Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 78

Golden Ocean Community was located at Middle Spring Road and near the business district, Since the housing price in Birmingham had soared in recent years, the price of Anna‘s two–story villa in this community had risen to about ten million dollars

After getting out of the taxi, Anna went to her villa and rang the doorbell, Soon, the door was opened and she saw a middle–aged woman who was in her fifties,

The woman looked at Anna and asked in confusion, “Miss, may I ask who you are looking for?”

Anna glanced into the house and an idea came into her mind. Then she asked calmly. “Excuse me, are you going to sell this house?”

“Sell the house? You are a real estate agent? My master won‘t sell the house. You may ask someone else if they have the intention to sell their houses,” the woman said and shook her head.

“Your host? Isn‘t this your house?” Anna asked, “I heard that many old people here wanted to sell their houses in the city and moved to the countryside after they retired.”

“Haha, if only I could have such a big house. I‘m not the owner of the house. I‘m just a servant here,” the woman chuckled and said,

“May I know your master‘s phone number? Maybe he wants to sell the house. I‘ll give you a small gift if you tell me how I can contact him.” Anna said as she rummaged through her handbag and took out a bottle of colorful candies. “Look, this is the gift.”

Seeing the candies, the woman was overjoyed and said, “My granddaughter likes candies of this brand best”

But the next moment, she sighed. “Miss, I‘m sorry that I can‘t tell you my master‘s phone number. My master is an actor. But to tell you the truth, this house is not his. Although he is rich, he can‘t afford to

buy the house here.”

Then she suddenly lowered her voice and said, “This house is in the name of the daughter of the Gabriel family. She let my master live here.”

Hearing this, Anna was shocked.

Allie is so bold. She actually keeps an actor as her toy boy! But why does she let her toy boy live in my house?

“I see,” Anna said with a smile and put the bottle of candies into the woman‘s hand. “Aunt, please take it. Besides, could you tell me who your master is? I‘m curious about him. I promise I‘ll keep it a secret.”

The woman accepted the candies happily and said mysteriously. “His name is Herbert. He is not popular and always plays supporting roles in TV plays. You may have never heard of him.”

Anna indeed had never heard of this actor. She memorized his name, thanked the woman, and then left.

Chapter 78 Her Performance…

Since the villa was occupied, she had to postpone her plan to move.

On the way back home, Anna kept thinking about what Allie had done and thought that Allie was so ridiculous.

Allie always wants to marry a rich and powerful man in the upper class. She has had a rich boyfriend but still secretly keeps a toyboy. If her boyfriend knew what she had done, she will definitely come to no good end.

After leaving Golden Ocean Community, Anna went to work and asked John for a summary of the hotel‘s performance since she began working here.

“Miss Gabriel, here is a summary of the hotel‘s performance in the past three months,” John said.

On the whole, the hotel‘s performance was below Anna‘s expectations and the turnover was still far from what she had promised Wayne.

Looking at the data, Anna sighed and glanced at the plan of the centennial celebration on her desk. When she saw the prizes for the lucky draw part, she suddenly got a new idea.

“John, show me the budget sheet for the celebration. By the way, we haven‘t bought the prizes for the lucky draw, right?” she said. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Not yet,” John answered.

“Okay. Don‘t buy any prizes except for those for the third prize. As for the other prizes, I have another plan.”

John was confused. “Miss Gabriel, the celebration will be held next week. Do you have to modify the plan? I‘m afraid we don‘t have enough time now.”

“I‘ll take the blame if anything goes wrong,” Anna said briefly and firmly. If she didn‘t fight for herself and failed to keep her promise, she would be fired soon.

At night, Anna searched the list of popular male stars on the Internet.

Soon, she saw a list called Top 100 Most Popular Male Artists.

She didn’t care much about the truth of the ranking and picked some artists whose fans were willing to spend a lot of money on them.

Anna looked at the photos of the artists with her eyes shining with excitement. She could imagine the spectacular increase in the turnover of the hotel.

If she hadn‘t gone to Golden Ocean Community and known that Allie kept a starlet as her toy boy, she wouldn‘t have got a new idea about the celebration plan.

Nowadays, the fan economy drove a big part of the entertainment sector. As long as she could take advantage of it, she would definitely be able to reach her performance goal. It could be said that her performance in the following days was entirely up to it.

In Seriel International Grand Hotel.

Wayne was about to go to bed when his phone suddenly rang and the message from Anna popped up.

He read the message and called her back directly

“You… you haven‘t gone to bed yet?” Anna said on the other end of the line.

Chapter 78 Her Performance

Hearing her voice, Wayne could feel that she was trying to suppress her excitement “You texted me just to know whether I‘ve gone to bed?” he asked in reply

“I want to ask you something about work. I was afraid that it would wake you up if I called you, so I texted you,” Anna said.

“You want to modify the planning of the celebration?” “Yes, but there won‘t be many changes. I just want to modify the lucky draw part.” “There‘s only less than a week before the celebration. Are you sure you can make it?”

“As long as you approve my proposal, I‘ll start to implement the new plan at once. I can guarantee that the new plan will be far more effective in stimulating consumption than the previous one,” Anna said.

“What if you didn‘t make it?” Wayne asked. “If I failed, I would resign.”

“You know you will be fired if you can‘t achieve your performance goal, so you are making every possible effort to boost the hotel‘s turnover now, right?” Wayne said. He was clear about what Anna was thinking. “And even if you can‘t make it, you will be fired at most and not have to clean up the mess.”

Anna cleared her throat and said awkwardly, “I admit that what I did is for myself. But I also did it for the hotel‘s performance. If my plan succeeds, I won‘t be fired and the hotel‘s performance will be better. Isn‘t it good?”

Anna was eloquent and clever but Wayne still could see through her easily. Both of them knew clearly about the risk of Anna‘s plan.

However, Wayne still approved her proposal.

Actually, he did not know why he approved such a risky proposal. Maybe it was because he hoped that Anna could have an opportunity to continue to work at Carousel Hotel.

“Thank you. I will try my best,” Anna said.

“It‘s meaningless for me to express your gratitude verbally. How about inviting me to a meal after the celebration?” Wayne said.

Anna agreed without hesitation.

After hanging up the phone, Wayne drew the curtains and the bright moonlight came into the room. He suddenly wanted to go back to Birmingham very much.

Before going to bed, he called Gabe.

“Tell the Finance Department of the Carousel Hotel tomorrow morning to increase twenty percent of the budget for the celebration.”
