Tracy exhaled heavily and decided to keep it cool. They are just guards, they can't do anything if she doesn't act suspicious.
She kept her head up high and walked towards the room. The guards watched her as she did. She got to the front of the room and the guard in front of it stared at her.
“Mr. Norman is expecting me,” she said.
“I will have to search your purse. Take off your jacket too.” the guard said.
Tracy handed him her purse and took off the jacket. It was a good thing Alessa didn't give her a weapon like she asked.
The guard was done searching her, he opened the door and Tracy walked in.
She paused seeing two men in the room, she recognised one of the men who was Mr. Norman from the picture Alessa showed her but she couldn't recognise the other.
Does Alessa know there would be two men in the room? If she knew why didn't she tell her?
Is this the part where she is bait? Why the hell are there two men in the room?!
Tracy kept yelling in her head but managed to stay calm.
“You are here.” Mr. Norman said and Tracy smiled.
“Yes,” she replied with a smile and walked fully into the room.
“Hmm, not what I was expecting.” the other man said as he took a sip from his glass and Tracy raised her brows. She really hoped it wasn't what she was thinking.
“Let's get straight to business.” Mr. Normal said with a wide smile which Tracy found irritating. He picked up his phone.
“You are all dismissed,” he said on his phone before dropping it.
He turned to Tracy and smiled again. The other man also stood up from the couch and walked towards her.
Tracy smirked and took off her jacket which made the men chuckle. Tracy resisted the urge to roll her eyes and curse at them.
The other man moved closer to her and touched her hair slowly.
“It's okay, Tracy. It's just for twenty minutes, you will be fine,” she assured herself inwardly.
Alessa stared at the countdown on her phone as she waited patiently for it to end. She wasn't in a hurry, she wasn't feeling anything. She was calm.
When the countdown eventually ended, she stood up and walked towards the counter. She got to it and smiled at the lady behind it as she smiled back at her.
“Good afternoon ma’am. How can I help you?” The lady asked.
“Hi, I am Mr. Norma’s wife. Mrs. Norman.” Alessa said and the receptionist looked shocked for a few seconds but she was quick to hide it.
“Oh, okay. How can I... “
“I am here to see my husband.” Alessa cut her off and she smiled.
“I will have to call… “
“Nicky, right?” Alessa cut her off by calling her name. She looked at her name tag.
“Yes, ma’am.”
“My husband is cheating on me which is obvious right now and I want to catch him in the act. Aren't you a girl’s girl? Do you want me to keep being with a cruel man?” Alessa asked and she stuttered as she thought of what to say.
“Ma’am, our client's business in this hotel is… “
“Come on, Nicky. Help a desperate lady in need.” Alessa said. Nicky sighed and hesitated a little before answering.
