I looked at him and felt angry suddenly. I got out of the car and went straight into the hotel.

He came to my side and looked at the receptionist. “There’s no need for another room. I’ve booked a room for us.”

Apparently, his words were directed at me.

The receptionist smiled awkwardly and handed my cards back to me. “Miss, here are your cards.”
