Chapter 13 Alina Liu

Carlson placed his glass of red wine on the table then slowly leaned into the sofa. He lit up another cigarette, then continued to tell Alina's story. "This woman, she is a real beauty. Not only physically, but her character is lovely, too. She is undeniably smart, and has a great body. I could go on and on about how men fawned over her. This, coupled with the fact that she was going through issues with her family, made her want to be supported by several men simultaneously. As a result, she dated countless men. They all knew what she was going through, yet they still pursued her. And these weren't just ordinary men. No, these men were all rich and came from good families. Their net worth was over millions of dollars. How could they all be wrapped around this woman's little finger? These men were not stupid. It's just that this woman was smart enough to manipulate them."

Leena listened to him wordlessly, wearing a grave expression. However, in her mind, she wondered how such a woman could exist.

Carlson took a deep drag on his cigarette and squinted at her through the puffs of smoke. "Miss Yang, do you envy such a woman?"

"Well, she does sound like a smart woman," Leena replied carefully. "Smart enough to make men do what she wants!"

"But what if you encountered such a woman? Let's say, if your boyfriend met such a fancy woman somewhere. How are you going to deal with her?" He eyed her inquisitively, a mischievous smile playing at the corners of his lips.

Carlson's words struck a chord with Leena. All of a sudden, she found herself at a loss for words. She never really thought about it before. Rena had mentioned to her before that she shouldn't have blindly trusted Miguel. After all, they hadn't seen each other for nine years. It was only right that she had some crisis awareness. However, even with the risks involved, Leena thought love should be simple and pure. Being with him was more than enough for her. However, was she enough for him? Hearing what Carlson said made her begin to doubt. Could a woman as alluring as Alina tempt Miguel? She'd never worried about him cheating on her before, but now, she wasn't so sure.

Smiling weakly at Carlson, she shot a different question back at him. "Then, Mr. Carlson, would you be into such a woman?"

After taking another drag on his cigarette, he cleared his throat. "Of course. She's irresistible. She knows how to play men, and men in turn fall for her. Like what I said before, men like the challenge."

Leena took a sip of red wine and stared into his eyes deeply. "Then the women that you would be desperately trying to get are married women, right?" she asked playfully.

"Are you married, Miss Yang?" Carlson leaned forward, gazing at her intently.

What he really meant was obvious. She choked on her wine and was speechless for a moment. Gathering her bearings, she answered, "Actually, This woman sounds exquisite. I think I'd like to meet her one day."

She was a business woman, strategic and wise. However, she was just an innocent when it came to love. If there was really such a great woman whom Carlson referred to, she would like to meet her. She wanted to know how such a woman came to be in love and weigh what was good for herself at the same time.

However, as Leena spoke, she never thought she'd actually get to meet this legendary goddess, Alina.

On the next day, everything was bright and Leena felt motivated as she went to work. However, she was a bit surprised when a young staff came up and

told her that a group of big bosses had come to the VIP room. They tried to invite a young lady to join them, but she refused.

Although, they didn't provide sexual services here, they always needed the waitresses to serve their customers when they were drinking.

"Which waitress? There are no waitress in the Heaven Hotel who would be so rude to the customers. Even if she is popular, she wouldn't reject the customers. Not to mention, these customers are in the VIP room. Those people are considered as rich or noble."

There was a hint of worry in the staff's eyes. He said anxiously, "I don't know which director is in charge of that waitress. I have already tried my best, but I couldn't find out. Since Lewis isn't here, we are wondering if she is a newcomer The waitress is sitting at the bar table in the hall, and she appears arrogant that nobody dare to disturb her. The people in the VIP room are already losing their patience. They want her to join and entertain them."

Leena frowned. It looked like she had to do something. "Fine, I'll go see her. You go to the VIP room and comfort the customers. Tell them I'll be there soon." Leena hurriedly went to the hall to look for this woman they spoke of.

She hadn't chosen any new staff for this period, so the one in the hall couldn't be her employee. But as a director of the hotel, she felt more responsible to come up with a solution.

It wasn't hard for Leena to spot her. There she was, sitting by the bar counter with the posture of a queen addressing her subjects. Her aura alone was stunning, enough to turn heads wherever she went, Leena supposed. Her body was well defined, too, which made everyone stare. This woman was dangerously captivating, and she looked like she knew this.

Leena gulped. Psyching herself up, she walked to the woman's side. "Excuse me, Miss."

The woman turned her head slowly. She seemed to be slightly drunk, which only added to her allure. Leena had been in the hotel for a long time. She encountered beautiful ladies every day. Yet, for some reason, no one could compare to the woman she faced right now.

The beauty of a woman was not only defined by appearance, but also by her temperament and taste. The waitress was indeed beautiful, but somehow she couldn't be considered impeccable. She also had some lackings on her facial features, but her imperfections were what made her perfect. She was the type of woman who seemed to get whatever she wanted, or whoever. No one could possibly resist her charm, Leena was certain. Even now, she felt unworthy to be talking to such a lovely woman.

The woman raised her eyebrows at Leena in confusion, as though she didn't hear what Leena just said. "Are you talking to me?"

Leena smiled at her. She intended to chat with her and get to know more about her, so she sat on a high stool beside her and asked, "Miss, are you here alone?"

"Are you Director Yang?" the woman asked bluntly, as though she had no intention of wasting time. She breathed heavily and smiled at her sweetly. Leena thought the woman was totally different from the girls she handled in Heaven Hotel.

"Yes," Leena answered curtly. "It's a good thing that you know my name. What about you? What do you plan to do today?"

The woman winked at her mischievously. "If I say that I am here to watch you, will you believe me?"

Her words took Leena aback. "Miss, are you..." Her voice trailed off weakly.

"My name is Alina Liu." Leena was stunned. So, this was the legendary goddess.
