Katleen Morse

After they finished dressing, the two of them came out and headed to the main hall where many guests waited.

Because there were still thirty minutes before the event started, Cathy looked for the person in charge as Flow Manager.

Flow Manager was someone in charge of keeping the sequence of events running smoothly and on time.

After Cathy received a report from the Flow Manager that the sound system, band, singer, and emcee were ready, only then she heaved a relieved sigh.

Cathy decided to go backstage to meet her best friend. As soon as she entered, she saw a woman in a dark-colored gown with a wide-open back in the back area was seriously discussing with the musicians.

The woman's hair was gathered together in shape like a pretty bun that floated slightly to the right of her shoulder.

While the side bangs of the girl's hair almost cover one eyebrow towards her left side. The woman looks very beautiful and graceful and also, if one might say... sexy.

Cathy laughed to herself. This is the first time she has complimented a woman with the word 'sexy.'

"Kitty." because she could not help but miss the girl, Cathy called the name of the 'sexy' woman.

The beautiful woman she called turned towards her and immediately smiled broadly when Kitty saw her.

"Cathy!" squealed Kitty as she walked over to her and hugged her best friend. "Did you just step off the catwalk show stage? You look amazing."

"I should have told you that," replied Cathy with a laugh. "I miss you."

"Aw... I missed you more."

Once again, they hugged each other tightly.

Katleen Morse has been Catherine's best friend since high school. Katleen should also be called Katie, who sounded precisely like Cathy. To characterize the way of calling, Catherine is still called Cathy, while Katleen is called Kitty.

This endearment name continued until today. Even when Katleen introduces herself to new people, she will ask them to call her Kitty instead of Katie.

"Sorry I couldn't pick you up at the airport. There's a problem here, and I can't leave it."

"No problem. I've heard it from the manager. And again, there is someone who makes sure to make us all feel comfortable here."

"Who?"

"I don't know. I haven't met him yet. But he was very kind when he welcomed us. This hotel service is very..." Kitty gave Cathy a thumbs up. "I'm so proud of you, Cathy."

Cathy smiled at that. "For what? I didn't do anything."

"I already heard what happened here. Someone sabotage the band, and the real singer had an accident. But you manage to solve all of that in a short time. If I'm not proud of you, then who else should I proud of? "

Cathy blushed when she heard that compliment.

"You're so sweet. If only I were a man, I would have pursued you and made you my wife." teased Kitty, nudging her best friend's elbow.

Cathy laughed at that. "Come on, don't joke anymore. I have to get back to work."

When Cathy was about to leave the room, Kitty called out to her.

"Cathy... Cheer up!"

"You too... Cheer up!"

***

The event started with a video about the hotel building process. Then the speech from the head in charge of hotels on this island. It wasn't long before Benjamin Paxton took the stage to speak his words.

Seeing her uncle have stepped onto the stage made Cathy's eyes widen. She had completely forgotten the fact that his uncle was the owner of the Star Risen Hotel. Because of that, she did not think that his uncle would come to this event.

You stupid Cathy, why don't you remember your uncle is your boss?! She complained to herself.

She had to tell Anna not to call Ben 'uncle' as they did not want people to know that Benjamin had secret four nieces.

Unfortunately, she didn't have a phone with her because she didn't like to carry a small bag. It would be more comfortable to move around if she brought nothing with her.

Now she regretted her decision. Cathy should bring her cell phone even though it will be tough to hold her cellphone while working.

Cathy's eyes scour the entire room in search of her sister. Alas, she couldn't find Anna.

Where is she?

Cathy decided to look outside and walked down the hall to the elevator and down to the main lobby. Nor does she exist. Cathy asked every employee she met about her younger sister's whereabouts, yet no one knew the answer.

Since they have been staying there for almost a week, Anna often accompanied Cathy when holding meetings for this event. All the employees already know who Anna is. That's why Cathy did not need to show them Anna's image.

Unfortunately, no one saw Anna. Cathy was starting to get worried. She tried to calm down and think positively. By this time, Anna might have returned to the hall, and nothing terrible happens to her. Hence, Cathy decided to go up to the tenth floor, where the main entrance hall was.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, Cathy heard a child's voice.

"I promise. Thanks for the candy." said the little girl, cheerfully. That girl kissed the cheek of a man who was squatting in front of her.

The little girl entered the main hall, while the man rose to his feet and turned his head towards her. Cathy couldn't see his face, but she could see the man's eyes.

Those eyes looked at her with an unfathomable look. She had never received that look before. 

Well, not really. As a matter of fact, Cathy always received that kind of look each time she dressed up, but she never cared.

But this time, why did she care? That look who admired her and like someone who was struck by the love arrow...

Wait... wait... none of this is important. What's important is why that guy is wearing a mask in the hotel?!
