Chapter 927
Squinting under the dim lighting, Ariana struggled to distinguish the small numbers on the card’s surface.
She wasn’t certain whether it displayed 306 or 309.
Coincidentally, she was passing by Room 306 at that precise moment.
Deciding to try, she gently swiped the card on the door’s sensor.
The door emitted a faint sound and glided open.
Ariana was oblivious to the abnormality.
She sighed inwardly, impressed by the cruise ship’s sophisticated technology that allowed her to access the room without having to push the door.
Ariana’s exhaustion was so overwhelming that she lacked the energy to overanalyze the situation.
She stepped into the room and instinctively closed the door behind her.
The room’s atmosphere exuded exquisite luxury.
There was a faint and pleasant fragrance in the air.
The sight of the bed proved too tempting for her already sleepy state.
After a quick wipe of her face, she collapsed onto the bed, and slipped into sleep.
Meanwhile, Sadie managed to regain her composure and returned to Holden’s side.
Feigning concern, she extended a cup of tea to him with a smile.
“Try this, it’s a new specialty drink I had someone bring for you.
”
Seeing Holden’s lack of response, she presented him a dessert.
“This one was specially made by their head chef.
I urge you to taste it and share your thoughts about it.
” Holden continued to ignore her, while she persistently tried to engage him.

Growing irritated by her persistence, Holden abruptly snapped his laptop shut, stood up, and readied himself to take his leave.
Sadie also rose from her seat and gazed at him with a concerned expression, “You seem quite fatigued.
Have you not been resting well? Why not take a break in the lounge?”

Holden frowned and replied in a cold tone, “It’s not necessary.
I’m going to find Adele.
”
As he made his way to leave, Sadie reached out and held his arm.
“I’LL go.
” Softening her expression, she said gently, “Let me handle it.
You should rest.
You’re on the verge of catching a cold, and I fear you might pass it on to our daughter.
”
Holden had recently taken cold medicine and its effects had made him slightly unwell.
After Sadie’s reminder, he grew concerned about Adele’s well-being.
So he nodded in agreement, took his laptop, and headed to the third floor to get some rest.
