Chapter 16: New Rival
After enjoying some time to herself relaxing on a beach chair watching the sunset, Velina waved at a staff member waiting not far from her to approach her.
"I want the bill, please!" She asked with a smile.
The staff then looked confused, "Sorry, miss, you don't have to pay for your order! The facilities for our platinum members here are all free!" he explained.
Velina's eyeballs grew bigger again. "Wait a minute ... I can access this place whenever I want for 24 hours?"
The staff nodded. "And I can order whatever available on the menu without paying? Does not matter how much my bill is?". Velina frowned when she saw that the staff nodded his head again.
"So... Basically ... I can live here for free, can not I?" she asked fadly.
"Uh... maybe, if it pleased you, Miss," replied the staff with a smile.
Velina felt even more amazed at Daniel Garibaldi's figure. She wondered what kind of business clients he would be servicing like this.
In reality, it was a common thing for the entrepreneurs to provide services for their business partners to please them, in the hope that their business will run even more smoothly.
Velina knew that Daniel Garibaldi ran a family business mainly in the petroleum sector. His company, Garibaldi Conglomerate, was a giant petroleum company that controls the three continents in the world that have the most oil resources.
Besides, recently, Garibaldi's subsidiary companies acquired the company named 'The Twins', which was engaged in mining gold metals and precious stones.
Velina knew about it because previously, 'The Twins' company was the main supplier of raw materials for her luxury jewelry company.
So, right now, Velina and Daniel were actually business partners, it was just that, nobody knew that Velina was the original owner of Vel's Gems, because she appointed someone to run the business for her as the 'Acting CEO'.
Of course, behind the scenes, she was the one who was secretly managing the business, all by herself.
Velina did not want to be the center of attention on purpose. She did not want to be trapped in a socialite circle full of intrigue and fakes. Among the three siblings, only Marino attended such social gatherings the most.
No wonder, artists and socialites always targeted him to raise their status in the socialite society.
What a jerk, Marino also used that opportunity to date them as he pleased.
Just by being seen on a date with Marino, ones can get gossiped in the capital's entertainment gossip magazines.
Besides he came from a conglomerate and respected family, Marino was also the president director of Val Entertainment, one of the biggest showbiz companies in Vanesia.
After being satisfied enjoying the evening sun, Velina immediately headed to the 4th floor. She wanted to take a sauna bath to relax her tired muscles. There, a staff member was waiting for her and gave her a sheet of cloth.
It turned out, in this sauna, people did not use towels as usual, but they were given a cloth that could be wrapped around their bodies.
Of course, the cloth was made of natural materials, so it would not cause irritation and itchy sensation when being used.
After that, the end of the cloth will be tied and buttoned, so that you could be sure that the cloth would not sag down from someone's body.
Velina stared at her reflection in the mirror. She smiled, very fond of the fabric that wrapped her beautiful body.
She looked like a country girl about to bathe in the river.
When she was enjoying her sauna bath, her brother called her.
She glanced at the digital arm watch she was using, showing her brother's missed call. Then, she immediately came out of the cabin and went to the locker where all her belongings were.
Not long after, Velina was standing in front of Val Entertainment lobby. However, she was not allowed to enter by the staff at the lobby because she did not have a permit card.
She then tried to call his brother, but the phone was not being picked up, not even once.
At that moment, graceful footsteps heard from behind her.
There was a gorgeous girl around eighteen years old stepped in accompanied by a swarm of staff following behind her.
From the appearance, she looked very confident. Her name was Mandy, an international top model who was one of the company's golden models.
"Who is she?" she asked while glancing at Velina, at one of the staff following her.
The staff member shook his head, completely unfamiliar with Velina.
Mandy just came back from her show at 'Paris Fashion Week'. However, because she could not wait to give her gifts for Marino, she immediately slided into the company as soon as she set foot in the country.
While Mandy was scanning Velina from head to toe, the elevator doors specially used for directors opened.
A handsome man who was as tall as 186cm in height with brownish hair and eyes came out hastily. There was a big smile plastered on his face, which made Mandy stand stiffly in place, dumbstruck by his sudden appearance.
Oh God! He smiled at me! Act natural!!!
Mandy screamed to herself.
"Sorry, I'm late! I had a little business to discuss with manager Wang!" Marino immediately approached Velina, hugged his sister, and landed a warm kiss on her right cheek when he saw that his little sister scowl at him without saying a word.
Without looked at anyone else, Marino immediately led Velina into the lift especially for directors and disappeared from there.
Meanwhile, the lobby staff was flabbergasted, they did not think that this girl who was dressed simply was being hugged by Marino in front of everyone.
Usually, Marino only dated beautiful girls who dressed up elegantly and also sexy.
Not far from them, Mandy looked very upset. She snapped out of her reverie and stomped at the floor in a huff.
Just two days ago she got the news that Marino was no longer dating Vera Diba, and now, she has a new rival already!
Aaaaaarrrgghh ... !!! This can't be tolerated at all!
