Willow looked at the massive crowd of reporters and wondered why there were so many, given that Mio Osborne wasn’t in the entertainnt industry and not particularly famous online.
Could it be that Sumr’s scandal had already broken online?
If that’s the case, that would be perfect.
Compared to Henry Stanton, reporters are even more terrifying.
Sumr is dood this ti!
She and Henry found the hotel lobby manager together, and Henry imdiately demanded, "We need to go upstairs, give us an elevator card."
— The Crestfall Grand Hotel’s elevators can only be operated by soone with a room card and an elevator card.
The lobby manager saw they weren’t guests and apologized, "I’m sorry, gentlen, but guest information is confidential, you can’t go up."
"Why can’t I go up?" Henry demanded angrily, "My daughter is in your hotel, and I can’t even go see her?"
"This..." The lobby manager looked troubled.
At that mont, a woman’s voice sounded: "Give the elevator card."
Both Willow and Henry turned their heads simultaneously, and in the next instant, Willow’s eyes lit up, and she imdiately stepped forward.
"Mrs. Stone!"
Susan Stone nodded towards Willow, then repeated, "Elevator card."
The hotel was under the Knight Group, and the lobby manager recognized Susan imdiately, not daring to stop her, and respectfully handed over the elevator card.
The three of them entered the elevator, and anwhile, the reporters broke through the security periter. Unable to access the elevator, they simply took the stairs through the fire escape.
Inside the elevator.
Willow, looking worried, clung to Susan’s arm, "Mrs. Stone, do you think anything happened to Sumr?"
Susan’s expression was not pleasant.
After she decided to choose Willow as her daughter-in-law, she didn’t want to ddle in Sumr’s affairs. She wanted to ignore Willow’s ssage but kept thinking of Luna’s face. After much consideration, she ca.
If Sumr was coerced, she could help get justice, but if Sumr was willing... she might as well take a picture to show her foolish son what kind of woman he fancies.
— No one knows a son better than his mother, and she had long guessed Damian’s interest in Sumr.
Next to her, Henry was trembling, too afraid to speak.
Susan Stone had co; how could he suppress the news now?
Damian would surely find out about this.
It seed the only thing he could do was slap Sumr when he got up there, to avoid being implicated.
However, the three of them didn’t know that Sumr and Damian were sitting in front of the hotel’s surveillance computer.
Sumr, watching the three in the elevator, frowned perplexedly, "Why are Henry Stanton and Willow, and your mother all here? Do they know Claire Woodward and Mio Osborne?"
"I don’t know either." Damian looked equally mystified.
He stood up and said, "It’s about ti, let’s go take a look too."
"Okay." Sumr stood up as well, but in her haste, she tripped over the leg of a stool and fell towards Damian.
Damian reacted quickly, catching Sumr in his arms.
Sumr’s lips brushed against Damian’s collarbone, causing her face to turn red. She imdiately jumped away from him, lowering her head in apology, "Sorry, I didn’t an to."
— He wished Sumr had done it on purpose.
But of course, Damian wouldn’t say that out loud. He pulled a sly smile, chuckled faintly, and said teasingly, "No need to explain, the law permits you to do so."
"???"
