Chapter 3

"Very good" Manning said

"Really? that's great.I won't disturb you know Ms. Du" the receptionist replied.

"That was strange" Manning said to herself

She looked around and found money next to her. This money? Manning thought. She tried to get up and suddenly felt pain and soreness in her lower back and the region between her thighs. Manning tried to recall everything that happened last night.

"Last night------"

In my dreams it seemed to be Noan Sun, has Noan come back?

No that's impossible! He knew nothing about it. Manning thought as the realization hit her

"It wasn't my Noan... Omg who was that-- who was that man? what have I done? "

....

The reception

"Ms. Du you were the only one who checked in the room 8018 last night " the receptionist said "Maybe you had requested for special service and forgot about it" the receptionist continued.

"What do you mean ? I never requested for special service" an angry Manning said

*some distance away in the reception*

"What should we do Manager? " the assistant manager asked

"Fire yesterday's counter staff. We've to find a way to quiet it down " the head manager replied.

"They gave her the special room for the president of Nankung Group, and Mr. Nankung took her.... " the scared head manager said

".....He must have thought that she was the woman that we had arranged for him.If Mr. Nankung gets to know about this , then.. then he'll pull the fund and we'll be screwed" the head manager continued.

*outside the hotel*

A sad and clueless Manning leaves the hotel

Her phone starts to ring and the caller is none other than Noan Sun!

"My dear Manman it's me" Noan said excitedly.

"Noah..." Manning said

"Where are you? I just got off the plane.Wait for me, I'll have the driver pick you up. " Noan said

"No, no.. need , there are too many people out on the streets" Manning said " We're meeting at the third intersection on the way to your home , do you remember ? there is a lake.. " Manning said as she tried not to cry.

"Yes, the Phoenix lake . That was our favourite place, how can I forget ?" Noan said.

"So we're meeting there, I miss you " Manning said as uncontrollable tears started fell from her eyes.

"Stupid girl. Why are you still so stupid?" "we're seeing each other really soon " Noan said.
