The room was adorned with rose petals, creating a captivating red ambiance that
seemed intoxicating even without any alcohol.
Sherry gently nudged him, “Um, I haven’t changed my shoes yet.”

She was still wearing her small white shoes, which had become slightly dirty from
walking outside. The delicate and exquisite petals made her feel like stepping on them
would be sacrilegious.
She attempted to squat down and remove her shoes, but Mr. Sniper was quicker.
He knelt in front of her, one leg on a horizontal beam, and pulled her onto his lap.
“Hey, I think I can do it myself.”
Mr. Sniper didn’t say anything, but his strength was unstoppable. Once she sat on his
lap, he reached down and helped her untie her shoelaces.
Sherry’s hands were fumbling, and her body was tense.

“Sherry…”
Mr. Sniper continued to assist her with changing her shoes, suddenly exclaiming,
startling Sherry, “Huh? Is it difficult to take off? Let me do it myself.”

Mr. Sniper carefully examined her little white sneakers in his hand, amazed. “What shoe
size do you wear?”
The small white shoes patiently rested in his large palms, even though they were longer
than his own.
Sherry blushed and said, “Size 34.”
Actually, it was even smaller than size 34, but since they were lace–up shoes, it didn’t
really matter. Wearing shallow–fashion women’s shoes was no different than wearing
slippers.
“Alright,” Mr. Sniper nodded. “No wonder you don’t want to wear the smallest size high
heels in the wardrobe; turns out they don’t fit.

The smallest size for high heels was 35, and it was far too small.
But the main reason Sherry didn’t wear high heels wasn’t that; she simply didn’t know
how to walk in them.

The 15–cm high heels from the car show had already left a psychological impact on her,
making her afraid of wearing high heels.
“I think canvas shoes are comfortable,” Sherry stated, adding, “I have a long walk to the hospital, so little white shoes are more convenient.”
On the other hand, Mr. Sniper said, “I’ll have someone custom make a pair of size 34
shoes for you; you might need them at some point.”
Mr. Sniper seemed to have more to say.
“Just this once.”

be ready in the future, and I will no longer need to be a makeup artist and be thrust into
the spotlight.”
“Unfortunately, you are too good–looking,” Mr. Sniper said as he lifted her up and neatly
placed her small white shoes in the shoe cabinet. “Do you know that everyone in
Herzoslovakia City’s youthful and prominent circle is debating who you are?”
“Really?” Sherry asked, astonished. “My makeup was so heavy.”
“These people are around women all day; their eyes are sharp. There’s a wealthy
second–generation who is pestering Mateo for your contact information, and Mateo
almost kicked him out.”
Mateo’s temper: if this person wasn’t a wealthy second–generation, he would have been
kicked out long ago.
“Sherry, I just bought a piece of land right under Tazbekistan Mountain; I want to build a
castle there.
Sherry wasn’t sure why he suddenly changed the subject, but she agreed gently, “Okay,

it’s not convenient for you to always stay in a hotel. Now that there are so many
paparazzi, they will definitely find out your true identity. The hotel is a bit special, and those immoral paparazzi might even spread rumors about you.”
“It is a bit inconvenient, but not for me.”
Sniper led her into a long corridor; the petals under their feet emitted a fragrant scent.
She could almost feel Sniper’s ardent gaze fixated on her bare feet with her petite and cute jade–like feet, the red and white intertwined.
“I want to build a castle and hide you there so no one can see you,” he added, stopping!
in front of the bedroom window.
Sherry bit her lower lip, a blush spreading across her cheeks.
“I shouldn’t have let you leave this room in the first place. If I had known that letting you
out would bring you so much bad luck…”
His tone was serious, not lighthearted.

Sherry later regretted saying this.
She knew Sniper’s true identity, and Sniper knew it too.
If he was still playing the Masked Knight in Room 2307 of the Hilton Hotel, she would
never have pried into it.
He had provoked her, and she had blurted it out, wanting to take it back, but it was too
late,
“I apologize… I…
“Sherry,” Mr. Sniper said calmly, “have you already decided that I’m Maverick?”
“I…” Sherry shook her head. “I’m not sure. But I swear not to investigate any further.”
“I don’t blame you,” Sniper said, holding her horizontally and gently placing her on the bed covered in white blossoms. “I’m just afraid that when I take off my mask, you’ll be
disappointed.”

“Perhaps I don’t want to be tall, handsome, rich, and powerful like Maverick in your
imagination. Without these halo effects, I’m just an ordinary man who loves but can’t
have. I’m worried that you’ll abandon me because of this difference.”
His statements were perplexing, as if he was admitting something but also not
admitting anything.
“You said that if I don’t leave you alone, you’ll never give up on me,” Sherry murmured
quietly as she leaned against his chest. “Is that promise still valid?”
“Of course.”
“What’s the expiration date?”
“Forever.”

former love returns to you. You mentioned that you don’t believe you’re worthy, but I feel the same; I want to be selfish just this once; I don’t want to return you to her.”
