Pathetic Woman

The woman told the hotel staff to take her to room 3086. They arrived at the door of the room and the woman listened carefully. She wished she could hear Lilia Pangestu's pitiful scream, but there was only silence.

The woman frowned in annoyance. Maybe the walls of this hotel room were made soundproof, so she couldn't hear anything. The second time she put her ear on the bedroom door and pricked, silence greeted her again.

Finally, she lost her temper and turned to the staff, "Are you sure they are inside?"

The staff member did not answer and instead pushed the woman into the unlocked room.

"Sorry, Miss Rina!" The staff member slammed the door shut and grabbed the doorknob so the woman couldn't get out.

"Hey! What are you doing?! Open the door! " The woman shouted while banging on the door.

A moment later, the woman stopped banging on the door. Instead, a voice shouted, "Peter, it's me! H-Hey, what the… aaahh!!!"

The staff jumped back when they heard the woman's scream. He hurriedly took out his phone with a trembling hand and called Lilia.

"Miss Lilia, she's in!" He reported in a trembling voice.

He received further instructions over the phone, then immediately went to the staff-only elevator at the end of the hall. After waiting for a few minutes, the elevator doors opened and a group of reporters scrambled to get out. The staff member directed them to room 3086.

The reporters came because they heard the news that a famous actress was meeting her lover at this celebration party. Even though the information did not mention the actress's name, they still came with great enthusiasm.

"Quick, prepare the camera lens!"

"Make sure the voice recorder is ready!"

"Don't get caught by other reporters!"

They arrived in front of room 3086 and immediately bursted in as soon as the staff opened the door.

The view in the room surprised them all. Their camera lights captured the cluttered room and the clothes scattered everywhere. On the bed, a fat man was beating a woman who was sobbing violently.

*****

Twenty minutes later, the sound of ambulance sirens stopping in front of the hotel interrupted the festivities.

The guests crowded into the lobby and saw the reporters scrambling out of the hotel elevator. After they all got out, two people appeared carrying a woman from the elevator. The woman's body was only covered by a hotel blanket.

The newly arrived medics immediately laid the woman on a stretcher before taking her to the ambulance, but everyone had already seen the woman's pathetic appearance.

"What a pathetic woman..."

"Who beat her until her face is so battered like that?"

"Is she a guest at this party too?"

The guests' comments reached Rina's ears, who could only lie weakly on the stretcher. She felt like she was on stage and being watched by everyone.

Rina didn't understand why her neatly arranged plan fell apart like this. She just wanted to torture Lilia and humiliate her in return for their bickering at any time. Instead of making it happen, Peter attacked her until Lilia could not see the bridge of her nose.

As medics were carrying her across the lobby, Rina heard someone speak in a loud voice, "Hey, isn't she a model named Rina Calya?"

Immediately there was a commotion among the guests.

"Who is Rina Calya?"

"Isn't she a model who pretends to be rich and gets cheated all out?"

"Ah! I heard she put nails in another model's shoes at an audition for a fashion show! This must be karma!"

Rina gritted her teeth and could only bear the shame until she was led into the ambulance.
