Aurelia immediately turned to look.


    Aman in a pinstripe suit was walking slowly down the corridor.


    He looked to be in histe thirties, with an ordinary appearance.


    His demeanor was a blend of maturity and a hint of masculinity.


    Although he seemed mature, he seemed self-assured and braggadocious.


    The man smirked.


    “Hello, heard you were looking for me?”


    He extended his hand towards Aurelia.


    Out of courtesy, she shook his hand, inadvertently brushing against the ring on his finger.


    She nced down and immediately revealed a surprised expression.


    However, she quickly regained herposure and smiled.


    “Hello, sir. | wonder if you have any uing events. Are you free for us to discuss a change of date?”


    “Events? Not really. | just think the scenery here is nice, and my fiancée likes it too. | thought of bringing her here for a visit when


    we have time. Any problem with that?”


    The man spread his hands like he was domineering big shots one would see on television.


    Aurelia was unfamiliar with the world of the wealthy and didn’t understand why someone would


    reserve such arge banquet hall just to please a fiancée.


    However, she had a hunch about the true motives behind this series of events.


    agree to


    The man chuckled, “If you really want it, you can plead with me. If I’m in a good mood, I''ll help you out. | noticed you have a lot of


    things for the event. If the setup isn’tpleted on time, I’m afraid next week’s ceremony will be ruined.”


    Aurelia looked up at him.


    “Sir, you seem to know what I’m trying to do quite well. You sure seem prepared, so | don’t think


    there’s a need for further discussion.”


    The man’s smile froze for a moment.


    Ignoring his attempts to charm her, Aurelia turned to the manager.


    “We had an agreement. Even if the full payment hadn’t been made, we were following the normal procedures. Yet, your event


    hall changed its stance.


    “If that’s the case, | don’t see the point in coborating. Please refund the deposit, and I''ll ensure our.


    Chapter 219


    finance department acknowledges the transaction.”


    The manager was taken aback.N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    “You''re not holding the event here? You only have a week to find another venue.”


    Aurelia stared at him, and he averted his gaze guiltily.


    Indeed, the manager knew that Aurelia wouldn’t be able to change the venue in time and was trying to force her to continue the


    event here.


    Aurelia continued, “You needn’t worry about it. If this gentleman and his fiancée like it here so much, they can have it.”


    If the venue was not used for a particr event, the hotel would only be paid a basic rental fee.


    Even if the ce was reserved for a week, it would notpare with what Aurelia offered to pay the hotel.


    The manager paled and said awkwardly, “Ms. Simmons, we have cooperated many times before. There’s no need to make


    things so awkward.”


    Aurelia looked at him.


    “Dragging this on further might make it awkward indeed. Fortunately, | had reserved enough time if something like this happens,


    so it’s alright.”


    The manager’s eyes widened and he was at a loss for words.


    The man was displeased and frowned.


    “Ms. Simmons, you don’t have to be so stubborn. I’m not an unreasonable person. If you beg me, | can consider helping you


    out.”


    Aurelia smiled.


    “No, thank you. How can | possibly interfere with you and your fiancé’s hobby? It’s rare to find a man who spends so willingly for


    their partners. Your fiancé must be really touched, isn’t she?”


    The man was instantly rendered speechless.


    He was a rather smart man and immediately knew that Aurelia was mocking him, saying that his fiancé only loved him for his


    money.


    She left politely and told the others to leave before her.


    She would take care of the rest.


    As she left the venue, the manager kept calling Aurelia, but she didn’t pick up.


    She would never work with this hotel again.


    Negotiating with the man would be impossible as well because he was merely stalling.


    In truth, that man was Kimberly’s fiancé.


    Thanks to Kimberly’s habit of sharing everything about her life on social media, she captured the man’s ring in her post.


    Though it was hard to identify someone with just a ring, the hotel manager mentioned that the man’s fiancé was currently in the


    hospital, which matched perfectly with Kimberly’s current state.
