The Ex-Wife He Can’t Have novel Chapter 264

"If I say you're not going in, you are not going in!"

Spitting out the threat, Sienna spun on her heel and stormed off.

The staff, instantly sensing the volatile hostility, hurried over to usher Judith into the private rooms to de-escalate the situation.

But Sienna was far from finished. She retreated to a quiet corner and pulled out her phone.

The person on the other end sounded incredibly reluctant.

"Ms. Sterling, we're in the hospitality business. Peace brings profit. If word gets out that we arbitrarily turn away paying guests, it could destroy the spa's reputation..."

"She's a literal nobody. Are you telling me you're desperate for her spare change?"

Sienna's tone turned ruthlessly domineering. "It's simple. You can keep her as a guest, or you can keep me. Make your choice. I won't force you."

Weighing the financial reality, the manager quickly caved. "Please rest assured, Ms. Sterling. We will handle it to your complete satisfaction."

Meanwhile, Judith had just reached the check-in desk when an employee abruptly blocked her path.

"I am so sorry, ma'am, but our system just experienced a sudden glitch, and we cannot verify your VIP card. How about we issue a full refund for your membership and waive your past charges?"

Judith stared at them in sheer disbelief.

High-end luxury spas rarely suffered system failures, and they never relied solely on physical cards. Every member's phone number and ID were securely logged in the database.

"Just search my daughter's phone number in the system. There's no way it's not there."

The receptionist grimaced, clearly terrified to comply.

It wasn't a glitch at all—management had explicitly ordered them to permanently blacklist her.

A supervisor quickly stepped in to run interference, offering a painfully rehearsed smile. "My deepest apologies, ma'am. The system is undergoing an extended update, so we cannot verify any data. Furthermore, we are completely fully booked today. There are no available treatment rooms."

"I made an appointment well in advance," Judith stated firmly.
