Chapter 20. The arrogant hotel owner
ปรับปรุงล่าสุด:
2025-03-20 15:25:44Just like the previous morning, Adelia arrived at the hotel where she worked with a sluggish step. After all, she had to keep working in order to pay off her father's debt, which was still outstanding even though she had received a substantial dowry.
Hearing instructions from her CEO that there was a work meeting downstairs, Adelia went straight to the room where the hotelliers were usually briefed for the meeting.
Adelia entered the meeting room with hesitant steps. There were already several employees there as well as the CEO, Mrs. Smule.
Unsuspecting, she looked around the room, looking for a place to sit. When her gaze fell on the figure sitting in the middle of the meeting chair, her heart almost stopped beating. A deep sense of shock hit her when she realized that it was Afgan, the husband who hated her.
“Afgan!?”
She looked at him wide-eyed, her lips pres

Melinda said in a spoiled voice that was deliberately loud so that it could be heard by other people too, apart from Adelia.The other employees and hoteliers only smiled because they knew that Adelia was the character Melinda wanted to bother, so they chose to remain silent as an act of professionalism at work.Melinda said arrogantly, making Adelia upset. Especially when she found out that the owner of the hotel was her own husband.Apart from Melinda, no one knew that Afgan, the handsome but arrogant hotel owner, was her husband. Adelia clenched her hands tightly.However, Adelia couldn't do anything because their marriage was a secret, unknown to everyone.“What do you want, Melinda?” Adelia's voice was raised. A sharp gaze was directed at Melinda.Mrs. Smule and Afgan had finished talking and they returned to the meeting room to retrieve the

Honey, I'll pick you up later this afternoon after work, sorry if I can't join you for lunch.”The familiar voice made Adelia start to feel annoyed again. She chose to pretend not to see. Adelia knew that Afgan and Melinda were heading her way.“... but, I want to room with you.” Melinda's spoiled words made Adelia's blood boil even more.Grumpily, she left the reception desk and deliberately passed in front of the two disgusted lovebirds with a cardboard box containing quite a lot of documents in her hand.“You disgust me. Go find a room if you can't stand it anymore!” Adelia then glanced at Afgan, who seemed to have anger in his eyes.“As the owner of the hotel, of course you have the right to all the room keys, be careful!” Adelia approached Afgan and half-whispered, “Choose a room that doesn't have surveillance cameras!”

Adelia looked at Edward with a curious look. “Why do you have to stay until the weekend and what do you want to prove?” Adelia asked.Edward gave a warm smile and then wiped away the remaining tears on Adelia's cheeks with his thumbs.“I don't like seeing a woman as beautiful as you having to cry like this. How about I cheer you up by treating you to dinner? Hmm, you owe me two cups of coffee, don't you?”Edward held her hand on his chin with a warm gaze, making Adelia's heart begin to flutter. She tried to save her awkwardness by carrying the cardboard boxes to the warehouse.Edward helped Adelia put the cardboard box she had been holding into the warehouse. “What about my offer? What time are we having dinner?”Adelia still felt uncomfortable about going home at night. So far, Afgan's view of her had been very unfavorable, what if she still w

“How was your day, Adelia?” asked Afgan suddenly in a voice that sounded hollow, as if he was just trying to find a topic of conversation.“Fine,” Adelia replied briefly, without giving any details. Instead, she was busy sticking her head out to see what she could eat at the long table.They began to put food on their plates, but there was no other sound except for the sound of spoons and forks touching plates. Everything felt restrained and formal, with no warmth or closeness between them.Although the food was delicious, the cold and stiff atmosphere enveloped them like a night fog enveloping a city.Although they were in the midst of luxury, the emptiness in their relationship was obvious.Adelia still wondered to herself why Afgan had suddenly asked her to dinner. However, the delicious food made her not care about that. Her stomach was hungry and need

Adelia was in pain in her stomach. Stomach acid made her bloated and she felt pain in her solar plexus, so her vision began to spin. She was holding a plate of food when it fell to the floor.The sound of the broken plate reached Afgan's ears in the next room. No one was able to open the door despite Afgan's vigorous banging.Adelia held her stomach with a pale face and trembled with pain.“Help!!” she cried out in pain.Afgan had even tried to smash the door in panic, especially when he heard Adelia moaning, indicating that something bad was happening.The luxurious and strong wooden door was not easy to knock down. Afgan grimaced at the pain in his shoulder as he tried to break down the door repeatedly to no avail.Finally, the butler made a small run for the spare key and approached Afgan.The door opened, and Afgan immedia

Afgan looked at Adelia who was still sleeping peacefully in her bed. It was late and he decided to lie down next to Adelia for a moment with the intention of looking after her, but fatigue and sleepiness overtook him and he fell asleep until morning.The sun slipped through and greeted them with warmth. Adelia woke up and felt a heavy arm around her waist.Adelia's eyes immediately rounded sharply, violently pushing Afgan's hand away in surprise.“Aowh!” Adelia winced as she realized the IV needle in her hand.She glanced at the man who became her husband. The sharp nose matched with his firm jaw, making Afgan's face perfect and very attractive.A moment later, Afgan opened his eyes and their gazes met. Adelia blinked her eyes repeatedly because she felt awkward.“If you've recovered, please go back to your room! It's cramped in here and you keep snoring. It's so noisy!” Afgan excla

Melinda immediately took her lover Afgan's hand and headed to the 8th floor restaurant where they were to enjoy a sumptuous breakfast served by the international hotel.Melinda didn't stop babbling while Afgan was still curious about Adelia's whereabouts.At the same time, Adelia was organizing files into a small warehouse. Adelia was starting to feel tired and sweaty as she had just climbed the stairs to the fifth floor.“Not having breakfast again! If I do that, I'll die young,” said Adelia, talking to herself while holding her stomach, which was still in pain.“Who told you not to eat?”Adelia was surprised to hear the voice of a man who turned out to be Edward. The man stood in front of the warehouse door with a warm friendly smile on his face.“Edward.”“Does it hurt?” asked Edward appr

“Afgan, it's not what you think. We just sat together for breakfast by chance. I had no idea that you would also be here.”Afgan sighed deeply, but was still angry. “This is too much of a coincidence, Adelia. I don't know what to believe. Why didn't you tell me that you were going to meet with Edward? We should have had breakfast together this morning. Doesn't your stomach still hurt?” Afgan pointed at Adelia right on the forehead with his forefinger.“Afgan, I really didn't know he would be here. This is just a coincidence. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.” Adelia replied anxiously.“Heartache? Ohh, no, you're overreacting! I feel ashamed! Yes! ashamed! Did you hear that?!”“You're really cheap!”“You...”Adelia felt sick from being yelled at cheaply so many times, but she still hope

“Borrow?” Adelia was surprised by Melinda's offer. She had never expected help from the woman who had previously been so cold to her. However, her thoughts immediately flew to her father and the enormous burden of debt.After thinking for a moment, in her desperation, she decided to accept Melinda's offer with hesitation. “Are you serious?” she asked, seeking reassurance.Melinda nodded, eyes full of hidden ambition. “Of course, I'm serious. We can arrange the terms later. I just want to help you, Adelia.” Melinda approached Adelia, who was already sitting on the edge of the bed.“Besides, that man has always looked down on you. I sympathize with you too even though he's never been that rude to me, maybe...”Melinda saw Adelia's reaction before continuing her sentence. “Maybe, it's because he loves me sincerely.”Adelia felt saddened by Afgan's declaration of love for Melinda, as well as touched by the offer, although she still felt suspicious of Melinda's true intentions. However, sh

Edward felt it wise to choose silence in this complicated situation. He felt that prolonging the current discussion would not provide a good solution.In his heart, he planned to approach Adelia. He knew that Adelia and Afgan needed to work things out on their own, and he wanted to give them the necessary time and space to do so.Edward felt Afgan didn't want her, why didn't he approve of their relationship? Edward felt so fond of Adeli that he headed to the same village pretending to have received an invitation from the village chief.Edward would look for and approach Adelia tomorrow morning. If necessary, he wanted to express his intention to pursue Adelia's heart and deal manfully with Afgan. After all, the husband didn't want Adelia. He himself was too busy with Melinda. Edward monologued to himself as he lay on his bed.Meanwhile, Afgan wanted to go back to his room, but Melinda clung to him and took him to enjoy the night breeze.Hatchiii!Afgan was getting clean because of the

Adelia gently stood up from her chair and smiled at Edward, giving him permission to sit next to her. Edward graciously thanked her, creating a moment of calm amidst the bustle of the dining table. However, Afgan's gaze, which had been reflecting his astonishment, began to turn into an expression of unconcealed suspicion.“Edward, it's you again,” Afgan greeted with a faint smile that tried to hide his jealousy. “What brings you to this event?”Edward replied kindly, “I am a friend of the Village Chief. He invited me to join him in this event.”Afgan tried to hold back his feelings of jealousy, but a very strong fire of jealousy began to burn in his heart. He felt uncomfortable with Edward's presence, especially since he knew that Adelia and Edward had made out in the barn before.“Interesting,” Afgan said in a voice that tried to sound neutral. “Adelia, did you not tell me that you were coming with me?”“I-I just didn't know he was here,” Adelia replied awkwardly. Adelia felt trapped

"Afgan will like the way I smell from now on. She quickly remembered the brand used. The brand was indeed the same as the one Adelia had mentioned earlier. Only the type of scent was different. Melinda patted her head with a smile, realizing that she hadn't asked in detail before.Melinda took a shower while singing cheerfully and playing with a very large amount of soap. She lathered up her whole body as well as a generous amount of shampoo for her hair.Meanwhile, Afgan sat in his room in deep confusion. He pondered the decisions he had to make, trying to find a way out of the emotional turmoil he was experiencing.Adelia's haggard face looked unlit and burdened, and for some reason, Afgan felt uncomfortable with that attitude.Putting Adelia and Melinda in the same room was not a good decision. Afgan was afraid that Melinda would make Adelia even sadder with the words she would say.

The bus glided slowly along the winding path towards the tourism village. The sun was slowly sinking in the western horizon, creating silhouettes of trees and traditional houses looming on the horizon. When the bus finally arrived at the tourism village location two hours later, the cool and beautiful atmosphere immediately greeted them.From the bus window, Melinda could see the beauty of the village unfolding before her. Green trees and vast expanses of rice fields dot the landscape, creating a calm and peaceful atmosphere. Traditional buildings with thatched roofs and wooden walls gave an authentic feel, while the fragrant scent of flowers floated in the air, refreshing their senses.The bus passengers got off one by one, breathing in the fresh air of the village that was so different from the hustle and bustle of the city. Some of them looked mesmerized by the beauty of the natural surroundings, while others smiled to enjoy the silence t

Afgan faithfully accompanied the weak and sick Melinda until late afternoon. He had no chance to see Adelia at all, as his attention was fully devoted to Melinda. Inwardly, though, he still felt confused and vacillated between two complicated feelings.Until finally, when the sun began to sink in the western horizon, Afgan decided to take Melinda home. He helped Melinda walk slowly, feeling guilty because she looked so weak.“Thank you, Afgan,” Melinda said in a fragile voice, ”I know this is hard for you too.”Afgan nodded, trying to put on a gentle smile despite his deep sense of indecision. “You should rest well, Melinda. Tomorrow I'll pick you up for the exhibition at the tourism village.”Melinda looked at Afgan with a mixed look in her eyes. Although she was devastated by this complicated situation, her strength returned. “I will go tomorrow, Afgan. I w

Mrs. Smule immediately returned to her room as soon as she knew Afgan had left the room. Upon re-entering her room, she saw Adelia still crying, with her face covered by her hands on the table. Mrs. Smule felt concerned and decided to approach her.“Adelia, what happened?” asked Mrs. Smule in a gentle tone, trying to calm the young woman in front of her. “Why does the owner of this hotel seem to hate you so much? Is there anything I can do to help?”Adelia raised her head slowly, trying to relax the tension that was in her. She sighed and tried to explain, “We had a big fight, Mrs. Smule. He was very angry with me for something that didn't really happen. It's all so complicated.”Mrs. Smule nodded in understanding even though Adelia didn't tell her clearly, she didn't want to push, instead she felt compassion for the sadness in Adelia's eyes. She sat down nearby and placed a hand gentl

“What? Two inch? Two inch insect?” Melinda opened her mouth, unable to believe what she had just heard from Afgan. She felt shaky, but Afgan remained silent, focused on driving the car attentively.Melinda sensed an uneasiness in the air, sensing that Afgan did not want to talk to her. A cold aura began to fill the space inside the car. Inwardly, Melinda felt jealous, sensing that Afgan was paying inappropriate attention to her, the wife he considered cheap. Nevertheless, she promised in her heart to intensify her mission, which was to win Afgan's heart and attention.The car slowly slowed down as it approached the main door of the hotel. Afgan immediately got out of the car and gave the keys to the parking attendant. With quick steps, he walked away, fully focused on pursuing Adelia. Afgan even forgot about Melinda, who was still in the passenger seat.“Afgan!” Melinda shouted, trying to get her

The looks of surprise and annoyance on Afgan and Melinda's faces were piercing, making the atmosphere in Edward's car tense.“What are you doing?” Adelia whispered to Edward shakily, feeling anxious about the situation that had suddenly become very complicated.Edward looked at Adelia with an apologetic expression. “I'm sorry, Adelia. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable. I just wanted to show my support. I want to have you, Adelia.”However, Adelia didn't have time to consider Edward's explanation. She felt increasingly sandwiched between two conflicting worlds. On the one hand, she felt connected to Edward and felt comfortable in his presence. On the other hand, she still had a complicated history with Afgan.Meanwhile, Afgan and Melinda were in a state of shock and anger. Afgan looked at Adelia with a mixed look on his face, while Melinda seemed to be revealing a cu
