Chapter 825 Got What She Deserved
Athena let out another burst of laughter, shaking her head. "If she thought she could bully us just because we’re foreigners, then she made a serious mistake. And now? She got exactly what she deserved."
Liz chuckled beside her, her earlier irritation completely gone. Watching Hera handle things so smoothly had been satisfying, like a weight lifted. And honestly, who would complain about more money? Even if they had enough, free cash was still the best kind.
After a short ride, they finally arrived at the top floor—home to the hotel’s only presidential suite, though it felt more like a luxurious penthouse than a typical suite.
A hotel staff member was already waiting at the door, standing beside a sleek pushcart topped with an elegant spread of champagne, fine wines, and gourmet snacks. It was a thoughtful welcome—clearly, the hotel had gone the extra mile. Knowing Hera and her group had just arrived from the airport, they assumed the guests would be tired or hungry, and wanted to make a strong first impression.
But this wasn’t just hospitality.
The hotel had been informed in advance that Hera Avery—the heiress of the Avery Consortium—was in France to attend the IGI Expressions Competition Finale, and possibly conduct a discreet inspection. With Hera holding a detailed list of all Avery-owned or affiliated companies, it wouldn’t have taken her long to realize this hotel was under their corporate umbrella.
Which meant the staff knew exactly who they were dealing with—and they weren’t taking any chances.
As Hera led the group toward the suite, the hotel staff member, who was, in fact, the general manager, stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
"Welcome to the Imperial Hotel, and to Paris, Young Miss Hera."
