Alex turned toward the potted plant. His footsteps were unhurried, casual, like a man strolling through a garden. He stopped right in front of her hiding spot and leisurely parted the leaves one by one.
“Hi, Selly,” he said in a voice as sweet as syrup. “What are you doing out here, spying?”
Selly didn’t move.
“Selly?”
“This… this isn’t right, Professor.”
“Following your friend to a hotel room isn’t exactly admirable behavior either,” he replied smoothly. “In case you forgot, you just invaded Renata’s privacy.”
