A few minutes ago.
Luke had just left the manager's office when one of the receptionist entered the office seemingly hesitating about something.
The manager asked, "What's wrong?"
The receptionist bit her lips before saying, " earlier today, some of our cleaners had heard the three goddesses planning to give Mrs Beatrice husband a hard time and am guessing his the young man who just left now.
The manager couldn't help but shudder upon hearing that, where those women crazy? What gives them the right to give Luke a hard time.
Where they too tired of enjoying their lives or what.
He didn't give a damn about those powerful women but what he knew was that they couldn't afford to offend Luke on his turf or he might be held accountable.
"Quick! What suite are they in?" he anxiously asked the receptionist.
"Suite 34"
He went to the telephone and dialed the number directly whiles praying that he could warn them on time.
The telephone rang for sometime but there was still no answer causing his anxiety to grow more.
He was about to personally rush there when he heard a reply from the other end causing him to sigh with relief.
"Hello, am the manager of the M1 hotel Alex Yates"
When Sasha heard the voice, she was surprised, Alex Yates was a very well known person because of his relationship with Archman Group. He was extremely arrogant and showed respect to no one, so Sasha was very surprised to receive his call.
"Mr Yates, how may I...." before Sasha word could even end, Alex interrupted her.
"There's a handsome young man in blue suit visiting your suite to get his wife.
No matter what you do don't offend him, he's someone neither you or I can afford to offend, even the continent backing you can't afford to offend him"
Sasha started getting nervous because she knew the manager won't call her to prank her,
"Mr Yates may I know his identity" she asked cautiously.
"He's the founder and Chairman of Archman Group"
"Archman Group" Sasha hummed in confusion. She had never heard of this group before, were they a mafia gang or something, she thought to herself.
One could hardly blame her because A Group was the name the world knew them as, only a few people knew that the A represented the family name.
Alex understood Sasha confusion so he added, " Also known as A Group"
When Sasha heard this she froze in shock and fear before glancing at Luke again in disbelief.
It was common knowledge that the founder of A Group was allegedly an old man, so what was this she was hearing.
She finally understood that mysterious and powerful aura around the young man before him that she previously couldn't understand.
She looked at Luke again only to see Nina throw a check on the floor with Luke sneering coldly.
She pulled every remaining strength she had in her body after the initial shock she had gone through and approached Nina.
Nina thought she was about to get support from Sasha and felt smug, but to her surprise Sasha lifted her hands and gave her a large and harsh resounding slap shocking all those present including Luke himself.
Luke glanced at Sasha for some seconds in confusion, a few moments later he put things together and figured out that Alex should have informed her of his identity.
"You..you.. you slapped me!" Nina asked still in shock and surprise, she wanted to demand an explanation, but Sasha shocked her once again by turning towards Luke and doing a ninety degree bow.
"Please forgive us for our ignorance" she said sincerely.
Luke just sat there and stared at her emotionlessly, he was no Buddha and was also a very petty person who was unwilling to suffer any grievances.
He really wanted to retaliate but upon remembering how excited Beatrice was to see them in the morning, he knew that they definitely had a good relationship, causing him to hesitate.
As a matter of fact he was planning to bankrupt their families and companies before he left the hotel so that he would see where they were going to get the money to bribe him.
He sighed and hurrumphed at the same time.
"Where's my wife?" he asked coldly.
Sasha pointed at the room Beatrice was resting at, Luke got up and left the women there.
Nina and Felicia were still in a daze and didn't understand what was happening, they were too stunned to even speak.
All Nina kept saying was "Why? Why are you being so nice to him?" but Sasha ignored her.
She didn't know whether Luke had forgiven them or not, making her panic as she walked back and forth in the room.
Luke entered to see Beatrice sleeping conformably on the bed, he could tell she was drunk because she kept muttering a lot of words which Luke couldn't understand.
But seeing the current Beatrice brought a smile on Luke face. " I never knew you had such a cute side"
He carried her in a princess style and left the room, only to see the once arrogant Nina and Felicia on their knees.
"Mh...Mh...Mr Archman we apologize for our insolence, please forgive us.
We would accept any punishment you give us" the two women said with their heads hanging low.
Sasha had told them of Luke's identity causing them to stumble and fall, it was only now that they realized the dangerous situation they had put theirselves, family and loved into.
Luke looked at them without showing any emotions.
"Thank you for always being there for me" Beatrice voice rang in the room, though she was still drunk and unconscious along with a bunch of gibberish words"
Luke emotionaless face finally eased up when he heard Beatrice.
He glanced at the woman, "I would let this go only because of Beatrice, I hope you continue to be good to her"
"Yes yes, we would. She would always be our sister" the girls nodded their heads frantically, they've been granted amnesty.
"Thank you for sparing us Mr Archman" the girls thanked Luke ceaselessly but Luke mind was wondering of something else.
"How could she be so light with the kind of assets she has on her body, no wonder she doesn't eat much"
Indeed Beatrice had such a killer figure, one would almost think it would give her more weight but she was as light as a feather.
"Alright, I'll take my leave" Luke said before walking out of the room.
"We'll show you out, the three women rushed in front of him and opened the door for him.
When the suite door was opened, Luke saw the manager waiting for him with a group of beautiful receptionist standing neatly in two rows waiting for him.
"Allow us to escort you sir", the manager said.
Luke nodded before taking the lead, with the manager and the three goddesses following them along with the receptionist.
"How grand, How magnificent" what was the identity of the man in front, Why was he treated with so much respect" the onlookers curiosity couldn't help but grow.
When they got to the ground floor, the procession stopped, Luke glanced at the three women before saying, " You guys should be really thanking Alex tonight, or even I don't know what I would have done"
The three women shuddered.
"Does Beatrice know your identity?" Sasha asked, she was sure that Beatrice had no idea of who her husband was from the conversation they've had the whole day.
Luke was speechless, it's not like his hiding it from her but he never told her because she didn't ask, and he honestly felt it wasn't necessary since she would find out soon. As he was contemplating he heard Sasha say,
"I understand"
"Eh?", What did she understand? anyways he was too lazy to bother because that also worked and saved him from having to explain himself.
"Unknown to him was that, Sasha had taken his silent as an admission that he did not want to reveal his identity to Beatrice for his own reasons.
The moment they stepped outside a convoy of black customized SUV with the letter A pulled up in front of Luke, the convoy was made up of 7 cars.
"That's A Group chairman motorcade, what is it doing here?" the onlookers were in a frenzy, men in suits and armor stepped out of the car to secure the parameter in a few seconds before one of them opened the door for Luke.
Luke gently placed Beatrice in the car, but before he entered he glanced at the manager and smiled at him, "I'll remember you" he was quite impressed by the manager performance today.
Alex bowed, "Its always a pleasure serve you" Luke nodded at the three women before stepping into the car.
The motorcade sped off and disappeared from their view into the night.
"Beatrice, you're one hell of a lucky woman" Sasha muttered with a whole lot of complicated emotions.
