Chapter 1298 She's Doomed
Though Kenton wasn't privy to the hotel personnel's thoughts or knowledge in ancient martial arts, he knew for sure that the ignorant Wynter was doomed.
Serenity Hotel had long upheld a set of stringent rules. Auctions were prohibited on the first floor, the second floor was strictly off-limits, and troublemakers were promptly expelled.
Only a selected few were granted access to the second floor. Rumors claimed that Gordon had once enjoyed the opera performance from an elevated seat with a young man, who was said to be Serenity Hotel's owner. As it was merely a rumor, the truth remained uncertain.
Kenton doubted that a young man could've built such a renowned business on his own. And if he did exist, why were there no records of his descendants?
Dismissing the thought, Kenton turned to shoot Wynter a spiteful glare. If he couldn't stop her himself, he would leave her to the hotel's judgment. He was determined to ensure that the Quinnell family could never rise again, by whatever means necessary.
Serenity Hotel had one unwavering rule-any personal grudges had to be set aside upon entering its door. The hotel didn't condone bloodshed, and any physical brawls had to be taken outside.
However, there were always arrogant fools trying to test its boundaries. The last person to flaunt their prestigious background and cause a scene at the hotel was sentenced to penal labor. Not only that, their entire family was erased from existence.
Since then, all guests had stuck to the rules and dared not to challenge the hotel's authority. Yet, Wynter hadn't only violated the rules by wandering to the second floor, but she had also taken the offensive.
Kenton could barely stifle a laugh at the thought. So what if Wynter was the Quinnell family's descendant? After all, Shane had been driven out last time. Kenton couldn't wait to see Wynter make a fool of herself.
Realizing the same thing, Reuben swiftly stepped in front of Wynter and implored the figure of higher standing.
His deep, resonated voice hinted at a considerable recovery. "This child wasn't aware of Serenity Hotel's rules. Please show her some mercy,"
While Wynter believed that she wouldn't face consequences, she couldn't ignore the murmurs around her. "Mr. Whitman Senior should understand that Serenity Hotel's rules are absolute," one commented.
"Indeed. Even if you provide compensation, the hotel will refuse to accept them. Besides, that person was driven out last time, too. And it looks like the Quinnell family's daughter is headed for the same fate. Look, the guards are moving..." another remarked.
As the guards were ready to spring into action, they suddenly heard a deep voice come through their earpiece.
"Leave her alone. Stick to your duties," the voice ordered. Instantly, the security guards stopped in their tracks and remained still.
Seeing that, Kenton became agitated. He had heard that Serenity Hotel's personnel were expert martial artists, yet none of them had moved to drive Wynter out.
Could the hotel's owner have turned a blind eye to Wynter's ignorance for Reuben's sake?
The other guests shared Kenton's bewilderment. At that moment, they started to believe that Wynter had been pardoned because of Reuben's sincere plea, so Serenity Hotel's personnel had been instructed not to
take action against her. It seemed that luck was on Wynter's side.
Having learned about Serenity Hotel's rules, Yvette had plotted to lead Wynter into breaking one of them. She was told that the Quinnells and Whitmans were at odds, yet she never expected Reuben to plead for Wynter's mercy.
