Chapter 409: Lingering Evil Spirits (4)
After receiving Xavier Estrada’s phone call, Charles Duncan and his group gathered at the Seagace Hotel, where the waitstaff quickly prepared breakfast for them.
The breakfast was ample, and everyone wore a worried expression on their face, except for Bryan Hawkins, who seemed relaxed.
"Alright, let’s not be so down. Since this has happened, let’s just deal with the issue properly," Bryan Hawkins spoke up, thinking that the situation wasn’t as serious as he initially thought.
"Yes, Mr. Hawkins is right. We shouldn’t be disheartened. We’ll solve the problem since it has occurred." Charles Duncan supported Bryan Hawkins, knowing that being disheartened was pointless at this time.
"But our hotel has already received a government order for rectification. The quarantine results haven’t even come out yet, but the result of the shutdown and rectification is already here. I really don’t understand, we haven’t slacked off on our rituals and prayers. It feels like the government is targeting our Seagate Hotel this time," said one of the Deputy Managers after eating a couple of buns, still puzzled and indignant.
During the year-end events, they had happily hosted officials who often arrived empty-handed but left carrying plenty of gifts.
However, no mercy was shown during this unexpected incident, making it difficult not to feel angry.
"Yes, Mr. Hawkins, I also think that, especially Secretary Gu, I think he is deliberately targeting us," another Deputy Manager chimed in.
When they tried to negotiate with Secretary Gu, the old man seemed impervious to their appeals.
