It's a violation of the employee's code of conduct!
She was wearing the hotel employee uniform and she dared throw her shoe towards the customer. The front desk manager glared at the woman standing confidently after hurting one of their customer. She seems to have no remorse of what she did. What is she possibly thinking?
"Who did that?!" the middle-age man uttered in contempt. He was looking everywhere when he spotted a smirking woman.
"You!" he was aggravated.
"Sorry, I slipped!" she was taunting him. the man's wife also glanced at her and beamed sending a thank you gesture.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.
"How dare you? I'm going to file a suit against the managemen! I'm going to sue you, woman!" the man was so mad that the manager and employees were trembling in fear.
The manager instantly called for an ambulance and after a few minutes, it arrives.
"Ah, yeah, why don't you try to sue the CEO. I will support you on that." she said annoyingly.
"You!"
"Sir, the ambulance had arrived, please allow us to send you to the hospital first. We will talk about this as soon as you're okay." the manager pleaded. Now the man wanted to kill these two women in front of him. his stress level has risen and so he decided to heed the manager's plea.
"You two. You just wait, I'll get back on you!"
As soon as the ambulance drove off, the middle-age woman sighed a relief, even the employees. they were thankful enough that it had ended. But looks like they're be in trouble knowing that one of the employee had violated their code of ethics.
Alex knew that what she did will be reported to the higher ups and that it will aggravate her situation even more. now she's thinking as to why she suddenly hit the man.
The woman seems to have read her thoughts and so she walks towards the woman.
"I haven't say thank you yet." she smiled at her. "But I think you're in big trouble, miss."
"It's okay, it's my last day anyway." she chuckled.
The woman was thinking for a while then stared at the woman who helped her once again.
"Miss, may I know your name?"
"Alex. Alex Miran." She innocently smiled.
"Ah, nice name." she smiled. "Nice meeting you. I'm Charlotte and that bastard was my ex-husband."
"I'm sorry about what happen to him." she guiltily uttered.
"It's okay. it serves him right anyway." then they both chuckled.
After a few conversations, Charlotte invited her at the hotel's coffee shop which she originally refused. But since the woman was persistent, she agreed at the end.
"Really?" Charlotte couldn't believe that the manager terminated her because she was late for a few minutes. She was thinking that since it concerns her child, they should excuse her just once.
"I don't think that's reasonable. The hotel needs employees like you so don't worry, I will talk to the owner personally and will put on some good words for you." she smiled.
"I don't think it will help. The order for my termination came from him directly." Alex nonchalantly replied.
"Seriously?" she couldn't believe it. "Did you hear it yourself? did you hear him say that?"
"No. my manager told me."
To her surprise, Charlotte laughed mockingly. Is she possibly laughing at her current state? She raised her brow.
"I think they have misunderstood him." she finally uttered. "The owner was a family friend and I had known him for a few years now. he might be a cold-heartless man as other people think he is, but I guarantee you it's the other way around."
"You personally know the young CEO?" she bit her lip. She was also thinking if she had uttered some foul words while they were having their conversation.
"Ehm, yes." she grinned. "he's not the kind of person to just terminate an employee because of such basic reason. Maybe your manager had misunderstood him."
"Eh, I don't know. but miss Sheila told me that if I want to keep my job then I must talk to him directly." She sighed. "But once he discovers what I did to your ex-husband then I'll be doomed especially that I have insulted a VIP customer." She chuckled cynically.
The woman stared at her for a couple of minutes now. she seems to be thinking of something, not sure what but she looks serious.
"Don't worry, I'll help you out. I'll talk to him and will make a way for you to meet him." she grinned.
After a careful thought, she smiled at the woman and nodded. "Please do. I really need to keep this job for now."

"What is meant to be will always be. Fate will cause it to happen until everything comes to pass. It might have been obstructed by the dark forces but it will always find its way back to where it really belongs." the old woman uttered. "Young man, something is about to happen in your life, so brace yourself for the twist of fate."
As soon as she was done uttering some strange words, the woman set off. as for Ethan, he was left in daze. what was that?
He had just closed a good deal with an investor when he thought of dropping to the near church first. After a few minutes of sitting in an empty chair, he rose up and was about to leave the place but he was a bit stunned when he saw an old woman staring at him. guess she was watching him for a long time.
Then all at once, she uttered those strange words and left. what is she? A messenger? Ethan shrugged his thoughts off. he couldn't even process what had just transpired. he was about to leave the church when his phone rings.
"What's up?" he answered when he saw the caller id.
"Ethan, where are you? I have something to tell you!" he heard a woman who seems to be in a rush.
"What is it again, Charlotte? If it is the same as last time, then forget about it. I'm not interested." He nonchalantly uttered while walking to his car. Last time, charlotte set up a blind date for him but it didn't work. not because the woman was not good enough, but Ethan didn't show up.
"No, it's not that. I need to discuss something to you. also, I think you need to come back to the hotel as soon as possible since my ex-husband is threatening to sue you."
"What? that bastard is there?" he raised his brow in annoyance. "Don't do any stupid things, I'll be there in a few minutes."
The woman was supposed to say something but he had already hung up.
"His coming!" Charlotte beamed as she glanced at the nervous woman who was sitting at the table beside the pool. Alex was not sure either as to why she suddenly felt some chill coursing her body. it was way unnatural for her.
In order for Alex to entertain herself, she started looking around. this luxurious hotel is too beautiful to behold. A dining table beside the clear beautiful pools was way too romantic. If a man proposed to a woman at this place, then he'll surely get a lovely answer.
Ah. She stood up and looked at the remarkable view. This place is simply beautiful! Mira will love it here once she gets a full view of the majestic scene. The shore was too mesmerizing and inviting. She couldn't control her urge so she brought her phone out and started to record a video of it. she will show it to her daughter later when she gets home.
"Sorry, I had to drop by somewhere before coming here. How are you, Charlotte? I heard what happen earlier." She heard an alluring voice echoed from behind. The man was speaking with Charlotte but her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Then she started to feel a chill coursing through her spine. What's happening? Is it that cold? Why is she shivering.
The man noticed the woman standing behind Charlotte. He could only see her back but he was sure that the woman was an employee at the hotel. he raised his brow. why is this employee loitering around?
Charlotte must have noticed the indifference in his face so she tried to intervene before the man even speaks a word.
"By the way Ethan, I want you to meet Alex Miran, my savior." She smiled and touch the woman's arm cueing her to face them and introduce herself.
However, the woman jerked when she heard the name. Ethan? Her heart was beating so fast that she couldn't even move her body. her mind was in frenzy. Could it be just a coincidence?
"Alex?" Charlotte tried to tap the freezing woman.
Slowly, Alex turned around and kowtowed. "Hi, my name is Alex. Pleased to meet you, sir."
Ethan creased his brow even more. why is this woman acting strange? Why is she shaking? Was he that scary? Is he a monster? he was a bit annoyed.
The woman slowly raised her head to meet his eyes.
Then ...…
Ethan's jaw dropped and his eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't believe his eyes. wait! is he dreaming? Can someone wake him up this instant?! or perhaps, did he got into an accident on his way back to the hotel and was put in comma? Why is he seeing unbelievable things? or should he say ---- someone who's not supposed to be alive!
Those eyes, the nose, the lips… he couldn't be mistaken. It's definitely her.
Aisha!!!
