บท 2: Royal Land Hotel That I Own

"Hey, how's your boyfriend?" Rosalina asked Suzy while they were in the room talking.

"He called me two days ago and asked me to lend him some money but I refused. You won't believe he stopped calling me since then," Suzy said.

"I have told you about that bastard, he's only after what you have. Has he ever in his life done anything for this relationship or planned anything concerning both of you? All he knows is getting things from you," Rosalina said with a sneer.

"It's all clear to me now. Well, I'm too busy to even have time for him. I'll just find a time to see him and end things between us, maybe when we come back from your hotel," Suzy said with a smile.

"Do you still have feelings for that punk?" Rosalina asked, forming a disgusted face.

"No," Suzy replied sharply.

"Oh, but your face says something different from your mouth," Roselina teased.

"Whatever," Suzy said and laughed it off.

"How about your dad? Has he called you, or is he still mad at you?" Rosalina asked.

"He is still mad. Mom has tried her best to talk to him, but he wouldn't give in," Suzy said.

"I believe he forgave you already. Why don't you just go home and see them?" Rosalina suggested.

"I've been busy lately, but I'll find some time to visit. My big brother called last week," Suzy said.

"So, do you consider working in your dad's company? You know he has only you and your brother," Rosalina asked again.

"Hell no. You know the reason why I left home, right? He wanted me to marry his best friend's son, which I declined. If I go back there to work, that means I'm giving him a chance. So, I'm fine working out of my father's company, even if it's just being a secretary to that workaholic woman," Suzy said, referring to her boss as a workaholic woman.

"As you say, ma'am," Rosalina said teasingly.

"Yeah," Suzy said and laid back.

She yawned and fell asleep afterward.

Rosalina looked at her and smiled before covering her with the duvet. She stayed up for some time crying as she recalled her current situation but later fell asleep after laying down on her back with her face facing the ceiling.

The next day…

Rosalina had woken up early before Suzy and helped her do some chores and also make their breakfast and set the table.

Suzy woke up and didn't find Rosalina in the bed. She jumped off the bed and walked out of the room, strolling down the stairs. She let out a sigh of relief when she saw her setting the table.

"Wow, you woke up very early today," Suzy said and sat in the dining chair.

"Yeah, I've slept so much, you know," Rosalina said with a smile.

"Okay, let me quickly go brush and have my bath," Suzy said, looking happy as she ran upstairs.

"What's with her," Rose muttered to herself and shook her head as she headed upstairs to the guest room and quickly took her bath.

"Mmm, this is good," Suzy said as she continued eating her noodles with egg.

"Of course, I'm very good at cooking noodles, you know," Rosalina said with a wink.

"Yes. We should get going when we finish eating," Suzy said while eating.

"Why are you so crazy about this?" Rosalina said and chuckled lightly.

"Of course, I can't wait to see that luxurious hotel my best friend owns. I have always dreamed of going to Seoul, visiting some places, and staying in a good hotel. I guess you make it easier for me because my dream is coming true already," Suzy said jokingly.

"That sounds like you haven't visited any luxurious hotel in your life, and yet your dad is one of the richest men in Jeju."

"Whatever," Suzy said as she rushed her food.

"Hey, easy girl," Rosalina said and laughed lightly.

They finished eating and grabbed their bags for the two-day trip.

"The cab is here," Rosalina said as she looked at her phone. They walked out of the house and met the driver to take them to the airport.

After some minutes of driving, the cab arrived at the airport. Rose and Suzy carried their bags as they settled down on the flight to Seoul.

Hours later…

"Wow," Suzy exclaimed, making Rosalina smile and shake her head.

"Come on, let's go. The car over there is waiting for us," Rosalina said as they walked towards the awaiting car.

"Wow, my rich friend, just yesterday you have already arranged the trip?" Suzy said, making Rosalina laugh.

"Stop it, you're making me laugh right now," Rosalina said, laughing while they waited closer to the car. Two men, one in an expensive office suit and the other in a normal suit greeted them by bowing.

"Welcome, Ms. Yoona," the man in the expensive suit greeted with a slight bow.

Rosalina only nodded as the car door was opened for her. She hopped in, and her friend did too.

The car took off and he drove them to the Royal Land Hotel. They arrived and were welcomed by the nice atmosphere of the hotel.

"Only the director and the head manager should know of my arrival, is that clear?" Rosalina instructed the man from earlier.

"Yes, Ma'am," the man said and led them to the suite arranged for her.

Suzy couldn't stop herself from admiring the hotel: so big, beautiful, and luxurious. Two staff members came to help them with their bags as they took the elevator to her suite.

"Please have a nice stay and enjoy your day," the two staff members said together and left as they helped them to the room.

Suzy walked in further and looked around.

"Oh my God, this is a royal hotel truly. I mean it, Rose, you spent so much on this hotel," Suzy screamed as she walked further to the bedroom after checking and admiring how the sitting room was set.

"Wow, this is super cool, girl," Suzy said, exaggerating and slumped hard on the bed, feeling the softness of the bed.

"Are you sure you owned this hotel?" Suzy asked jumping on the bed.

Rosalina couldn't stop laughing at her friend, who wouldn't stop exaggerating everything.

"Come on, girl, you have tried so much on this hotel. No wonder it's one of the best hotel suites here in Seoul," Suzy said, smiling.

"Thank you, Ma'am, I appreciate your compliments and how you exaggerate everything," Rosalina said and bowed playfully.

"Come on, I mean it, I'm not exaggerating. I'm for real, really," Suzy said.

"Why don't we try the food here?" Suzy said.

"Of course, we have the best food and everything perfect here in the Royal Hotel. Please visit next time you come to beautiful Seoul," Rosalina said, almost like an advertisement, with a playful smile on her lips.

"Of course, yes, I'll like it here next time I visit," Suzy said and pouted her lips like a baby, holding Rosalina's hands.

"I want to try the food here, order please," she said with her pouted lips looking cute.

"They will bring in some food and drinks soon, don't worry," Rosalina said with a smile, trying to hold back her laughter.

"Whoa, yay, I can't wait," Suzy said, licking her lips.

In a few minutes, they brought in all different kinds of delicious food and wine while serving them.

Suzy ate until her stomach ached, begging her to stop filling up. She enjoyed the food as it was one of the best meals she ever had.

Rosalina couldn't eat much; she was now focused on her phone while Suzy could not even move from where she was sitting.

"I feel so satisfied today, and I can't even move anymore," Suzy said, and Rosalina burst out laughing.

"Good for you," Rose said and dropped her phone.

"Why does the food have to be so delicious, huh? Now I can't move, really," Suzy said, making Rosalina laugh again.

"Take some rest, and you'll get fine soon," Rosalina said while she continued using her phone and made some calls.

——————

Huh, it's been two days already? I don't want to go home; now I'll resume work tomorrow," Suzy said as they parked and got ready to leave Seoul back to Jeju.

"Lazy bone," Rosalina said, chuckling.

"Whatever," Suzy said, as they were driven to the airport.

Two weeks later…

Rosalina left her friend's house in Seoul to her mom's parents' mansion.

She got there with the help of her mom's diary she found in her luggage with some stuff she packed there.

She went through her mom's diary and cried throughout that night.

Her mom went through a lot. She found out how her mom got pregnant by the man her parents wanted for her after her marriage with that man, she found out that the man was also forced into marrying her, and the man had someone he loved as well.

They agreed to divorce since their marriage was inconvenient for them, while Mr. Hyun Woo, whom her mother loved, promised to accept her and marry her. It happened that she was already pregnant with her ex, but Mr. Hyun Woo accepted her and the pregnancy as his own.

Her divorce from her ex-husband caused her mother to have issues with her parents as they disowned her.

Yoona located her grandparents with the help of the address in the diary as her mother knew she would need it one day.

Yoona walked to the mansion gate and pressed the bell.

The security guard opened the gate and asked who she was looking for.

"Excuse me, please, is this Kang's mansion?" Yoona asked with a soft smile.
