Chapter 803 - Ls Worry (1/2)

The next day London had breakfast at the penthouse and started working from there. He had told Jan that he was not going to the office and would work remotely from London.

Marc was sitting in the corner of the room while reading something. He was ready at any time to carry out his boss's orders if needed. London himself focused on various reports which he had to understand before the upcoming medical conference in Berlin.

While working in the penthouse, London monitored L's activities all day through Dave, who followed the girl everywhere. He learned that L had dine-in breakfast then went out early to a lawyer's office in the city center.

”Hmmm ... maybe she really wanted to claim part of her inheritance from George Swann's will,” murmured London. Inwardly, he was not happy to see L receive money or wealth from other people. Still, he knew he had no right to forbid L to do anything she wanted to do.

London could only sigh. He did not know if L would change if she managed to get half of the Swann family's assets. Will wealth make L change?

L walked with quick steps into the hotel lobby. Her face was hidden behind a thick scarf and sunglasses. Her hair was fashioned into a small bun above her head, making her look very elegant.

She pushed the baby stroller containing Lily, who was sleeping under a thick blanket. At first glance, the two did not attract attention. However, the check-in staff who checked her into the hotel last night still recognized L even though she tried to hide her face.

The man hurriedly walked over to L and bowed respectfully to her.

”Good afternoon, Madam. Welcome back,” the staff greeted her respectfully.

”Good day.” L just nodded. She was about to continue her walk to the elevator, but the hotel staff raised his hand and gave a sign for L to follow him. This made L wonder. ”Uhm ... what's up, huh? I'm in a hurry.”

”I'm sorry, Madam. We didn't recognize you yesterday,” the officer said.

”What do you mean? You know who I am. I gave you my identity card ...” said L, who was getting impatient. ”Please don't waste my time.”

”Ma'am ... no, that's not what I meant. We didn't know that Madam was staying with the little Young Miss of the Schneider family. We were ordered by the boss to upgrade your room. Please don't refuse the upgrade. I will be reprimanded if I don't do my job ...”

Seeing the pleading look on the staff's face, finally, L became impatient. She could guess who was responsible for the upgrade this time. Surely that annoying Santa, she thought.

Didn't I tell you that I don't want to keep accepting favors?

L was surprised to hear her cellphone ring. While walking along with the hotel staff, she opened her cellphone and read the incoming SMS from London Schneider.

[Why didn't you tell me that you are staying at St. Laurent? You and Lily were supposed to stay in the penthouse. If you want to live poorly in a mere deluxe room, don't bring Lily with you. I don't want you to take my daughter only to live a difficult life with you.]

L read the SMS with squinted eyes. She was about to reply to the text, but her attention was diverted by the hotel staff who had given her a new key.

”We will move your belongings to the Presidential Suite soon. You can come with me now, I will take you to the new place.”

L could only nod. She put her cellphone away and received a key from the hotel staff without saying anything. L then walked following the staff into the elevator and went up to the 30th floor. After walking down the hall to the end, they arrived in front of a large door.

”Please come in and take a rest. Later, if you need anything, please just press this bell, we will send a butler to help you.”
