Chapter 485: Javier vanished
NEXT MORNING
It was already early and suddenly, Jennifer, felt the sun rays falling on her eyes. She held the blanket near her neck and clutched it more towards her body.
Jenifer had still maintained the same sleepiness.
But the sunny rays didn’t invade and interfered to disturb her sleep.
To avoid the situation, Jennifer had easily changed the position of sleeping to the other side, and peacefully, she had once again started to fall into the deep slumber.
Yet, suddenly her mind had worked all together.
Snapping her eyes open, she saw the bed beside her to find it all empty.
.....
‘Wait! Where is Javier?’ She was all unaware of this fact. And clutching the blanket closer to her body, Jenifer had stood up from the bed to sit there and look all around the room in which she was currently present.
“This isn’t the same room....” she remembered very well, this wasn’t the room she had spent the night in.
Her fresh memories can’t lie to her face.
A complicated expression had taken over her face when her eyes traced to find herself fully clothed. “I had slept naked. How come I’m dressed up?”
Just her trench coat was lying on the couch and from there, she would guess that this was a hotel room.
But which hotel? How did she come here? And when!?
Thousands of unanswered questionnaires and to find answers to them, she had removed the blanket to walk and get her trench coat.
Taking it in her hands, she looked at her reflection in the mirror to adjust the dress and her hair.
‘But how come Javier disappeared just in a few hours? He had fallen asleep with me..’ she was damn sure about him sleeping beside her.
In fact, he had tugged her in his embrace last night after they had made love.
At this point, Jennifer felt pain in her openings till now. There was no way last night was simply her dream or imagination.
Something happened, but the next morning was entirely different.
To avoid herself in this position, Jenifer got out of the room to walk in the direction of the reception there.
From seeing the interior of the hotel, and the entire lobby of the hotel, she could guess that it was huge.
Reaching up to the receptionist, she passed them a sweet smile before inquiring, “I was in room 304. So...do I need to pay for that room..or is it already paid..?”
“I just can’t remember anything from last night. I had few drinks so..” Jennifer had deliberately made a sympathetic face to gain favors.
And even the lady had captured her signs, “I understand. Let me check the details.”
“Yes please.”
The receptionist had checked the details on her laptop before she lifted her eyes to look at the lady, “You don’t need to do anything, miss. The bill is already paid by someone, I guess the man who brought you here.”
“Brought me here?’ Jennifer was surprised.
As far as memory lane is gone, this wasn’t the place where she was with Javier last night. The room’s interior was extremely changed. So how come someone else paid? Did Javier really leave in the morning?
“May I know..under whose name has the room been booked? I just want to repay the man..’ Jennifer’s request was genuine but the lady made an apologetic face, “I’m sorry. These are the policies of the hotel..”
“But this is highly urgent. Please!” Jennifer’s face showed that she needed to repay the man who had brought her. And seeing her expression had made the receptionist understand that there was no way she was any outsider either.
Since the lady appeared from the elevator too, she could take up the fact that she had resided in the room herself. “Well..then..it’s under the name Lucas Smith.”
“He had already paid the bill for the room. So please be assured.” was all the receptionist answered.
But her statement made Jennifer’s mind go to the circles ‘Lucas?’ It was the almost undigested fact that she had been told. How come Lucas can actually pay for the room? She was sure that he had no idea that has stayed in the hotel even..
But if that was Lucas..then where is Javier? She was doubtful but it was a fact that she had spent the night with him. “Are you sure about the name?
“Yes, it is under Lucas Smith. That is all I can tell you.” understanding the position of the receptionist too, Jenifer didn’t falter about this anymore.
Taking her to leave again, Jennifer had stepped out of the hotel to wait outside and find the appropriate taxi to reach her house. Thereafter, she switched her phone on, to find that there were liberally no phone calls from her parents.
‘Did they forget that I wasn’t at home yesterday?’
She highly doubted but it appears so. After all, she wasn’t their daughter..
But when Jennifer was returning home with the uncut question, on the other hand, Javier was already getting restless in his space..
He was currently present in his car, which was driven by Ellen and Ryan sat in the passenger seat. Whereas, Javier had occupied the back seat while his eyes were already intending to look out of the window.
“I don’t understand, why did you even take such a risk, Javier?” Ryan can’t help but wonder.
“I agree with you on this, Ryan. Javier, you knew that this will be dangerous. You were supposed to keep yourself a low profile. And now..you have met Jennifer.” Ellen’s mind couldn’t digest the fact that his friend had actually had the audacity to walk back to his wife.
For once, he was angry with her, and the other night, he heard that they have spend their time in a hotel room?
Initially, Javier had kept himself in mute mode.
But that didn’t stay for long before he blurted things out, “You both..are creating a nuisance.”
“We are worried.”
“Don’t be worried then. I only met my wife, no one else.”
