HONEY, Love Me One More Time

Chapter 69: Is Mr. Mysterious Coming?

“What?” The assistant manager was dumbfounded, with his eyes wide open. Mr. Steffan glared at him and said, “You’re so reckless! Room 1231 is our boss’s room and is never open to the other guests. She lives in Room 1231. Do you know what it means? Apologise to her now! Otherwise, we’ll all be doomed. If I’m fired because of your actions, I won’t let you go!” Hearing that, the assistant manager panicked. He looked at Estelle and then at Henry, trembling with fear. “Miss, is this boy your son?” Estelle held Henry in her arms and said, “Yes. Can he stay here now?” The assistant manager gulped nervously. ‘So, this ragged little boy is the son of our boss? I was rude to him and even stopped him from coming in. I can’t believe that I treated the young master of the hotel like that. If the boss knows that... Oh, I’m dead!’ Thinking about this, he was so scared that he said with his lips trembling, “Sure. He... he can stay here. Miss, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were our boss’s girlfriend. Why didn’t you tell me you live here? I wouldn’t have treated you like this if I had known that earlier. I’m so sorry.” After a while, the pain in Estelle’s chest was alleviated a little. Then she slowly stood up from the ground with a long face and said, “Just now, I told you I was a guest here.” “But you didn’t say that you live in Room 1231...” The assistant manager said. “You didn’t give me a chance to say it,” Estelle said. The assistant manager was even more panicked when hearing it. He rubbed his hands nervously and apologised to her. “I’m sorry, Miss. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me.” “But you shouldn’t have pushed her!” Henry said as he opened his arms and stood in front of Estelle with tears on his face. “I saw you push her!” “No, I didn’t... I...” Terrified, the assistant manager stammered. Mr. Steffan was also very nervous. He quickly served Estelle a glass of water and said, “Miss, take a seat and rest. I’ll teach him a lesson later. Please don’t be angry.” Estelle waved her hand and refused him, “It’s okay. I’m fine.” Hearing that, Mr. Steffan breathed a sigh of relief. “Miss, how do you want to deal with this matter?

Do you want to fire him or something? Let me know, and I’ll do as you say immediately.” Estelle patted Henry’s back gently and said, “Henry, go to the resting area and wait for me there, will you?” “Auntie, I won’t go. I’ll stay here and protect you!” Henry stubbornly clasped her hand. “Don’t worry about me,” Estelle said. “You go to your Mom first.” Speaking of his mother, Henry was a little hesitant. Estelle gently pushed him and said, “Go ahead. I’m fine. I’ll have a talk with this man.” “All right, Auntie. If they bully you again, please tell me at once! I will come back to protect you!” Henry hesitantly leaves her. “Okay.” Estelle nodded with a smile. Henry then walked away while looking back at Estelle from time to time. After he left, the assistant manager, who had heard their conversation, asked, “Miss, the child just called you aunt. Isn’t he the son of our boss?” “Does it matter?” “No, no, no. I didn’t mean anything else. I was just asking. I promise I won’t stop him from entering the hall anymore.” Estelle nodded and said, “It’s too cold outside. He’s just a kid, and it’s not good for him if he catches a cold after staying outside for a long time. Of course, I can understand that what you did was for the hotel. You can’t let anyone in casually.” The assistant manager wiped the sweat on his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he said, “Yes. After all, our hotel is upscale, and the guests are all of high status. If they see a shabbily-dressed child running around in the hotel, they will think that our hotel is low-end and not good enough.” “No matter how high the status of the guests is, when they see a child staying outside in such cold weather, their first reaction should be to feel sorry for him rather than look down upon him.” “I see. I won’t do such a thing anymore,” The assistant manager said with his head lowered. Estelle looked around and saw Henry nestling in her mother’s arms. He seemed to be talking to his mother about what had happened just now. And his mother was

looking at Estelle worriedly. “That cleaner...” Before Estelle finished her words, the assistant manager immediately said, “Miss, I’ll give her a raise and double, no, triple her salary! What do you think?” Estelle was clear that she was not a hotel manager and didn’t have the right to decide everything, so she didn’t reply to him. At the same time, she thought of what Mr. Steffan had just said. “By the way, who is your boss?” she asked. Hearing this, both Mr. Steffan and the assistant manager were stunned. “Miss, you live in our boss’s room. How is it possible you don’t know he is? You must be kidding.” ‘But I really don’t know who he is,’ Estelle thought. She had stayed in Room 1231 for several days, but she still didn’t know the identity of Mr. Mysterious. “Does your boss live in Room 1231 all the time?” she asked. “No. Our boss rarely stays here. It’s only these days that he comes here more frequently.” “Then, did he have a girlfriend before?” Estelle asked. The assistant manager and Mr. Steffan lowered their heads in embarrassment and didn’t know how to answer her. After all, ex-girlfriend was always a sensitive topic. They didn’t dare to say anything for fear that their words would influence the relationship between their boss and his current girlfriend. At this moment, a familiar car stopped at the hotel gate. Seeing the car, Mr. Steffan said in surprise, “It’s our boss’s car. He’s back!” Estelle turned around and looked at the gate of the hotel. Then she saw the familiar black Porsche Cayenne slowly stop at the gate. ‘Is Mr. Mysterious coming?’ she wondered with an expectant look. The next moment, the car door was pushed open, and a young man exited the car. He was tall, in a silver-grey suit, and looked about thirty years old. With his back to Estelle, he was talking to the doorman.

After that, he turned around slowly and walked into the hotel. Estelle kept holding her breath nervously until she saw his face. The man was not Mr. Mysterious but the driver who had picked her up at Hudson’s House before. “Miss Hudson, glad to see you. Mr. Mysterious asked me to pick you up and drive you to a place,” The driver walked up to her and said with a smile.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
