Chapter 4 So Embarrassed
Last Updated:
2024-12-09 18:54:32The main hall of the presidential suite was covered with a thick cashmere carpet imported from New Zealand. Handmade with care, it felt soft and plush underfoot as if one was stepping on clouds.
However, given the circumstances, even if Elizabeth really stepped on the clouds, she wouldn't have enjoyed it.
Ronald walked to the side of the sofa and sat down. Elizabeth followed beside him and wanted to speak, but she did not know what to say.
She wasn't even sure if Ronald had recognized her or not.
If he hadn't remembered her from the start, then her current awkward silence would only seem absurd.
"Um...Mr. Marquez, what would you like for dinner?' she asked, forcing a smile. 'We've prepared a menu for you, and I'll show it to you now."
Although she did not wanna be his housekeeper, she had to carry out her duties now that the situation had already forced her into the position.
She turned around and walked over to the bookshelf. Then she took down a menu they had prepared beforehand and held it in front of him.
Maybe it was because she was too anxious and desperate to show how professional she could be, she hit right against the tea table when she was headed to the sofa.
It hurt so much that she instinctively bent down to reach her injured leg. At that time, she suddenly realized that she was still on duty, so she held back her tears. Stiffening her back, she walked over to Ronald with unsteady steps and handed over a menu with both hands, "Mr. Marquez, please have a look."
Ronald took the menu and started flipping through it.
Taking the chance while he was reading the menu, Elizabeth hurriedly bent over and rubbed her calf.
"Do you need to see a doctor?" He asked, his eyes still on the menu.
Upon hearing that, Elizabeth immediately adjusted her facial expression and stood up.
"Mr. Marquez, thank you so much for asking. I don't need a doctor. It's just an accident. I'm fine now."
"Mr. Marquez wasn't talking about your leg,' Oliver Gardner, the assistant explained as he walked over. 'He was suggesting that you check your ears to see if you might have BPPV, which could make your brain fail to receive signals of movements, leading to dizziness."
Hearing that, Elizabeth felt embarrassed.
It turned out that he wasn't concerned. He was just mocking her.
"Sir, the Ostlea Corporation has arranged a welcoming dinner for you. It was personally invited by Sir Flores. Please do attend it." Ignoring Elizabeth, Oliver reported to Ronald.
"We do need to respect him," Ronald said as he stood up. "Reply to him that I'll be there on time."
"Yes, Mr. Marquez," Oliver answered.
Hearing that they were going out to eat dinner at night, Elizabeth heaved a sigh of relief in her heart since they would spend less time together.
When Ronald was changing his clothes, Elizabeth took the opportunity to ask Oliver for his schedule for the next few days. It turned out that Ronald would be fully scheduled, which meant he would only spend the nights at the hotel. That was such a relief for Elizabeth since she would have her daytime free.

In the evening, Ronald and Oliver left the hotel for the banquet. When Elizabeth returned back to her office, she heard people whispering among themselves."Do you know? Mr. Marquez's background is incredible. He's the boss behind the biggest consortium in our country and the leader of the Imperial Group.""Really? No wonder Mr. Booth is so nervous. Many big shots had come here, but I had never seen him so cautious like this.""How can he not be cautious? No one before has such an identity. I really envy Ms. Hubbard. She can Mr. Marquez! Since Ms. Hubbard is so beautiful, could it be that she is lucky and Mr. Marquez gets his eye on her, and directly takes her back to be his wife?""Don't talk nonsense. If that housekeeping girl heard it, she would blame you. Her position as the housekeeper was taken away. You can't imagine how jealous she is now."They were whispering to each other, and neither of them noticed that there was a figure approaching them from the other side."You have no

Elizabeth looked at her phone, she was stunned for half a second before she quickly stood up and went downstairs.The Wildecastle Club was the highest-class private club in Swynwick. Although Elizabeth had never been here before, as a hotel employee, she knew its reputation.Money alone couldn't buy admission to such a high-end club. Those members were highly privileged.It was not strange for such a big shot like Ronald to appear in this place.'But why did he ask me to come here?' thought Elizabeth.Filled with doubts, she got out of the car and headed for the lobby.When she was at the door, she was stopped by security guards."Sorry, ma'am. This is a private club, so only VIP members can enter."After Elizabeth heard this, she realized that she was still wearing the uniform of the hotel. It would be difficult to enter if she just dressed like this.Just as she was thinking about how to deal with the two security guards, she saw Oliver walking out from inside.'I invited her over.

"Stop..." She cried out in fear. While she was struggling, more than half of the collar of her shirt had been torn off by his other hand. Her clothes were instantly torn to shreds, causing her to feel both embarrassed and scared.Yet it seemed that he couldn't hear her voice.He only stopped when he was finally exhausted.Elizabeth didn't know how long the entire process had lasted.

Under the dim light, Ronald scarcely looked as indifferent as usual, and his facial features had become much gentler.Yet even so, she was afraid of him.After getting up and putting on the clothes that he had ripped off, she resisted the discomfort and stumbled out of the room.When Oliver brought the doctor back to th

After Elizabeth left, she did not return to the hotel but went straight back to the single apartment she rented.The first thing she did after entering the door was put in a large tub of warm water and soak herself in it. She tried to use the tub of water to ease the pain in her body.Closing her eyes, she could think of nothing but Ronald.She clearly remembered their first time, second time, third time ... until this time tonight, as though she were watching a movie.Although she didn't understand why he would be so crazy tonight, it was obvious that he had lost all sense of reason.'Was it because he was drunk?' Elizabeth wondered.'No, it couldn't be,' Elizabeth soon rejected her own theory. 'If he had been really wasted, he wouldn't have been able to do such a horrible thing. Even though I was at his service back then, he was still concerned about how I felt and tried his best to be gentle. Yet tonight... he was a total beast, wishing for nothing more than to eat me alive. That w

Hearing this, Blaze paused to think before he said, "It's tricky. The thing is, if I change you now, I'm afraid it would be hard to give Mr. Marquez an explanation."Elizabeth could tell that Blaze wavered, so she hurriedly said, "Mr. Marquez, that's not a problem. After all, Giana is more professional than me. Since Mr. Marquez is willing to accept me, he'll definitely be OK with Giana."Blaze hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Well, then go through the transfer formalities with Giana, and give her the relevant information about Mr. Marquez, so that she can replace you. You may go back to your office after that.""Thank you, Mr. Booth." Receiving the permission to change shifts, Elizabeth heaved a sigh of relief, and even her tone became lighter.Standing up, she thanked Blaze and went out."Remember to explain the situation to Mr. Marquez. Don't let him think that we are the ones who decide it on our own." Blaze reminded her from behind.'Well, I surely won't tell him that I'm

"Ms. Hubbard, he insulted me!" When Dalia saw Elizabeth, she immediately walked over and complained."Damn it. I like you, so I asked you to drink with me. What took you so long?" The drunk male customer shouted while lying down on the sofa with a bottle of whisky in his hand.Seeing that, Elizabeth reached out her hand and pulled Dalia behind her. She patted her shoulder, comforted her, and then turned to look at the drunk customer."Sir, you're drunk. Lie down and rest, please. Please don't drink anymore.""What? I'm not drunk. Come over here and lie down with me." As the man spoke, he suddenly sat up straight and reached out to grab Elizabeth's wrist.When he grabbed her wrist, a disgusting feeling suddenly arose in Elizabeth's heart.

With that, under everyone's astonished gaze, he brought Elizabeth to leave.Ronald did not loosen his grip even after entering the elevator.When the elevator door closed, only them were left standing side by side in the small room.Both kept in silence, numbers on the elevator doors changing from time to time.Elizabeth felt that her small heart beat violently, and her foot that was previously hurt accidentally started to feel great pain.In order not to let her injured foot be affected, she slightly moved her body, supporting herself by her uninjured left foot.It was only a very slight movement, but since he was holding her hand, he could feel it.He turned his head and looked at the little face which sweated and asked in a low gentle voice, "Injured?"Elizabeth didn't expect that he would discover her little movements.

At two in the afternoon, Elizabeth punctually appeared at the Gardner Garden Cafe that Ainsley mentioned.Looking around, there was no sign of her."Miss, how many of you?"
