In the end, it was Katherine who became embarrassed first. She averted her gaze and mumbled, "So you were in Charlotte's room, huh? I waited the whole night for nothing!"
Last night, while Elijah was intensely focused on his "battle" with Charlotte, Katherine had mustered up the courage to quietly sneak to the door of Elijah's bedroom.
Knowing that Elijah would practice with Charlotte until late every night, she didn't knock but went straight into his bedroom.
She spent a long time building up her courage, sitting on his bed nervously, waiting for Elijah to return.
But she waited and waited until she eventually fell asleep on the bed, never seeing him.
Early this morning, she woke up to find the room empty and guessed that Elijah had probably slept in some other woman's bed.
She sighed with a hint of resentment but also felt a strange sense of relief.
Afraid of being discovered, she decided to sneak back to her room early.
