It's Eli! And he's not alone. What do we do?!
Warren's eyes quickly assess the room, and then he grabs my arm and heads for the walk-in closet. He soundlessly shuts the door behind us. A moment later, the bedroom door opens
What is he doing here?
Warren raises a finger up to his lips, but I shake my head
it's okay, we can talk here . This is one of the panic rooms we designed when we first brought the house
it's a panic room?
Yes, and it's completely soundproof
Warren raises an eyebrow, seemingly impressed
That was a very smart idea
I walk over to the wall where Eli's shoes are stacked. I carefully remove the pair closet to the door and slide open the panel to reveal the bedroom. Warren follows me over and watches with interest as Eli and his assistant come into view
This is a viewing window. The painting by the closet door actually works as a two- way mirror. We can see out, but they can't see in
The painting of the mountains?
Yes. The details help to obscure us behind it. I wanted to make sure I could see out and monitor whatever was happening in the bedroom
That's brilliant
I lift my hand to press the small red button by the window
Do you believe me now?
what are you planning on doing with this?
I might donate the clothes, but the jewellery and decorations....
Eli wraps an arm around Lana's waist and roughly pulls her forward
Anything you want, it's yours
Her eyes light up
I can pick anything I want?
Anything. She had some pretty valuable pieces
Are you sure it's okay?
she's dead, sweetheart
Eli reaches up to brush his fingers against Lana's cheek
we don't have to hide how we feel anymore
I...
A conflicted look crosses over her face, and she abruptly pushes him away. Eli glares at her action but quickly schools his feature into a mask of concern
what's wrong?
You promised we would talk. You can't keep trying to seduce me to avoid this conversation!
You're just so beautiful. it's hard to keep my hands off you
oh, Eli
They're making out now
what if they head for the closet? He just promised her my dresses
I glanced at the several pieces Eli hadn't packed with the rest of my things
I refuse to let my husband's lover wear my favourite dress
Then, change into it while you can. I'll turn around and stand watch
Let's see what I have here.....
I picked a red rose dress, I looks romantic and sensual in this red dress
I might not look special, but it has sentimental value
You've changed? Good
what is going on with those two
