Chapter 10 See You at Eight o’clock Tonight!
Kate and Kiki had known each other for more than half a year, and they were good friends online.
She had planned to meet him, so she agreed to his request.
Lockie couldn’t wait to ask,”Which room?”
Kate was about to tell him the room number when she suddenly thought of something,”Not tonight. My mommy is asleep. Tomorrow.”
Kiki smiled,”Boss, everyone said that you used a voice-changing device, so you sound like a little girl but in fact, you are a middle-aged man. Can you tell me whether you are a man or a woman?”
Kate grinned.”This is a secret.”
Rheinsville was a southern city, the humidity and weather were fine all year round. If the curtains of the hotel were closed, the room would be very dark and suitable for sleep.
The next day, Taylor slowly opened her eyes. It was already past one o’clock in the afternoon. Kate and Ms. Weed had lunched and she ordered a takeout.
At the entrance of the hotel.
Tina clenched her fists after she saw Richard hurry into the hotel lobby.
In the past few days, every time she called Richard, he was always very perfunctory. He only asked about Grove Pharmaceuticals company.
She had a hunch that something must have happened.
That was why she had followed Richard to this place. She didn’t expect him to come here.
Kempinski Hotels was one of the most expensive and fanciest places in Rheinsville City.
Tina quietly followed in and saw Richard walking into the bar on the first floor.
He took out a lot of cash and allotted it to several waiters. He said in a low voice,”… Do you remember it clearly? Take your cues from me!”
“Okay, Mr. Carlos.”
After they left, Richard took a deep breath and then began to edit a message:
“Ms. Williams, I hope you don’t mind. I got your number from others. I want to ask you to meet me at the bar downstairs at eight o’clock tonight.”
After sending the message, he looked up at everything in front of him with satisfaction.
He didn’t know what he did to annoy the beautiful woman last time, but she would fall in love with him tonight. After all, no woman could resist this kind of romantic pursuit.
Richard found that she had not replied. After thinking for a while, he sent a WhatsApp message to his friends:”At eight o’clock tonight, I’ll wait for you in the lobby bar at Kempinski Hotels.”
He booked the place and called his friends to give him some courage. But he did not find that he had accidentally sent this message to Tina.
The waiters were wondering about Richard’s plan after he left.
“What is Mr. Carlos going to do?”
“He’s prepared for such a big surprise. He must be proposing to his fiancee, right?”
“His fiancee is so lucky…”
Listening to their discussion, Tina was a little excited and very touched.
How could she doubt that Richard had changed his mind?
Buzz…
She looked down. It was a WhatsApp message from Richard:”I’ll wait for you at the lobby bar at Kempinski Hotels at eight o’clock tonight.”
Tina couldn’t refrain from smiling.
His tone was the same as when he asked her to go out. If she hadn’t seen this herself, she wouldn’t believe that Richard would prepare a big surprise for her.
Tina was in a good mood and walked out slowly.
When she looked up, she saw Taylor coming out to get takeout in pajamas and slippers.
Her soft hair draped behind her. Her skin was fair and her facial features were delicate.
Even though she was dressed like this, her unique temperament was still eye-catching.
Tina’s fingers tightened slightly, and she could not control the jealousy in her heart.
How could this woman have the money to live in this hotel?
She must be pretending that she can afford it.
She walked up to her,”You don’t even have clothes to wear, and you still want to live in this hotel. Taylor, are you going to seduce some rich guys here? Do you think you can seduce a man with your face?”
Taylor, who was carrying takeout with one hand and reading text messages with the other hand, was speechless.
She deleted the garbage text message sent by Richard. Then she said indifferently,”Oh, at least I have a face.”
She looked at Tina’s face.
Tina got angry at once.
Was Taylor scolding her for being shameless? Or was she hinting that she was not beautiful? Or both?
She thought of something and suddenly smiled.”Taylor, do you want to know where the kid is? If you want to know, come to meet me at the hotel bar at eight o’clock tonight.”
What’s the use of being beautiful?
Richard had abandoned her!
She wanted Taylor to see how Richard proposed to her!
After saying that, Tina turned around and left.
Looking at her back, Taylor’s face darkened.
Why was it eight o’clock at the bar again?
Well, she would see what this good sister and ex-fiance had prepared for her!
She went upstairs.
Although this presidential suite they lived in was not the best one, there was a kitchen. Kate was still growing up and could not eat takeout all the time. The food she ate every day was cooked by Ms. Weed.
At dinner time, Ms. Weed prepared three dishes and one soup. There was meat and vegetables.
Taylor had been busy all afternoon. When he sat down, she found that Kate seemed to be worried about something.
She rested her chin on her hands and sighed heavily.”Mommy, I feel so bored.”
Taylor pinched her cheek,”Sweetie, why don’t you play the game?”
“Today is the weekend.”Kate said with disdain,”All primary school students are on holiday.”
“…”
The corners of Taylor’s mouth twitched. She felt that Kate might have forgotten that she was still in kindergarten.
She picked up some food for Kate and asked,”What do you want to do? I’ll accompany you?”
“There’s no need. Mommy is busy.”Kate looked very sensible,”Can you let Ms. Weed accompany me to walk into the hotel at eight o’clock tonight?”
Taylor chuckled,”Okay.”
Although her daughter was young, she was smart. Taylor didn’t worry about her.
After dinner, the three separated at the door.
Taylor went to the bar on the first floor. After Kate confirmed that her mommy had entered the elevator, she took out her mobile phone and sent a voice message.”Kiki, I’m out! Where are you?”
Lockie quickly replied,”Boss, the coffee shop on the first floor, table 28, I’m waiting for you.”
Kate grinned.”Okay, I’ll be right there!”
