Let Me Stay The Night

As soon as those words were spoken, Victoria and Lyle looked at Christina at the same time, each harboring different thoughts in their mind.

Nathaniel is also staying in this hotel? Did I misunderstand Sebastian? Victoria was shocked.

Lyle appeared much calmer. However, his thoughts were poles apart from Victoria’s. He was adept at quickly grasping the key points in a conversation.

Upon further pondering, Lyle realized he seemed to have unintentionally discovered some significant secret.

Victoria moved to Christina’s side and asked in an undertone, “Christina, since you’ve known all along that the person staying with Sebastian in this hotel is actually Nathaniel, why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Christina gazed at Victoria calmly and uttered meaningfully, “Even if Nathaniel and Sebastian stay in the same hotel, it doesn’t explain everything. Figuring out the truth isn’t hard, either. We’ll know what exactly is happening once we go upstairs and see for ourselves.”

Victoria was yanked back to reality in less than two seconds after feeling relieved from her assumption. Anger surged within her as she turned to look at the hotel manager and snapped, “You’re taking forever to check the room number of a guest. If I were your boss, I would definitely fire you!”

The manager wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, looking somewhat hesitant.

“My friend has a bad temper. She bears no ill will despite her harsh words. Just continue with your job and do your best,” Christina said indifferently while sweeping her gaze over everyone present. “Just tell us what we want to know. If Mr. Hadley and Mr. Taggart ask later, I’ll deal with them.”

Upon hearing Christina’s reassurance, the manager abandoned all doubts, smiling more brightly and relaxedly. “Mrs. Hadley, Ms. Lesley, Mr. Hadley and Mr. Taggart are staying in room nine hundred and ninety-nine and room nine hundred and ninety-eight, respectively.”

“We’ll go up ourselves so as not to delay your work,” Christina uttered politely and strode toward the elevator.

Seeing that, Victoria hurriedly followed.

Lyle tried to tip off Sebastian but couldn’t find the right time to do it. He even had a surreal feeling that Christina was monitoring his every action.
