Jeremy Thompson watched her hastening steps and did not immediately follow her but instead casually leaned on the balcony, watching her indifferently.
Taking a deep breath to calm her emotions, Anna Ainsworth spoke to Jeremy Thompson in an extremely indifferent voice, "Mr. Thompson, I will take my leave now. Thank you for sheltering me last night."
After she finished, without waiting for Jeremy Thompson to respond, she immediately went to push the door. However—
No matter how she turned the handle, the door lock did not budge. She immediately widened her eyes and stared at the lock for a long while before she noticed a sensor next to it.
Only then did she remember that Jeremy Thompson's door was equipped with a fingerprint lock, not easily opened by just anyone. Thus, if she wanted to leave, she would need Jeremy Thompson to open the door for her.
"Mr. Thompson, could you please help me open the door?" Anna asked somewhat helplessly, no longer able to muster any anger.
