    After touring the facilities, Ethan suggested we take a walk. He opened his car and grabbed a back pack. As we strolled toward the hotel, I realized how ordinary we must have looked for no one to recognize us.“Good evening sir,” the receptionist greeted us with a warm smile as we approached the from desk“We need the most luxurious room in the hotel” Ethan saidI couldn’t help but chide him“But you promised to keep it simple tonight” I whisperedEthan chuckled..“Love, keeping it simple doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be comfortable” he said, flashing me a wide grin.

The owner is way too private”Ethan’s brow creased at his response“Be good at your job and dig deeper” Ethan pressedI couldn’t help but wonder why Ethan is so interested in finding who the owner of this hotel is“What’s this about?” I askedHe sighed, still looking deep in thought“I want to meet with the CEO for a bargain.
