He saw the inn owner was standing outside, looking awkward and troubled.
Behind him were a man and a lady. The man was in his thirties with a well-built figure. It was obvious he trained
regularly, and he looked proud and arrogant.
It was Winston Long, the head of security at Dragon Tech.
The lady was Shanice Clenton, the 25-year-old president of a telecommunication company in Mid Sky City. At that
moment, Shanice was in a black cheongsam which showed off her exquisite figure, making her look incredibly sexy.
Darryl could not help but take a few more glances at Shanice as his mind was a little numb.
‘What is going on? Why is the inn owner here with a man and a lady in the middle of the night?’ he wondered.
At that moment, the inn owner walked closer to Darryl and said awkwardly, “Mister, the two guests behind me
needed a deluxe room for their business meetings. Do you mind leaving this room and I’ll arrange another room for
you? What do you think?”
The inn owner’s face looked apologetic as he spoke.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHonestly, the inn owner did not wish to bother Darryl, but with Shanice and Winston beside him, he did not want to
find trouble with them.
When he heard that, Darryl furrowed his brow but smiled immediately as he said to the inn owner, “I’m fine staying
in this room, and I don’t plan to change; I’m sorry.”
He sounded peaceful, but his tone was firm.
The inn only had two deluxe rooms, which Darryl and Gonggong occupied. The truth was, Darryl did not have any
specific requirements for his accommodation, and he would have agreed under normal circumstances. However,
that trip to Mid Sky City was important for visiting the Dokko family to discuss the Chaotic Mountain Range. He could
not afford any delays.
Most importantly, Darryl was urgently waiting for Tanya to find him, and he did not have the mind to entertain such
a petty matter of room changing.
The inn owner smiled bitterly when he saw Darryl had rejected him.
At that moment, Shanice walked forward and checked Darryl out.
“Hey! By the looks of you, you probably spent your fortune to stay a night at such a deluxe room. What about this,
I’ll pay you double the room price if you move out of this deluxe room now,” she said arrogantly.
In her eyes, Darryl, who was dressed so poorly, must just be a poor villager.
Shanice’s telecommunication company had just started. In order to speed up its development, she wanted to
collaborate with Dragon Tech for a while now. However, she had been rejected multiple times. Shanice found
Winston through some connections.
Winston was the head of security at Dragon Tech. Shanice firmly believed that with Winston’s help, she would be
able to be connected with Dragon Tech. However, due to such assistance involving work ethics, she did not want to
let too many people know about it. As such, Shanice and Winston had agreed to meet at that inn at night to discuss
it in detail.
In the end, they came to realize both the deluxe rooms had already been booked.
Shanice and Winston chose that inn for their discussion because it was located the furthest away from Dragon Tech,
so they would not be easily seen together. As the head of security, Winston was discussing office matters with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmoutsiders, and that was against the company’s regulation. He would be fired if he was discovered.
Shanice was arrogant and did not want an ordinary room for their discussion. As such, after she spoke to the inn
owner, she decided to ask Darryl to give up the room.
Since Gonggong occupied the other deluxe room and was resting, Shanice did not want to interrupt her as
Gonggong was a woman, which would be inconvenient. That is why she went to look for Darryl.
‘Double the price of the room?’ Darry thought, stunned.
He smiled and looked at Shanice. “Miss, I’m sorry, but I’m not short of money, and I will not move out of this room.
If you really need a room, you can go to another inn!”
‘I am the Westrington Emperor, and Elysium Gate Sect Master; would I be short of money?’ he thought.
“You!” Shanice bit her lips and was not happy.
‘I offered him double the room price yet this poor guy rejected it?’ she thought.
The next second, Shanice looked Darryl up and down and recalled something. “I remember now, you were the one
arguing with the second Young Master of the Dokko family earlier on the streets in the evening, right? You claim to
be the Elysium Gate Sect Master, Darryl? You didn’t run away after causing trouble with the Dokko family, and you
dare to remain at Mid Sky City?”
