✿♡ JAZZLENE ♡✿"That's very good, darling, so you won't have to travel too far," Mommy commented after I told them—while we were having lunch—that I had changed my mind about doing my internship at La Vienna Hotel.Actually, I wasn't the only one who changed my mind among our friends. Violet was the first to reconsider. She mentioned that it would be more convenient to apply for internship at M-Power Hotel because not only is it closer, but it's also gaining recognition lately due to several appearances in the news and online, especially since its opening last month. It has even been featured in a well-known magazine.That's not all. Our school dean has been recommending M-Power Hotel to us now when looking for internship placements, rather than La Vienna Hotel. It seems our school coordinator has struck a partnership with M-Power to accept students from our school, so we shouldn't have much difficulty, especially since they select their applicants."Does that mean all of your friends

✧ADAM MEADOWS✧For over a week, I diligently worked on the documents required for my application as a personal driver for Jake, the founder of Crystal Empire, who ordered the assassination of my family. I couldn't use my real name; he or they would recognize me immediately and shut me out. So, I became Allen Ruz, an identity I crafted meticulously. I created a backstory with an impeccable track record, ensuring no one could question my credentials. Even though I'm applying for just a driver position, having a good record is necessary because he is well-known in the industry.Applying to him under this alias was the first step in my plan to uncover the truth. I know the truth that he's behind the crime, and if I wanted to, I could end him anytime. But I need to carefully plan every move to bring him and his family down without putting myself at risk or being pursued by the law.I passed through an agency where I was interviewed before being sent to the mansion of the Crystal Family.

✿♡ JAZZLENE ♡✿"Why are you late, Jazzlene?" Sasha asked me sternly when I arrived at the front desk. Leigh was already there since she's my duty partner today, while Violet was assigned to the bar. Brianna, another regular employee at the front desk, was also present. She's much kinder than Sasha. Brianna is always calm and speaks gently. Even when she gives us instructions, she does so with a polite request and a warm smile, making it a pleasure to follow her orders. Unlike Sasha, who is quite the opposite.But yes, I was late."I caught on traffic," I replied curtly, not wanting to engage in a long discussion. I didn't want to worsen my already bad mood, which started last night when Adam upset me."Traffic? You should have left earlier. That way, even if you encountered traffic, you wouldn't be late," Sasha continued, her tone full of reprimand.I closed my eyes tightly and took a deep breath to calm myself. Leigh gently tapped my shoulder, probably noticing how irritated I was, t

✿♡ JAZZLENE ♡✿I was aware of what happened after Adam and I showered together. We lay down on the bed after I dried my hair using the hair dryer he bought for me here. I was aware that nearly an hour later, he carefully got up to answer his phone, which had started ringing. I was aware that he left the penthouse after taking the call.He left without saying goodbye, probably assuming I was already asleep. But I wasn't. My eyes were closed, but my mind was awake, so I felt everything. He was gone for almost an hour. Feeling a bit dizzy from the alcohol, I remained lying on the bed alone.When he returned an hour later, he lay back down beside me on the bed. I could still feel his embrace from behind, and we stayed like that until we both fell asleep.The next morning, he woke up before me. I found out because his side of the bed was empty when I tried to reach for him. He was already out of the room by the time I opened my eyes.Despite a slight headache from the hangover, I pushed my

✿♡ JAZZLENE ♡✿I STOOD AT THE FRONT DESK, my fingers trembling slightly as I tapped on the keyboard, searching desperately for the reservation. The couple in front of us looked increasingly impatient, and the woman’s face was turning a deep shade of red. She was yelling, her voice echoing across the huge lobby and drawing stares from other guests.Not only am I feeling flustered, but so is Violet, as we're the only ones manning the front desk right now. Brianna is on her day off, and our other regular receptionist, who's with us, has been in and out of the restroom since earlier because it's the first day of her period, and she's in considerable discomfort. She needs to change her napkin frequently due to heavy flow. As a result, Violet and I are currently bearing the brunt of the workload. It's also our first time encountering a guest who doesn't seem to grasp the concept of 'CALM'. Despite Violet's repeated attempts to reassure her and ask her to wait for our receptionist, she doesn
