Chapter 573 - Golden Ocean Resort (2)



~ Los Angeles area, Golden Ocean Resort ~

Janet looked at Bridgette and JoAnna with a forced smile before gesturing with her hands to step out. She walked first without talking while Bridgette and JoAnna followed.

Bridgette rolled eyes at JoAnna signaling her that they should just leave.

JoAnna decided to give it one more try. The more she looked at the place, the more she liked it.

They walked through the café and ended up on a large deck which overlooks the ocean. JoAnna could see the white beach and it was perfect. On the side was a well maintained garden full of colorful blooms. Further in the back was a park with benches and pathways surrounded with flowers and fountains. It was really beautiful. JoAnna could not help but smile.

Between resort and the beach was a large patch of leveled ground covered with lush neatly trimmed lawn, and JoAnna already imagined tables and chairs arranged for their guests. She was not sure at this point how many people will be present for her wedding but based on what she talked with Stella and Elanor, they are looking at around 400, maybe even 500 people.

"Mr. Luck told me that you are looking at September 15.", Janet\'s voice pulled JoAnna to reality.

"Yes", JoAnna confirmed.

"You can have beach or the banquet hall on that day." Janet informed them coldly.

Bridgette and JoAnna observed that Janet didn\'t have a notebook, or a tablet or anything in front of her that would indicate that she is checking the availability.

"Did someone book that date? How come it\'s one or the other?", Bridgette stepped in. She was fired up by Janet\'s condescending tone. If someone booked beach, how can it be an option? Why is she giving them one out of two? It does not make sense.

"You can book one or the other.", Janet tilted her head and her eyes widened as she grimaced.

"We can give deposit for both if needed.", JoAnna looked at Janet suspiciously. At this point she realized that these people don\'t have any intention to treat them as customers. She wanted to understand why.

"That goes against our policy." Janet squinted.

"What policy is that? Does it matter if one person books all your amenities?", JoAnna was losing her patience. "What if we want to book the whole resort?"

Janet burst into laugh.

When Janet calmed down her laughter and told them that it\'s not possible to book the whole resort, Bridgette also had her question: "Are you saying that Miss Hill can have a wedding here and at the same time another wedding might take place?"

Janet shrugged. She didn\'t deny this as a possibility.

Bridgette was about to say something else, when JoAnna took her hand in hers.

"Let\'s go. We are done here.", JoAnna finally lost patience. She decided that motives of these people are not important. Two of them are leaving.

Just as they turned to leave, they stopped when they heard Janet say mockingly: "If you can\'t afford us, you don\'t need to come up with false excuses." She lifted her nose and walked inside swiftly, ignoring JoAnna and Bridgette.

As JoAnna and Bridgette walked out of the resort, their displeasure was impossible to hide.

Young lady at the reception saw them and gloated while looking after them. \'Hmph! People of that class should not dream of coming here…\'

Receptionist even walked behind two of them, to enjoy the show a bit longer.

Her face dropped when she saw JoAnna and Bridgette being greeted by bodyguards. And her mouth was wide open while watching them get in the back of black Maybach. She looked after two cars who were departing the resort. One car with driver and a bodyguard in front, and JoAnna and Bridgette in the back, and second car with four bodyguards.

\'It seems this Miss Hill is not a simple person…\' Receptionist contemplated for a minute if she should tell Mr. Luck about this or not. Did they make a mistake by not treating those two women nicely?

Just as she turned to go back inside, she heard two older gentlemen talk.

"Isn\'t that fiancée of Jeffrey White?"

"Yes, I believe she is. I come here often, but this is the first time I see her here."

"Was he with her?"

"I don\'t think so…"

The receptionist approached them. "Excuse me… Do you know who those two young ladies are?" She gestured toward the departing cars.

One man responded: "I don\'t know about the one with light brown hair. But the one with darker hair is fiancée of Jeffrey White, CEO of White corp."

The receptionist thought that her head is buzzing. She is not into business, and she does not know who Jeffrey White is, but she heard about White corp. This Miss Hill is fiancée of the White corp. CEO? What should she do? Should tell Mr. Luck that they rudely denied service to fiancée of a powerful CEO and treated her like how they treat people who can\'t afford them?

\'Oh, NO!!!\' The receptionist screamed internally when she realized that Miss Hill came to look for a wedding venue!!? Does it not mean that they blew up the chance to host a wedding of the century?

Should she tell this to Mr. Luck? Absolutely not! If she keeps quiet, there is a possibility that no one will mention this again. After all, they will not see this Miss Hill ever again. Right?

JoAnna was quiet in the car. 

"Are we going to next place?", Bridgette asked.

"No. I\'m not in the mood. Let\'s go back to LA. Home.", JoAnna grumbled.

"Do you want to go and meet with Jeff?"

JoAnna thought for a moment before rejecting the idea. "No. He is busy. He told me this morning that his schedule is packed."

Bridgette nodded and instructed driver to take them back to the penthouse. She sneakily texted Steve: "Can Boss meet Anna for lunch? She had a bad morning and could use cheering up."

~ Los Angeles, White corp. ~

Steve was in the meeting room when he got message from Bridgette. He glanced at Jeff who was listening to a proposal from three directors while reading documents in front of him.

Steve can see that Jeff is busy, but he also knows that he always puts his future wife first. He inched toward him and handed him his phone.

Three directors glared at Steve with displeasure that he interrupted their discussion.

Steve ignored them; he was focused on Jeff who was now reading message from Bridgette.

Jeff returned Steve\'s phone to him and gave a small nod. "Make it happen."

Jeff turned to three directors. "Continue."

Steve went out, cleared Jeff\'s schedule around lunch time and booked a restaurant.
