Chapter 306 To Leave Her Phone in A Cab
Chapter 306 To Leave Her Phone in A Cab
In a hurry, Charles Mu and Paul went directly to the hotel.
When they arrived at the hotel, they were stopped?at the gate by the hotel manager.
"What can I do for you, Young Master Mu?" asked the manager, wearing a wide smile on his face.
Charles Mu seemed annoyed. Xinyi Hotel wasn't a place where decent women went. What was she
doing here? 'She should have behaved herself even if she's not the real Linda Xia.
It would bring disgrace to the family if she's seen in such a place, ' thought Charles.
The manager backed off when he saw Charles's grim face. "Lady Linda is in the hotel, and we're here
to fetch her. Did you see her?" explained Paul immediately.
"May I ask what she looks like? So we can help look for her..."
Asked the manager, still putting on a fake smile.
He had been ordered to stall them off. Even though he had seen her before, he had to ask these
questions and delay them.
"You mean you don't know her?"
Paul's face fell. Everyone in the SH city should have known her.
Charles and Linda's engagement had been a significant event, several times more popular than any
movie premiere.
Paul was getting impatient. He was about to blow up at the manager, but Charles stopped him. They
had to restrain themselves at this crucial moment.
"Show him her picture, " said Charles.
A picture should be enough for the manager to recognize her!
He would like to see what the woman had been up to. Was she cheating on him?
If that was the case, he would be pleased to dispose of her as soon as possible.
Since the sisters had the same look now, Paul showed the manager Linda's picture. Paul would never
keep Lisa Xia's picture in his phone;
The only picture of a woman in his phone was Linda.
The manager didn't expect that they would actually have her picture. He was beginning to feel alarmed.
He had been ordered to stall them until further instructions came. While he was hesitating, a voice
came from his intercom, "Take them to the cafeteria on the third floor. Lady Linda is dining there."
The manager was relieved and said, "Oh, she's Lady Linda! No wonder she looked familiar. She is in
the cafeteria on the third floor. Today is the first day of our Upscale Seafood Buffet. Lady Linda must
have received our invitation and came."
Charles strode into the hotel before the manager could finish his words. He didn't take the lift, but
instead, he went straight for the stairs.
It was a five-star hotel, so the interior of the building was rather luxurious.
The cafeteria hall was exquisitely decorated with European accents.
There were not many people dining there.
It was probably because it was expensive. The price of food in a five-star hotel would not be
reasonable enough for ordinary people.
Charles glanced around
And dropped his eyes on a table at the far left side of the hall. Then, he saw Lisa, the woman with the
exact same face as Linda, eating on the table.
When Lisa rose her head, she saw Charles and sweetly smiled at him.
"Honey, why are you here?" called Lisa, with an unnecessarily loud and surprised voice.
People in the hall raised their heads from their tables.
That was her intention.
Charles's face remained tight and indifferent. He slowly walked toward her. People curiously looked at
him and whispered to each other. "Is that Charles Mu? What's he doing here?
Is he here for the buffet?"
With their eyes following him, they noticed Lisa. They soon understood that he must have been there to
fetch his fiancée.
A couple of women present showed expressions of envy toward Lisa. They heard that Charle was very
much in love with his fiancée. Every woman dreamed to be in her shoes.
Charles made no sound. He walked straight to?sit beside her and said, "Why are you eating here,
honey? Don't you like the food at home?"
Lisa hurriedly shook her head, smiled, and said, "I like the home-cooked food. It's just that I've
happened to receive an invitation from them. They said that I can enjoy a 50% discount on their
opening day, so I came to have a try. The seafood here is very fresh. You should try it!"
Although she was smiling as she spoke, Charles noticed her hand slightly trembling under the plate. It
seemed like she wasn't telling the truth.
But he kept his expression blank and said, "Well, it's fine. Finish eating your food. Let me drive you
home after you're done."
Charles hadn't gone back home for one whole week. When Lisa saw his face, mixed feelings stirred
within her. For a moment, she felt that he was still in love with her, but she also felt that he wasn't.
Nevertheless, she still hoped. She hoped that he came to the hotel out of his love for her.
Lisa was distracted and had lost her appetite. She knew that he was just acting in front of her. Earlier
before, when Adam Huo's man informed them that Charles was coming to the hotel, she felt a tingle of
fear inside of her.
If Charles had found her in Adam's room, she would have been done for. That would have been a fatal
mistake.
Even if nothing happened, It was bad enough for her to be seen in a hotel room.
What would he think of her? Would he think that she was cheating on him?
She would be unable to explain.
Adam had asked his man to take Lisa to the cafeteria. He had planned to take advantage of the launch
of the hotel cafeteria to cover for her. Since she was still of use to him, He was willing to help. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Adam was always careful with his plans. He had expected it to happen and had already planned for it.
Lisa was a stupid girl. Sometimes, he would regret choosing her as his puppet.
Now, thinking about it, Who would be stupid enough to leave her phone in a cab at such a crucial
moment?
