Chapter 32
The room fell into a moment of silence before Yuna shattered the quiet
atmosphere, her tone laced with utter disbelief. “What?”
The Presidential Suite? The stuff of fiction, something Yuna had only ever read
about in novels, was Cordelia really going to stay there?
Yuna turned to look at her schoolmate. Cordelia stood serene and unassuming in
her plain uniform, betraying no hint of wealth or privilege. Yet, her striking beauty
and commanding presence suggested she was no ordinary teenager. Could this
be what real affluence looked like?
Swallowing hard, Yuna quickly adjusted her earlier standoffish attitude, her smile
now awkward and strained. “Oh, Cordelia, I totally got the wrong end of the stick
earlier!”
She scampered over, her smile now all ingratiating charm. “Mr. Latham and Zack
wanted us to stick together, you know? To keep you safe at night, in case you got
scared or something. So, um, do you want me to come with?
The idea of crashing in the Presidential Suite with Cordelia had Yuna's mind
spinning with the social currency she'd gain at school! But would Cordelia
agree...?
Just as she pondered this, Cordelia furrowed her brow in confusion.
She hadn't requested an upgrade to the Presidential Suite. What was going on?
Her phone chimed.
Boss Wallace explained, “I got a sweet deal at the hotel you're staying at and
upgraded you to the Presidential Suite!
Cordelia was indifferent to where she stayed, but she wouldn't turn down a more
luxurious option, especially with a hefty amount in her bank account. She texted
back, “How much? I'll pay you back when I return.”
The reply came swiftly, “$8.8.
Was this some sort of group discount deal?
Pondering over this, she set her phone aside. At the sight of Yuna's eagerness,
Cordelia paused before. speaking, “Pack your stuff.”
Yuna was over the moon, hardly believing her luck. She hurriedly gathered her
barely touched luggage, then stood expectantly before Cordelia, backpack in
hand. “All set!”
Cordelia, dragging her suitcase with leisurely grace, was just about to exit when
a hotel staff member took over, “Ms. Delaney, allow me to assist with your
luggage.”
Cordelia nodded in thanks
She may not have been accustomed to such high-end accommodations, but she
felt perfectly at ease. As they approached the exclusive elevator that serviced the
Presidential Suite, Yuna practically sprinted inside.
But in that moment, Cordelia’s slender and fair hand grasped Yuna's arm. Yuna
turned, only to hear Cordelia say slowly, “Your elevator is over there.”
Yuna was dumbfounded. “But the Presidential Suite is accessed through this
elevator.”
Cordelia glanced at the elevator with detached eyes. “Oh, but the apartments for
Greenmeadow High School. are serviced by a different lift.”
Yuna was stunned, disbelief etching her features.
Cordelia then turned to another staff member, saying, “Would you mind taking
her to Greenmeadow High School's side? Please arrange another room for her.”
With those words, Cordelia stepped into the elevator.
Greenmeadow High School was a prestigious institution, but its student body
mainly came from modest backgrounds unlike the affluent children from the
Greenmeadow International School,
Their accommodations were in a separate building, far more affordable.
Cordelia’s room had been arranged by Latham, paid for by Greenmeadow
International School's funds. Yuna wouldn't have had the chance to stay there if
not for Cordelia’'s company. Now, she was being
unceremoniously relegated back to her original status.
Yuna stood there, shocked. It was only as the elevator doors were closing that
she sprang to action, shouting, “Cordelia, are you playing me?!”
A staff member blocked her advance, “Please don't disturb our esteemed guest.
If you refuse to cooperate, I'll have no choice but to contact your teachers.”
Seething with frustration, Yuna kicked the wall beside her. “So what if it's the
Presidential Suite! Who do you think you are? How much? I want an upgrade
tool”
Before departing, she had extracted three thousand from her parents. Even if it
was just to save face, she'd splurge on one night!
That was when she heard the staff member chuckle, “The Presidential Suite has
several tiers. Ms. Delaney’s suite is the top-tier, costing $10,000 for one night.”
Yuna was dumbfounded.
The Presidential Suite was perched at the pinnacle of the hotel, boasting
breathtaking views and an expansive layout of over three thousand square feet.
Beyond the living room, lounge, and bedroom, there was a private study. The
lady's personal care items were all from high-end brands and luxury permeated
every detail.
Cordelia glanced around, mildly impressed, but mostly indifferent. She headed
straight for the study, resumed reviewing her papers.
When the concierge inquired politely, “Ms. Delaney, we can arrange for your
evening meal to be delivered to your suite. Please feel free to enjoy the minibar.
When would you like to dine?”
Cordelia, who didn’t want to waste time going out, was pleasantly surprised by
the offer.
Once the staff member left and serenity returned to the suite, Cordelia picked up
her phone, texting Little Fang, “The room is great, thanks.’
At Midnight Scent, Calvert sat on a tiny stool, gazing lovingly at his phone
perched on the counter. It was a hot new release he’d managed to snag after
much effort, and the idea of parting with it was like a dagger to his heart.
Now, with Everard not messaging Cordelia, Calvert thought-maybe he could play
with it for a bit. What harm could there be?
He reached out stealthily for the phone, only for it to buzz at his
s touch.
Everard's pale fingers snatched the phone away before he could grasp it.
Calvert watched as his boss skimmed the message, his icy gaze then sliding
over to him.

Glancing at the phone's screen, Calvert ventured, “Boss, I've been thinking.
Cordelia didn’t add you because you never said who you were.”
Everard tapped a rhythmic beat on the tabletop. “And?”

Calvert laughed, “Watch this!”
He grabbed his phone and shot off a quick message.
Boss Wallace said, “Actually, the room was booked by my boss for you, haha~
Why don’t you add him as a friend? His name is E
“Hey boss, just sent a friend request,” he told Everard casually, who nodded and
proceeded to add the new
contact.

They paused for three seconds before realizing the vibrating sound had come
from Calvert's phone.
Bewildered, Calvert looked down to find a reply from Cordelia.
Learn Lover replied, “Oh, no need for that, I've got his number.”
Reading the message, Calvert stiffened, lifting his gaze....
