“Ha! Quintus' private number? You sound even more ridiculous now!” Evelyn was not convinced.
“Ha! Quintus' private number? You sound even more ridiculous now!” Evelyn was not convinced.
“Why don't you believe me? Fine! I will prove it!” Seeing that neither Marilyn nor Evelyn believed him, Harold had no choice but to go to the extremes. I need to do something drastic. There are people around, and it is getting embarrassing.
Harold could actually enter the hotel with his rose gold card, but he had already told Marilyn he would get Quintus to welcome them. Hence, he was determined to make that happen.
As soon as he finished his sentence, he took a couple of steps backward and shouted for Quintus.
“Quintus! Get your *ss down here!”
Harold was so loud that he sounded like he was shouting through a microphone.
Marilyn, Evelyn, and the staff were stunned by Harold's action.
At the same time, the people in the area were shooting Harold strange looks.
By the time Marilyn and Evelyn had regained their senses, they immediately went pale.
Utter embarrassment washed over them, prompting them to wish for the ground to swallow them up.
“Marilyn, you can mess around with him all you want! I am leaving!” Evelyn turned around and walked off because she could not endure the odd looks the passersby were giving her, and she was afraid that Harold would further embarrass her. I do not want to attend Mr. Campbell's welcoming banquet anymore, nor do I even want to know what is on the sixty-sixth floor!
“Evelyn... Hey...” Marilyn wanted to stop her sister, but Harold was still rooted to the spot, leaving her in a difficult position.
Less than two minutes later, Marilyn managed to hail a taxi to get them out of there. “Harold, it is time to go. We do not have to get in anymore, and I do not blame you for it. Please stop fooling around. You are embarrassing me!”
With that, Marilyn wanted to pull Harold away to save him from the embarrassment.
“Brat, this is Paradise Hotel. This is not a place you can come and fool around as you wish. How dare you shout Mr. Langdon's name? Are you sick of living?” The staff snapped back to their senses, stopped checking the other guests' invitation cards, and surrounded Harold. How dare he shout Mr. Langdon's name out loud? That is so disrespectful. We ought to teach this brat a lesson. Otherwise, everyone is going to start coming here and doing the same thing he did. That would be humiliating for Mr. Langdon.
“I am terribly sorry, guys! He did not do it on purpose. I apologize on his behalf!” Marilyn panicked when she saw the staff had Harold surrounded. I know how strong Harold is. Heck, he kicked the gate of the Schmidt residence down and sent the Jackson family's bodyguards flying with a kick. However, this is Paradise Hotel. No matter how strong he is, he cannot possibly go against the people associated with Paradise Hotel. What he said earlier had already offended the influential man of the underground forces, Quintus.
The staffs were not satisfied with Marilyn's apology, and they roared, “Hmph! Do you think an apology will suffice? What do you take Mr. Langdon for?”
With that, they went up to Harold and held his collar.
Harold did not bother stopping them or resisting because he saw Quintus running out of the hotel.
Quintus, who had just rushed out of Paradise Hotel, saw the staff grabbing Harold by the collar. His knees had already gone weak due to diarrhea he had been suffering from since the morning. When he saw what the staff were doing, his face went pale, and he instantly shouted at the top of his lungs, “Stop! Have you guys grown nerves of steel overnight?”
The staff heard Quintus' voice and immediately turned around in fear.
There, they saw Quintus running toward them fearfully with his weak knees.
When Quintus was still in the restroom, he heard Harold's voice, and he knew Harold had arrived. Knowing that he had missed Harold's phone call because he did not have his phone with him, Quintus immediately pulled his pants up and ran out of the hotel.
Slap!
Slap!
The moment Quintus arrived at the entrance, he slapped the staff hard across their faces.
“Mr. Langdon!”
The staff's faces were swollen, but they greeted Quintus respectfully instead of saying anything in retaliation.
“Are you two blind? This is my boss, Mr. Campbell! In other words, he is everyone's boss! How dare you guys lay your hands on Mr. Campbell? Do you have a death wish?” Quintus thundered before looking at Harold anxiously.
Indeed, Harold could have killed those two members of the staff easily if they were to have crossed him.
