My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 141

Chapter 141 She Was Lying

"Excuse me. Are you the guests of Room 6602?"

All three of them were taken aback. The granny hurriedly said, "I... We have something emergent to deal with upstairs now. If you have something to say, come back to me later. All right?"

After finishing her words, she dragged Natalia and Anne to trot inside.

However, they were stopped by the staff again.

This time, not only the staff in the lobby but also two security guards also stood in front of them.

They all looked quite serious. The staff from the lobby gazed at the granny and said seriously, "Excuse me, Ma'am. You haven't paid for the room for two days. You said you would pay it today, so we agreed to let you and your granddaughter continue staying here. But since this morning, we have failed to contact you. If you don't pay today, I'm afraid we can't let you continue staying here."

Natalia was startled.

She turned around to look over at the granny.

The granny looked quite embarrassed.

"Well... I planned to pay today, but my wallet was lost when I was having dinner earlier. Could you give me another two days? After I've found my wallet, I'll pay for sure."

The staff heaved a sigh helplessly.

"But, Ma'am, you've already said the same thing two days ago."

The granny was silent.

Natalia had never expected to encounter such an awkward scene.

Anne walked up to tug that staff's sleeve, shaking slightly.

She raised her cute face and stared at the staff with her jade like eyes, blinking.

"Miss, have my great-grandmother and I brought you any trouble? I'm terribly sorry for that, but we truly have lost our wallet. If you don't believe it, you can ask Aunt Natalia. She is our witness."

As she spoke, Anne pointed at Natalia behind them.

Natalia was speechless.

She wondered how come suddenly she became the focus.

How should she answer?

Seeing that Natalia was a bit hesitant, the granny immediately winked at her in secret.

Natalia found it literally hilarious.

Right then, she roughly understood what happened. Without looking at the granny again, she asked the staff directly, "How much do they owe you?"

"Three days, that would be seventeen thousand six hundred and sixty-four in total."

Natalia nodded. Grandview was a high-end resort hotel, so naturally it cost a little more.

Without speaking anything, she pulled out her credit card.

"I'll pay for them!"

In embarrassment, the granny said, "Uh... I'm so sorry for bothering you."

Natalia twitched her mouth corners and didn't expose the granny's lie. She rubbed Anne's hair.

"It's alright. Just take it as a gift that I give to Anne. We are destined to meet but I haven't given her any gift yet."

Seeing that, Anna widened her bright eyes. With a delightful smile, she said, "Thank you so much, Aunt Natalia!"

The hotel staff then took over Natalia's car for the payment.

After it was done, Natalia asked the granny, "What's your plan now? Do you have any place to stay?"

The granny felt quite guilty. She wasn't so talkative as she was when they were having dinner. Shrinking backward, she stammered, "No... No, we don't."

Natalia paused a bit, feeling quite unhappy about the granny's behaviors.

It was obvious that she was lying about losing her wallet or having a trip.

The granny took Anne with her for free lunches and accommodations, and she had even chosen such a high-end hotel. Natalia could understand that someone was leading a difficult life, but the granny had gone too far...

Heaving a sigh, Natalia didn't have the heart to scold her. She bent over and carried Anne in her arms.
