Chapter 56

  Jenna..

  I looked up as I spotted the smart Hotel I had lodged in when I first came to Washington in search of Valerie. Collin Hotel.

  I slowly brought the car to a halt as I parked in the parking space while silently muttering prayers within me that there was a room.

  I didn’t make any hotel reservation. I couldn’t.

  I turned off the engine and retrieved the keys before climbing out of the car and closing the door.

  I sighed hopefully and walked towards the door nodding at the guards as I walked in.

  I walked towards the reception and got welcomed with a smile by the receptionist.

  “Hello, ma’am, how may I help you?” The receptionist asked with a smile.

  “I would like a room please?” I answered with a smile.

  Please let there be a room, please let there be a room, I chanted within me.

  “Alright ma’am, how long would you like to stay?” She asked and I sighed. It was such a relief to know I didn’t have to search for an hotel at at this hour.
