Chapter 5 Retaliation By The Divorced Heiress
- The senior executives were therefore horrified to be discovered red-handedly chatting about their new manager. That is ridiculous! The only surviving daughter of the Thompson family is Ms. Thompson! What's going through their minds? Steven Lovett, Asher's secretary, was irate in the passenger seat. It makes no difference if you are "legitimate" or "illegitimate." The Middle Ages are behind us! Steve, why are you being so agitated? With her brilliant eyes narrowed, Bella reached out to pinch Steven's cheek. His adorable face turned immediately scarlet. "You are going to be the CEO of KS Group, Bella. Are you going to play the part? Please refrain from bothering Steve.
- Asher scowled a little. What's the issue with that? When a male supervisor makes fun of a female secretary, nobody speaks out! Bella said, "It's his honor that I touch him," with a tongue-click. With a shook head, Asher fixed a loving glance on his sister. Senior executives were all around the Thompson twins as they entered the hotel. The vice president of the hotel, Michael Gordon, continued guiding them in the direction of the VIP elevator. Bella, nevertheless, abruptly declared, "I want to see the restaurant first." As soon as Bella got into the hotel and began the inspection, she got right to the point. With anxiety, Michael accompanied the Thompson siblings to the restaurant.
- Asher let his sister take the lead by remaining composed and acting as an "invisible man." Still, there was a lot of him. Before the restaurant opened at midday, it was empty of patrons, but the servers had already started setting some items on the counter. Bella's perceptive eyes skimmed over the cuisine before she abruptly stopped at the area with the live seafood. She rolled up her sleeves, reached into a tiny aquarium with her arm, and distinguished a dead shrimp with precision among hundreds of other shrimp. "Explain." "It's not gone yet." Michael faltered. "Why not eat it if it's not dead?" Bella's ruby lips curled. "Miss Thompson, this aquarium is filled with so many shrimp.
- A few will unavoidably pass away. sporadically. "Although it's common for shrimp to perish in aquariums, do you really think it's acceptable for a customer to eat one and contract food poisoning?" Bella's smile vanished the moment she said, "This tank contains 356 shrimp in all. Looking around, I counted five dead and at least thirty half-dead. I have no idea how the $100 per person meal will go over with the visitors. However, if I were a client, I would never set foot in this motel again! Lastly, she stated, "Replace the supplier and check all the items in the seafood department right now. I'll make sure you eat them in front of me if I see another dead shrimp tomorrow.
- Michael's legs wavered from sheer terror. The other senior executives were all taken aback as well. The only people who knew Bella had a photographic memory were Asher and Steven. She even utilized her skills to assist the police in solving a significant criminal case when she was younger. For Bella, counting a few shrimp was nothing. Upon reaching the guest rooms, Bella requested a white handkerchief from Steven and used it to delicately clean the wall and picture frame. "It's not cleaned thoroughly. It needs to be redone because there is still dust on the surfaces. In private, the senior executives were grumbling about Bella. "I know you're all secretly cursing me, thinking I'm being picky and making a big deal out of nothing." Bella appeared composed, but her tone was dead serious. We've been operating our motel for a century.
- The details are what are frequently missed. We will lose our star if the star rating body conducts an inspection because of these two issues! She gave Steven a quick glance, and he quickly realized what she intended and said, "Open the door leading to this guest room. With trepidation, the head of the housekeeping department came to open the door. During earlier inspections, the boss would only be shown two sample rooms. But this new boss was capricious and didn't do things the traditional way. Bella entered the visitor's quarters. After checking out the restroom, she proceeded to the bedroom and took a seat on the bed. Her exquisite face darkened instantly.
- Still, she remained silent and concluded the examination. Next, she and her older brother walked to the general manager's office. "What are your thoughts following one inspection round?" With a smirk, Asher questioned. "It's a complete mess, ugh!" Bella leaned on the armrest of the sofa, looking listless. "Is Wyatt testing me or playing with me?" she asked with a sigh. What a terrible hotel! It's unbelievable that KS Group owns it!" Grandpa built this hotel, Bella. In the beginning, KS Group depended on this hotel to grow to the size it is today. For the three generations of our family, this hotel is an emotional location rather than a disaster. However, we have ignored the hotel's administration because KS Group is too large and the hotel industry has been experiencing a recession for the past two years.
- Asher moaned helplessly, blaming himself. I apologize, Bella. It will require more effort on your part to get it back in shape. Bella gasped as she saw the black piano in the corner. "I have someone set this piano at this location. When you were upset in the past, you used to play the piano or run a few laps around the racetrack. Asher gave a blink. "I don't think equestrian riding is a realistic choice because I think you'll be very busy in the next two months. You can perform a couple piano songs if you're exhausted. I recall that you have a great piano playing style." Many thanks, Ash. However, I haven't picked up the piano in a while. Bella's throat is constricting.
- The deep gash in her heart, which had at last healed, burned open once again. her torso. "Why?" Asher looked astonished. "While I was working with Doctors Without Borders, I unintentionally cut my hand while tending to injured soldiers in combat. My pinky is no longer as sensitive because I tore a ligament in it. I simply stopped playing the piano since I was unable to sustain an octave. Bella did her best to quietly explain. It hurt to be Asher. He took his sister's hand in an instant. "Did Justin cause you any harm?" "In a way." Bella's heart still hurt when she heard Justin's name. Still, she gave me a cheery smile.
- "For the sake of world peace, I suffered harm." My goal is to bring pride to my family! Bella reconnected with Justin, the man she had yearned for five years prior, on the battlefield on the boundary of Kridor. He was a soldier in the peacekeeping force, and she worked as a field doctor. He battled for harmony, and she nearly lost her hand attempting to rescue a critically hurt Justin. Bella considered this a huge honor back then. Her heart hurts now every time she looks at her numb pinky. But that's all in the past now. She refused to weep or feel guilty about falling in love with the wrong person. individual. Steven tapped on the door and stepped inside quickly. "Miss Bella, In response to your request, I looked into the providers of the furnishings and bedding for our hotel. The person in contact with them is Mr. Gordon, and their name is Alia Furniture.
- "Hey, it looks like it's Alia Furniture." Bella drew her eyes closer together and crossed her thin legs. "Instruct the finance department to review the hotel's financial records from the previous two years." Also, replace Alia Furniture right away by getting in touch with a fresh bedding source. "That big of a move?" Asher's eyebrows shot upward. "The brother of Justin's sweetheart founded Alia Furniture." "Oh, so it's a personal grudge, huh?" Steven and Asher both spoke at the same moment. "No! It's because Alia gave us subpar, inexpensive bedding. All I want is justice! Bella laughed hysterically. The thought of that old and uncomfortable mattress made her upset.
- A difficult stay could leave visitors with a negative perception of the hotel. It makes sense why there were so many negative internet reviews! "In addition, there's one more thing." "Mr. Asher asked me to keep an eye on the Salvador family's movements," Steven continued. I recently learned that Nigel Salvador had a stroke and was admitted to the hospital. He is currently residing in a hospital run by the KS Group. Is Grandpa in the hospital right now? Bella got up with trepidation. Asher's phone rang at this precise moment. He chuckled as he glanced at the screen. It's your ex-husband, Bella.
