The Giver Ch 8

While inspecting the hotel owned by my family, I start to feel hungry after ordering some food at the hotel restaurant. Before the food is served, I munch on a small piece of bread roll for the time being. Suddenly, the lobby manager comes up to me and hands me a piece of paper. "Hello, sir. We do not allow outside food here. It has been 8 minutes and 30 seconds since you entered our restaurant. The total cost of your meal is 1,500 dollars. You'll be fined 1.28 million dollars." I am briefly stunned as I look at the piece of paper detailing the amount I should pay. Then, I take a picture of the piece of paper and send it to the group chat that has all the members of the board of directors. I tag my elder sister in the next message I send. "I've received a fine at the hotel owned by my family. Is this how you've increased the hotel's revenue?"

La veille de mon mariage, j’ai découvert mon fiancé au lit avec ma cousine — et cette nuit-là, j’ai couché avec son patron ! Tout a commencé comme une journée ordinaire. Il était dix heures du soir, et je me rendais discrètement dans notre maison pour récupérer mon voile de mariée. Mais en passant devant la porte entrouverte de la chambre, des gémissements m’ont glacée. Poussée par une curiosité malsaine, j’ai ouvert la porte. L’horreur ! Ma cousine Courtney, nue, chevauchait Perry, mon fiancé. « Chéri, tu vas épouser Irène demain et tu couches encore avec moi, tu ne te sens pas coupable ? » « Coupable ? Pourquoi ? On le fait tous les jours. Elle ne saura rien. » Courtney se redresse, pointe la porte et me désigne, un sourire ironique sur les lèvres : « Chéri, ta fiancée est là. » Le choc. Perry, déstabilisé, panique, tandis que Courtney, souriante, se lève et me confie, sans gêne : « Trois ans qu’on est ensemble. » La trahison se dévoile sous mes yeux. L’inimaginable se confirme. Furieuse, je tente de gifler ma cousine, mais Perry, dans un élan de protection pour sa maîtresse, me repousse violemment au sol. La haine m'envahit. Je hurle : « Perry… je te hais ! » Brisée, je m’enfuis, mon cœur éclaté. Ce soir-là, tout s’effondre. Au bar, l’alcool m’étouffe alors que je me noie dans ma souffrance. Un regard froid me capte alors. Nathan, le patron de Perry. Il est là, solitaire, au comptoir. L’alcool me rend audacieuse. Je m’approche de lui, le cœur lourd, et murmure : « Passe la nuit avec moi. » Lui, choqué mais intrigué, me répond : « Quoi ? » Je le provoque : « Ou bien… tu ne peux pas ? » Un défi. Il ne supporte pas qu’on le traite de faible. En un instant, son regard se glace et il me dit : « J’espère que tu ne regretteras pas. »
