She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1085

Chapter 1085 Check-in Registration

Athegate was the sixth-ranked city in the national economy. As soon as they got off the train, Mr. and Mrs. Davidson were amazed by the level of prosperity that was incomparable to their hometown. The constant flow of travelers and pedestrians dressed brightly, and towering buildings could be seen everywhere, making them feel the prosperity of this city.

"Steve, should we call our children?" Eloise was more conservative and instinctively clung to her husband in unfamiliar surroundings with some respectful caution.

"Nia is the CEO of the company and is so busy that she won't have time to pick us up. Eve's health isn't good either. Didn't Eve say she's staying at Dekee Hotel when she went home last time? Let's go find her directly, settle down first, then notify Nia later." Steve was also stunned by all this prosperity but after all he was a man who wouldn't feel uneasy or fearful.

"I think we should notify them first..." Eloise still hesitated.

"We're already here. What difference does it make if we wait a little longer?" Steve smiled at his wife, "We'll see Eve later. She loves our homemade sticky rice sausage while Nia loves sticky rice pudding. We'll give them these things as a surprise."

"Okay." When it came to surprises, Eloise couldn't resist anymore. She agreed, and so they took a taxi heading to Dekee Hotel. They sat back comfortably in their seats. However, the driver clearly had something on his mind. He secretly glanced at this simple couple through his rearview mirror, and had noticed how carefully they were handling their luggage. After thinking for half a moment, he decided to test them.

"You just arrived in Athegate, right?"

"Yes, we're here visiting family." Steve liked talking with people, and felt proud when he thought about how his eldest daughter could stand on her own in this city with her own company. Therefore, his words carried some prideful tone.

"Visiting family? Why don't you go home then?" The driver asked again.

"We're going to stay at a hotel first," Eloise felt that the driver was friendly too so she answered him too.

The driver's eyes flickered for a moment before hesitating. Although what he wanted to say wasn't polite, it seemed like not saying anything would make him uncomfortable. So he simply asked,

"Why did you choose Dekee Hotel?"

"What? Is there something wrong with Dekee Hotel?" Steve seemed like he heard something strange.

"No problem, but... don't be upset when I say this. That place is not affordable for ordinary people like us. If you stay there overnight, a regular room costs over 2, 000 dollars per night and the more expensive ones can cost tens of thousands. I'm afraid you might have been fooled by some travel promotion," the driver said.

"What?!" Eloise exclaimed in surprise. Was Dekee Hotel really that expensive? She and her husband only made a combined salary of 6, 000 dollars per month. Could they really afford to spend 2, 000 on just one night at a hotel? When she first heard the name of the hotel, she thought it was just an ordinary one.

"Mr. Driver, are you sure?" she asked with a frown.

She remembered her daughter saying that she lived there!

"I've been in this business for decades and I know every street and alley in Athegate. How could I be unsure? Maybe you should go back home or let me take you to a more suitable hotel," the driver kindly suggested.
