Nicholas then turned his attention to Katherine and exclaimed, "We've already seen the surveillance
footage.It was clearly captured that you were the one who locked Alexa in the room! Miss Wilson, if you
don't provide us with an explanation for this matter, your hotel may be forced to close!"
Katherine couldn't help but raise an eyebrow upon hearing such nonsense.
"Mr.Nicholas thinks that I'm the one responsible for this incident.Do you think I deliberately asked for
your youngest son, Robbie, to come over and let your family have such a scandal?"
Nicholas cared so much for their family reputation.
As soon as Katherine said "family scandal ‘ Nicholas' face could not be painted.
Resentment had already clouded his thoughts, and if it hadn't been for Gabriel and Lucas, he would've
attacked Katherine.
"You're going too far! We came here today to resolve this matter formally, but this is what we get
instead? You try to feign innocence, and to make matters worse, blame my sister-in-law?"
Alexa's sister-in-law, Laura, abruptly interjected.It looked like the Walker family had treated Alexa quite
well.
Katherine had clearly underestimated her.
Trying to suppress her irritation, Katherine narrowed her eyes at Alexa.
"It's not our hotel's fault.We are not compelled to take responsibility for this incident.The washroom was
being repaired yesterday, but Alexa insisted on using it and ignored the maintenance sign, which was
clearly placed at the washroom entrance.I kindly went in to remind them about it, and I also took Alexa,
who was feeling uncomfortable, to the room she booked.Our hotel followed the necessary protocol and
didn't violate anything.I disagree with Alexa's statement, she explained.
"I think Miss Wilson doesn't want to resolve this problem at all" Nicholas coldly exclaimed.
Katherine smiled, suppressing her frustration.
"Of course, I want to resolve this matter as quickly as possible, but this doesn't mean that you can just
accuse me of lying"
"Miss Wilson, what do you mean?" Nicholas asked.
"Exactly what I just said” Katherine answered without hesitation.
"Very good!"
Nicholas taunted Katherine as he slowly clapped his hands.
Nicholas was upset with how things had turned out for them today to the point where he wanted to
sabotage Katherine's hotel.
"Miss Wilson, let me give you a piece of advice.In business, it's not good to act so
arrogantly.Otherwise, you'll end up losing your temper for being too proud” Nicholas suggested.
His voice was still full of mockery.
"Thank you for your excellent advice, Mr.Nicholas” Katherine mockingly responded.
Upon hearing this, Nicholas' rage had finally flared.
"You're too young to know any better!" he exclaimed.
Nicholas then turned to face his children.
"Let's go!"
Alexa remained standing, stumped.
"Dad, are we just going to let this matter go?" she bitterly asked.
Alexa was worried that the Walker family would abandon her once they decided to let this matter
go.She knew she had to prevent them from leaving this hotel.
Alexa had already assumed Thunder would divorce her, knowing how much they value their reputation.
They wouldn't want a foolish woman like her to tarnish their reputation.
She couldn't care less about the divorce, but Alexa didn't want to give up without a fight!
"Forget it? How could I forget about it?"
Nicholas snorted and glanced at Katherine.
Katherine met his gaze, and the corners of her mouth twisted into a sly grin.
The others tried to press down their waves of anger as they glared daggers at Katherine.
Although they wanted to bully Katherine, doing this would be too disgraceful for them.
"Dad! I'm not going! If Katherine refuses to take responsibility for this incident, I'm going to kill myself!"
Alexa warned Nicholas.Her voice sounded desperate.
Alexa swiftly reached for the pen on the desk and pressed it against her throat.
Katherine stared at Alexa meaningfully.
"Mr.Nicholas, she's right.You can't leave yet.We need to resolve this matter as soon as possible." she
indifferently said.
As Katherine spoke, someone suddenly knocked at the door.
"Mr.Gabriel, the police are here." The voice came from outside the door.
"Police?" everyone said in unison.
Everyone stood in silence, stunned.
