Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 224

Leanna went back to her room, but she couldn't sleep anymore. She stared at the wall for a while and looked at the balcony Nothing. No movements. Was I hallucinating? This is odd. There's no reason for Aidan and the hotel's top brass to lie to me, though... unless I'm overestimating his ethics.

She shook her head and went to get a hot shower to relieve her tension. Just as she was drying her hair after a shower, someone rang the doorbell.

Leanna thought it was Elijah. She turned her blow dryer off and said that she was coming. Then, she changed into her clothes and went to open the door, but the first thing she saw after opening the door was the hotel's manager Standing behind him was an inscrutable Aidan. His hand was in his pocket while his focus was on the ground.

The manager smiled. "Ma'am, you said you heard something? Is everything well?"

Leanna forced a smile. "It's alright I was hearing things.

Aidan looked at her and said coolly, "You should try to solve your problems instead of running away from them."

Shut up, she thought

The manager said, "May we head inside, ma'am? If something is wrong with the room, we can move you to another one."

Leanna mused over it and nodded. I should let him check the room. If I hear that sound one more time at night, I'll lose my mind. She let them in.

The manager checked the room and knocked on the wall. He said, "There's nothing wrong with the room, ma'am, but you can have a change of rooms if you want Someone will check this room again later As a token of apology, we'll give you a free nighttime sightseeing session.'

C'mon, come up with an excuse. "Ma'am, it is our fault this happened, and you deserve compensation. Our motto is to make every guest feel at home. Please, you must take the gift"

Leanna was about to say something, but Aidan's phone rang. He picked it up and left the room. "What is it?" The caller said something, to which he answered, "Tell him to wait for me. I'll be there in ten."

After he was gone, Leanna shifted her gaze to notice that the manager was still looking at her.

There was a hint of desperation in his eyes. "Ma'am—"

Leanna asked, "Is he leaving?"

"Yes. He's leaving for Highside tonight"

She pursed her lips and contemplated on her answer.

The manager added, "Ma'am, nighttime sightseeing is one of our most iconic events, so..

"Sure. Thanks."

As he didn't expect her to say yes so quickly, he was caught by surprise before he responded a few moments later, "Very well. Seven to eight in the evening is the perfect time for sightseeing. It's almost time now Someone will lead you there."

Leanna said, "It's alright. I can get there by myself." A pause later, she asked, "Can I bring a friend with me?"

The manager hesitated. "Um..
