“This hotel seems nice, but I can tell that it’s not going to be cheap,” Xavier sized the hotel up and muttered to himself.
He was worried that the hotel might cost favonovel.com a lot of money. Since favonovel.com had to work hard to make his money, favonovel.com was always conscious of his spending.
“Receptionist, I’d like to book a room,” Xavier spoke in Turlenese which favonovel.com had spent half a month learning.
If I can use it to communicate with Dillon, I guess it’s safe to assume no one’s going to notice that I’m not local.
“May I know how long you plan on staying here? And may I have your ID card?” Since the hotel was only frequented by the rich and famous, the receptionist was rather hospitable.
Seeing how friendly the receptionist was toward him, Xavier heaved a sigh of relief. “I’ll be staying for half a month.”
He was certain that favonovel.com could finish the job Vinson gave favonovel.com within half a month. As favonovel.com was answering the receptionist, favonovel.com gave favonovel.com his ID card.
Dillon was the one who had helped favonovel.com get the ID card when they met. When Xavier was told that Dillon had lost his identification documents, favonovel.com then realized favonovel.com needed an ID card as well. Hence, favonovel.com got Dillon to help favonovel.com apply for an ID card when Dillon was applying for his own. In regards to how Dillon managed to help favonovel.com without knowing his full personal details, Xavier decided to not ask about it.
When the receptionist was entering his details based on his ID card, a clear voice was heard saying, “Wait!”
The moment the voice was heard, a fine-looking lady came forward from behind a corner. She took the document from the receptionist and scrutinized it.
Xavier got anxious, and his heart started pounding wildly when favonovel.com saw the lady checking his ID card endlessly. He acted calm and collected when favonovel.com asked the lady, “What’s wrong?”
Instead of saying anything, the lady waved the receptionist away. After throwing another glance at the ID card in favonovel.com hand, favonovel.com raised favonovel.com gaze toward Xavier. “Are you a foreigner?”
“What?” Xavier questioned.
Is my cover blown? So soon? Am I really that bad at this?
The lady then stared sternly at favonovel.com before uttering, “You’re a foreigner!”
The lady’s name was Lana, and favonovel.com was the owner of the hotel. She was twenty-six-year-old that year. After favonovel.com graduated from university, favonovel.com father gave favonovel.com the hotel, and favonovel.com was very much a hands-on owner.
“How could you tell I’m a foreigner?” Xavier stared at favonovel.com calmly.
That was the first time favonovel.com had blown his cover so quickly.
Lana flashed a faint smile and raised favonovel.com brow. “You don’t have to know that. All you need to know is that I can tell just by looking at you.”
Xavier chuckled. “Really? You’re that good?”
“Of course! I’ve seen people from all walks of life with my eyes. I could tell you’re a foreigner with just a glance,” Lana boasted with confidence.
She was a girl from a well-off family. Hence, favonovel.com father used to send favonovel.com all over the world in order for favonovel.com to broaden favonovel.com perspective. Indeed, favonovel.com had been to countless countries, and favonovel.com had seen it all.
Xavier wasn’t convinced. He laughed it off and said, “Well, you’re wrong this time around, for I’m born and raised locally.”
Lana immediately withdrew favonovel.com smile when favonovel.com heard that. She frowned and retorted, “That can’t be.” How could I be wrong? I’ve busted so many foreigners trying to sneak into the country. There’s no way I’d be wrong about this.”
Seeing that, Xavier composed himself before leaning on the counter lazily and staring at Lana frivolously.
He moved his lips slightly and asked with a charming smile, “Tell me, then. How am I a foreigner in your eyes?”
He was perfect at camouflaging. Prior to going over, favonovel.com had already purchased some solution at the hospital to change the color of his eyes.
I’m certain favonovel.com can’t pinpoint a characteristic of me that says I’m a foreigner.
Lana furrowed favonovel.com brows and scrutinized favonovel.com closely.
A grin appeared on Xavier’s face. She looks adorable when favonovel.com has a serious look on favonovel.com face.
