A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 359

After exiting his car, Hubert sprinted to the last vehicle, gesturing for the

bodyguard to step aside, and then opened the door himself. “Mr. Magnus, we

have arrived!” he said, his face lit up with a grin. Since his father had

entrusted him with this responsibility, he could not shirk his duty to take good

care of this guest!

Gautier was supposed to host this guest but was too busy and had to ask

Hubert to fill in at the last minute.

At the next moment, a man got out of the car. He was strikingly good–looking,

but his Harry Potter–like glasses gave him an air of scholarly gravitas.

On the other hand, Eleanor felt a flutter in her chest when she saw this man,

and her eyes lingered involuntarily on Magnus. Hubert is one of Yeringham’s

wealthiest young men, so seeing him treat another person with such

deference surprises me. So, who could this other man be?

“Eleanor, is our private room ready?”

Jonathan suddenly spoke, bringing her back to her senses.

“Ah, Mr. Verkade… and Mr. Jonathan, the private room is ready. Please follow

me!” She quickly adapted to the situation, and after a brief moment of shock,

she put on a radiant smile as she led the distinguished guests into the

Serenity Resort.

Meanwhile, Magnus was surprised to learn that their private room was ready,

but he said nothing.

Hubert had reserved this private room earlier, and Laura had told him that

Princess Claudette would be celebrating her birthday tonight in Room 888.

Unfortunately, there was nobody in the room when they went in. While

pondering how to explain it to Magnus, he suddenly realized that Magnus

had not entered the room. However, he noticed Magnus standing in the

corridor, apparently lost in thought.

Nonetheless, Magnus glanced at the empty room before leaving, only to stop

in front of Room 1314, where he gingerly opened the door and stood still.

Suddenly, Hubert noticed his unusual behavior and hurriedly walked over.

Seeing this, the others trailed behind him as if they were accompanying a

prince on an outing.

Meanwhile, a man and a woman were engaged in lighthearted conversation

and laughter inside Room 1314. The woman’s face was lit up by a radiant grin,

and it was clear that she was having a wonderful time.

On the other hand, Magnus stared silently at the unfolding events, and

Hubert didn’t dare to speak either. Even though Hubert was a playboy who

didn’t run the family business, he decided to speak less and avoid

embarrassing blunders after hearing from Gautier that Magnus didn’t

appreciate it when people talked out of turn.

When the others noticed the two young men were silent, they stood in the

corridor outside the room.

Due to the uncomfortable silence, Jonathan, thinking he was a smart aleck,

followed Magnus‘ gaze and quickly glanced in that direction. Then, he

instructed Eleanor, “Obviously, this room is better. We’ll take it!” Since he was

from one of the side branches of the wealthy family, he did not know whom

Magnus favored nor his personality. He believed Magnus might have

www

developed a crush on Claudette on that particular day, so he offered to help

him. Furthermore, he had long despised Emmanuel and thought today was

an excellent opportunity to kill two birds with one stone!

After hearing this, her smile froze, but it thawed out almost immediately. After

all, she knew Claudette’s identity and couldn’t possibly offend either of them.

So, she quickly clung to Jonathan’s arm with her full chest pressed against

his hand, then blinked playfully. “Mr. Jonathan, if you like this room, let me

know in advance next time. I will make sure it’s prepared for you!” I knew him

well. He is quite the womanizer, so it works wonders when women act coy

around him. Furthermore, he has a penchant for bragging and constantly

trying to outdo everyone around him.

Nonetheless, at this moment, Jonathan became more ferocious and ruthless

than ever before, and he pushed Eleanor aside callously and said, “Can’t you

understand a simple request? We want this private room now!”

Then, she quickly pleaded, “Mr. Jonathan, our restaurant doesn’t have a policy

of forcibly removing guests. It’s extremely difficult for me to do this!”

“Rules are made by people, and today is the day to change them!” As usual,

he smirked and declared, “Anyway, I don’t care how you do it, but get that

guy out of here immediately!” He did give her some leeway. Of course, I’m

aware of Claudette’s social status, and Eleanor would never dare to remove

her. Nevertheless, getting rid of an ordinary person like Emmanuel should be

a piece of cake, right?

However, to Jonathan’s surprise, Eleanor still refused and continued to plead

with a smile, “Mr. Jonathan, the private room 888 is also very nice. It has a

balcony where you can gaze at the splendid stars tonight-”

Smack! Before she could finish her sentence, he slapped her hard across the

face! The beautiful head captain’s face instantly turned crimson.

“Don’t you understand a simple request? You owe your income and position

today mostly to me. Are you not willing to show me some respect?”

“Mr. Jonathan, I want to help you, but I don’t have the authority to do what

you ask. If I were to do it, it would tarnish the reputation of Serenity Resort,

and the boss would fire me-” Despite her swollen face, Eleanor still refused

to compromise. Deep down, she knew that these spoiled rich youngsters

were capricious. When they liked you or thought you were useful, they’d

throw you a bone and make you wag your tail for them, so when things went

wrong, they wouldn’t help. She worked here for the money and wouldn’t

jeopardize her job just to please a young man like him. Who would support

her in the future if she lost her job? She knew in the eyes of these rich kids she

wasn’t even considered a human; she was just a dog to them!

Seeing that she was adamant about not doing it, Jonathan had no choice

but to enter the private room himself!

At this moment, Hubert quickly whispered to Magnus, “My cousin Jonathan is

a loyal friend. He’s always ready to go to great lengths for his friends and

superiors.”

In response, Magnus nodded slightly but remained silent.

On the other hand, Jonathan knew his position very well! Being from a distant

branch of the Verkade family, he was born a step below the legitimate heirs.

He had to constantly please the family’s main branch to survive, as he knew

he was nothing more than a loyal dog to the Verkade family! If a dog wanted

praise and bones from its master, it had to be ready to attack anyone on

command.

Also, he had a few brothers and wasn’t the oldest or the most talented. If he

wanted more, he had to earn the favor of his father, and to do that, he

needed the approval of his father’s master! He knew he could not impress

Gautier, so Jonathan stayed by Hubert’s side. Despite Hubert’s lack of

abilities, he still held the status of his father’s master. Tonight, for the sake of

his own future and to settle a score, Jonathan was willing to risk it all and

confront Emmanuel, that b*stard!
