“Okay, Eleanor agreed.

Behind her, Julian and Zoey were so shocked that they could not speak. We were the ones who started the fire. Why should Eleanor enjoy the benefits?
Zoey bit her lip. Even if Eleanor explained the reason for the fire, she did not explain the motive that she stole the lighter.
She could still say that she had ulterior motives.
Zoey’s vicious expression was seen by Eleanor. She took something out of her pocket before Zoey said.
It was a lighter.
Eleanor said, “I’m curious about something. I used a lighter I took from the table. Why did Miss Taylor’s lighter fall here?
“We were together just now. I can’t possibly steal a lighter in public, right? Later, I accompanied Julian to the washroom while Miss Taylor was walking around. So I had no time to steal a lighter.
“How did the lighter end up here?”
She looked at Zoey and Julian doubtfully.
Julian reacted quickly and said, “Miss Taylor, did you accidentally drop it when you were passing by?”
Zoey nodded repeatedly. “Yes, that must be the case. I also believe that Eleanor did not steal it.”
“I see. I don’t blame you,” Eleanor said and smiled magnanimously.
Her smile deeply annoyed the two of them, but they could only smile and hide their hatred.
Suddenly, there was a loud lightning. The mountain was enveloped in fog. The rain poured down.
Everyone hid back in the long corridor.
Siena looked at the sky and said, “The weather is bad. Looks like no one can go down the mountain today.- All of you can stay. You can leave tomorrow morning when the sky clears.”
Eleanor looked at the fog outside. Even though the rain had stopped, no one dared to go down the mountain rashly.
Everyone could only agree to stay.
Siena brought everyone to their room.
“Elijah and Miss Taylor are engaged. Naturally, they will stay in one room.”
“Eleanor, you can stay in the room next door.”
After distributing the rooms, Siena blinked at Eleanor.

Upon hearing that they were staying in one room, Zocy leaned towards Elijah shyly. “Siena, is it suitable?”
Siena raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a smile “Since Miss Taylor thought it was unsuitable, I’ll arrange another room for you. It won’t be troublesome
With that, she raised her hand and was about to call for the butler.
Zoey felt embarrassed and quickly said, “Siena, I’m joking. Thank you.”
Siena looked at her and smiled meaningfully.
She thought, Pretend to be pure?
Eleanor wanted to change rooms when she heard that it could be reassigned.
However, before she could speak, Siena was called away by a phone call.
Helpless, Eleanor could only walk to her room.
Just as she turned around, Julian suddenly grabbed her arm from behind.
She said, “Eleanor, are you afraid of being alone? Do you need me to accompany you?”
Eleanor’s arm trembled and she gritted her teeth, but she quickly regained her composure.
She thought, Accompany me? I’m afraid that Julian would kill me in the middle of the night.
Eleanor quietly pulled her hand back and replied, “No need. I’m a little tired. I’ll go back to my room to rest.”
Before Julian could speak again, Eleanor pushed the door open and entered.
The room was decorated very classically and beautifully.
But Eleanor had no time to appreciate it. She sat on the stool at the end of the bed, gritted her teeth, and took off her coat.
Under her coat, the cuffs of her shirt were burned black and stuck to her reddened skin.
Eleanor bit the coat, closed her eyes, and pulled hard. In an instant, her entire body trembled. She broke out in a cold sweat.
Her breath was heavy. She collapsed on the end of the bed and curled up.
Actually, when Julian slipped out of the washroom, she was right behind her.
From the moment she saw that there were a lot of flowers, she guessed that Julian and Zoey would definitely tamper with the flowers.
Hence, she took the lighter when she was drinking coffee.
Later, Julian repeatedly emphasized the importance of the flowers. Then, Eleanor knew that she had guessed correctly.

She had personally seen Julian take out Zoey’s lighter and throw it on the dead leaves.
However, Julian’s goal was only to burn flowers. She didn’t care about burning more or less.
But Eleanor had to make a big deal out of this.
Therefore, as soon as Julian left, she took out a lighter and lit it up.

It was just that she didn’t judge the wind in the mountains well. When she lit the fire, she was burned by it.
The silk shirt that Lily had given her was instantly burned.
Fortunately, she had extinguished the fire immediately, but she was still scalded.
Originally, it was not that serious. When Julian grabbed her just now, the small blister broke and a piece of red skin was torn off.
Eleanor closed her eyes and took a deep breath, wanting to ease the pain.
