Seeing him drink so much wine made her frown.
"Xander, why, why are you drinking wine? Aren't you going to drive later?" Only this time, Scarlett realized that they were both drunk. Now, she felt her head a little dizzy, and her whole body started to feel hot.
Xander put down his wine glass. With his gentle eyes, he stared at Scarlett.
"Babe... We'll stay here!"
Instantly Scarlett coughs after hearing they will stay at this hotel.
"W-Why? We don't need to stay here, Xander! You can ask Logan to pick us up..." Scarlet said, panicked. She wasn't prepared to stay at this hotel because she didn't bring anything, and right now, she feels tipsy.
She feels her mind seem hazy. She realized this was the effect of the three huge glasses of wine she had consumed earlier. It would be awful if she got drunk and shared a room with Xander — she might do something unexpected and didn't want that to happen.
She emptied a glass of water in one gulp, trying to calm her mind.
"Ms. Riley, why are you so nervous? This isn't our first time staying at a hotel, is it?" Xander chuckled. "Besides, it's late. Logan must be asleep by now!" he said casually.
"This hour? No way! That was too early for a bodyguard to crash the bed, don't you think?" Scarlett glanced at her watch. It was only 9 PM "...are you kidding, right Xander!? Why is Logan sleeping at this time?"
ραпdα nᴏνa| сom "I'm not kidding. You can call Logan if you don't believe me!"
Scarlett was speechless, looking at how serious his expression was now.
'Why do I feel like this man is trying to trick me!? Are you tricking me, Xander?' She narrowed her eyes at him.
Before Scarlett could say something, Xander said, "Wait a minute. I'll call someone..." He got up from his chair and stood near the glass window. He stood there looking at the street outside while calling the hotel manager.
"I'll be staying here tonight. Prepare... My room!" He ordered. But the hotel manager on the other end immediately panicked. That made Xander frown.
"Sir, your room is unusable. Young Master Carter is currently using it..." The Hotel Manager didn't expect Mr. Xander Riley to be staying at the hotel tonight. Hence, he allowed Young Master Carter to use Mr. Xander's private room.
"WHAT! Since when did you give my room to someone else!? Did you forget the rules!? Kick him out!" He snapped, but a thought suddenly crossed his mind a second later.
"Sir, don't worry! I will immediately kick young master Carter..." The manager has no other choice. After all, it was Young Master Carter's fault, he already knew that the room belonged to his brother, but he still insisted on using it.
"Stop! You don't have to kick him out."
The hotel manager was shocked to hear that. He couldn't help but ask, "Sir, are you sure?"
"Yes! Prepare a room for me. No need for a presidential suite with two bedrooms, one bedroom is enough. You can call me when the room is ready..." He ordered. A faint smile appeared from the corner of Xander's lips when it crossed his mind; he shared a bed with Scarlett.
After Xander hung up the phone, he came back to the table and how shocked he was when he saw Scarlett sleeping with her head on the table.
'Is she really that drunk!?' Xander still remembered this girl had only drank three glasses of wine. 'Her tolerance for alcohol is low?'
Xander stood beside her for a moment and stared at her beautiful face. But before long, he was startled when his phone vibrated.
"Your room is ready, sir! I'll be waiting outside your VIP room." The hotel manager reported.
Xander carried her gently in princes style and left the VIP room. He saw the hotel manager was waiting for him.
"Lead the way!"
"Y-yes, Master..." The hotel manager was shocked when he saw a beautiful woman in Master Xander's arms. He had worked at this hotel for several years, and this was the first time he had seen Master Xander check in with a woman.
'Who's he?' The hotel manager thought as he walked beside Xander, and occasionally he stole a quick glance at the girl. He wanted to know her identity.
'This girl must be a famous person, right!?' He thought. There's no way Master Xander is dating an ordinary girl. Right? Whoever this girl is, she must be a public figure! Or the daughter of the old money in this country.
After a few glances, he still couldn't recognize the girl. He never saw her. This girl wasn't a celebrity, but she looked familiar. It seemed he had seen her before, but where!? He forgot!
"If you still see my wife like that, I will not hesitate to punish you!" Xander said casually, but the words were enough to make the hotel manager shiver.
"S-Sir, I'm sorry..." The hotel manager stuttered. He immediately averted his gaze, but his mind was now filled with other questions.
'Mr. Xander Riley is married!? Since when!? Why is there no official announcement from the company?'
The hotel manager felt like asking, but seeing how tense Master Xander's face was, he forced himself not to ask — he had made a mistake and didn't want to anger him again.
As soon as the elevator opened, The hotel manager immediately walked toward the room and opened the door for him. "Sir, this is the best room available today..."
"It doesn't matter!" Xander said and entered the room.
"And, sorry, sir... For my mistake today." The hotel manager said while giving him a slight bow.
Xander stopped and turned to look at the hotel manager, "Tomorrow, I want you to explain why you gave my room to someone else! Do I make myself clear?"
"Y-Yes, sir!"
"Now, close the door!" Xander said.
The hotel manager stood in front of the room cursing himself. Now, he needs to visit Young Master Carter!
