Chapter 168
Emmanuel fearlessly stood his ground, arguing convincingly and emerging
victorious in the debate over his gender with Mackenzie.
However, his triumph did not grant him the respect a man deserved. Instead,
he had to run errands and arrange for their stay at a hotel outside the village.
“Sir, do you have any available rooms?” Emmanuel asked the middle–aged,
frugal–looking innkeeper.
The man glanced at Emmanuel and then at Mackenzie standing by the
entrance. He whispered, “Young man, just the two of you?”
“Yeah, that’s right.” Emmanuel nodded in confusion.
I’m here to book a room, not to partake in any illicit activities. Why does the
innkeeper need to speak in such a suggestive tone?
Though the innkeeper couldn’t see Mackenzie’s face, he couldn’t help but
notice her impeccable figure.
He discreetly swallowed his saliva before answering, “Well, young man, our
single room is priced at ninety–eight, while our double room will cost eight
hundred and eighty–eight. Both rooms need to be vacated by noon the
following day.”
Hearing that, Emmanuel was stunned. “Why is the double room so much
more expensive than the single room?”
“Well, the double room has a large round bed.”
“A large round bed justifies a tenfold increase in price?” Emmanuel furrowed
his brows. “What about the size of the room and other amenities?”
“Well, it’s the same!”
The innkeeper was perturbed by Emmanuel’s questioning. Is he really that
foolish? If he requests a double room, I’ll offer him additional services. When
the lady enters, I’ll conveniently claim that there are no more single rooms
-available. That way, he can share a room with her and indulge in the night.
“I’ll have two single rooms then!”
Emmanuel usted no time in making his decision, deterred by the significant
orice differeAY
The innkeader wondered it Emmanuel was oblivious to the opportunity to
shore a room with the attractive woman behind him at an affordable rate.
Although the innkeeper wanted to maximize his profits, he also wanted
Emmanuel to enjoy the night. Hence, he tried hinting once again. “Very well,
please present your ID. I’ll need one ID per room!”
Unfortunately, it seemed Emmanuel hadn’t grasped the hidden meaning
on booking two single rooms.
The innkeeper, who had been in the business for ten years, was completely
encountered such a situation.
