Chapter 300 Members of West End were already negotiating with the hotels security staff at the entrance.
However, the hotels security guards were clearly unfazed by West Ends reputation and blocked the entrance without hesitation.
Dylans face darkened, and he stepped forward, ready to force their way in.
Andrew quickly stopped him, saying, Dont make a scene! Dylan argued, Mr.
Lloyd, if we dont get in now, Finley might be slipping away soon! Andrew shook his head.
Relax, the effects of cantharides last at least half a day.
Natasha chimed in, This hotel belongs to the Rhodes family, and West End has a decent relationship with them.
Lettry.
She approached the entrance with a cold expression.
Move aside.
Im Natasha Vostokoff from West End The guards exchanged uneasy glances, clearly intimidated by her commanding presence .
One of them finally mustered the courage to say, Madam Vostokoff, the hotel has been reserved for the night.
Mr.
Rhodes has ordered that no one is allowed to enter or disturb our special guests.

Oh? Who has the kind of pull to book out an entire hotel ? Id love to meet them.
The guard firmly replied, Im sorry, Madam Vostokoff, but their identity is confidential .
We cant disclose that information.
Natashas smile vanished as her tone turned icy.
And what if I decide to go in anyway? Are you going to stop me? The guards stiffened and took a collective step back but remained firm, blocking the entrance.
Madam Vostokoff, please, theres no need to get angry.
A smooth voice broke the tension as Michael strode out of the hotel with a calm, confident air.
My apologies, but the hotel really is unfavailable tonight.
We have special guests, and it wouldnt be appropriate to disturb them.
Natasha narrowed her eyes.
Mr.
Rhodes, are you tellingthat even you wont givethe respect I deserve ? Michaels smile did not falter. Madam Vostokoff, you have my respect, of course.
But as I said, this hotel is off limits tonight.
If youd like, Ill personally cover your stay at any other hotel in Jayrodale.
Pick whichever one you want.
Natashas voice turned stern.
And what if I insist on staying here tonight? Michaels demeanor cooled as he replied, Then Im afraid III have to send you away by force.
Natashas patience snapped.
Everyone, lets break in ! Michael clapped his hands twice, and within seconds, dozens of men poured out of the hotel, forming a line of enforcers.
Natasha was unfazed.
She smirked and prepared to charge.
Mr.
Rhodes, do you really think this bunch of nobodies can stop me? Before things escalated, Andrew stepped forward, gently pulling Natasha back.
He flashed a knowing smile at Michael.
Mr.
Rhodes, I didnt realize youd taken up such a prestigious job as a... concierge.
L Michaels expression darkened.
Andrew, watch your mouth.
When did I ever beca concierge ? Andrew chuckled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWell, when youre standing guard for a couple sneaking around, its hard to call it anything else.
If youre not a concierge, then what are you? Michaels face twisted in anger.
He had not expected Andrew to know about Finleys antics i his hotel.
Still, he kept his composure, sneering.
I have no idea what youre talking about.
This is my familys hotel, and I suggest you leave before you cause more trouble. Andrews smirk did not waver.
Con! Dont play dumb.
Everyone knows Finleys here with Mr.
Giordanos sidepiece, doing things they probably dont want us to know about.
Michael exploded.
Andrew, get out of here right now!if Or else dont blone of my men dont hold back. Natasha stepped forward, her voice like ice.
If your men even think about laying a hand on Andrew, theyll regret it.
Michael was seething with rage.
Even Natasha, a figure he had always respected, was defending Andrew.
He could not help but wonder what kind of spell this freeloader cast to make these powerful women so fiercely loyal to him.
