9 A Morning Call 

The annoying sound of the phone ringtone shook the spacious hotel room with its loud and repetitive melody. The man stretched his hand out in an attempt. to find his phone but instead found the wet tongue of a sleeping dog.

“Ew, for God’s sake! Can you at least close your mouth 

when you’re sleeping? You’ve drooled all over the 

bed!” 

Wiping his hand over the white blanket, the man sighed in annoyance and finally found his phone which continued to assault his ears with its annoying default melody. He checked the caller’s name, cleared his 

throat with a series of short coughs, and answered the 

call, 

“What?” 

“Rude! Good morning, Mr. Bennett, this is your personal assistant Austin Hall if you have already 

managed to forget. You have to wake up at six o’clock every morning to take the dog out for a walk as per Mr. Oscar Bennett’s instructions.”

The man rustled his hand through his soft black hair and groaned miserably while his assistant continued, “Come on, Liam, chop chop! You know that your grandfather has a tracking app on your phone, he will find out if you skip even one day!” 

“Ugh!” Liam looked at the puppy who was now sleeping with his belly up, his pink tongue still sticking out as if he were dead. “Why do I have to babysit you anyway?!” 

Austin sighed, “If you listened to me and went straight back to your family house, you wouldn’t have to take care of him, you know.” 

Liam frowned, “And who is going to take care of him there? The renovations are still not done and if 

Grandpa finds out that I let his precious mutt breathe the construction dust, he will disown me right away.” 

“Anyway,” his assistant added in a chipper voice, “My job here is done. Now get ready and take the dog for a walk. I’ll pick you up for breakfast at eight. Bye!” 

Austin hung up before his boss could retort again. Liam poked the puppy with his finger but the dog paid absolutely no attention to his effort to wake him up.

With another long sigh, the man left the bed, then walked up to the tall window that offered him the view of the city, and looked to his right, his lips curling into a light smile. 

‘I wonder when she will be back to her suite again.‘”

“I guess it’s official now. Richard is sleeping with her.” 

Amelie placed the coffee cup back on the table and continued, “One of the maids saw her going to his bedroom last night, and as far as I’m concerned, she hasn’t left yet.” 

Elizabeth almost threw her dessert fork on the table; she was two times angrier on her best friend’s behalf. 

“I still can’t believe he had the nerve to bring her to the house! What a scumbag! They are friends and she has nowhere to go? Bullshit! He knows you have no say in it because the mansion belongs to him and he did not hesitate to use that! Jerk!” 

Amelie smiled subtly at her friend. Meeting her today was a smart decision. She had returned to the mansion because she missed her bedroom and study but once she heard about that woman entering

Richard’s bedroom Amelie felt like dying. 

Thankfully, Elizabeth always could find time to be her shoulder to cry on. 

“Damn, that little bitch chose the worst timing!” Lizzy continued angrily, “Right before the benefit, it’s like she had it all planned!” 

Lizzy’s raging protectiveness made Amelie’s smile even 

wider. 

“I can only hope the media will stay out of it until the benefit is over. I don’t want people’s attention to be focused on the wrong things.” 

Elizabeth could only sigh. She admired her friend’s devotion to her charitable work and was amazed by her ability to remain composed even during such stressful times. She, however, was still bothered by 

this. 

“You know… imagine if she was the second wife and you both were forced to make a joint donation for the benefit… Ugh, what an irritating thought!” 

Elizabeth’s words made Amelie freeze before she could 

grab her cup of coffee again

deed a legitimate tradition; she had 

d it before too. During large charity events, all 

ves of one wealthy and influential man had a tradition of submitting a shared donation to the 

charity of their choice to show the rest of the society that they could even overcome rivalry when it came to doing something significant for a greater cause.
