was only three days away. There was a big and eye-catching notice at the entrance of the hotel thatsaid, “The Sky Garden is reserved for honorable guests and the venue will be unavailable for all guestsduring this period of time. Thank you for your cooperation!”
Everyone was shocked when they saw the notice! Did someone book the whole Sky Garden ofShangri-La? They had never done this before! Rumors had it that the children of several leaders in thecity wanted to hold their wedding banquet here but were rejected without exception. Who had such aninfluence and power to reserve the Sky Garden with Shangri-La?
Claire gaped in surprise when she saw the notice. “Wow, someone actually booked the Sky Garden?That is so incredible!”
Charlie chuckles in amusement. “What’s so incredible about it? It’s just a ballroom, why can’t peoplebook it?”
“No, you don’t understand,” Claire said in a serious tone, “This Shangri- La is not some local enterprisebut a luxurious global hotel chain. The Sky Garden is its unique and major feature and is exclusively fortheir top members. If they allow everyone to make a reservation, each top member would take turns toreserve it on a daily basis, causing the other members to miss out on the privilege to use the venue.Thus, they’ve simply prohibited reservation of the ballroom.” Then, Claire sighed and continued, “Iwonder who the person who can reserve the place is. He or she must be someone extraordinary!”
Charlie said with a deliberate smile, “Maybe he’s someone who really loves his wife and wants to holda wedding here for her!” Claire said in an astonished tone, “Wow! Holding a wedding for his wife here?!Then he must really love his wife. It must be nice to be his wife!”
