Although I don't have the habit of carrying cash, it doesn't mean I'm penniless. Comparing myself with such people is undoubtedly lowering my status. However, I really can't stand listening to their laughter.

I took out my phone and showed them the bank's deduction text message. "Eight-digit balance, you've never seen so much money in your life, right?" I tried to speak with facts.

Unexpectedly, they laughed even louder. "You're still using the same trick from a few years ago?" Linda mocked, "Use another phone to type a text message and get whatever balance you want. What's eight digits? I have ten digits, too."

"It's embarrassing enough to use a fake bag, and you even have the nerve to take out a fake text message." Her words became more and more harsh.

Leo walked up to me and said with a smile: "You look pretty, why do you have to pretend like this? If you also want to take pictures, I'll arrange a luxurious room for you." He looked at me with ill intentions and said metaphorically, "As long as you are willing to pay, there is nothing you can't get."

I gritted my teeth and said, "You deserve it?"

Leo immediately got angry and said, "You are so shameless! This is my territory, get out of here right now!"

I responded without showing any weakness: "You are just an employee, how dare you treat the hotel as your own territory? Who do you think you are?"

At this time, Linda received a call and said in a panic: "I have to take some photos quickly. There is a very important meeting tonight. I have to leave first." She took at least hundreds of photos. Before leaving, she did not forget to fill her mouth with dessert, fearing that she would suffer a loss.

Others also took a lot of photos during this process, but after Linda left, they did not intend to leave. Instead, they took selfies from various angles at the location.

Leo threatened me again: "Why don't you leave? Do you want me to call security to kick you out?"

I responded coldly: "You can try calling the security. In the whole hotel, except for you who is new here, everyone else knows who I am."

The fake socialites who were taking pictures also took the time to mock me: "How long are you going to be so stubborn? How can you be so shameless?"

"I'm Serena Smith's best friend. Do you know who Serena Smith is? She is the boss of this hotel." A woman said proudly.

I am Serena Smith, but I don’t know the woman who is talking. I sneered and responded, “You are Serena Smith’s best friend? Serena Smith doesn’t know you.”

She was stunned and said, "Do you know Serena Smith too? How could a lady like her know someone like you who uses a fake bag?"

At this time, a middle-aged man came running over, sweating profusely. He was the real hotel manager. Seeing his panicked look, it must be the front desk who called to inform him.

Leo saw him and shouted with a smile: "Uncle, why are you back so early?"

The manager walked up to him and slapped him hard, making Leo dizzy. Leo covered his face and asked, "Uncle, why did you hit me?"

The manager angrily said, "You bastard! Get down on your knees and apologize!"

Leo asked in confusion: "Uncle, what should I apologize for? Who should I apologize to? What's wrong with you?"

The manager walked up to me, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Serena Smith, I'm sorry, something unexpected happened at home today, and I had no choice but to ask him to take over. I didn't expect that he didn't even know you."

After that, the manager turned to Leo and said, "This is the eldest daughter of the Smith family . The hotel belongs to her."

As soon as these words came out, the air seemed to freeze. Leo was stunned and at a loss. The fake socialites who were immersed in taking pictures also seemed to be petrified.

"She actually is Serena Smith."

"It's over, it's over. Her bag..."

"How could Serena Smith use a fake bag?"

"It won't break down, will it? Who can afford to pay for it?"

"Linda fell, what does it have to do with us?"

The woman who said she was my best friend lowered her head and didn't dare to look at me. One of the women silently helped me pick up the bag on the ground, handed it to me and said, "Serena Smith, we are sorry, we didn't recognize you, please don't bother with us."

The manager slapped Leo on the head and shouted angrily: "Why are you still standing there? I told you to kneel down and apologize!"

Leo was so scared that he knelt on his knees and kept saying to me: " Serena Smith, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

I walked up to Leo and said, "What do I need to do in order for you to get me a private room?" He was horrified and shook his head quickly: "Serena Smith, my stinky mouth is talking nonsense." After that, he slapped himself a few times.

The manager said to me, "Serena Smith, just tell me what you want to do to him and I will do it myself."

I said to him, "From today on, I don't want to see him or you."

The manager panicked and kicked Leo : " Serena Smith , I was wrong. I shouldn't have let this bastard take my place." "Please give me a chance. I can't lose this job." "I reminded him that this position is yours today and can't be given to anyone else. I didn't expect he forgot."

I said calmly, "No need to explain, just go away." I don't know what important things happened in his family and I don't want to know. But he hired someone like this to take over, so if something goes wrong, he must take responsibility.

I walked up to the fake celebrities and said in a cold voice: "You need more than ten people to pool money for an afternoon tea. How dare you call me poor?" "You post some high-end circle of friends. Do you really think you are a celebrity?" "Are there any real brands among all the designer clothes you wear?" More than ten women lowered their heads and dared not say a word of rebuttal. I looked at the person who said I was her best friend and asked: "You are my best friend? Have I lost my memory? Why don't I have any impression of you?" "We haven't even met."

She lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were Serena Smith."

I pressed on, “How many other people have you said the same thing to?” I didn’t want her to go around using my name to scam people.

She was anxious, looked up and said to me: "No, this is the first time, I just said it casually, I have never said it before." Seeing her anxious and about to cry, I actually softened my heart a little.

I asked: " Do you know where Linda lives?" She asked me to compensate for the tiramisu, so of course I had to go to her house to compensate her, and by the way, let her compensate me for the bag.

However, more than a dozen people shook their heads in unison. "We don't know each other well, we just met in the WeChat group." "She was the one who took the lead in organizing every activity in the group, and we only met a few times." "Serena Smith, believe us, we really don't know her well."
