Chapter 2 Miguel's Return (Part Two)
Chapter 2 Miguel's Return (Part Two)
When Leena passed by a private room, two hands stretched out from the door and dragged her inside.
She struggled at first, but when her hand pushed against his well-defined chest, she immediately knew
who he was. "Mr. Carlson, please don't surprise me like that. I honestly thought someone was trying to
hurt me!"
Carlson smiled. The man was in his thirties. However, his handsome face could beg to differ. "How can
I hurt you, Miss Leena? All I want is to love you."
Leena knew for a fact that a dissolute customer like him loved to flirt with the staff. She wasn't a
waitress, but she knew how to respond. "Are you going to take care of me, Mr. Carlson?"
He hugged her with one hand while his other one rubbed against her ruby red lips. "Of course I will.
How about being my girlfriend? I swear I'll love you for the rest of my life."
'Yeah right.' Leena pushed him away skillfully. "I'll call Miss Lin right now and ask her to accompany
you. Do remember to come to our hotel whenever you need to check yourself in." She was about to call
his girlfriend then.
Carlson had already taken his girlfriend to the hotel before. From the numerous times he went here,
Leena already memorized the girl's number.
"Do you have to push me like this? Isn't it good to be my girlfriend?" he insisted.
"Don't you already have a girlfriend? Let's cut to the chase, Mr. Carlson. A group of VIPs are coming
today, and I have to wait for them. Good bye."
After grumbling to himself, he finally let her go.
Leena scowled once she finally stomped out of the private room. The man was a disloyal bastard, that
was for sure!
Their hotel was five-star! Normally, guests were polite and not as licentious as Carlson was. She
wouldn't dare blacklist him, given his familiarity with Simon. He was also one of the three major
shareholders of the Empire Group. Even Simon had to be respectful to him.
All she could do was comfort herself. However, she didn't expect that it was impossible for Carlson to
just simply 'flirt' with her. In fact, he had already fallen in love with her a long time ago.
Carlson stood in the private room, crossing his arms. "Are you playing hard to get?" he mused. "Don't
be so naive."
Leena summoned the staff for a morning meeting and organized their schedule. However, since the
group of distinguished guests came so early, she had asked the staff to go and welcome them.
After dinner, they booked a room and went out for a night of fun. After that, they checked in the hotel's
KTV bar to sing.
Leena couldn't understand why they were so fond of singing. She had already planned to go home, but
today, another supervisor took a day off. Lewis Liu assigned her to the group, so she had to work
overtime.
In the middle of a song, they were already causing an upstart. The waiters, being intimidated by the Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
rowdy group, called in Leena to settle it down.
Mr. Lu, one of the guests who knew her well, walked out of the room where she was about to go in. "I'm
telling you, you don't have to worry about them. Just keep an eye for the one in the middle. As long as
he speaks, no one's going to say a word. Address him as Mr. Miguel."
The man was tall. He looked as if he was around his mid-twenties. However, his presence was made
known to all of them. Even as he sat there, he stood out from the rest.
"He heard that there is a competent supervisor here and how she isn't afraid of any trouble makers. He
wants to meet her." Leena smiled.
"I'm here, Mr. Miguel." She strutted into the room.
'Clap!'
The second the "Mr. Miguel" raised his head and glanced at Leena, time seemed to stop. His smile was
so charming that it stunned her and all the waitresses.
It was said that these gangsters were from rich families, but nobody had seen such a handsome one
among the group before.
The moment she laid her eyes on him, her mind immediately flashed back to all the memories that she
struggled to keep hidden. The military compound, the next door neighbor, her childhood playmate – all
of the memories came rushing in. 'Miguel!' She had wanted to say, but she didn't cry out. Instead, she
gazed at him.
He used to be the one she cherished the most. How could she forget him? Leena didn't know whether
Miguel reciprocated her feelings or not, but their relationship was destined to fail because of her father
and her need to move houses.
For a moment, Miguel's gaze rested on Leena. Although they had grown up, she still recognized him.
Pretending to be calm, she let a smile slip into her lips. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Miguel. I'm the director of
this hotel. You can call me Miss Yang." "Your surname's Yang?"
he asked. The smile on her face froze,
as she stared at him intently.
All of a sudden, Miguel patted the seat next to him. As soon as she came over, he stretched his hand to
hold her face, bringing it close to him. "I feel like I know you from somewhere."
