The girl, Penny, apologetically adjusted her glasses and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Tracy, but Mister Shaun is looking for you. He told me to come and get you."
The crew member would not have been sent to deliver a message to Tracy if she had not been caught by Shaun doing nothing. She was particularly afraid of interacting with Tracy.
Tracy was the kind of person Penny feared the most—arrogant, completely disregarding the crew members. Moreover, Tracy had caused a bad reputation for all the crew earlier, which caused Penny to have a lingering dislike for her.
"Oh? Mister Shaun is looking for me?" Tracy's attitude took a 180-degree turn, suddenly becoming very amicable. She smiled and said, "Alright, I'll be there right away. Just give me a moment to tidy up my things."
"Okay, Miss Tracy. I'll be going, then." Penny weakly adjusted her glasses and subconsciously glanced into the room.
The wet footprints on the floor were hard to ignore, but she pretended not to see them. However, Tracy's intense gaze made her uneasy, and she dared not look for too long as she turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, Tracy grabbed her arm. "You're Penny, right?"
"Huh?" Penny was a bit puzzled. Tracy had never bothered to remember the names of the crew members, usually addressing them with 'hey, you'.
"I remember your name is Penny. Please tell Mister Shaun for me that I was just taking a shower, so it might take me a bit of time to get ready. Don't forget, okay?"
"Oh, okay." Penny remained somewhat dazed.
It was not until she left Tracy's dressing room that she began to process what just happened. Why did Tracy tell her that? It felt too deliberate.
Tracy stared darkly at Penny's retreating figure, her mind racing with thoughts about how to handle her if she started spreading rumors.
Even when he emerged, he spoke in a hushed voice, "Is everything settled? Who came? Did they suspect anything?"
Tracy stared at him for a moment, then burst into laughter. "You really are a coward, aren't you? How did you even have the courage to pursue me in the first place?"
Roland felt a surge of irritation. Even though this was the woman he loved the most, he would not allow his dignity as a man to be trampled. He quickly reached out and gripped Tracy's chin.
"What did you say? Have you forgotten we're in the same boat right now? You're not going to be let off the hook if I'm discovered too!"
Tracy rolled her eyes, completely dismissing his threat. "That's enough! Clean up your traces so I don't have to lie to the next person again. After all, you're the one who said we're in the same boat. If that's the case, use your brain and don't get caught so easily."
After pushing Roland's hand away, Tracy casually sat back in front of the mirror to resume putting on her makeup. Since she had told Penny that she would be a bit late in meeting Shaun, she might as well do just that.
