Chapter 269 “I’m not ke Ms. Lolus. I’ve never claimed to be a saint. Once I catch any of you violating the rules, either you resign on your own accord. or kick you out, with no room for negotiation, Larissa declared attempting to establish herself as a cold-hearted “villain” to intimidate the employees who cisobeyed her management. She wasn’t concerned with gaining their liking or respect; her only expectation was for them to fulfil their duties diligently. After delivering her message, she turned and walked away. As she turned around, she noticed the door of a room across the comidor wide open. A young man in pajamas leaned against the doorframe. His gaze fixed on her with a hall-smile. The man was quite handsome, bearing a slight resemblance to Kevan at first glance. However, his overall demeanor leaned more toward a gentle and effeminate nature, lacking Kevan’s cold and distant aura. Thinking that her loud voice might have disturbed him. Larissa quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, sir. Did I wake you up?”

The man shook his head. “No.” There was a hint of interest in his gaze as he observed her, “You must be the new manager of the housekeeping department, right?” Larissa immediately realized that the man was not an ordinary guest-there was a good chance he had some connection to the hotel. Im just filling in temporarily for a few days. There should d be a new manager for the housekeeping department coming soon,” she Explained. “I see.” The man nodded knowingly. Nice to meet you, regardless.” He charmingly smiled, revealing a pair of smal canine teeth. “You can continue with your work. I won’t disturb you” With that he retreated into the room and closed the door, She gazed at the closed door for a few more secones, shrugged her shoulders, and left with lingering questions.

She seems to be the manager of the housekeeping department at Regal Dynasty Hotel, She’s not bad-locking, somewhat resembling Ruby. I’d say, Kevan probably likes this type. What? Me? Are you sure you want me to go? Yo, doing something like this once is already enough. Il we do it again… I’m afraid Kevan will really kill us all… Alright then.” After hanging up the phone, the man let out a long sigh. His expression was filled with complexity. Word of Larissa’s remarks at the utility room entrance seemed to have spread. In the afternoon, when the other housekeepers saw her, they treated her with utmost respect, and none of them dared to give her a hard time. As she supervised their work, she also noticed a significant improvement in their diligence compared to before. She thought to herself. “This could be considered a good stan.” be in place tomorrow. And also. His gaze turned dars, revealing a chilling intent. “The new general manager will also arrive tomorrow. He’s being brought in from the Soaring Corporation despite having no prior hotel management experience. Try to keep your distance from him and avoid provoking him unless necessary.” When Larissa returned to the room in the evening, she mentioned the new employees to Kevan. He responded, “They will His description sparked Larissa’s interest in the general manager. “Why?” she asked. Kevan pursed his lips. Well he’s my cousin and one of the people who hates me the most. Once he finds out about your relationship with me..” He leaned down, gripping her thin, bringing his lace extremely close to hers. His lips nearly touched hers. Larissa involuntarily held her breath. Her heartbeat raced wildly, and her eyes locked onto his, “Do you think he would spare you?”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
