder: [Please! Don't be impulsive. Let's talk calmly!]
Barbara: [Alright! How do you plan to deal with your inappropriate behavior towards me?]
