Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 76

“Yes, that‘s all,” Anna said seriously and looked at Miss Hazel,

The next moment, Miss Hazel‘s face darkened. She pointed at Anna and scolded, “You broke your word! How could you be so shameless? Do you think I‘ll let go of what happened yesterday?”

Hearing her shouting, a group of people gathered in the hall to see what happened.

Anna said straightforwardly, “Yesterday, when we received your complaint that there were cockroaches in your room, we immediately dealt with it and changed a room for you. And we promised to compensate you. But after the investigation, we found that the cockroaches have nothing to do with our hotel.”

Miss Hazel‘s face turned livid with anger when she heard this.

“I‘ve never seen a shameless person like you. Are all the staff in Carousel Hotel so unreasonable? The hotel has infringed my rights and interests as a consumer. I‘ll call the industrial and commercial bureau and the consumer protection bureau immediately.”

“Go ahead,” Anna said with a calm look. “Last night, I took the cockroaches in your room to the medical university nearby for a test. The test result shows that the cockroaches‘ bodies have been dried and they have been dead for at least five days. But yesterday you said that you killed them on the carpet of your room half an hour after you checked in. It‘s really strange.”

As soon as she finished her words, the crowd burst into an uproar and scolded Miss Hazel when they realized that she was a blackmailer.

Seeing this, Miss Hazel couldn‘t say a word and ran away quickly with her head down.

After this matter, the other staff members of the hotel admired Anna more, especially John. He admired Anna‘s braveness so much.

“Miss Gabriel, you are so brave that you are not afraid of those cockroaches! I was almost scared to death when I put them in the bag yesterday,” John said. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“So you still need to improve yourself in an all–around way. Now go back to work. Our next priority is to deal with the negative reviews. Come on,” Anna said with a calm look, patted John on the shoulder gently, and went back to her office.

As soon as she closed the door, she leaned against the door and breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, Anna was also afraid of cockroaches. The cockroaches made her feel sick and she didn‘t have the appetite to eat anything since she came back from the medical university. But for the sake of the reputation of the hotel, she had to bite the bullet and overcome her fear.

In the following week, the hotel still received many negative reviews.

One day, Anna checked every room in the hotel in person. After confirming that there was no problem with their sanitary conditions, she went back to her office in confusion.

Thinking about the poor performance of the hotel, she sighed with worry. The turnover of the hotel was not only far from what she had promised before but declined sharply in the past few days.

Chapter 76 This Is Murder

What the hell is going on? Who‘s secretly scheming against Carousel Hotel?

A few minutes before she got off work, Anna received a call from Frank who said that he was waiting for her at a cafe near the company

When she arrived at the cafe, she saw Frank sitting in the seat with an uneasy look.

“Drinking too much coffee is not good for sleeping so I ordered a cup of hot milk for you. If you don‘t like it, you can order something else.”

Anna shook her head and said, “It‘s okay. Milk is fine.”

Frank breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. “Anna, I was both surprised and happy when you called me.”

Anna lowered her head and stirred the milk with a spoon without looking at him. After hesitating for a while, she said, “Dad, I called you because I wanted to ask you a favor.”

“What can I do for you?” Frank asked. Anna seldom made a request to him so he was happy that he could finally do something for her.

“Six years ago, you gave me a house as a gift on my eighteenth birthday. Do you still remember that?” Anna asked.

These days, she had been thinking about moving out of Wayne‘s house. She still thought that it was not appropriate for her and Tammy to live in his house and that she should find a new place to live as soon as possible.

Then she thought of the house that Frank had given her before. After thinking it over again and again, she made up her mind and contacted Frank.

“Sure,” Frank raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a delightful smile. “The house is under your name. It belongs to you.”

“Thank you, Dad,” Anna said awkwardly.

Although she tried to talk to Frank in an intimate manner, her tone was still full of a sense of alienation as if she was not talking to her father but to an unfamiliar person.

“I didn‘t take the key with me when I left. Will you be at home this weekend? I want to go back to fetch the key,” she said.

“Whether I‘m at home or not, you can go home at any time. Tell me in advance when you go home. I‘ll ask the maids to prepare your favorite food and we can have dinner together then,” Frank said.

“Don‘t bother, Dad.”

“It‘s no bother,” Frank insisted. After hesitating for a moment, he said, “Take your daughter with you when you go home. After all, she is my granddaughter. I want to see her.”

Speaking of Tammy, Anna pursed her lips and said, “I‘d better go back alone. Tammy is still young and can‘t listen to too much gossip. When she gets older, I‘ll take her to see you.”

Frank frowned, wanting to speak but giving up on second thought.

ISTRETTA.

After leaving the cafe, Frank got into the car and couldn‘t help coughing violently.

He covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed for a long time. Then he saw blood on the handkerchief.

“Sir, are you okay?” The driver saw it from the rearview mirror and asked worriedly. Frank nodded and held the handkerchief tightly, saying, “It‘s okay. I‘m used to it. Drive me

Chapter 76 This Is Murder back home.”

In Seriel City The negotiation between Wayne and his partner didn‘t end until midnight

After returning to the hotel room, Wayne sat on the sofa for a rest. Leaning against the backrest of the sofa, he glanced at the dinner served by the waiter and suddenly remembered the food cooked by Anna.

At this time, Gabe came out of the kitchen and put a plate of fruit on the tea table. Then he said with a mixed feeling, “Mr. Wright, the people sent to South Spring Town called me just now. He said that Leo was dead.”

Wayne frowned and asked, “What happened?”

“The night before they arrived, Leo died in a fire. And very little of the house remained after the fire.” Speaking of this, Gabe sighed.

“Lewis sent me the photos of the scene. Due to the big fire, the houses nearby were also burnt. According to Lewis, the houses are vacant and no one lives in them. Therefore, it was not until early in the next morning that someone passing by found that Leo‘s house was on fire. When the firemen arrived, Leo had been dead.”

Hearing this, Wayne frowned more tightly. “What a coincidence.”

Why did Leo suddenly die just after I sent someone to investigate the surrogacy mother? It‘s so coincidental.

“You mean someone set fire to the house and killed Leo?” Gabe said surprisedly. “This is murder!

“Is that so surprising?” Wayne glanced at him and said. “There is something rather strange about his death. After we finish the work in Seriel City, you go to South Spring Town and investigate Leo‘s death thoroughly.”

Wayne wanted to investigate Leo‘s death not only because he believed that Leo‘s death must have something to do with the surrogacy mother but also because Leo was the former butler of the Wright family. Leo worked for Old Mr. Wright for many years and they were like friends. Since Leo died in suspicious circumstances, Wayne thought that he had the responsibility to figure out the cause of Leo‘s death.

“Yes, sir.” “And don‘t let Grandpa know about Leo‘s death.” “Got it,” Gabe replied.

Wayne nodded. Then he thought of another thing and asked, “Has Scott signed the contract with Enlight Media?”
