CHAPTER 1294
Chapter 1294 Serenity Hotel's Real Owner
A young woman in a bodycon dress, holding a hand fan, was startled by the man's sudden action. She arched her eyebrow and asked, "What's the matter, Boss? Did your opponent kill you again, or was your buff taken?"
Throughout her years working with Gail Gilmore, she had never seen him so flustered. He was always uninterested in everything and didn't even bat an eye when the Chamber of Commerce announced a meeting at Serenity Hotel.
To Gail, the game he was playing was far more exciting than watching a bunch of people pitting against each other. No one would expect that Serenity Hotel's owner had such a whimsical side.
However, Samiyah Naverro believed that Gail was just uninterested in establishing a connection with people. While the aristocratic families in Hawford were eager to please and gain favor with him, they were constantly intimidated by his presence.
Gail cut a striking figure in his clean suit, and the watch on his wrist added a touch of elegance. His bluish hair was neatly styled, complementing his handsome countenance. His captivating eyes held a depth and intensity that seemed to draw people in.
Samiyah couldn't help but feel that Gail looked exactly the same as when she first met him, though he had picked up a few hobbies favored by youngsters.
But what was important now was that Gail didn't seem quite like his usual self.
As Gail fastened the diamond button on his cuff, his lips curled into a smirk. "Neither. Didn't you hear that? The backdoor just rang,"
Samiyah was visibly surprised at his words. She had always believed that Gail kept the backdoor purely for his own amusement. After all, no one knew that the backdoor led to Serenity Hotel, nor would they dare to use it.
While Samiyah stood dumbfounded, Gail headed toward the door. However, he stopped in his tracks and turned back. "Go find out who's participating in the meeting today," he instructed Samiyah.
Frowning, Samiyah argued, "That doesn't seem appropriate, Boss."
"And what's wrong with that? By the way, there's no need to call me your boss. I'm working for someone else, just like you. Go and see who came through the backdoor," Gail urged as he gestured to the door.
Samiyah widened her eyes in shock. "Are you saying you have no idea who it was?"
"Of course I do. It's just that we share a special relationship," Gail replied as he glanced at his watch. He needed to get a handle on the situation before heading downstairs.
Meanwhile, Wynter had retrieved a ring from a hidden compartment behind the backdoor. Though the ring served as proof of her identity, it had a peculiar design and appeared shrouded in black smoke upon retrieval.
Plus, the ring seemed to be a sinister item that had been dug up from the earth. Yet, Wynter unhesitatingly slipped it on her index finger.
There was a fleeting flicker in her eyes, as if she was confirming something. Ultimately, she verified that the ring was rightfully hers.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Wynter had been recalling some lost memories since arriving at Hawford, one of which involved Serenity Hotel. Before that, she had never investigated the hotel and wondered why the proscenium stage was set at the center of the building.
Upon receiving the invitation, she noticed a familiar symbol and suspected Serenity Hotel was connected to her. Her hunch proved correct.
Wynter watched the pictures warp and shift unexpectedly, as if a hidden mechanism had been triggered. Moments later, a pathway leading to the center room was revealed beside the empty wall.
"So, this place is connected to me," Wynter exclaimed as something glinted in her eyes.
Upon her investigation of Serenity Hotel, she found that it had existed for a long time. So, how was the hotel connected to her?
