Love and Deceit

[Hotel Magnifico]

The following morning at the hotel was quite spectacular and should have been very tasking had it been that Humberto was a novice at tackling the management of the hotel altogether. It turned out he was even doing a much better job than Gustavo had done in the last one month and couple of weeks.

The words he had just heard belonged to a timid looking woman, obviously in her prime and beautiful too.
