My billionaire husband spoils me too much -
Chapter 382
Time passed slowly. And the hands of the clock on the wall moved second by second.
Everyone waited from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. It was hard to spend this period of time. And the snowstormoutside became heavier. The temperature was obviously decreasing.
There were four ice swans on the large disk in front of the hotel gate, but they were smashed by thebillboard which was blown away last night. The hotel logistics staff were moving and cleaning up.Through the glass door, Christina looked at the thermometer on the stone pillar. It was 12 degreesbelow zero.
She kept staring at the cleaners outside. One of the strong male employees was holding a hammerin his right hand. As he turned around, he happened to hit the thermometer on the stone pillar.
As if it was just an accident, they continued to clean up.
"Although there's a heater in the hotel, I feel colder and colder. Is it my illusion? What's thetemperature outside now?"
Crystal curled up with cold and walked towards her with a thick scarf.
"It is12 degrees below zero outside.”
Christina replied calmly. She took the scarf and wrapped it around her neck casually.
When Crystal heard that, she was stunned for a moment. “Impossible.” Looking out of the glassdoor subconsciously, she remembered that there was a thermometer on the stone pillar next to theice sculpture.
It was broken.
Christina's eyes were clear and she said with a flat voice, "The staff in the hotel probably didn't wantto cause panic. I saw that they broke it on purpose.”
All the doors and windows of the hotel were locked, and the entrance of the lobby was guarded.Tourists were not allowed to enter or leave at will.
Everyone seemed to be ready to leave. Their luggage was packed and they walked up and down theelevator. More and more people gathered in the lobby. It was as crowded as an airport waitingroom.
There were about 200 people including passengers and staff. They spoke various languages withthin voices. Perhaps because there was no signal, they couldn't make phone calls. Everyone was veryanxious.
"Go to the restaurant for lunch.”
Christina struggled through the crowd and walked towards the hotel restaurant. Crystal followedbehind Christina hurriedly. "Christina, do you think that the eight people have already arrived at thebottom of the mountain? Hey, it's better to leave early. The hotel is crammed with people. Theatmosphere is so tense that I feel terrible.”
Originally, she was very happy because of going on a trip. But now it was as if a refugee was rushinghome. She had no appetite to eat anything.
"If you don't fill yourself up, you won't be able to run anymore.”
Crystal was nervous when she heard that, "What do you mean? Didn't the hotel manager tell us towait until 2 p.m. There will be a car to pick us up.”
"Anyway, it's better to fill yourself up.”
She patted Crystal on the shoulder, "You still have to take care of Geoffrey. He'll laugh at you laterfor being such a coward.”
Crystal also knew that she was timid, "I don't know how to show my stepmother's imposing manner.Geoffrey has never been afraid of me. Maybe I'm really useless.” But it was really hard for ordinarypeople to calm down in such an atmosphere.
They were joking with each other. Suddenly, they were quiet. On the right, they noticed Barbarapulling her suitcase and talking to a hotel staff irritably.
"What do you mean? You said 2:00 p.m. before, but now you told me that I wouldn't get a car untilnight." Barbara looked quite angry.
She was so angry that she spoke Chinese. Then Christina and Crystal reacted immediately.
They had to wait for the car until night.
Crystal cursed sadly, "Gosh, the hotel is too unreliable.”
The hotel staff kept apologizing and comforting Barbara, "Miss Parker, I'm really sorry."
"Do you know how much time I have wasted? I still have a lot of work to do. How can I cooperatewith you with such a service attitude?" Barbara looked angry.
The director of the hotel, Ray, came over. Because Barbara was on a business trip this time, she andRay had been friends, so she could get more information early.
Ray waved at her mysteriously, "Miss Parker, please come to my office. I have something to tellyou..."
They stood in the hallway leading to the dining room. They spoke Chinese, but the foreign guestswho came back and forth hurriedly did not understand, so they didn't pay attention to them.Feeling something was wrong, Crystal tugged at Christina's sleeve, "Do she engage in specialprivileges?"
Christina glanced at Barbara and ignored her. She pulled Crystal to walk quickly towards therestaurant, looking for Charles and the others to gather together.
As they ate lunch, they talked about the thing just now.
"If anything really happens, Ray will definitely inform Barbara in advance. After all, IP&G is theirbiggest partner at the moment. Recently, there is a project that is very competitive in Europe. If Antawants to make achievements, he won't dare to offend Barbara, the high management of IP&G."
As Chandler spoke, he mocked himself, "I went to his office this morning. He kicked me out directly.It seems that he only gave IP&G face.”
When Charles and Crystal heard that, they immediately subconsciously looked at Christina withburning eyes, "Do we need to make a relationship..."
Christina ignored their eyes.
