Chapter 37
It was late at night.
The corridors of the grand hotel were covered with woolen carpets, which could kill the sounds of footsteps.
The walls of the corridor were inlaid with brown full-length mirrors every ten steps. Wendy Lim, dressed in a waitress uniform, was doing up the neckline of her shirt in front of a mirror.
She straightened the wrinkles on her uniform and took over the tray from another waitress next to her, "Jane, thank you so much! You've offered me such a good chance to make money again. When I get the money, I'll treat you!"
Wendy Lim emphasized the word 'again' because Jane was the colleague who recommended the part-time job on the cruise to her last time.
Last week, Jane asked her if she wanted to do a similar job. It only took two days on the weekends, and the pay was higher than the job on the cruise. Wendy Lim couldn't miss such a good chance, so she joined without hesitation.
"Hey, pray don't mention such a thing!" The female colleague called Jane waved her hands.
Wendy Lim smiled and continued to approach to the appointed room.
When they arrived at the door of the guest room, Jane stopped her. "Wendy, I have a stomachache now, and I want to go to the toilet. You can get in first and I will be back soon!"
"Okay!" Wendy Lim nodded without doubt.
She was afraid that the guests would be unhappy if no waitress came, so she reached out to turn the door handle. She did not notice Jane's guilty eyes.
Wendy Lim walked in with a tray in her hand. She did her due duty as usual, but the atmosphere inside was different from yesterday. It seemed that there was not a business meeting and no need to serve tea or water.
In the outer room, several enterprises bosses were sitting on the sofa and their clothes were in a mess. Some of them only wore bath towels, with one or two women in the same dress as Wendy Lim sitting next to them. They were doing some really embarrassing things...
The man's groan and the women's laughter were quite obscene.
Wendy Lim moved her eyes away from the obscene scene.
She wondered if she had got in the wrong room. She was going to turn around and get out, but the tray in her hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the champagne and red wine were smashed on the carpet. The man on the sofa at the very edge grasped her wrist and looked at her with bedroom eyes.
Wendy Lim had experienced such kind of thing. She frowned and wanted to pull back her hand.
The man grasped her wrist tightly. When she was pulling back very hard, the door of the guest room was suddenly kicked open and four or five people rushed in and said, " Police, don't move! Routine check!" A large group of people in the lobby of the hotel attracted lots of onlookers.
The onlookers stared at them in an unfriendly way. Wendy Lim could hear some bad words from time to time, such as " prostitution"," wh*ring " etc.
Wendy Lim only saw this on the TV news. At that time, she couldn't agree with those simply dressed girls whose faces were pixelated, but she never thought that she would be one of them.
Wendy Lim felt cold from top to toe, and she had never been so scared before.
She wanted to explain but no one would listen to her. All the people in that room would be sent to the police station to make a record.
Like the person in front of her, Wendy Lim lowered her head and was taken out of the hotel by the policeman. A familiar figure flashed in her eyes.
Wendy Lim looked over excitedly and saw the man's tall figure and clearly defined face.
When she opened her mouth, she suddenly remembered that the man had passed by her in the bar not long ago, and he sneered at her at the door of her home. Then she shut up and did not make any sounds.
The police behind Wendy Lim pushed her and then taken her to the police car.
Farr Chiang looked back at the revolving door and said with hesitation, "Mr. Hogg, the woman looks like Miss Lim..."
Charlie Hogg frowned and hung up the phone in his hand when he heard Farr Chiang's words.
