No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 119

Driven by paternal love, I wanted the amusement park to be flawless, so I reluctantly agreed to help.

Instead of being an official participant, though, I ended up as an unofficial advisor. And get this— for free. It didn't matter, though. As long as the amusement park had a grand finale, I was good. The main thing was, I had nothing else on my plate. I was free as a bird.

I headed to the hotel in the evening. As I was leaving, the door opposite was locked tight. The thought of a man moving in there soon made my skin crawl, leaving me feeling unsettled. Suddenly, an idea struck me. Why not just rent the place myself? The landlord's number was plastered right on the door. I didn't hesitate to call. But when I laid out my plan, the landlord hesitated, "Well... I've already taken a deposit from someone else. It wouldn't be right to go back on my word now."

"I'll double the deposit and return it to him, plus I'll pay more in rent," I said. Peace of mind was worth the extra cost. It's true what they say, money talks. It can buy peace of mind and make people bend their principles.

Hearing the promise of more money, the landlord quickly agreed to negotiate with the other party and get back to me.

After hanging up, I drove to the hotel, only to see Haley in the lobby. Sure, she had every right to be there, but something told me she was here for me. Sure enough, she looked up at the sound of my footsteps and called out, "Felicia." Waiting here for me—it had to be important.

"If you're here to report on work, you're barking up the wrong tree. I've stepped down," I cut her off before she could speak. Admittedly, it was a low blow, given today's resignation had her fingerprints all over it. I was still holding a grudge. I had planned to swallow my pride, considering her condition, but her showing up like this? I couldn't just let it slide.
