Cathy and Anna were waiting for Ben\'s intended photographer to arrive in the hotel lobby. Unfortunately, the twins refused to play alone and insist on accompanying them.

"You guys will only disturb us." came from the distaste tone from Anna.

"No. We won\'t interfere. We promise." urged Lizzy while putting the puppy\'s looks.

"Yes, we will keep our distance from you. We promise." Lina assured both her elder sisters, supporting her twin\'s promise.

"Keep your distance? I doubt it since you guys this close." Anna smirked and moved swiftly to tickle her siblings.

Cathy gasped when hearing screams escape from her youngest sisters while trying to avoid the sudden attack.

"Shhh..." Cathy hushed with put one finger on her lips, but she giggled amused, seeing her sister\'s behavior in the end.

She only looked at her three younger siblings with great affection even though she occasionally warned them not to be too loud when screaming.

"Excuse me..."

Someone seemed to greet her from the side, so Cathy turned to look at the person. Her eyes widened as soon as she saw that person\'s face.

What is he doing here? Cathy asked silently inside her head.

Cathy remembered very well that V Collection had refused and did not respond to her letter. She also remembered Ben told her that he was going to use his backup plan and hire a regular photographer.

Then... why is that man here?

"Hi, you must be Catherine West. I\'m Vincent, a photographer, to record the documentation of the opening in the next few days."

"..." Cathy was too speechless and didn\'t know what to say.

Luckily, Anna came to save her.

"Hi, my name is Anastasia, a temporary assistant. Nice to meet you," she politely greeted Vincent and holding out her right hand.

"Me too," Vincent replied in a friendly manner while welcoming the hand of the young girl in front of him.

Vincent glanced at Cathy... more precisely waiting for a reaction from the girl. Realizing Cathy won\'t look at him, Vincent sighed.

"Can we talk for a moment?" Vincent asked Cathy in a tone that refused to hear a \'no,\' but in a soft voice.

Alternately, Anna glanced at her sister and the cameraman. Why did she feel that the two of them already knew each other?

"Follow me," replied Cathy with an expressionless look and walked down the corridor to her office.

While the two of them walked and disappeared from view, the twins looked at Anna with a questioning look. Anna only shrugged her shoulders to sign that she had no clue what was going on.

As soon as Cathy closed the door to her room and made sure no one was overhearing, Cathy stood with her back against the wall beside the door.

She didn\'t want to linger with the man nor approach him, nor did she want to. She kept enough distance to sustain their discussion comfortable. Not too far nor too close.

"So what do you want to talk about?" unconsciously, her tone sounded cold when she opened her mouth.

"Are you still angry?"

"Is there anything that makes me angry?"

Once again, Cathy saw the man sighed.

"I know we started in a bad situation, but I would like to do my job professionally. So... I beg you for your forgiveness." Vincent spoke the word flawlessly as he lowered his head and made his body slightly bent.

Cathy was surprised as she never expected the man would lower his head at her.

"That night, I was going too far. I barely know you, but I\'ve judged you and treated you harshly. I\'m really sorry."

Cathy almost couldn\'t keep her mouth shut, or else she would open her mouth like an idiot.

Initially, Cathy, who folded her arms in front of her chest in an arrogant manner, instantly lowered her hands and stood up straight.

Why did she now feel like she was positioned as the one bullying that man? What a bother! Only Cathy could hear her complain.

Why does she always let her guard down against that man? The man had always managed to put her in positions she never thought of.

The first on the bus, the second that night in the gathering, and now it\'s the same. She felt like she always regretted what she had said once the man gave her a statement.

"No. I\'m sorry." finally, Cathy said in a soft tone while staring at the floor.

Of course, Cathy did not realize that Vincent\'s actions just now were just a trick to lower Cathy\'s defensive stance.

Vincent smiled, knowing his plan is working.

Vincent walked over to Cathy with prolonged steps.

"Since we\'ve apologized to each other, can we forget what happened that night?"

Vincent stopped his steps when the girl in front of him raised her face and looked straight into his eyes.

He was stunned and thought of the night he saw the girl\'s golden fleck inside her pupils for the first time. He again felt that he could not take his eyes off of those beautiful sharp eyes.

"If you don\'t mind, I also don\'t want past problems to interfere with our work. I don\'t care if you misunderstand me or hate me, but I don\'t want it to be just because of me; you\'re not doing your job. I wish the event would running successfully without any obstacles. That\'s why if you intentionally damage or interfere with our work, I won\'t just let you go."

Cathy turned to open the door to the room and walked out with a bold step. Vincent came out peeking at the back of the girl who had just left.

Is she threatening me? Pondered himself. He did not know why, but he found his condition very comical.

Without asking or talking much, Vincent followed Cathy and Anna, his guides, to see the rest of the hotel.

Occasionally Vincent would shoot the surroundings that he thought could be used as commercial material.

They are currently walking in a long corridor where there are various paintings on one side of the wall, while on the other side, there is a window where there are several of the same pots with different flowers.

As usual, Vincent took pictures of whatever they passed while listening to Cathy and Anna\'s alternating explanation. He was very proud of Vanessa.

He knew that when Benjamin built this hotel, Vanessa and Bryant designed the hotel. Vanessa once said that she designed this hotel with the concept of a comfortable place to live in.

Fresh air, beautiful scenery, and a lot of fun and enjoyable facilities, making a person feel at home living there for a long time.
