Chapter 732: Chapter 750: Pain should be shared by everyone (3)

Ella Adams looked much more capable and spirited than she did five years ago, dressed in a form-fitting white suit that emphasized her figure to the fullest.

She had a smile on her face that was distinctive to the workplace. As she slowly turned her head and saw Elijah Smith’s face for that split second, her expression seemed to freeze.

It was just a brief moment, but he clearly saw her smile, just like the first time they met years ago. That night, he drove her back to Starhaven University, and she sat next to him in the passenger seat. Before she spoke, she smiled like that. At that time, he described her smile as a captivating, charming one.

After not seeing her for several years, her smile was still as beautiful as her name, making people’s hearts race and outshining everything else around her.

Elijah Smith felt as if he had been rooted to the spot, unable to move. He just stood there rigidly, staring straight at Ella Adams.

Ella Adams’ glass-like beautiful eyes fixed on his, for just a second, then she slowly turned her head, her voice calm and soothing, as she asked the restaurant manager beside her, "Where is the customer now?"

"CEO Adams, over there," the manager pointed politely in one direction and led her over. As they walked past Elijah Smith, the manager courteously nodded and greeted him, "Hello, sir."

Elijah Smith didn’t hear him, his eyes just focused on Ella Adams, watching her approach and then pass by him as if they were strangers, at a distance less than half a meter apart.

She still carried that familiar, light fragrance from years ago. He had asked her what perfume she was using, as it smelled pleasant. She had told him it wasn’t perfume but the scent of her shower gel, specially made for their family according to their skin characteristics.

After so many years, he had never forgotten that fragrance, only that time had pushed it further away, as if it were a dream that never existed. Now that he smelled it again, his heart started to race. He turned his head abruptly, looking at her, wanting to call her name, but she walked past him.

Her footsteps didn’t pause, her high heels clicked rhythmically on the black marble floor, echoing with elegance.

Elijah Smith’s hand clenched into a fist. After a while, he turned his head slightly to look at her graceful figure, his heart suddenly aching intensely.

...

This seven-star hotel was one of the Thompson Empire Group’s chain hotels. After graduating from Starhaven University, Ella Adams studied abroad for two years before returning to take over the hotel business. As the hotels were located in various cities worldwide, her life was akin to flying from one place to another.

At 3 p.m. today, she happened to arrive in Arandalle to inspect the hotel’s operations. In the evening, she received a phone call from the restaurant manager concerning a problem. The hotel’s general manager happened to be unavailable, so she came over.

The man demanding compensation was a middle-aged man, who managed to give his Armani suit an air of rascality. He had pulled his sleeves up, exposing half of his tattooed arm.

Seven-star hotels primarily focus on service, and troublesome customers are generally rare. However, it doesn’t mean that they wouldn’t encounter any.

Having been in charge of the Thompson Empire Group’s chain hotels for three years, Ella Adams was already experienced in dealing with such situations. Standing in front of the man, she spoke gently, "Hello, sir. How can I help you?"
