President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free novel Chapter 76

“I don’t think so.” Hayden gaped at the internet celebrity’s face and said, “Ms. Harriet, what do you think we have forgotten about?”

“You are really planning to shove it to the back of your mind?” The internet celebrity immediately came back to her senses as she pointed at Hayden’s face and launched into a parade, “You are too shameless. Are you planning to leave that incident from last night as it is?”

A crowd soon gathered around them in the lobby.

Hayden didn’t beat around the bushes as she said directly, “Ms. Harriet, you told us that there were cockroaches in your room last night, and we had resolved that problem for you the moment we learnt of it. We gave you a change of room and promised you that if your claim was true, the hotel would definitely compensate you. However, we are of the opinion that those cockroaches have nothing to do with the hotel.”

Upon hearing that, the internet celebrity was so enraged that her face was completely flushed with colours, “I have seen many people who are shameless, but the ST Hotel is really one of a kind. Are you trying to bully me just with your prestige and reputation? Just wait and see, I am going to call the Bureau of Commerce and the Health Department now.”

“You can go ahead.” Hayden replied with an unwavering expression on her face.

“The cockroaches that had appeared in your room had been taken by me to the medical university for examination. Based on the result, it has been five days since those cockroaches were dead. Their bodies were completely dried up, yet you told us you had killed them by swatting them on the carpet half an hour after you checked in. I think there is something wrong with that.”

When Hayden finished her sentence, sounds of gasping broke out all around them.

What she had described was same as throwing in an insect into the plates after finishing a meal in a restaurant in order to defame them.

This internet celebrity was here to extort ransom money out of the hotel.

When the onlookers all criticized the internet celebrity for her antics, she couldn’t find any words to respond. She could only flee the scene with her head lowered.

As this matter died down, everyone in the hotel held high praises towards Hayden.

This was especially true for Jeff. He was completely won over by Hayden because of those two cockroaches.

“Ms. Downey, I never imagined you taking those scary creatures and have them analysed. It took me half of my life force just to seal them in a plastic bag.”

“That means you need to accumulate more experience. Now, we need to resolve the matter about the bad comments directed at the hotel.”

Hayden patted Jeff’s shoulders casually before marching into her office. After shutting the door behind her, she leaned on the door while letting out a sigh of relief.

In reality, because of those damned cockroaches, she had been so disgusted that she couldn’t even swallow a sip of water. She fared even worse than Jeff in this department. She was just trying to keep her face in front of her employees.

In the coming week, the bad comments incident surrounding the hotel still couldn’t be resolved.

Hayden had personally inspected every room in the hotel and made sure that there was nothing faulty about anything. As she returned to her office with her head besieged by confusion, she took a look at the business volume she had achieved up to that point, which was still a far cry from the bet she had taken a while ago. Seeing that things were getting worse, she couldn’t help sighing profusely.

There must be something wrong with the hotel. Had the ST Hotel offended any party? Was someone setting this up to tarnish the name of the hotel?

A few minutes before getting off work, Hayden received a call by his father. They were to meet in a café nearby the company.

When she reached, Bentley was already there, and he was looking a little anxious.

“I have ordered some hot milk for you. It’s not good to consume too much coffee at night since your sleep quality will be affected. If you don’t like this, you can order something else.”

Hayden shook her head, “It’s alright, anything is fine.”

Bentley revealed a relieved smile, “Hayden, I am really surprised but glad that you have called me.”

Hayden was looking at her cup of hot milk as she stirred the contents for some time. She didn’t dare to look at her father in her eyes, and after some deliberation, she began, “Dad, the reason I have asked you to meet up is to ask a favour from you.”

“What can I help you with? Just say it.”

Hayden rarely asked for anything from him, so when he heard that she was asking him a favour, he was actually contented.

“Six years ago, when I had my eighteen-year-old birthday, you have promised to give me a house. Do you remember that? Is this promise still valid even until now?”
