It was already past one o’clock in the early morning, and the receptionist recognized them, so there were mo unnecessary questions. She checked them out with a smile. “Come again to our hotel next time, Mr. and Mrs. Fowler.”
Rena felt a Little embarrassed, but Waylen took it all in stride.
When he received the invoice, he casually asked, “Can I apply for a membership card? Is there a discount for members next time?”
The receptionist quickly processed the request and handed him the card.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRena couldn’t help but correct him, “There won’t be a next time!”
Waylen put the membership card into his pocket and smoothened his sweater. Then, looking at Rena, he asked, “Didn’t you feel good just now? I felt so good.
Blushing, Rena didn‘t want to continue the topic with him anymore.
Waylen started the car slowly.
As Rena was about to rest her eyes, she caught sight of a woman sitting in a red sports car not far away, staring expressionlessly at them.
The woman had Long black hair and a thin face, resembling Aline.
It sent chills down Rena’s spine. She quickly straightened up and tried to see clearly, but the red sports car turned and drove away in another direction.
Waylen sensed her unease and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”
Haunted by shock, Rena leaned back in her seat and said, “I thought I saw Aline. Waylen, why is she here in the middle of the night? Is she following us on purpose?”
Frowning, he gently patted her hand and reassured her. “I’ll have someone check the surveillance video tomorrow!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRena nodded in agreement, but it was difficult to calm down. She still felt uneasy when they arrived home. Waylen made her a cup of hot milk, and after drinking it, she felt somewhat better.
In the dim light, Rena leaned against the head of the bed, Looking a Little weak.
Waylen gently caressed her head and comforted her in a low voice. “I’m calling to have someone check the surveillance video now. Take it easy, okay?”
He urged her to rest and went to the study by himself.
In about half an hour, Waylen obtained the surveillance video of the hotel’s parking lot through his connections. After carefully examining it multiple times, he found that the woman in the red sports car was not Aline.
Waylen examined the video of that period several times.
Satisfied, he expressed his gratitude to Mr. Winston and promised to treat him to dinner next time.
The man politely responded in return.
Back in the bedroom, Waylen found Rena was still awake. He touched her head and said, “I’ve checked it. It was not Aline! Their style of clothing was only somewhat similar.”
