Chapter 86: Chapter 86

(Vivienne)

Everything was different, from the flight to Oxford which was mainly me getting pampered while I played with Tiny. Victor was still in his businessman mode and had plugged in earphones afraid that I would disturb him. To be honest the man was so rude

The assistant pilot lady came asking him if he wanted anything but he didn't even answer. I he to save the day by calling her and asking if she could give me something for the puppy

She seemed a little hurt by Victor's behavior but I tried making her feel less awkward and did something more useful

I fell asleep in the middle before we even arrived mainly because I was tired of sitting alone and talking to a puppy who didn't talk

If only Victor was less of a grumpy man then I would have talked to him but when they woke me up. I was stunned to wake up to something beautiful, I expected to be in the jet or something but looking around with blurry eyes made it impossible for me to take in my new surroundings

"Please madam… you've arrived, "a lady said as she gestured for me to get out of the car. I looked around searching for Victor and I spotted him outside talking to some man

Everything was confusing as I pushed myself towards the door anxious to see where we were. The lady moved away and I stepped my feet on the ground. Marbled pavements greeted me as my eyes widened looking around the place

The building was enormous, beautiful with gorgeous lights. The surroundings were breathtaking. The atmosphere was so pleasant that I smiled only realizing that we arrived at the hotel. I didn't know we were staying at a hotel but what do I know when Victor was the man in charge.

"Here...slip your arms in"I was brought back to reality when the lady and two other ladies showed me a black coat. I didn't know who they were but they were wearing matching uniforms. A black knee-high skirt and a tuck-in-white sleeved button shirt button-up caps and a folded blue scarf around their necks. I did as told and the coat fitted me perfectly well as it fell to my knees. It smelled lovely

"Thanks" I muttered, fixing it in front and glancing at Victor. He was now joined by two more men in different suits. He seemed to be in a professional mood as he talked with them. They were smiling while saying whatever it was but he was as grumpy as ever

"Welcome madam to our hotel...you are very pretty, "the three ladies said with giggles and I turned around and they were looking at me happily. I was stunned as I waved at them awkwardly not sure why they were being so friendly with me

"Thanks," I said innocently and turned around just as Victor approached me

"Let's go in," he said as he walked in front and I followed him. Several men in Black suits with communication devices to their ears followed us as we headed to the entrance of the hotel. I guessed we were using a private entrance seeing how quiet it was with only the staff lined up. Another man joined us and he was dressed like the other ladies but differently

"Welcome sir...we are happy to have you at our hotel, "the man said and I guessed he was the manager, the glass door opened wide and we walked in. My eyes were up looking around the unfamiliar place

I knew the hotel was a five-star hotel just by seeing how amazing it was, from the structure to the services and the richly welcome. It was a perfect array of home hues, for it gave a sense of home away from home not like I had a permanent home but London had been my home ever since I found out about my existence

"Sir, the room is ready...I made sure the conference room is available if needed...the servants are endless and at your service at any time"the manager said as soon as we stopped by the private elevator. I stood away from Victor hiding away from existence when I was just admiring my new surroundings. I wanted to know how many days we'd spend here and which was my room

"What do you mean room...sir instructed for two separate rooms" it was Jason, Victor's managing director said and I looked up concerned with what he said. The manager looked scared that I knew something was wrong somewhere

"Well...sir...we made preparations for two rooms but...sir," the manager said stammering as he scratched his head awkwardly, I walked up to Victor accidentally brushing against his hand because I was concerned. He looked furious, nearly murderous

"Talk!"Victor made a low yell which scared everyone around including me standing beside him.

"S...sir...the...we gave away the...the room we gave you, "the manager blurted out and fell to his feet, I failed to understand why that was a problem. The man was pathetic as he begged before Victor. I wondered why they feared him so much

"Sir...can we find another hotel more suitable than this?"Jason asked his boss and I did the same. Seeing Victor's reaction, he was suppressing anger and I knew the manager and the owner of the hotel were all toast. He was angry

"No...it's already late...our business acquaintances are here...this is easier for movements" Victor surprised me as he replied and turned his attention to the manager kowtowing like some mad beggar

"Now what?"I muttered turning away

"Sir...the room is big enough...if you...could share for one night...then tomorrow we'll arrange a new one since all the rooms are fully booked tonight" the manager explained and I was shocked by his words. Not just me but victor seemed affected

"Sir... we'll have the room ready for the lady if you could pardon us for tonight" this time a lady approached us. She was elegant with short black hair, medium fat, and wearing the same outfit as the other ladies although hers was a red one. I guessed she was their boss

"Please sir" they begged Victor and I was sweating like hell

From what I heard, I had to share a room with Victor. How on Earth was I to share a room with him

"This is bad.

***

I didn't even know what to do. I was completely useless and anxious immediately when the woman led me to the room. Victor has to meet some of his friends or business partners.

"Feel at home madam...and call me if you need anything"just like that the lady said and left the room. For starters the room was buggy. A large king-sized bed with white linens and some pillows. It was nicely made. The walls of course were more homely, deep gold and white  There was a dressing table and a mirror. The door to the bathroom.

A window that showed the view from outside and a small couch where I couldn't even stretch to sleep in it

"Damn them...now what...of all days is it now that I have to share a room with Victor...I'm a lady" I said out loud feeling irritated as I stomped my feet hard. If I had to shower then what. Was I to wait until Victor had fallen asleep and where was I going to sleep

"This is ridiculous... didn't they know I was coming along... isn't he a big deal...why would they give the room away"I just wanted to strangle them for putting me in such a predicament

"I need to freshen up before he comes back," I said realizing this was my chance to shower and be fresh since I hated going to bed all filthy

I quickly looked around and saw that our things had been put already

"Thank goodness," I said and rushed to my red suitcase, it was small hence I quickly opened it and started making things with it. I found my lotions and perfumes, thank goodness, and my bath soap, even better. Some panties which I had to keep securely away from a certain grumpy man

"I hope he doesn't come back now," I said as I took out what to wear and threw the clothes on the bed, and rushed to the bathroom. I didn't even know if it was indeed a bathroom but I was glad to find it was

"This should do, "I remarked and stripped off my clothes. I wasn't going to soak myself in the white tub hell no. Thanks would be wasting time hence I headed to the walk-in shower room. Stepped on the cold floor and slid the shut the glass door

I turned the water on and smile when I felt it with my hand and it was hot, I adjusted correctly until it was warm

When I was done, I quickly took a white towel from the cabinet I saw full of rolled-up towels. Wrapping it around my body, it only reached mid-thigh and everything was exposed

"Not good," I said as I pushed my wet hair back and ran my hand over my face to rid myself of the water dripping down

"Coast is clear," I said like a detective when I opened the bathroom door and peeked inside the bedroom to see if the grumpy man was there but it was as I left it

With lightning speed, I ran out and rushed to get my lotions and stuff. I had to get dressed as fast as I could, knowing the door would open any minute and some grumpy man would walk in. The thought of it made my heart race as I dropped a few things on the floor. The body lotion bottle was open and the cream was scattered everywhere

"No no...this is horrible" I complained as I bent down to fix things. I picked up the bottle and Immediately I straightened up to clean it, the towel wrapped around my body slipped and fell to the floor just as I heard turning off a doorknob, and before I could lower down and pick up the towel. The door opened and I froze midway. Cold air engulfed me as my gaze shifted to the door seeing who walked in and like some devil it was Victor, our eyes met and he seemed shocked and I just wanted the rgound to swallow me

"Dear God" I heard him mutter accompanied by a few curses I've never heard from him and he immediately walked out and closed the door leaving me standing there humiliated.
