Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 268

Chapter 268
The presidential suite was enormous, requiring two housekeepers to clean it together. So, Kevan and Larissa divided the task of keeping a watchful eye on each housekeeper among themselves to ensure the housekeepers followed all the regulations. They couldn’t be certain whether it was the effect of the leaked video or the special treatment for the suite’s guests, but the two housekeepers never made a single mistake during their work, unlike what was shown in the leaked footage.
However, Larissa could tell that they lacked skill in their job. It was clear that they were not accustomed to this particular process. The weight of her responsibilities suddenly felt heavy on her shoulders.
At that moment, Kevan’s assistant delivered a suitcase containing his clothes for the next two weeks, as well as a brand-new set of bed sheets and covers.
Larissa was amazed by this, but she understood why he did that. After all Bartham’s Regal Dynasty Hotel had recently faced hygiene Issues, and Kevan’s obsession with cleanliness already reached an unimaginable level for ordinary people.
She felt grateful that they were not actually married. Otherwise, she could envision herself being tormented by his cleanliness standard to the point of losing her hair.
The entire management team of the housekeeping department had left, and the new replacement employees had yet to arrive. So. Larissa gathered the remaining staff for a meeting first thing in the moming, explaining the current situation and providing preliminary training for the housekeepers. She shared her experiences from her time in Covenford, giving them detailed explanations.
Perhaps the staff members were accustomed to the previous work mode, as most of them showed little interest and even expressed dissatisfaction with her “new policies.”
They listened inattentively, and she even found out that they still had limited knowledge of what she said during spot checks. Larissa usually considered herself to have a good temperament, but these employees negligence and lack of seriousness pushed her to her limit.
Naturally, she lashed out at them, saving. “You can leave now if you don’t want to continue working here.” Everyone lowered their heads, but not a single person left. Well, that was expected, considering the wages for housekeeping at this hotel were more than double those of other hotels.
“Since you refuse to leave, you must comply with my demands? Larissa ordered.
Later, as she patrolled the rooms, she passed by the utility room and overheard a conversation among several housekeepers.
“That new manager, Ms. Seymour, is way too strict don’t you think?”
“She’s making a big deal out of nothing! Now that she’s the boss in our housekeeping department, she wants to show off her power in front of us.”
“Sigh, the previous manager, Lotus, was much better. What a pity
“So what? She made one mistake and got fired. Our hotel is really lacking in compassion
Instantly, Larissa, who was about to walk forward, turned and changed direction. She pushed the door open, and the housekeepers were startled. Their mouths were agape, and they were unable to speak for a moment.
“You seem to have some misunderstandings.” Larissa stood at the doorway, looking across the room at each of the housekeepers.
“Firstly, my strictness is not about showing off, but for the hotel’s and your own substantial development Secondly, I have limited interactions with Ms. Lotus, so I won’t comment on her character. But she wasn’t fired just because of one mistake, as you claimed. In fact, she had long been lenient with you, turning a blind eye to your violations of hotel regulations, which is the most serious dereliction of duty! And all of you are the main culprits responsible for her being fired!”
The housekeepers blushed in embarrassment and hung their heads when they were being reprimanded.
