Chapter 8

Larissa was confused by the accusation. But as she was someone who had quite some experience working here, she had met more unreasonable guests.

Therefore, she was able to react quickly and gave her an apologetic smile. “My apologies, Ms. Gallagher. There must be a misunderstanding here. I just got back, and I am not quite sure what’s going on. Could you give me some time to look into the situation?”

At the same time, her mind was racing. The Regal Dynasty was a proper hotel with an established background. It would not be possible for them to forcibly evict someone without cause. But seeing the guards and cleaning staff present, the eviction did not seem false either.

Larissa could think of no one else who had the power to evict guests other than the general manager.

She was just about to call him for clarification about the situation when the door to the room at the end of the corridor opened.

Dylan emerged in his pajamas. His was stone-faced and exuded a cold aura similar to Kevan’s. His geniality in the morning was nowhere to be seen.

Thinking that they had disturbed his rest, Larissa quickly apologized. “Forgive me, Mr. Shields. There is a situation that we need to take care of at the moment. If you find the noise bothersome, I can have someone put you up in a different room.”

However, Dylan waved her off and smiled. “Don’t worry about it.”

Larissa was totally confused once again. If it was fine, then why was he upset earlier?

Dylan walked straight up to Karin, who clearly knew him.

“M—Mr. Shields?” Her previous arrogance was gone and replaced by anxiety.

“Ms. Gallagher.” Dylan was not as nice to her as he was to Larissa. His tone was polite and indifferent. “Mr. Rogers was the one who requested your eviction. As for why…” His smile did not reach his eyes. “I’m sure you know.”
