Chapter 891 To Ask for an Explanation
Chapter 891 To Ask for an Explanation
It was bright and sunny. Amanda walked along the street for so long, and she felt her feet a bit hurting
before she went back to the hotel by cab.
The cab stopped in front of the entrance of the hotel. Amanda paid the fares and got out of the cab.
She walked into the lobby and met Lindsay, who was walking over to her. Lindsay smiled, “Ms. Flores.”
Amanda was surprised that Lindsay would be in the hotel.
“Are you coming to me for something of the work?” she asked.
Lindsay smiled, “No, I just want to invite you to watch a big show, Ms. Flores.”
Amanda's heart skipped one beat. Lindsay was not easy to deal with, and she was good at disguising
herself. She had been disguised herself as a pure-minded person in front of Amanda back then.
However, Lindsay wanted her life in the end!
Amanda had to keep an eye on Lindsay!
“I'm not familiar with you,” Amanda refused.
Who knew if it was her conspiracy?
“Strangers the first time, acquaintances the next. Besides you also have cooperation with our company
and we may consider being 'a family'. You’re new to City B. There must be a lot of inconveniences
you've experienced, and there's no place for you to spend time. So I invite you to relax,” Lindsay took
two steps closer to Amanda in her high heels, and she was only half a meter apart from Amanda, “You
seem to be wary of me, Ms. Flores.”
“We're not foes. Why would I be wary of you?” Amanda smiled faintly, “Are you going to do something
to me since you invited me passionately?”
“I think you may have misunderstood, Ms. Flores,” Lindsay explained, “I'm sincerely inviting you, but
you keep rejecting me and seems to be mistrusting me.”
Amanda gave a laugh, “I don't even trust myself.”
How would Amanda trust others?
How would she trust the person who harmed her back then?
It suddenly occurred to Amanda. Could it be that Lindsay wanted to buy her off this time or to harm her
this time?
Amanda thought, ‘But Lindsay has no reason to do this either.’
Amanda was negotiating a tie-up with J&Y Group on behalf of RM Group.
“I still have things to deal with,” after saying that, Amanda took a step towards the elevator.
“Ms. Flores.”
Lindsay turned around and looked at her, “I want to tell you, don't try to think about something you
shouldn't think about.”
“What do you mean by that?” Amanda could not understand her words.
“You don't assume that I didn't know you purposely got close to Stanford at the charity party that night,”
Lindsay looked frosty, “Anyone who covets him will come to no good end.”
It dawned on Amanda that Lindsay referred to what happened at the entrance of the party that day.
Lindsay had seen that Amanda purposely pretended to twist her foot and stumbled into Stanford's
arms.
“I didn't think about it before your reminder. I think Mr. James does look good, and he's a man of
condition. I kinda like him,” she smiled, “Mr. James is not married to you, so I have a reason to fight for
my happiness, isn’t it?”
Lindsay's face turned white with rage, “You're getting far too cheeky!”
“Mr. James and I are single. How come I can't pursue him? Why would I be too cheeky?” she
deliberately took her phone, “How about we call Mr. James and ask him if I can pursue him?”
“You...” Lindsay pointed at Amanda, and she was exasperated instead of being arrogant. Amanda’s
attitude was going too far from her expectations.
“I wonder if Mr. James knows what you've done,” Amanda pretended to make a phone call, and
Lindsay rushed over to her and knocked the phone out of her hand. The phone fell to the ground, and
the screen of the phone cracked.
Amanda stood still, lowered her head, and looked at the phone on the ground with a cracked screen.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, “I just bought the phone not long ago.”
“How much is it?” Lindsay took her wallet out from her bag, “I'll compensate you for it.”
“I don't need your compensation. Just pick it up and hand it over to me,” Amanda pulled a long face.
“Humph,” Lindsay refused, “I won't pick it up for you!”
Lindsay turned around and left the hotel after saying that.
Amanda bent down and picked the phone up. She looked at the cracked screen without showing any
expressions on her face. She did not go upstairs, walked to the reception desk and asked the hotel
receptionist, “Is there any surveillance camera in the hotel lobby?”
The receptionist said, “Yes, there are surveillance cameras in the lobby.”
She took out the cash from her purse and put it on the marble-top reception desk, “I just had a
conversation with that woman. Take a screen recording of the surveillance video and send it to my
phone.”
“This...”
“I'm a guest staying in this hotel, and the woman broke my phone in the hotel. I want to have the video
as my proof, can't I?” Amanda suddenly became solemn.
There was a rule in the hotel that the employees could not leak the company matters to anyone. The
receptionist picked up the phone, “I'll ask the manager.”
Amanda was waiting for her.
Soon the manager went over to them, “What's going on?”
The receptionist had seen the scene that just happened and said, “There was a lady who had a conflict
with our guest and broke the phone of our guest, so she wanted to have our surveillance video as
proof.”
The manager thought for a moment and said, “I'm sorry, miss. Our hotel has rules that we can't leak the
hotel matters to anyone, but since the lady involved broke your phone, I think we should provide you
with the video as your evidence. Please wait a moment, and I'll have someone take a screen recording
of the surveillance video and send it to you.”
Amanda politely said, “Thank you.”
The manager gave a smile, “We should protect the interests of our guests.”
The manager picked up the landline phone on the reception desk and made a call. When he waited for
the call to be connected, he looked at Amanda, “Miss, please leave your phone number to us.”
The receptionist took a paper and a pen.
Amanda took the paper and the pen from the receptionist and wrote her phone number down.
She handed it over to the manager after she finished writing. The manager took a look at it, and the call
got through at the same time. He raised his head to look at Amanda, “When did it happen?”
“It has just happened,” Amanda replied.
The manager raised his hand to tell the time and said, “Take a surveillance screen recording of a clip of
two ladies clashing in the lobby between twelve and one o'clock and then send it to the phone number
of 135********.”
The manager hung up the call after the person on another end of the phone answered him. He asked,
“Is there anything else I can do for you?”
Amanda shook her head and said, “Nothing more. Thank you.”
She received a message on her phone shortly after, and she clicked the link to watch the video on the
browser.
She took her phone and got out of the hotel. She went to the J&Y Group by cab.
Soon she arrived at the J&Y Group building. She paid the fares, got out of the cab, and walked into the
building.
J&Y Group and RM Group were in a partnership, and she was the representative of RM Group and
was doing business with J&Y Group. The receptionist held a polite smile when she saw Amanda
walked towards the reception desk.
"I'm coming for Mr. James," Amanda said faintly.
The receptionist smiled and said alright. She made a room-to-room call connected to the CEO's office,
and soon Stanford picked up the call.
“What's the matter?”
“Ms. Flores requests to meet you.”
It escaped him for a moment, or Stanford did not expect she would come to him at this time since they
had met at noon, so he asked, “Which Ms. Flores are you referring to?”
“The representative of RM Group, Simona Flores.”
Stanford gently lowered his eyes, “Let her come to my office.”
The receptionist put down the phone, “Ms. Flores, please go in. Mr. James is in his office."
Amanda nodded to her and stepped towards the elevator, soon she got into the elevator and then
arrived at the floor where Stanford's office was.
The elevator stopped, and the door opened. Amanda got out of the elevator and walked towards
Stanford's office. She raised her hand and knocked on the door when she reached the office door.
She opened the door and walked into the office after hearing “come in” from the office.
Stanford raised his head and closed the document file he was reading after he heard something. He
leaned back in his office chair, “Ms. Flores, you came to me, is the planning scheme completed?”
“I said I'll complete it within a month, and it's still not the deadline yet,” she drew up a chair in the front Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
of the table and sat down, “Mr. James, I came to you today to ask for an explanation from you.”
“Alright, tell me,” Stanford raised the corners of his lips with interest, but he looked frosty and indifferent
and seemed to be unsympathetic.
