Chapter 1019 Reina Iyuk
"Reina Iyuk."
As Rudy stepped into Reina's office, he found the space temporarily vacant. The room bore the distinct mark of a manager's domain, with polished furniture and a subtle scent of professionalism lingering in the air. Just as Rudy was about to explore the surroundings, the door creaked open, and in walked Reina.
Her entrance was nothing short of commanding. Reina, the manager of the world-famous waterpark, carried herself with an air of authority. Dressed in a finely tailored suit that accentuated her figure, she exuded both elegance and competence. The material clung to her form, highlighting a silhouette that seamlessly blended youthful charm with a mature sense of confidence.
Reina's long, flowing hair cascaded down her shoulders, framing a face that reflected both determination and grace. The subtle play of light in the room caught the details of her features—the sharp lines of her jaw, the subtle curve of her lips, and the spark in her eyes that hinted at a sharp intellect.
As she entered, Reina glanced up, meeting Rudy's eyes with a professional yet friendly demeanor. "What brings you here?" she inquired, her voice carrying a mixture of warmth and authority.
Rudy inspected Reina and knew at first glance that she was the manager of the waterpark.
"For what reason do people usually come to your office?" Rudy asked Reina in a sarcastic manner.
Reina walked past Rudy and pulled her chair before adjusting the stuff on her desk. Rather than sitting on the chair, she sat on top of the desk, matching her eye level with Rudy.
"Surely, not for sightseeing," she replied.
"Are you responsible for everything that happens in this waterpark?" Rudy asked with a serious look on his face, betraying the sarcasting mood he had before.
"I am the manager of this place and it is my job to manage everything that happens in here. I take full responsibility for anything that happens here, but I can't take responsibility for the people's actions. They are responsible for themselves," Reina responded in a sober tone.
"Hmm, I like that reply. But I still see you as irresponsible for allowing so many people to enter the waterpark. Isn't it against the safety regulations of… whatever this waterpark comes under?"
Reina stared into Rudy's eyes for a few seconds before opening the drawer of her desk. She took out a tab from the drawer and she did all that without breaking eye contact with Rudy.
"Careful, miss Reina. If you stare into my eyes for too long, you might get infected."
"With what?"
"I don't know." Rudy shrugged his shoulders. "Perhaps you would like to find out?"
Reina broke eye contact with Rudy and took at her tab. She sighed and muttered, "I was informed but I didn't know it was this bad."
"What? Your management skills? Yes, it is." Rudy didn't miss a single chance to pass remarks.
"Yes, actually. This is the second time this week." Reina closed her tab and once again locked her eyes with Rudy's.
"Your periods?"
Reina furrowed her brows and asserted, "The only reason I am letting your remarks slide is because you are a customer. Otherwise, you would already be out of my sight."
"Come on, that can't be the only reason. You seem to have a false impression of me. You are thinking I am here to complain, but I am not. I simply want to know the reason. Why have you allowed so many people in the water park? Is it the greed of money?"
"No. I couldn't care less about the money. I don't only work here, this entire water park and the land around it— approximately half of this city land is owned by my parents. They are currently on their world trip, otherwise this wouldn't be happening."
"..." Rudy squinted his eyes as he took a moment to process what Reina had just said. He had no reason to not believe her, but whether Reina was lying or telling the truth, he wasn't interested.
"We have permission to have three thousand people at once, but I only allow two thousand. Customer experience and satisfaction comes first for me," Reina asserted with a resolute expression on her face.
"So the huge number of people is not because of your poor management skills?"
"I will be closing the water park until this issue is solved. Everyone will get a refund and $100 as an apology token."
"I… don't think that's a good idea, miss Reina. That would be bad for—"
"That's still better than being involved in the legal cases. I don't want anyone to get hurt because of the issue with the system."
"What's the issue? Maybe I can help? I don't look like one, but I am pretty great at solving mysteries."
"No, thank you. I would rather hire a real detective than a wannabe cheesy playboy."
"Excuse me, but the fuck? First of all, I am not a playboy, if I look like one then perhaps you need a new dictionary and read the definition of one."
"Hah!" Reina sneered out loud and covered her mouth immediately. Seemingly, it was an unintentional sneer on which she had no control of.
"What?"
"I never said you were a playboy; I said 'wannabe' playboy. It seems to me that you actually want to be one." Th.ê most uptod/at𝓮 n𝒐vels a/re published on n(0)velbj)n(.)c/o/m
'I don't know why but I am enjoying her remarks. She seems like a friendly person but I shouldn't get too familiar with a stranger.' Rudy thought to himself.
"Can you tell me more about the issue?" Rudy asked calmly.
"I told you I will hire a real detective."
"Maybe you don't need a detective? If it's the issue in a system, a technician can solve it. However, if you don't know the source of the issue, how are you going to explain it to whoever you call? Give me a few minutes so I can find the issue. If I can, let me solve it."
Reina couldn't help but raise a brow. Why was a stranger willing to help her with something? Of course, he needed something in return.
'If he wants money, I don't mind. I would be paying the official too. However, I don't think what he wants is money.'
"What do you say?" Rudy asked with a charming smile.
