Chapter 219
Aurelia immediately turned to look.
A man in a pinstripe suit was walking slowly down the corridor.
He looked to be in his late 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 glanced down and immediately revealed a surprised expression.
However, she quickly regained her composure and smiled.
“Hello, sir. I wonder if you have any upcoming events. Are you free for us to discuss a change of date?”
“Events? Not really. I just think the scenery here is nice, and my fiancée likes it too. I 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 a large 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.
I noticed you have a lot of things for the event. If the setup isn’t completed 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 I 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, I don’t see the point in collaborating. Please refund the deposit, and I’ll ensure our

finance department acknowledges the transaction.”
The manager was taken aback.
“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 particular event, the hotel would only be paid a basic rental fee.
Even if the place was reserved for a week, it would not compare 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, I 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.

consider helping you out.”
Aurelia smiled.
“No, thank you. How can I 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.
