Chapter 4 - THE MANAGER INTERVENES
Heavy, hurried footsteps echoed across the marble foyer as the hotel's general manager rushed out from the private elevator banks.
His crisp navy blue suit was slightly disheveled, and sweat glistened on his forehead as he scanned the tense scene.
"What is the meaning of this commotion in the grand lobby?!" the manager demanded, his voice trembling with official anxiety.
He caught sight of the socialite weeping on the floor and immediately froze when he saw Charlotte standing before the desk.
Without a second thought, the general manager brushed past the sobbing woman and bowed deeply toward Charlotte Valle.
"Ms. Valle, we are profoundly honored by your arrival; please forgive our failure to greet you at the entrance," he blurted out nervously.
The socialite stared up from the floor in utter shock, her jaw dropping as she realized how high up Charlotte's influence truly reached.
"Your security staff allowed an assault to take place in the main corridor," Charlotte noted coldly, her gaze sweeping over the manager.
"Heads will roll for this immediately, Ms. Valle! Security, escort this disruptive woman off the premises right now!" the manager barked.

Two burly security guards in dark suits stepped forward instantly, grabbing the socialite by her arms to haul her up.
