Chapter 1447
The numbers on the screen never moved, too.
Sean sat on the floor as he applied ointment on his wounds. He did as Lucas told him, and did something to Diana's
phone signal.
He did it in cooperation with the professor, to remind Julian to take care of his wife.
However, Sean had thought about it. Lucas was an outsider, after all. His words couldn't be entirely trusted.
Therefore, he decided to play some tricks of his own, like causing some commonly-seen faults in the hotel,
including stopping an elevator from operating.
If Lucas had other ulterior motives or intended to harm Diana, Sean hoped that Diana would realize something was
off upon encountering those faults.
He couldn't do anything in here right now. Although he didn't know what was happening outside, not causing trouble
to Daddy and Mommy was his priority.
As it turned out, Diana did realize something was wrong.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis hotel felt just like a huge tomb to her.
It was too quiet.
So quiet that it was eerie.
Her stomach felt much better, and the sense of urgency had eased by much.
Diana stood up and walked to the elevator. After confirming that there was no sign indicating an elevator fault, she
lifted her hand and pressed the button.
She pressed the button for the first floor.
Right now, it wasn’t just about finding someone to ask about the phone signal. She had to check out the reception
and ask if something had happened to the hotel. Otherwise, how could there possibly be no one around?
When she reached the first floor, the grand lobby greeted her.
Diana remembered that this place was crowded when she first arrived to check in. She had to wait for a while with
Betty before she could receive the card for the room she had booked in advance.
But right now, the lobby was empty except for one person seated at the reception, who was dozing off.
This didn't look normal.
Diana walked toward the receptionist. "Hello."
When she put her hand gently on the counter, it glowed under the light there.
The receptionist woke up immediately, and looked reverently at Diana. "Ms. Winnington!"
This receptionist wasn't the one who checked her in. At that time, it was a man. He spoke in a unique accent that
Diana found very special. Yet, this receptionist called her name so accurately.
Unease grew in her heart. "How do you know my name?"
'The professor told me," the receptionist said with a smile. " He said that you’re pregnant, and we must pay careful
attention to what you eat and use. All the staff here have seen a photo of you so that we can all serve you better."
So, this was all Jim’s arrangement. He was always so thoughtful and considerate in all things.
Diana kept this debt she had chalked up with him in mind, and pulled out her phone.
"What about this? My daughter and my phone can only watch videos and surf the net, but we can't make calls,
leave comments, or log into our social media accounts."
One entire day had passed. She hadn't contacted Julian at all.
There was a limit to how much of a princess tantrum she could throw. A measured degree made things fun
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbetween a husband and wife, but anything that crossed the line would be worrying.
Diana didn't want Julian worrying about her, so she wanted to fix her phone quickly and ask Julian if everything was
alright with him, and if he still wanted his pregnant wife.
The receptionist tapped her phone. After a while, she said, "I have no issues with mine."
She shook her own phone, then asked her other colleagues.
The conclusion they arrived at was that Diana's phone was the only one with issues.
Did both hers and Betty's phones malfunction at the same time?
Diana thought about it, then left the reception. She wanted to check things out outside the hotel and find a phone
shop within sight.
She didn't feel assured leaving Betty sleeping upstairs all alone. If there was a phone shop nearby, she could call for
a courier and a brand-new phone could be delivered to her within ten minutes.
The moment she stood at the entrance of the hotel, she saw James hurrying over to her.
"Ms. Winnington, do you need a ride?"
No matter how humble James was behaving right now and how sincere he looked, Diana couldn’t bring herself to
smile at him. In fact, she felt even more disgusted with his overly- humble facade.
"No need."
