41 The Tour (2)

There were basketball, volleyball and badminton courts on the left side of the hotel. There were also arcade games that require coins to run the game not far from the sports ground.

There was a karaoke place that opened for twenty-four hours. There were two types of rooms, namely VIP room, and public room. Of course, the shared space was much bigger than the VIP room. But the VIP room was also not too small for ten people.

The public room has two doors on different sides with dozens of chairs and five small round tables spread throughout the room. While the VIP room has one door and a private table with a sofa of the highest quality, making anyone sitting on it feel comfortable.

There was also a sauna and spa for women. On the other hand, the gentlemen could enjoy their time in a bar. This bar opened from eight in the evening to four in the morning.

This place was very suitable as a place for family recreation or a honeymoon for newlyweds.

Vanessa used this concept inspired by her own family. She aspired to have a place where she could spend time with her huge family and enjoyed various age-appropriate facilities. Whether young children, teenagers, adults, and even the elderly, Vanessa wished them all to enjoy the warm atmosphere of this place with their spouses, friends, and family.

It seems after this, Vanessa would invite them all to spend the holiday here. Vincent smiles, imagining their mother would be excited about their upcoming vacation.

Even though his mind was with his family, Vincent remained focused on his work without resting or making mistakes.

In the middle of their work, a muffled giggling sound came from behind them.

Vincent, along with the two girls, instantly turned towards the source of the sound. They saw the twins gasped as if they caught them like thieves and hiding behind the pillar.

Anna walked over to the twins with a sullen face.

"You guys! Didn't you say you wouldn't interfere!"

"We're not disturbing." protested one of the twins with a pony face.

Cathy just sighed, knowing her twins would never stop following them. Because of that, he walked closer to her three younger siblings.

"Anna, for now, you don't need to accompany me anymore. I'll take care of the rest myself. You better take them to play in the backyard or swim."

"But... uncle said .."

"Uncle never forces you. He just wants to give us a nice vacation. Moreover, you guys managed to finish your school exams, that's why he gave this holiday on the grounds of work."

"Aaa..." Anna's mouth formed the letter A to understand her sister's explanation.

"So just enjoy your holiday," she said, rubbing Anna's head gently and smiling warmly at the three of them. "I promise I'll catch up with you after my job is done. Okay?"

"Yes, ma'am!" exclaimed the twins excitedly while giggling cheerfully. The two of them each kissed Cathy's cheeks on both sides before pulling Anna's hand to run.

"Hey, I want to kiss her too." Anna protested and pulled herself apart from the twin's grasp.

Cathy just laughed at that and once again let her cheek kissed by her sister.

Cathy waved her hand to see her siblings' leaving without realizing that there were a pair of eyes that kept watching her.

By the time Cathy turned to turn to Vincent, the man was back on his way. Therefore Cathy did not worry at all whether the man witnessed the scene or not.

"Can I ask something?" Vincent asked.

"Yes?"

"Have you been to Green Park?"

Cathy nodded her head when she answered, "Every Sunday, I take my siblings there. Why?"

"No, it's nothing," Vincent replied curtly and once again returned to his job.

"I didn't know your employer would allow you to bring your sisters here."

"..." Cathy didn't know what to answer at his comment.

Her uncle didn't want anyone to know that she was his niece. Neither did Cathy want anyone to see that she was Benjamin's niece to make things change the way they behaved towards her.

Cathy was not a smart person, but she was not stupid, either. She could tell the differences if one approached her sincerely or to bring her down.

But supposing that everyone approached her on purpose just because she was the niece of the founder of the Star Risen Hotel... she wasn't sure she would be able to tell which was friend or foe.

Because of that, Cathy preferred to remain silent and breathe a sigh of relief when the young man did not press her further.

Not long after, a girl worked part-time there, running around calling her name with her breath panting.

"Cathy, Cathy, we had a problem. The singer who was supposed to be on the show tomorrow night had an accident. And also, someone boycotted our band, so they canceled our contract."

Cathy could understand if one experienced an unexpected accident. No one could avoid disaster, right. But boycotting? Could that even happen in this business?

"And there's more..."

More? Cathy's forehead frowned even more.

"Somehow, the ingredients in the refrigerator are smelly and moldy. But gathering quality ingredients takes days and strangely enough..." the girl whispered to Cathy so that no third party could overhear, "All our stored vegetables are full of caterpillars."

Cathy's eyes widened at this.

She was sure she had checked all the grocery supplies yesterday and that they were unblemished.

Cathy was silent as she seemed to think about the matter seriously before finally turning her head to Vincent, who had been watching her expression.

"Sorry, I don't think I can be your guide any more. I have some urgent to do. Do you mind taking the photo yourself?"

Vincent smiled at her. "Yes, I'll be fine. Good luck."

Cathy immediately walked with the girl who reported the problem to her while calling someone.

"Hi, this is Catherine West, who called you a few days ago... Yes, that's right. I need your help."

Catherine arrived at the main kitchen and immediately walked toward the grocery stocks.

Her nose wrinkled when she smelled the unpleasant smell as soon as the closet door opened. Not only that, Cathy was baffled when she saw the green caterpillars moving in and out of the vegetables.

What happened? Just yesterday afternoon, she checked all this, and all seemed well. Why suddenly their vegetables in the storage cabinets changed drastically?

Cathy summoned the security and ordered them to check the kitchen area's CCTV while contacting someone.

Because the person she contacted did not pick up, she decided to give up and focus on the television screen.

It was then that she saw a figure dressed in black enter the kitchen quietly and put something in the storage.

The scene earlier shocked the camera supervisor and the head chef.
