The bespectacled girl looked around fearfully, panic written all over her face.
"Don't be scared, the intruders have already run off."
The bespectacled girl breathed a sigh of relief and put down her pistol, "My God, what just happened."
"Two robbers came onto the yacht and tried to attack me." Luke extended his hand, "Give me the gun."
The bespectacled girl was a bit reluctant, "This is my gun."
Luke snatched it away, "I just wanted to tell you, you need to unlock the safety before using it." Luke disengaged the safety and loaded it, "I'll keep this gun for now."
The bespectacled girl felt a bit embarrassed. "I know how to use a gun, I just got nervous when I heard the fighting."
"I know, the one who knows how to use a gun is the you who didn't hear the fighting, not the you right now.
If you heard gunshots, you'd be even more nervous and might not even be able to hold the gun." At this, Luke didn't want to discourage her, "But coming out to help me, that took a lot of courage."
The bespectacled girl gave up the idea of asking for the gun back and changed the subject, "Where is Miss Finn?"
Luke also realized something was off; the confrontation with the intruders happened in the lounge, and the master bedroom was right next to it, so Lilith should have heard.
"Damn it!" Luke rechecked the gun and headed up to the second floor of the yacht.
The bespectacled girl followed and asked, "Could Miss Finn not have heard the noise and is still asleep?"
"That's possible." Luke replied absentmindedly; given that the bespectacled girl heard from the first floor, it was unlikely Lilith hadn't.
Of course, there was also the possibility that she, cowardly fearing for her life, heard the commotion but didn't dare come out, hiding in some corner of a closet.
The two entered the lounge, the bespectacled girl turned on the lights, and Luke headed to the end of the lounge. Behind a door was Lilith's master bedroom.
The door was closed, Luke knocked, but there was no response.
The bespectacled girl came over, entered the code, and the lock clicked open.
Luke entered the master bedroom with the gun. The room had a faint fragrance, absent the familiar scent of blood, for which Luke was temporarily grateful.
The bespectacled girl flipped on the wall lamp, and the room lit up.
Luke scanned the surroundings, seeing nothing suspicious, and put away the gun.
Lilith lay on the bed covered by a thin sheet, turned away from them, lying on her side, still motionless.
"Miss Finn…" The bespectacled girl called several times, but there was no reaction.
She looked at Luke, worried, "What's wrong with her?"
Luke said nothing, approached the bed, and reached toward her neck, feeling warmth and a pulse, there should still be…
Suddenly, Lilith moved, turned around, and her eyes met Luke's.
"Ah!" Lilith exclaimed, jumping up from the bed, then landing against a nearby wardrobe, terrified, "What are you doing? Why are you in my room?"
Luke and the bespectacled girl were also stunned; Lilith wore only white lace panties, with nothing on her upper body, her perfect curves swaying, her body smooth as a mermaid.
The bespectacled girl let out a sigh of relief, "Miss Finn, glad to see you're still so lively."
Lilith gathered herself, regaining some composure, covering her chest with her hands, "You two perverts, why did you suddenly enter my room?
Close your eyes, don't look."
Luke handed her the sheet, "You were sleeping the whole time?"
"What did you say?" Lilith used the sheet to cover herself with her left hand, while pulling two white earplugs from her ears with her right,
"You must give me an explanation, or I'll call my lawyer right now.
And don't use April Fools' as an excuse, I won't accept that.
Lucky for you I have a healthy heart, or you would've scared me to death."
Luke looked at the earplugs in her hand and said to the bespectacled girl next to him, "You explain."
"Miss Finn, two intruders came onto the yacht just now, and Mr. Lee chased them away. But you never appeared, and we were worried something happened to you, so we entered your room.
We knocked, but there was no response."
Lilith understood the situation, sat back on the bed awkwardly, shrugged her smooth shoulders, "Sorry, I misunderstood you two.
I hate being disturbed during sleep.
Once, a servant at home broke something and woke me up.
I threw a tantrum and scared them to tears.
I… also felt very guilty.
Ever since, I've liked wearing earplugs when sleeping in unfamiliar places." Lilith looked at Luke, filled with apology, "Sorry, I misunderstood you, I overreacted."
"You didn't overreact.
If someone suddenly appeared by my bed, they'd probably be meeting their maker." Luke joked, adding a reminder, "But wearing earplugs isn't a good habit, if intruders had come in, they wouldn't be as kind."
"You're right.
But with you here, I feel safe enough to sleep soundly." Lilith flattered, then asked, "By the way, didn't you fire your gun? If I'd heard gunshots, I would've woken up even with earplugs."
"No."
Lilith shrugged, "Why? That's not like you in Los Angeles style?"
Luke pulled out the Glock pistol and showed it to her.
Under the light, the barrel was clearly a bit bent. Lilith took the gun to inspect, "Wow, looks like the fight was fierce."
Luke suggested, "You should personally take a look to see if you recognize the two intruders on the yacht."
