904 Jealousy
Meanwhile, as Penelope struggled to fight against her villainous friends and staff, within a very luxurious public estate, several men were currently seated around a table in silence while others stood beside them.
Of course, because of Baymard's influence, people stopped calling it a grand Inn but now called it a Hotel.
Now, unlike before, there were rules about where one could drink, and no more drunkards could be seen on the hallways sleeping there.
Now, breakfast and many other things were particularly situating within different rooms and buildings within the grand estate.
They even placed 2 rodes and threw fishing nets over them, and used the Baymardian balls to play volleyball.
Other sports like football/soccer, basketball and even tennis were the height of the show.
Of course, things like rackets were also gotten from Baymard.
In short, the place had changed. It was more organize and cleaner than ever before, making its high-end guests very pleased.
The rooms were rearranged, and now, the estate that had over 12 buildings, with hundreds of guest rooms, was one of the most desired hotels to stay in the Capital.
They even adapted the whole concept of single begs, double beds, Suites, and whatnot.
And some people were assigned only to wealthy clients who could afford it, while others were selected for middle-class nobles, ordinary folks and many more who wanted to spend the night.
.
Again, the thing that helped them out was that some Baymardian students from the Academy were assigned as interns here, thanks to Caronian royals.
These interns came over, cooked, mixed drinks in the bar and did a lot while being supervised by one of their teachers.
In fact, those in the kitchen had never known that cooking and drink mixology could be so intense.
Because they had to join these students in working and also learn a thing or two, they all worked under the head Chef, A.K.A the teacher who came from Baymard as well.
Their hands had sores from cutting and slicing the same things at incredible speeds.
Accompanied by the hells of the chef, many of them were under so much pressure.
From then, their former calm, slow-paced job magically turned into a fast pace one.
Before, they didn't care if their guests ate or not and were even rude at times.
But under the work ethics of these Baymardians, they picked up the pace.
They were impressed.
They also started a habit of sweeping and cleaning the place before daily and doing many things they never did before.
Even the bar had become very popular because of the Baymardians students.
Hey, someone even saw them make a flaming cocktail which made even one stay at the edge of their seats.
The various spinning tricks by the student barristers caught the attention of many like a magic show.
Many even thought of sending their children to the Academy in Baymard for such training.
And over these past few years, the reputation of the Bulong Hotel has grown immensely.
.
Again, What made them on edge was that once a year, the Baymardians would send people to come over and score all recognizable hotels in Carona, and the reviews would be in the newspapers.
This phase always made them on the edge because they never knew when these people would come.
If any bad reviews came out, people would undoubtedly want to distance themselves from the place.
And they were not ready to lose any clients to their competitors.
So far, they were one of the few 2-star hotels in Carona, and they would like it to stay that way or go higher.
They couldn't accept it if they dropped to 1-star all of a sudden.
They even bought solar Cathode ray Tvs, mattresses, mirrors, soaps, and so on.
Not to talk of the menus, welcome cards that they requested printed out by the Printing company in Baymard.
They truly did their best to upgrade and stay that way, bringing them more visitors than ever.
And even though they didn't have great plumbing or water sources... in Carona standards, their 2-star hotel was still an incredible feat since only a few have reached this standard.
2 years back, they even took an award in Baymard.
But last year, it was another hotel that took the award.
All this made many hotel business owners have now sat up and taken things more critical than ever thanks to all this.
And today, all around the hotel, there were decorations placed left, right and center that all celebrated the upcoming wedding.
But within one of the grand suites, some people were not so happy about it all.
.
Lover Boy, Prince Skye, glanced outside his window and frowned when he spotted a few decorations far away.
Dammit!
It should've been his day!
He had never seen such preparations before.
Even when he secretly took a look at the Sanpodia, the decorations he saw almost flew his mind.
The Sanpodia was basically the same as a place of worship... or a very, very, very, massive church.
The people of Carona believed in Eiclya, the goddess of Fertility.
They believed that she gave birth to the world, hence blessing and cursing everything on it.
And so the goddess place of worship was a very massive sanctuary like the Vatican back on earth.
Because she was a goddess above humans, they spared no expense at building a temple that could rival the palace.
It was so huge and could fit thousands and thousands of people.
And every royal that married did it here to receive her blessings.
So imagine the hard work the Baymardians put into making the place even grander.
In short, everything really ticked Skye off.
There was merchandise with his woman and that fat chum.
He lowered his eyes in rage as he felt like everything around was mocking him even more.
All this should have been his!
But no matter, soon, he would take what rightfully belonged to him.
'So you want to get married?
Over my dead body!'
