Female Novel
Chapter 1066
Noting Philip's demeanor, Sharon cast a smug look at Mia. So what if the Lane family was a prominent family in Nord City? The Barretts weren't going to be intimidated by them. Mia scrutinized Philip and frowned. "Where's Mike, your former manager?"
She clearly remembered Mike was the manager, not this unfamiliar man whom she couldn't recognize.
Philip replied calmly, "Mr. Labeouf took a few days off to tend to his personal matters back home. So, I'll be acting as the interim manager in his absence. Please come to me if you have any issues."
Mia glanced at Shelly and began, "Ms. Barrett never made an advance reservation at Aide Castle Hotel before. And according to my knowledge, all bookings for this year are full."
Staring at Shelly, Philip asked tentatively, "Ms. Barrett, you haven't reserved a birthday-themed banquet at our hotel?"
Shelly grew visibly awkward and said in a clipped tone, "No, because I haven't decided where to host my birthday party before. I came across your design today, so I thought I'd like to make a reservation now. Can't I do that now?"
"It's not that, Ms. Barrett. The hotel has been completely booked out this year. If you really want a reservation, I can fit you in next year."
Shelly's expression fell. "Why can't you fit me in this year? It's just a birthday party. It's not like you have people coming over every day, right? Just allocate a day for me."
"I'm very sorry, Ms. Barrett. We do not accommodate guests every day because we need time to alter the designs for our themes. The plants we use for decoration take time to grow."
Visibly irritated, Shelly shrieked,
"What are you on about? You just don't want me to book, don't you? Mind you, I'm a Barrett! I'm sure you must've heard of Timothy before, right? Do you want him to talk to you personally?"
Philip explained in haste, "Ms. Barrett, please don't get angry. That's not what I meant."
"Then what do you mean? You better make yourself clear today."
Jasmine stifled her laughter with her hand. "Oh dear, some people claim to host a birthday party with today's theme when they haven't even made a reservation. You should only speak about it once you get the deed done."
n Shelly was outraged. She swerved toward Sharon and said, "Aunt Sharon, look at how they're bullying us! I just want to host a birthday party here, yet they're so unwilling to accommodate us. How can we even work with them in the future?"novelbin
Furrowing her brows, Sharon turned.
to Philip and said, "It's simple Just allocate any day for her birthday party. You don't have to make a fuss."
Shelly felt slightly uneasy. Of course, she'd like to pick a date, but it wasn't C
datud up to her now. She would comply as long as she could host a birthday banquet at Aide Castle Hotel.
"Mrs. Barrett, why don't I go back and take another look at this matter to see if I can adjust a day for Ms. Barrett? How does that sound?"
"Splendid."
Shelly shot a victorious glance at Jasmine and Mia. "See? What you can't do doesn't mean the Barretts can't do it."
Mia glanced at Philip and said, "Who told you it's appropriate to tampen with the reservation schedule for a N birthday party when the hotel's already fully booked?"
