“Yeah, that’s what the manager said.”

“Hmm,” his reply was half-hearted as he made his way to the room to inspect it.

When he realized that the room was completely fine, it dawned on him that this was someone else’s doing. Someone deliberately separated him and Natalie, prohibiting them to stay together.

“Stanley, why have you gone quiet?” Noting the silence on the other side, Natalie ruffled her messy hair as she enquired.

Enraged, the grasp on Stanley’s phone grew tighter, to the point it looked as though it was about to be crushed. However, his smile barely faltered as he responded to Natalie. “Nothing much, I was just taking a look at the room.”

“What’s there to see?” Natalie asked before letting out a yawn and got down from her bed.

Stanley’s eyelids flickered as he attempted to divert the conversation away, “Nothing, hence I stopped looking. You hungry yet?”

She touched her tummy and said, “A little.”

“Then let’s go to the restaurant for dinner. I’ll wait for you at the lobby.” With that, he hung up.

Setting her phone aside, Natalie walked over to her luggage to retrieve a set of clothes. Then she slipped into her clothes before putting on some light makeup and leaving the room.

“Hi, Stanley,” Natalie called out upon reaching the elevator.
