Chapter 64

After an hour, the couple finally went down.  Tanaga's happiness was visibly etched on his face while they were in the elevator as it went down.  He was wearing the simple clothes that his butler bought that Ashley gave him so that he will not look so intimidating.  However, no matter how simple the clothes he's wearing, he's aura scream wealth and prestige.

What actually happened a while ago when Ashley was missing was... She went down, wanting to buy some clothes for Tanaga to wear.  She thought Tanaga was sighing earlier because he did not know what he should wear. So she dressed up and went down hurriedly that she forgot that she didn't have any money with her. 

She saw her family when she was in the lobby, but she hid from them first.  She walked to the hotel's gift shop to look if they were selling some clothes.  By chance, she met their butler who was carrying a bag.

"Ma'am, where are you going?  Is sir with you?" the butler asked while wondering why Tanaga was missing.

"Oh, Mr. Butler, good thing I saw you.  I wanted to buy Sir something simple to wear, but I forgot to bring any money," Ashley said shyly due to her forgetfulness. 

"No sweat, ma'am.  Here, you don't need to buy anymore.  Check out what is inside."

Ashley was so happy when she learned that inside the bag brought in by the butler are clothes and shoes for Tanaga.

"How did you know that Mr. Jones might need this?" Ashley asked the butler while walking back to the private elevator.

The butler just smiled at Ashley while saying, "Secret!  Hahahaha! Because I was the one who raised him, I already know how he thinks."

"Oh, right! What kind of question is that? Hahaha!" I'm sorry," Ashley shyly replied.

"Alright, I'll go to my room first to bring the things I bought.  If you need anything, my room is on the other side of your room." The two went their separate ways, the butler going towards the regular elevator while Ashley went to the private elevator where she met Tanaga...

Ashley's family was in the restaurant by the swimming pool. They were so happy when a concierge approached them to say that he was assigned to their family as their tour guide.  When they passed by the casino area, they suddenly brightened up when they heard the sound of the slot machine.

"Can we go in there?  I haven't been inside a casino my whole life!" asked one of Ashley's brother to the concierge.

"Of course, why not?  However, you cannot take pictures inside because that is not allowed," the concierge answered, which made him look arrogant in the eyes of Aling Fely and Mang Jessie.

"If that's the case, never mind since we cannot take our picture there.  Let's go since Ashley might be on her way down," Mang Jessie told his sons.

When they were near the swimming pool area, the concierge received a call from the walkie-talkie from the butler.  He ordered him to bring the guests to the VIP section of the restaurant by the pool. After talking with the butler, the concierge looked at the people he was with and thought...

"I wonder who these people are?  Why is the upper management taking care of them so well? They even look like their from the province, hmmm?  Oh well! At least my mission is about to be done." He quickly went to Ashey's family and told them that they are expected at the restaurant by the pool.

They excitedly followed the concierge because they thought Ashley was already waiting for them.  When they reached the restaurant, they were surprised to see the food that was prepared for them.  There were several tables with rows of food, served buffet style.

"Are you sure that these are for us, "Aling Fely asked the concierge, her eyes getting more prominent with disbelief?

"I was told that these are all for you.  Come, let us go inside. Follow me." And the concierge turned his back on them without even saying goodbye to the brothers and father of Ashley.

They just sat down when Ashley arrived with a perfect looking man.  The forehead of Ashley's father and brothers all wrinkled at the sight of this while Fely gaped her mouth open as if she was enchanted.

They cannot believe that the guy with Ashley is her boss, but then again, it is more unbelievable that he is her boyfriend.  That is why all of Ashley's brothers and father glared at them as Ashley and Tanaga approached them while Fely smiled and stood up to welcome them.  

Tanaga saw the faces of Ashley's family as they got nearer.  When they did not stand up to greet him, he raised his eyebrows, and his forehead twitched.  However, as they got closer to Ashley's family... A smile procured on his handsome face to make them feel at ease.
