When Larissa opened her eyes, she was still rather out of it.Even so, she could recognize that she was in Room 8888, the place where she had been "fortunate" enough to have spent that fateful night with Kevan.Shock and fear chasing away the last bit of tiredness in her bones, Larissa lifted a corner of the sheets—She was not naked like she thought she would be. However, her current state of dress was not that much better either. The clothes she wore yesterday were gone. They were replaced by a high-end silk dressing gown that the hotel had custom-made for high-profile guests.Moreover, the concealer on her neck was gone too, revealing deep red kiss marks.She could not remember what happened last night and dared not try to recall the events.She was alone in the huge king-sized bed, the space beside her empty. The pillows were stacked neatly at the head of the bed, and the sheets were neat apart from the side that she slept in.Larissa did not know if Kevan had already left t

Dylan was quite famous in his industry and had been specifically handling divorce cases for wealthy clients in recent years. The remuneration for each case was over a million dollars. In addition to his position as the co-founder of Microworks Corporation, buying a house in Covenford was as easy as pie."I happen to have an empty apartment. It’s just nearby in Foxtail Garden."Foxtail Garden was one of the elite, high-end neighborhoods in Covenford. Those who could afford properties there were either rich or had high social status. Moreover, Foxtail Garden was the closest neighborhood to the Regal Dynasty Hotel, and the surrounding facilities were readily available."Really? You’ll rent it out to me?" Larissa could not believe her luck."Of course." Dylan nodded, his face showing nothing but seriousness. "If you want to rent it, you can follow us to have a look right now.""Great!" Larissa agreed at once.There was a car waiting at the main entrance of the hotel. The moment Kevan

Kevan successfully got Travis to shut up. Choking, the latter managed to spit out, "Shameless bastard!"Kevan was unconcerned. He had lived for 34 years and had heard worse than this. The words "shameless bastard" had no effect on him at all."Is there any use in being modest?" he retorted. "I’m sure the two of you know better than I do that sometimes being shameless is the key to success."His sarcasm was obvious; Travis caught on to it immediately."You!" Enraged, Travis let go of Amber and charged over. His fist aimed for Kevan’s face, but the latter caught it a few inches before it could land."You’re biting off more than you can chew," Kevan sneered coolly as he twisted Travis’ wrist, causing him to turn around.Kevan then kicked the back of Travis’ knee. With a thud, Travis was kneeling on the ground.Covering her mouth, Amber wailed shrilly, "Help! Help! There’s an attack! Someone’s assaulting my partner!"Her voice was rather irritating in the silence of the night.Kev

The worries in her heart dissipated one by one, and for once, Larissa slept soundly.After the morning meeting, she was once again asked to stay behind by the general manager.Larissa thought he was about to tell her to leave immediately. Unexpectedly, the general manager's expression was a picture of happiness when he told her, "You don't have to leave.""But why?" Larissa hardly mirrored his joy, but she was curious, all the same, regarding the reasoning behind his words.She did not think that Travis and Amber would let her off the hook so easily. Furthermore, Mr. Fox had a much higher rank than the general manager of the Regal Dynasty Hotel. Mr. Compton should not have had the courage to ignore his demands."I've reported the entire incident to Mr. Rogers, and he said that he will take care of everything. Mr. Rogers instructed that your position should be reinstated and for you to return to work as normal.""Mr. Rogers? Kevan Rogers?" Larissa was a bit surprised.The general

Her assistant's tone was urgent as she spoke. "There's an emergency at the hotel. You need to come over and handle it in person."Reluctantly, Larissa climbed out of her bed and changed. She hadn't even gotten the time to put on her makeup before she hastily drove to the Regal Dynasty Hotel.Her assistant was waiting for her in the parking lot. As soon as she saw Larissa's car, she immediately stepped forward and opened the car door for her."What's going on?" Larissa asked before she had even stepped out of her car."One hour ago, the guest who checked into room 2510 last night, called and said that she had lost one of her gold necklaces and that she suspected that it was stolen by one of our cleaning staff. I asked the two cleaning staff who were responsible for cleaning up the room and they said that they never saw any gold necklace when they were in the room. The guest called the police and they're now upstairs, trying to make sense of the situation," the assistant explained as
