Chapter 1378: The Generous and AttentiveSwain
However, Belinda didn't give Algerone Swain a friendly look. She kept astraight face, showing no signs of hunger, even appearing ratherdisgusted, and still wore an unwelcoming expression as she looked athim.
As for Algerone Swain, he seemed quite magnanimous, having alreadyput the unpleasantness of the morning behind him. He didn't want tocreate any tension with her, so he took off all the lids from the dishes,arranged the chopsticks, and then stood up. "You should eat while it'shot. I know you can't eat while I'm here, so I'll leave first." He had acharming self-awareness.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Algerone Swain gave her agentle smile and walked out on his own, bending down at the door topick up the scattered roses.
Belinda didn't look back, her heart still weighed down by theresentment and anger of the past twenty years! It wasn't until she heardthe sound of his footsteps fading away, followed by the door closing,that she finally turned to look.
The room was empty, and so was her heart. The aroma of the dishesfilled the air. Belinda came to her senses and gazed at the variousbowls on the tea table, each exquisite bowl containing a differentdelicious dish, all still steaming hot.
She sat down on the sofa and slowly picked up a fork. She was hungry,truly hungry. Holding a bow! full of food, Belinda's hardened heartsoftened for a moment. She really hadn't expected him to come.
In Belinda's memory, Algerone Swain had always been a considerateand good man. Downstairs in the hotel, the golden elevator doorsopened in the magnificent lobby, and the suave Algerone Swainstepped out. He strode directly to the front desk, his steps strong andhis handmade leather shoes spotless.
"Good day, Mr. Swain." The receptionist saw him and quickly stoppedher work, smiling and respectfully greeting him.
"Call me when the lady returns," Algerone Swain said in a deep voice,standing in front of the counter with one hand in his pocket and theother tapping the counter lightly, looking in good spirits.
"Understood," the receptionist replied, her demeanor and appearanceexcellent.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said, "Also, if my wifedoesn't come down for dinner, call me again."
"Understood!" The girl smiled brightly.
Algerone Swain smiled back, "If the information is collected properly inthe next few days, I'll give you a bonus at the end of the year!" Withthat, he turned and left.
"Thank you, boss!" Watching his tall figure, the receptionist wasoverjoyed.
The boss was indeed generous and charming, even with his templesgraying. Yes, the hotel's owner was Algerone Swain. Belinda didn'tknow, nor did Monica, and Tristan probably wasn't aware either. Kevinhad chosen this place simply because it was close to the Clarke Corp.In a room upstairs, Belinda didn't care about her appearance; after all,she was alone. One by one, the small and large bowls in front of herbecame empty. Stir-fried beef with celery, cucumber rolls, salmon, andgarlic shrimp — all of her favorites, with a taste that took her back manyyears.
Algerone Swain actually remembered...
This detail warmed her heart, making her eyes swell and her nosetingle.
At the Charity Medical Center, Monica and Tristan walked out of thelobby, the warm sunlight shining on them. They had just sent Easonback to the hospital.
The little guy needed an IV drip in the afternoon, and a teacher wouldcome to give him one-on-one tutoring.
As they were leaving, he asked expectantly, "Will Monica still comehere in the future?"
Without waiting for the girl to answer, Tristan bent down and patted hislittle brother's head, saying, “Tomorrow, I'll take Monica to a town for abusiness trip. It's part of our work, so we'll come back to see you afterwe finish, okay?"
Eason pouted, not knowing how long they would be gone, buteventually nodded obediently. "I'll wait for you here. Be sure to comeback.”
