“Why would you say such a thing?!” Bianca hissed. “Do you know what happens if you stay with him alone in a hotel room?!”
“I PANICKED!”
“You don’t flirt with billionaires by suggesting hotels, Elena!”
Elena covered her face miserably.
“I’m scared, Bianca,” she admitted weakly. “I don’t want to give my first time to a jerk. He’s not worth it and besides, I don’t love him. I don’t even know him.”
Bianca sighed heavily.
“Okay. Calm down. Just leave.”
“I can’t just leave!”
“Yes you can!”
“He’s sitting there calmly booking a luxury hotel suite like this is NORMAL.”
“Then fake an emergency!”
Elena was about to respond when the restroom door suddenly opened outside.
Voices entered.
She quickly ended the call and stepped out of the stall nervously.
“Relax,” she muttered to herself while fixing her dress in the mirror. “You’ll just politely end the date and go home.”
Easy simple . Manageable.
Unfortunately..
life hated Elena Rivers.
“….”
Twenty minutes later, Damien exited the hotel reception area beside her calmly.
“The suite is ready,” he said smoothly.
SUITE.
“….”
Elena nearly fainted again internally.
The luxurious hotel lobby glowed with chandeliers and marble floors while rich guests moved around elegantly.
Meanwhile Elena was busy planning ten different escape routes.
She barely took another step before suddenly—
SLAP!
A sharp force hit her jaw violently as she staggered back lightly.
“What kind of shameless woman sleeps with married men?!”
Elena gasped in shock as a furious woman lunged toward her aggressively.
“What?!”
The woman grabbed Elena’s arm tightly “You think stealing someone’s husband is cute?!”
“I think you’ve mistaken me for somebody else!”
“No I haven’t!”
The woman pointed furiously.
“You wore this same dress while seducing my husband!” The woman handed her a picture and said isn’t this you?” You even dyed your hair to look unrecognizable but too bad for you because today is going to be the worst day of your life.
Elena blinked rapidly.
“What dress—?”
Then both women turned simultaneously.
And froze.
Across the hotel lobby stood another young woman wearing the EXACT same red satin dress Elena had on same color same design same everything
The other woman looked horrified before immediately bolting toward the elevators.
“There!” Elena cried. “That’s clearly the person you’re looking for!”
But the furious woman refused to listen.
“You think I’m stupid?!” she snapped before grabbing Elena again.
“Oh my God—stop hitting me!”
Damien moved instantly His expression darkened dangerously as he stepped between them.
“Enough.”
The single word came out cold enough to freeze the entire lobby.
The woman finally paused.
And for the first time seemed to actually notice Damien beside Elena.
Her anger faltered immediately.
Damien’s gray eyes turned terrifying.
“You touched her.”
The quiet fury in his voice made nearby guests visibly uncomfortable.
Yes I did.. she is my husband’s mistress and this is what happens…….
The furious woman was still yelling somewhere behind them when Elena saw her chance. And like every intelligent woman facing emotional disaster she bolted towards the exit of the restaurant—
Ahh thank the heavens for this opportunity and in an instant she chose violence and escape.
“BYE!”
Before Damien could grab her, Elena yanked her arm free and took off running out of the hotel lobby at full speed.
Her heels clicked wildly against the marble floor.
“Miss—!” one hotel staff member shouted.
Too late.
The revolving glass door spun aggressively as Elena practically launched herself through it like an escaping criminal.
