Julie furrowed her brows in confusion.

“Why would she be crying? Is it because I wanted to give Maria some pocket money? What's wrong with that? Why do we have to treat them differently? Whether we Like it or not, both of them are our-"

“Stop! Stop!" Bill interrupted Julie forcefully.

It was rare for him to blame her, but his tone was firm. "Julie, what's wrong with you? We have already talked about this. Don't mention this again, especially when Vivian is around. Vivian is brought up by us. We are a real family. You can't just lump her together with Maria as if they're just the same."

Hillside Spa Hotel was Located on a peaceful and Lush mountain far from the city.

Because of its excellent management and outstanding service, it had become one of the best resort hotels in the country.

ALL of the trainees who were attending the training program were popular young artists.

Hence, in order not to be disturbed by the fans and tourists, the organizers decided to rent the part of the hotel with several independent villas to hold the training program.

A spacious establishment with nine rooms and two yards would be used as the main area for teaching the courses. At the same time, the villas around would serve as the dormitory of both trainers and trainees. They were grouped into three, and each group would share a single villa.

When Maria arrived at the hotel, the receptionist immediately informed her that she would be staying at Villa No. 1.

Hearing this, she remembered what Anthony told her when she asked for his permission to go.

The moment Maria arrived at the villa that was specifically designated for her, she understood what Anthony meant by he would give her special treatment.

It turned out that Villa No. 1 was the center of the entire venue.

To put it in simple terms, if the other villas were luxury houses, Villa No. 1 was Like a grand castle.

As soon as Maria entered the villa, she was greeted by the elegant scent of sandalwood.

She recognized that the pleasant scent was emitted from an ancient and exquisite bronze furnace. This scent swept away her tiredness after the long journey, making her feel completely relaxed and delighted.

What Maria didn't know was that even a small piece of this kind of top-level sandalwood was more expensive than a month's salary of an ordinary employee.

If she knew about it, she would think that she was breathing in the smell of burning money.

While looking around, Maria also found that all the furnishings in the villa, including the carpet, walls, tables and chairs, and even the most inconspicuous Little ornament were all delicate and valuable works of art.

In fact, some of the accessories looked Like the original works of famous artists and not just replicas.
