The Woman From Hell

We arrived at our hotel. The environment was pretty nice, and we could catch the fragrance of flowers the moment we entered the door. This made me feel physically and mentally happier. Fortunately, Harriet was not staying here.

My mood was even better when I thought of this.

We went to the front desk. Theo had gotten Keith to book three suites. It looked like we would be able to save a lot of money now.

I narrowed my eyes and looked at him. "Thank you, President Grant, for taking the bill."

"Would you like to instead, President Lane?"

I did not expect him to say that. I was stunned for a moment before waving my hands in a modest gesture. "I'll leave it to you, President Grant. It'll give you a chance to perform."

Theo gave me a small smile and then asked Keith to continue with the process.

We were all staying on the fifth floor. I took the key card while we were in the elevator. "I'll room with Shannon so that I won't bother your work, President Grant."

Hearing this, Theo's expression darkened as he looked at me with melancholy in his eyes. "A husband and wife not staying in the same room, do you want people to think that we don't get along?"

"Of course not. I've always attached more importance to friendships. I don't want people to think that I value romantic partners over friends."

We reached the fifth floor, and the three rooms were practically in a row.

Shannon glanced at me and pulled me back. "You should stay with President Grant. I can't bear his gaze."
