Jaden was flustered.

He frowned and asked, "Is this how a seven-star hotel treats its guests?"

"Guests? You looked like a beggar! How dare you consider yourself a 

The manager of Hotel California,Albert Chester, cuts in and scolds Jaden.

Turning away from Jaden,Albert Chester beckons to the doorman and slaps him in the face as soon as he is standing in front of him.

"Are you blind? Why would you let a beggar come in here? Does this place look like a beggar’s quarters?

Albert Chester squeaked and angrily kicked the doorman in the stomach.

He was livid.

The doorman was visibly scared, but he had learned not to judge others by their appearance, so he didn’t dare stop Jaden.

The manager was angry, and he slapped the doorman again. He said the doorman was fired.

"Since you fail to act like you should, then you shouldn’t stay here anymore—this is a seven-star hotel and not your charity organization. Pack up your things and leave; you're fired!"

Immediately after he gave his verdict,Albert Chester kicked the doorman and pushed him away.

After witnessing this scene,Jaden was livid. Sneeringly, he took out his phone and called Zack Connolly.

He knew the hotel in California belonged to him.

Seeing his guts,the middle-aged man laughed and immediately ordered the guards to kick him out of the building.

Two seconds later, Zach Connolly picked up and politely greeted Jaden.

"Young master Reed,you didn’t have to call me. I should have called you instead. What can I do for you?"

"What’s going on with Hotel California? Does the property still belong to the Reeds?" Jaden asked.

"Of course! Hotel California is specifically under your name, and it was your special architectural designation—is there a problem?"

Without giving a definite answer, Jaden ended the call.

However,before he could fathom the situation, a punch was thrown in his direction.

However, Jaden Reed was an expert on combat; before they could touch a hair on his body, he knocked down all guardians.

The sound of bones cracking and the screaming sound of the hefty men lying on the floor filled the hall.

The middle-aged man was scared, but he pretended not; he threatened Jaden that he would call the police.

"Don’t you dare come close to me. I won’t spare you if you hit me! I’ll make you rot behind."

As he spoke, his legs trembled and he backed away.

"You lowly beggar! Stay away from me!"

Quickly,Albert Chester dipped his hands into his pocket and pulled out his phone as he attempted to call the police.

At this time, a serious voice came from behind and shouted,

"Stop!"

He stopped the middle-aged man in his tracks.

It was the president.

When Albert Chester saw who it was, he was immediately relieved, and he ran over to hide behind him and seek protection.

The middle-aged man rushed to the president and was very respectful.

"President Connolly, I’m glad you're here. Look,this beggar was here, making a lot of trouble for us and disturbing the other guests. He won’t leave even after I asked him nicely."

"Look,he even hurt all the guards. I’m afraid he would do the same to me. Please vent my anger for me!"

Albert Chester pretentiously asked the president to punish Jaden.

The president fell silent, and Albert assumed he was thinking of a way to punish Jaden.

Because of this,he laughed,mocking Jaden as he said, "Now, it is game over for you! President Connolly won’t spare you; "your doom is here!"

But the president slapped him on the face.

Suddenly,the president pulled him back by his collar and slapped him across the face.

 Slap!
