One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 71 Conceal and Strike

“You’ve had that arranged too?” Courtney appeared stumped when she heard that. “Where will we stay? A hotel?” I’d like to head directly to the hotel if possible. After all, hotels have staff accommodation, and the facilities there are convenient too.

“Forget about hotels.” Alexander burst her bubble straight away. “There are no rooms left.”

“Huh? There are no rooms left? But the last time I counted, there should be still—”

You are in charge of breakfast and dinner during weekdays, and you’ll have to prepare three meals during the weekends. Jordan only enjoys the food you cook.”

His demands were fair, and so Courtney couldn’t fault him at all.

Even the official cook in Alexander’s house has her meals and accommodation included apart from her monthly wage. I’m just required to cook in exchange for accommodation, so I’m not truly taking advantage of the situation.
