Chapter 182
South Court No.1 Hotel.
This was the most iconic building in Aurora City, shaped like a towering skyscraper. The neon lights on the walls form the massive logo of the Kennedy Corp, visible from hundreds of miles away.
This was also the only seven-star hotel owned by the Kennedy family in Aurora City, specifically used to host important clients.
The hotel had three main entrances: east, south, and north. The east entrance was usually not open to the public and was mainly used to receive important foreign dignitaries and special guests.
Security here was particularly strict, and everyone entering or leaving must undergo thorough checks.
Even Caroline, brought by Nathan, was no exception and must register with her driver's license to check in.
But now Caroline was hesitant to show her driver's license, always worried about being recognized.
She dawdles, reluctant to take it out, wondering whether she should stay here.
Would she be recognized?
"Miss, please show your driver's license." The receptionist smiled and reminded her again.
Seeing that Caroline came with Nathan, the receptionist was particularly polite and stood by to serve her.
"Can I not register?" Caroline asked softly.
"Sorry, it's a rule. We have to ensure the safety of other guests, especially since there are several important officials staying tonight."
The receptionist still smiled warmly, maintaining a very professional attitude.
Hearing this, Caroline had no choice but to say, "Then I won't stay."
She turned to leave.
She happened to bump into Nathan, who was already a bit impatient. His face instantly turned cold. "What are you doing?"
"Mr. Kennedy, this lady is unwilling to provide her driver's license," the receptionist quickly explained.
Nathan's question made the receptionist a bit scared, worried that she might also get implicated.
Nathan looked at Caroline, his tone cold, "What's wrong with you?"
"I don't plan to stay."
"Give me your ID." Nathan ordered.
"Sorry?"
"Your driver's license!" Nathan repeated impatiently.
Caroline really didn't want to give it. Since she had decided not to stay, why should she hand over her ID?
At this moment, an employee ran over. "Mr. Kennedy, the leader will arrive in fifteen minutes. Do you need to greet him at the entrance?"
"I know." Nathan responded indifferently.
"Hurry up!" he shouted at Caroline.
Caroline knew he was about to handle something important, and it wouldn't be good to delay. She had no choice but to take out her driver's license and hand it over, hesitating for a moment. "No one will recognize me, right?"
"Do you think you're that important?" Nathan retorted mercilessly.
Caroline pursed her lips and glared at Nathan. This proud and willful gesture should have been annoying, but coming from her, it had a certain allure.
Combined with the faint scent of orange blossom, Nathan suddenly found himself somewhat attracted to her.
After completing the registration, Caroline was escorted to her room.
As soon as she entered the room, she almost exclaimed in surprise. It was vastly different from the place she had stayed before, so spacious and luxurious it was unbelievable.
The carpet was soft, the crystal chandelier dazzling, and the mahogany wine cabinet added a touch of elegance, making it feel like a fairy tale world.
"Ms. Murphy, please rest. Our restaurant offers 24-hour service. If you want any food from outside, you can tell us, and we will try to meet your needs." The waiter said politely.
"Do you have butler service here?"
"Yes, we can help you with anything, like if you want barbecue from the south of the city or cold drinks from the north, as long as the store is open, we can buy it for you."
Caroline felt the service was indeed good, but she didn't have such needs. "Actually, I don't have anything specific I want to eat, but I have a favor to ask."
"Please, as long as it's a reasonable request, we will do our best to fulfill it."
"My children are also here. I hope to bring them to eat together. Can you arrange that?" Caroline asked tentatively.
"We haven't encountered this service before. If it's adults, it's easier, but for children..."
"Didn't you say you could do anything? Why can't you bring children?" Caroline deliberately showed dissatisfaction.
The waiter looked troubled.
"Forget it, if it's inconvenient, then never mind."
In fact, Caroline knew such a request couldn't be easily agreed upon by the butler. She was just trying her luck.
"I'll ask my superior and get back to you, how about that?"
"Okay, go ahead."
After sending off the waiter, Caroline lay down. Since there was nothing to do, she might as well close her eyes and rest for a while.
Feeling bored, she took out her phone and started browsing social media.
She suddenly found that the negative reports about her had significantly decreased, with mainstream media almost not mentioning her anymore.
Obviously, someone had done some PR work, and the only person with such power could be Nathan.
Additionally, she saw a piece of news. #New star Demi would participate in a charity event with famous actor Sawyer.
The news mentioned that a month ago, Sawyer's studio had donated ten million dollars to build a primary school in a poor mountainous area. Caroline was also involved, donating goods worth five million dollars.
The local charity organization invited Sawyer, Demi, and the Kennedy Corp to participate in the upcoming donation event.
According to reports, the goods Caroline donated were worth five million dollars.
She read the content several times, and the pictures were indeed from the night they were at the barbecue restaurant.
But when did she ever have five million dollars for charity? She was so broke she could barely pay her rent.
A very influential major media outlet reported on it, which changed the public's perception of Sawyer and her. Instead of seeing their relationship as scandalous, people now viewed them as coming together for charity.
And once the news was published, it quickly spread, with many netizens who had previously criticized them now expressing support.
