Chapter 266


    Chapter 266


    Anastasia took a deep breath, gulped down a big swig of water, started the car and left the service


    area.


    As she passed a truck, Anastasia honked her horn intentionally. She loathed unfaithful guys but


    couldn’t do a thing about it, so she decided to honk, hoping to give them a scare and rattle their cages.


    Her honk did spook the couple in the truck; the guy shot a nervous nce upwards, only to see a car


    zooming onto the highway. At 3 a.m., Anastasia reached the Regal Palms Hotel in Crescent Bay. She


    stretched her limbs, feeling dog-tired, and ambled into the hotel.


    At this time, the front desk staff were snoozing. Anastasia gently rapped on the counter to wake them


    up. Seeing a customer, they sprang to life, asking, “Would you like to book a room?”


    “Could you tell me which room Mr. Herman Salstrom is staying in?” Anastasia said with a smile, “I’m his


    sister and need to drop off some clothes for him. I’ll be outta here once I’m done. I tried calling him, but


    he didn’t pick up, so I need your help.” Anastasia didn’t dare to say she was Herman’s wife as the front


    desk staff would surely think she was there to stir up trouble and wouldn’t reveal the guest’s


    information.


    The front desk staff eyed Anastasia carefully. They’d seen their fair share of troublemakers and weren’t


    about to let their guard down. “Sorry, our hotel policy prohibits disclosing guest information. You could


    try calling again, and if the guest agrees, we can let you go up.”


    “Alright.” Anastasia gave a fakeugh, changed her tack and said, “I’ll just leave the clothes here then.


    Could you pass them on to Mr. Salstrom?”


    After giving her instructions, she asked, “Could I use your restroom?” Heading towards the restroom,


    Anastasia actually lingered at the corner, waiting for the front desk staff to take the elevator up with her


    clothes before she checked which floor the elevator stopped at.

    The fifteenth floor. Herman was staying on the fifteenth floor.


    Anastasia immediately took the neighboring elevator up. When she got out, she just heard the front


    desk staff knocking on the door to deliver the clothes. The whole floor was dead quiet at thiste hour,


    and she could hear everything crystal clear. Anastasia peeked around the corner to check the staff’s


    location and got Herman’s room number. She wouldn’t have done something like this in the past, but


    now she was all over it. Love could make one super careful and jittery.


    Anastasia, hiding at the corner, overheard the conversation between Herman and the staff. Herman


    turned down the clothes delivery with an icy tone. Being woken up in the middle of the night would tick


    anyone off. Since Herman didn’t know these were from Anastasia, he simply mmed the door shut.


    Confused, the staff had no choice but to leave with the clothes.


    Only after they left did Anastasia step out from the corner and head to Herman’s room. Herman inside


    was a bit tipsy and had a headache. Being woken up like this put him in a really sour mood. He rubbed


    his temples, poured himself a ss of water, and was about to go back to sleep when the doorbell rang


    again.


    Herman’s anger red up instantly. He took a deep breath, turned back to open the door, and ready to


    give the hotel staff a piece of his mind. But when he saw who was at the door, he was stunned and his


    reprimand was stuck in his throat.


    Anastasia stood at the door, smiling, “Sir, need any special service?”


    Hermanughed, all his annoyance vanishing into thin air. He reached out, pulled Anastasia into the


    room and closed the door. Anastasia’s arrival was a pleasant surprise. He pinned her against the wall


    and kissed her passionately, lost in a fervent exchange of kisses.
