Chloe raised an eyebrow, smirking at the chubby lady, "Oh really? So you believe her over me, huh? Where's all this trust coming from?"
Makenna frowned, "I just saw you standing at the door of the room with my husband..."
"And what exactly did your husband and I do? Did he touch me? Did I approach him? Or what exactly happened at the door?"
Makenna was adamant, "It definitely wasn't that woman!"
"And why's that?"
"Because I remember the voice of the person who called me. It was that woman's voice! If she was the other woman, why would she call me over to catch her?"
Rhoda gritted her teeth, not feeling any better despite Makenna's clarification. Her face was chalky white.
Dorthy was flabbergasted! "Rhoda, you... you are shameless! You're so annoying! Just because Ms. Summers asked you to resign, you hold such a grudge against her?!"
Rhoda stood there, at a loss for words!
Meanwhile, Makenna brushed it off, stormed forward and grabbed Chloe's hand, "You look like the kind of woman who loves to seduce men!"
Chloe laughed coldly, "And what makes you think that?"
"You have a great figure, you're beautiful, you're decked out in designer clothes and you're wearing a fancy ring on your finger! You look like a woman who's kept by a man! How else could you afford this lavish lifestyle?"
Chloe closed her eyes for a moment, her chest heaving as she took a deep breath.
This was too much! What a world, filled with all sorts of people!
"What's going on here?"
Chloe took a few deep breaths, about to speak, when she heard a stern voice. Looking up, it was the hotel manager, with Fritz beside him.
Room service staff and other employees had gathered around; some tried to slip away at the sight of the manager but had no chance, and they could only stay put.
Seeing the manager, Dorthy stepped forward. He glanced at her and asked sternly,
"What happened?"
Dorthy threw Rhoda a fierce look, "Rhoda, unhappy with being asked to resign by Ms. Summers, called Makenna to catch Mr. Austin in the act, and then decided that Ms. Summers was the other woman, causing a scene here!"
"Rhoda called her?" The manager frowned at Rhoda.
Rhoda avoided his gaze!
Makenna suddenly rushed up to the manager, looking up at the tall man, "Are you the manager of this hotel?"
"Yes."
Makenna scoffed, "Great, I'd love to hear your explanation! This woman, using her professional status to seduce my husband, how are you going to deal with this?!"
The manager glanced at Chloe, furrowed his brow, but still responded respectfully. "Makenna, could there be a misunderstanding? How could Ms. Summers possibly be what you're describing?"
