His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 538

Before stepping into Nimbus Summit, Jonathan arranged a guest room for her.

Standing at the doorway, Niamh’s wariness was obvious.

“Don’t worry,” Jonathan said, handing her the keycard. “This is just for you to change. Nothing else. I won’t come in.”

With that, he handed her the card and disappeared into the room next door.

Only when Jonathan’s tall figure vanished behind the thick door did Niamh finally let out a breath.

She swiped herself in. The first thing she noticed was the spacious walk-in closet, doors thrown wide open.

Inside, an array of evening gowns hung—every color, every style, each one clearly a designer piece from the current season.

To the left stood a European-style vanity, the top crowded with high-end makeup and an impressive collection of sparkling jewelry.

On the right, a shoe cabinet brimmed with luxury brand shoes.

To her surprise, the shelves weren’t just lined with stilettos; there were also some sleek, fashionable flats mixed in.

Niamh crossed her arms and let out a sardonic laugh. “What is Jonathan playing at?”

Was he testing her fashion sense?

The antique clock ticking on the wall reminded her that time was slipping by.

Once she’d changed, Niamh opened the door—only to find Jonathan standing there like a sentry, blocking her exit.

He’d changed as well. The black satin tuxedo he wore was understated yet unmistakably expensive, exuding quiet luxury.

As Niamh looked him over, Jonathan was sizing her up too.

“What?” she asked first, “Disappointed?”

She’d chosen the most modest dress in the closet—a simple black gown without a single embellishment, its clean lines and perfect tailoring setting it apart amid all the glitz.

She wore no dramatic jewelry, only a pair of creamy pearl studs. On her feet were her favorite comfortable flats.

“Did you pick that because you actually like it?” Jonathan asked.

“I did.”

He seemed satisfied with the answer. A faint, almost hypnotic smile curled at his lips.
