Chapter 284 Distinct Treatment

Vivian exchanged smiles with Grace, but her attention was on Xander.

“I didn’t expect you to come in person this time, Mr. Fulton. Soraya Group warmly welcomes you. It

must have been a long journey. Let me take you to the hotel first.”

Xander’s expression darkened, and he curtly replied, “Thank you, Ms. Myers.”

Suddenly, two luxury cars stopped in front of them. Vivian gestured toward Grace.

“Please get in, Ms. Lewis.”

Grace nodded slightly. As she got into the car, Xander followed and took a seat next to her without

hesitation.

Then, he said to Vivian, “Ms. Myers, it’s fine for Ms. Lewis and me to share a car.

Vivian was annoyed.

Her expression slightly changed, but she suppressed her emotions. “Sure, Mr. Fulton. I’ll follow behind

you.”

As the car door closed, the vehicle slowly pulled away.

Grace pouted and said jealously, “Xander, Ms. Myers wanted to share a car with you. Aren’t you afraid

of hurting her pride?”

Xander turned his head to look at her and reached out to ruffle her hair.

“What’s going on in that little head of yours? Don’t think about this nonsense.”

Grace stifled a laugh. It was the first time she had seen Xander so serious.

Playfully, she teased. “Got it, Xander. But Ms. Myers is so beautiful. Don’t you feel anything?”

Xander coldly replied, “No.”

Instantly, Grace’s mood lifted. Even the wind blowing in her face felt gentler.

However, when they reached the hotel, Grace’s smile disappeared. The hotel’s decor seemed

outdated, with a design that looked seven or eight years old.

Vivian got out of the car and approached them. “Mr. Fulton, Ms. Lewis, let’s go inside.”

Grace was adaptable and had nothing to criticize, but Vivian’s next words left her dumbfounded.

“This is the best hotel in our area. We hope you have a comfortable stay.”

Best hotel? This?

Grace started questioning her life choices.

Xander seemed to notice her reaction and asked, “Are you not used to it?”

Grace shook her head. Since they were traveling, even if she wasn’t accustomed to it, she had

to make do.

However, her optimistic thoughts didn’t last long.

In the room, there was a plain wooden bed with slightly yellowed sheets.

Seeing that, Grace was on the verge of a breakdown.

“Ms. Lewis, this is your room. The room card is here,” Vivian considerately said, then looked

at Xander.

“Mr. Fulton, your room is upstairs. Let me take you there.”

Xander gave Grace a reassuring look and followed Vivian out.

Once they were gone, Grace seriously assessed the room.

Not only the bed sheets were yellowed, but the curtains and windows had signs of wear and

tear.

Grace consoled herself, thinking, “Just a few days, and it’ll be over soon.” Then, she took a deep

breath.

“Mr. Fulton, this way.” Vivian led Xander to the best room on the upper floor, with facilities comparable

to a five–star hotel in Kidhna.

Facing such a spacious room, Xander’s eyes darkened, and he asked, “Ms. Myers, is this your way of

hosting guests?”

There was an implicit accusation in his tone.

Smiling, Vivian explained, “Mr. Fulton, we only have two good rooms in this hotel. I’ve
