The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2241

Roland gazed helplessly at the woman before him. Her calmness made him wonder if she realized the gravity of what she had done, or if even the tiniest sense of guilt was weighing on her conscience.

Roland's body grew weak and he seemed to have lost control of his limbs when he saw what Tracy had done. He flailed in the sea and nearly choked on the seawater, but someone from the crew eventually came to his aid. However, Tracy did not seem to struggle in such a manner.

Roland shuddered when he noticed that, and Tracy happened to catch his unease through the mirror. She asked impatiently, "What's the matter with you? Did you catch a cold because you were drenched? Or are you scared by that woman from earlier?"

'She cares about me,' Roland thought to himself. He approached Tracy and embraced her affectionately despite her seeming impatience.

"I'll never betray you," he said.

Tracy smiled in satisfaction after hearing what he said. "Good. Now tidy things up. I don't want you to catch a cold. I'd be worried if you do."

…

An unsettling feeling lingered when Penny left. She sensed someone observing her closely, but she did not dare to look back. Thoughts of the large wet footprints in Tracy's room haunted her thoughts because she knew that those footprints could not possibly belong to Tracy. Tracy was not that short, but the tracks resembled boat tracks, suggesting it could be a man.

'What is she hiding?' Penny wondered. Tracy mentioned having taken a shower to try and imply that the footprints were hers, but Penny doubted it. She was not stupid enough to accept such an explanation. Her first thought was that Tracy might not be worried at all if Penny found out the truth, and was merely saying that for the sake of it.
