Chapter 20
The concierge was first intimidated by Janet’s gaze.
But then he quickly remembered what Hellen said to him on the phone.
“Put her in the basement! That’s what she deserves!” Hellen said fiercely. “In Riverside Pack, she will
always be a lowly maid. Let this be a reminder to her of what she truly is!”
This hotel was funded by the Diaz, so the concierge obeyed everything Hellen said without question.
Plus, he also wasn’t very fond of this former Luna personally.
A few years back, he once saw how Janet kneeled down and wiped the floor. She seemed more
demeaning than a lowly maid!
There’s no way she deserved to stay in a fancy suite with the Alphas on the top floor now.
“Yes. This is your room.” The concierge raised his chin and replied arrogantly, “If you don’t like it, you
can go stay with the maids. You should remember where that is.”
He crackled a laugh and walked away.
Janet sneered internally and stepped into the room.
She turned on the light.
The dim light lids up this cramped space. The wallpaper was started to peel in a moist condition like
this. The sheet had turned yellow and there were some disgusting stains on it
as well.
This was just like the room she used to live in before marrying Daran.
Paul and Hellen hated her because of her quiet and dull personality. So they put her in a small utility
room in the basement, besides the maid’s dorm.
Gradually, everyone in the Diaz’s residence forgot that she was the master’s daughter. People started
to bully her around and give her heavy labors.
It wasn’t until she mated with Daran at 18 that she finally got a decent bedroom to her own.
Daran was cold to her, but he still rescued her out of the Diaz’s family. She was thankful of that.
She once swore to herself to always remain loyal and loving to Daran no matter what.
Until he completely broke her heart during the kidnap 6 months ago.
Janet set her luggage down by the wall and sat down on the bed. The old mattress made a loud groan
beneath her.
She was sure that this was all Hellen’s doing.
Hellen wanted to crack her using those old tricks,
Only this time Janet wasn’t going to bend over.
Checking the time to make sure this wasn’t bedtime yet, Janet unpacked her bag, fetched her toiletry
bag and left the room,
She headed upstairs, all the way to the top floor.
Then she knocked on Casper’s door.
Nobody answered at first.
Janet had to knock a few times more before she heard a muffled sound from inside.
“Wait!” That’s Casper’s voice, a little out of breath.
A few seconds later the door flew open from inside.
Casper stood by the door with an irritated look on his face, as though he just got interrupted in the
middle of something.
“Oh, it’s you.” Casper’s face softened a little when he saw Janet. “What’s the matter?”
Janet stared at Casper suspiciously.
His shirt was half–open. His lips seemed watery and red.
Janet knew what all these meant–he was messing around with someone.
“Who’s in there?” Janet asked, frowning.
She couldn’t believe that her brother hooked up with a woman on the first day they arrived at Riverside!
Janet was also afraid that Balvina would be heartbroken if she found out about this.
Balvina had a huge crush on her brother!
Janet wanted to peek into the room, but Casper stepped sideways to block her view, “Nobody. What do
you need sister?”
“I-”
“Janet!”
Another voice came from inside.
Janet widened her eyes as Balvina rushed to the door while buttoning her loosen top.
“Hey what are you doing here?” Balvina asked with a red face.
Janet quickly put a hand on her own lips to stop a laughter, “Nothing…Sorry this seemed like a bad
time. I’ll talk to you guys tomorrow. Goodnight.”
Janet turned on her heels and was about to leave.
Yet Balvina grabbed her from the back. Her voice quick and urgent as though she was trying
to prove something, “No no this is a perfect time! Nothing is happening in here! Just say what you
need?”
Janet looked at Casper, who rubbed his forehead and agreed with a sigh:
“Yes. Nothing was happening. Is something wrong Janet?” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
They both looked weird. Janet decided to find a good time to interrogate her best friend or brother.
“It’s not a big deal,” Janet said. “I simply want to borrow one of your bathrooms to freshen up.”
Balvina and Casper both started to frown.
“Our bathroom?” Casper asked, “What about yours?”
“Is the tap not working?” Balvina clenched her fist, “How can the hotel be this careless! Let me talk to
the manager about this!”
“I don’t have a bathroom,” Janet shrugged.
A shock look appeared on their faces.
“What the hell are you talking about!” Balvina yelled, “All rooms should have a bathroom. Where on
earth are you staying at?”
Janet pulled her phone out and showed them a few pictures she just took of her room.
The look on their face became more and more furious.
“I don’t know. They probably think I don’t deserve a decent room,” Janet said, “considering…you
know…my status in this pack.”
“Your status-” Casper said with a freezing tone, “is my Gamma and their VIP guest. They should kneel
down to serve you.”
“These f**king jerks!” Balvina snapped. “I’m calling the front desk now!”
Moments later, a few hotel staffs arrived at the scene.
Including the concierge who gave Janet the room.
They exchanged an apprehensive look after learning the situation. And a manger replied with a humble
tone:
“We value guests from BloodMoon Pack very much. The problem is…we don’t have enough room at
the moment-
“What the f**k?”
–
Balvina stepped forward and grabbed his collar roaring, “There’re a bunch of empty rooms on this floor.
Do you think I’m blind?!”
The manger was frightened, but he still feigned his calm and said, “Those empty rooms are
all reserved to Alphas and officials from other packs…”
“And Janet is not an official?”
Their loud voices attracted other people staying on this floor, all were Blood Moon Pack’s members.
When they came out of their room and heard what happened, everyone was furious.
A group of large men plus Balvina circled around the manager and asked for a solution.
The manager seemed like he was going to shit his pants, but he still insisted on his earlier words.
“Forget it,” Casper suddenly said. “Somebody clearly asked him to do this. He can’t make the call.”
Then his eyes traveled the only closed door on this floor.
The manager’s face turned pale instantly.
What should he do now!
Before the manager could think of a solution, all members from BloodMoon Pack had sieged upon that
closed door.
“Wait!” the manager cried, “You don’t have the key-”
BANG!
The door was kicked down by a general like it was made of
paper.
With a sharp cry, Harper came rushing out with her hair all messy, “What are you doing you savages!”
“Get the hell out!” someone snapped, “You don’t belong here!”
She was thrown out of the room by Balvina.
“You’re no shit,” Balvina snorted.
Collapsing on the floor, Harper snapped her head up and met with Janet’s eyes.
A faint smile appeared on Janet’s lips.
An eye for an eye, Janet thought smiling.
Harper used to bully her because she had no one behind her back.
But now everything had changed.
How do you like the feeling of being bullied, Harper?
