Chapter 168


    Emmanuel fearlessly stood his ground, arguing convincingly and emerging


    victorious in the debate over his gender with Mackenzie.


    However, his triumph did not grant him the respect a man deserved. Instead,


    he had to run errands and arrange for their stay at a hotel outside the vige.


    “Sir, do you have any avable rooms?” Emmanuel asked the middle–aged,


    frugal–looking innkeeper.


    The man nced at Emmanuel and then at Mackenzie standing by the


    entrance. He whispered, “Young man, just the two of you?”


    “Yeah, that’s right.” Emmanuel nodded in confusion.


    I’m here to book a room, not to partake in any illicit activities. Why does the


    innkeeper need to speak in such a suggestive tone?


    Though the innkeeper couldn’t see Mackenzie’s face, he couldn’t help but


    notice her impable figure.


    He discreetly swallowed his saliva before answering, “Well, young man, our


    single room is priced at ny–eight, while our double room will cost eight


    hundred and eighty–eight. Both rooms need to be vacated by noon the


    following day.”


    Hearing that, Emmanuel was stunned. “Why is the double room so much


    more expensive than the single room?”


    “Well, the double room has arge round bed.”


    “Arge round bed justifies a tenfold increase in price?” Emmanuel furrowed


    his brows. “What about the size of the room and other amenities?”


    “Well, it’s the same!”


    The innkeeper was perturbed by Emmanuel’s questioning. Is he really that


    foolish? If he requests a double room, I’ll offer him additional services. When


    thedy enters, I’ll conveniently im that there are no more single rooms


    -avable. That way, he can share a room with her and indulge in the night.


    “I’ll have two single rooms then!”


    Emmanuel usted no time in making his decision, deterred by the significant


    orice differeAY


    The innkeader wondered it Emmanuel was oblivious to the opportunity to


    shore a room with the attractive woman behind him at an affordable rate.


    Although the innkeeper wanted to maximize his profits, he also wanted


    Emmanuel to enjoy the night. Hence, he tried hinting once again. “Very well,


    please present your ID. I’ll need one ID per room!”


    Unfortunately, it seemed Emmanuel hadn’t grasped the hidden meaning


    behind the innkeeper’s words. He simply turned around and asked Mackenzie


    for her ID card.


    What on earth is wrong with this guy? Is he impotent or just broke? It’s not


    every day that such a beautiful woman goes out with him and he still insists


    on booking two single rooms.


    The innkeeper, who had been in the business for ten years, waspletely


    bewildered by Emmanuel’s actions. In all his years, he had never


    encountered such a situation.


    If that beauty is willing to sleep with me, I’ll not hesitate to pay eight thousand


    and eight hundred, let alone eight hundred and eighty–eight. Spending a


    night with a woman like her would be the pinnacle of my life.


    “Do you have a room?” Mackenzie asked when she saw Emmanuel rush out


    of the entrance.


    “Yes, there are rooms avable. We need one ID card per room, so I’ll need


    yours as well.”


    Mackenzie didn’t say anything and simply handed her ID card over to him.


    Emmanuel’s eyes briefly scanned Mackenzie’s ID, and he couldn’t help but


    notice that her photo exuded the same stunning beauty, untouched by the


    need for makeup.


    “All right, we’ll have two rooms,” Emmanuel said as he entered the hotel


    again and casually handed over the ID cards.


    As Mackenzie entered the hotel behind him, the innkeeper couldn’t help but


    stare at her exceptional beauty.


    The two of them don’t look like siblings. Doesn’t this man have any lustful


    thoughts? Has he lost his desires at such a young age?

    “Here are your room cards.”


    Despite wanting to make money from their stay, he had no choice but to


    However, Emmanuel finally noticed the innkeeper’s puzzled gaze and unusual


    behavior.


    He was enlightened when he took the room cards.


    Hold on, tonight is the perfect opportunity to share a room with Mackenzie.


    Why didn’t I think of that? Was I trying to save money?


    Emmanuel, who had been married to Mackenzie for a long time, began to


    wonder if she deliberately entrusted him with the room booking to provide


    him with a chance to seize the rare opportunity.
