Chapter 847 Nowhere To Sleep
Nathaniel was impeccably dressed in a tailored suit, his tall and well–proportioned figure radiating an imposing aura.
As Eric watched Nathaniel approach, he couldn’t shake the feeling of overwhelming pressure, as if it were coming from an unseen multitude, despite Nathaniel’s blindness.
“Nathaniel,” Zachary called out.
“Right here,” Nathaniel responded.
For reasons unknown, the moment he arrived, the atmosphere turned icy, as if everyone suddenly felt uneasy.
Cecilia was perplexed. Initially, she thought Mason had come over because he was worried about Lucy. But now, it didn’t seem to be the case.
In the presence of Eric, Cecilia didn’t felt it was appropriate to question Nathaniel about his reasons for coming over.
She asked, “Should we find a place to rest for a bit?”
Eric responded, “Not far from here, in the motel where I’m staying, I’ve already reserved a place for you all. However, I didn’t anticipate so many people, so it might be a bit crowded.”
“It’s fine.” Vivian really wasn’t afraid of anything, she simply said, “Zachary, Mason, Nathaniel, you guys aré the extra ones here. You three should sleep outside.”
The expressions of the three men instantly soured.
With Vivian leading the way, Mason couldn’t help but speak up. “I can stay with Lucille.”
However, Lucille was unwilling. “Who said I wanted to stay with you?”
“Lucy.”
“Don’t call me that.” Lucille’s face flushed red.
Although the two had already gotten engaged in their hometown, held an engagement banquet, and even agreed to get married by the end of the year, they were after all, still not married.
Elliot also stated, “My dad can sleep with mommy.”
The expressions on Nathaniel’s and Cecilia’s faces changed in an instant.
Elliot added, “What’s there to be afraid of? Didn’t you guys used to sleep together all the time?”
Cecilia was rendered speechless.
Jonathan playfully tapped him. “Keep your mouth shut Elliot pouted.
Mason had Lucille, Nathaniel had Cecilia, but he…
Zachary looked at Vivian, but before he could even speak, he heard Vivian say, “I won’t squeeze in with you.”
“Who wants to squeeze in with you? I’d rather sleep outside.”
He also wanted face.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
The group followed Eric up the mountain and before long, they reached the motel he had mentioned.
The motel was constructed entirely of wood, featuring two levels. The first floor served as the dining area and the proprietor’s residence, while the second was dedicated to accommodating guests.
These guests were usually acquaintances of the owner.
On the second floor of the motel, there were a total of seven rooms. Originally, these accommodated Eric, Cecilia, Elliot, Jonathan, Lucille, Vivian, and Sven, with one room to spare.
Now that Nathaniel and his group had arrived, if they were all to live separately, they would be short of two rooms.
“Isn’t there anywhere else to stay around here?” Zachary asked.
The boss replied with a laugh, “Mine is the only motel within a kilometer from here.”
Since this area was considered private, tourists wouldn’t usually venture here.
The owner wasn’t short of cash, he didn’t rely on serving tourists to make a living.
Eric was rather accommodating. “Does anyone want to share a room with me? We can arrange for an extra bed.”
None of the three men harbored any fondness for Eric.
Zachary said coldly, “I’d rather share a bed with Sven than with you.”
Sven, who had been standing at the doorway, furrowed his brow. “I don’t like sharing a bed with others.”
Zachary was taken aback. This bodyguard, he had no understanding of human nature and social conventions at all.
Would he really have nowhere to stay that night?
If Cecilia hadn’t slept with Nathaniel, he would certainly not dare to compete with him for the extra room. Of course, he also didn’t want to squeeze in with Nathaniel.
Would he freeze to death if all the air conditioners were blasting cold air that night?
