Chapter 4

When the security guard saw him hold his collar, he angrily rolled his eyes and looked at Oliver's screen.

Seeing a message indicating that 10 million dollars had been accredited into Oliver’s account as a bonus, his body shivered.

Of course, he wasn’t a fool, for a bank to give 10 million dollars as a bonus to their customer, the customer's balance wouldn’t be less than 2 billion.

"Thud!" He fell to his knees to apologize. 

"S…S… Sir, please forgive me. I was blind not to let you in but argue with you. Please don’t take this matter to your heart. I have a wife and two kids at home. If I am fired, then that is the end of my family." The security guard begged as his shoulders continued to shake from crying.

He was wise to know that since Oliver had such a huge amount in his account, he would be fired if he reported it to the manager.

Hearing the security guard’s pleading words, Oliver sighed. He didn’t take the matter to heart because even though the security looked down on him, it was still his work.

"Get up, I have no problem with you." Oliver said

"R– really?" He joyfully stood up and thanked Oliver. Oliver nodded and walked into the hotel.

On his way, he kept pressing his phone, so he failed to notice a lady approaching and mistakenly bumped into her.

Oliver was taken aback when he saw the lady he had run into. She looked delightful as she wore blue pants and a plain pink top, revealing a charming figure.

Not only was she beautiful, but her temperament showed that she was someone with a powerful background because a man who was dressed in a black suit as a bodyguard followed her.

"Hey, don’t you have eyes? How dare you bump into the young Miss?" The bodyguard who followed her yelled.

"Bump?” Oliver thought out loud.

"Didn't your young Miss also see me coming? Why didn't she avoid me? Why did she also bump into me?" Oliver questioned with a brow raised. 

"You brat, do you know who she is? Kneel down and apologize before I break your legs!"

Hearing the bodyguard’s threat to break his legs, Oliver smiled without an iota of fear on his face. 

"She’s your young Miss, not mine, so there’s no need for me to know who she is, right?" He said with a playful smile. 

Despite the fact that the lady appeared to be from a powerful family, Oliver was unconcerned. There was no way he was going to be an ass licker because of someone’s personality.

Oliver’s words enraged the bodyguard. "Gentleman, since you’re not ready to apologize to Miss Ynes, then go to hell!"

He balled his hand into a fist and attempted to punch Oliver in the face, but the young Miss' words stopped him on his track.

"Ryker, stop it!" She said with a frown.

Ryker retracted his blow upon hearing Ynes's command.

"I'm sorry, Miss Ynes, I acted rashly just now, please punish me," he apologized.

"I’ve told you several times to learn how to control your anger, you can’t be a bully because you feel you’re stronger than the other person."

Hearing Ynes' words, Oliver was moved. "It seems she’s a beauty with brains, that’s good." He murmured.

"Hello, I am Ynes Larking from Boston Hill’s Larking family and am sorry for what happened just now." Ynes apologized to Oliver.

Oliver was stunned upon hearing Ynes say she was from the Larking family. Indeed, the Larking family was one of the most powerful families in Boston Hills. He had heard rumours of the Larking family’s young mistress being a beauty and didn’t expect to meet her, especially in a situation like this.

Oliver nodded, and without wasting time, he turned around and left.

"Miss,why did you stop me from dealing with that rude soul?" Ryker asked after Oliver had left.

Ynes smiled and said, "He’s not rude, I just love his willpower."

"Despite knowing my identity, his attitude remained unchanged. This is the first time I've been impressed by a guy." She smiled with her eyes narrowed. It was obvious she had something in mind.

"Let's leave." She said and started walking towards the parking lot with her grumpy guard trailing behind her.

….

Oliver entered the hotel and walked to the reception. 

"Hello, I want to book a suite." He told the receptionist.

Seeing Oliver’s shabby garments, the lady frowned. How could someone dressed in that manner be allowed into the hotel, was it not a disgrace for their hotel?

"Sorry, there are no rooms left and all the suites are booked, so please, leave." The lady replied in an unpleasant tone.

"Rooms and suites were all booked out, was that a joke?" Oliver was surprised. There were more than 200 rooms and suites in Empire because it had a lot of visitors so he was sure the lady was lying to him.

The only reason could be that she was looking down on him.
