Emmanuel waved a hand dismissively, signaling that he had no intention of escalating the matter.

The hostesses stood frozen, completely unexpected by his sudden leniency. After their initial coldness, his willingness to overlook their behavior struck them as a rare display of character. However, their relief was quickly overshadowed by a sense of professional regret; they realized they had potentially overlooked a connection with a man of significant influence.

“Mr. Lowe, please follow me. We have prepared the premier executive suite for your arrival!” Aaron’s respectful tone confirmed their worst fears.

The girls felt a wave of internal panic. Why hadn't they trusted their instincts? Anyone welcomed with such deference by Eve’s inner circle was clearly a person of high standing. They had not only missed an opportunity to make a positive impression but had nearly committed a career-ending oversight.

“Mr. Schmidt, we truly didn't realize he was Ms. Thompson’s guest,” Nina explained hurriedly, her voice trembling. “Mr. Lenoir’s presence led us to believe—”

Aaron turned a sharp, cold gaze toward Tobias, addressing him with formal severity. “Tobias Lenoir, I believe an explanation is in order.”

Tobias, sensing the shift in power, stammered, “Mr. Schmidt, this man has been at odds with my family’s interests. Why show him such professional courtesy? This could complicate our standing with the Lenoir family—”

“Enough,” Aaron interrupted, his voice tight with authority. As one of Eve’s trusted advisors, Aaron understood the true hierarchy of the Wolf Warrior Society. Tobias might be a guest of the club, but his attempts to use his family’s name to intimidate a visitor of the organization was a line that couldn't be crossed. To allow such behavior would suggest the Society was subservient to local influence—a notion Eve would never tolerate.

“I think it’s time for you to leave,” Aaron announced, his stance making it clear that the invitation for the Lenoirs was revoked for the day.

The security team moved efficiently, escorting Tobias and his companion toward the exit. The transition was swift and firm, leaving Tobias in a state of stunned humiliation. He knew that by evening, the story of his sudden departure from the Waterspring Club would be the talk of the city’s social circles.

Emmanuel, uninterested in the drama, followed Aaron upstairs. He had come here with a specific purpose, and he was eager to begin his discussion with Eve.

“Ms. Thompson is currently finalizing a meeting, Mr. Lowe. Please make yourself comfortable in our premier spa suite; she will be with you shortly,” Aaron said as he opened the doors to a grand, impeccably designed room.

“Thank you,” Emmanuel replied. He understood the demands of Eve’s position and was content to wait in the quiet luxury of the suite.

However, not long after Aaron departed, the door opened again. Emmanuel turned, expecting Eve, but instead found the group of hostesses from the entrance. They had changed into their formal service uniforms and approached him with a level of attentiveness that was almost overwhelming.

Having been a professional doctor, Emmanuel remained composed and observant, recognizing their behavior for what it was—a desperate attempt to salvage their professional reputation after nearly offending a VIP.

“Mr. Lowe, we are deeply sorry for our earlier lack of judgment!” one of the girls began, her tone now incredibly deferential.

“Please allow us to make it up to you. We are trained in the highest standards of hospitality and wellness,” another added, moving to prepare the refreshments.

“I am a certified specialist in stress-relief therapy,” a third offered, approaching with a respectful bow. “Would you like a professional shoulder massage while you wait?”

The six hostesses were now models of professional diligence, their voices soft and eager as they sought to provide every possible convenience. They were determined to prove their worth, hoping that their exceptional service would earn his forgiveness and secure their positions within the prestigious club.
