Ice and Fire novel Chapter 840

Lawrence was on his way to JY Hotel to meet someone. He knew he still had enough time before the so-called meeting started but he preferred to be the first one to arrive to settle himself. He was in his car but his mind was somewhere else. Alas, he arrived in JY Hotel. He veered his car to the driveway and took another quick look at the rear view mirror before alighting from the car. As he stepped out of the car, he handed the key to the Valet and walked straight to the hotel main lobby door and he saw a waitress coming his way.

"Hello, sir. Good evening. Welcome to JY Hotel. How many are in your company?" the waitress greeted in high energy.

Lawrence was scanning the whole lobby. He didn't want to admit the fact that he was kind of impressed of the place. He was lost in admiration of the place and only realized after a few moments that he was asked a question. "I'm Lawrence Chu and I have a reservation for two," Lawrence replied. He remembered that Selina had booked the table under his name.

"Mr. Chu, this way please," she said politely. She immediately recognized the name. Who wouldn't? This was a Chu, one of the most distinguished families in the city. She reminded herself that she couldn't afford to displease him or else, she might lose her job.

The waitress carefully ushered Lawrence into a private room. On their way, Lawrence couldn't help but be amazed on how beautiful the place was. 'So much for a first meeting, ' he thought. When they arrived in the room, Lawrence glanced around to find a small table and two wooden stools. It occurred to him that Selina had arranged this room on purpose.

Lawrence helped himself to the table and sat down on one of the stools.

The waitress put her hand inside her pocket and took out a room card. "Mr. Lawrence, this is the room card of our president suite. It is Mrs. Selina's instruction," she said courteously, handing the card to Lawrence.

Lawrence was surprised at the gesture. He thought that the restaurant arrangement was already too much, but didn't expect that there was more. 'So Aunt even prepared a room for me. She must be really eager to see me and that girl to work it out, ' he thought to himself.

Lawrence took the card and put it on the table. "You can leave now," he demanded in a cold voice.

"When would you like us to serve the food?" the waitress asked with a diplomatic smile.

"Wait until this arrives," Lawrence replied briefly. Out of courtesy, he decided to wait for Mary before ordering the dishes.

"Okay,"

the waitress answered, turned around and politely took her leave.

Meanwhile, Mary had arrived at the hotel. As her driver parked the car, she alighted from the car. As she got out, she instructed the driver in a defiant tone, "You can leave now. Tell my parents that I am safe and they don't need to send you to pick me up tonight."

"Okay, Miss Mary," the driver answered politely.

As the car drove away, Mary started to fix herself up. She pulled her miniskirt up with her right hand, exposing more her porcelain bare thighs. This was one of her assets. Mary was one of the few members of the society who had long, alluring legs matched with her natural pretty face.

With a luxury fashion hand bag on her left hand, she confidently walked into the hotel lobby door.

"Good day, Miss Mary. Welcome to JY Hotel," one waitress greeted humbly as she came forward.
