The Lighthouse Hotel Chapter 7 - Mystery benefactor reveals his intentions for the hotel
-
Tom began to undress Lady Jane with his eyes feasting on her like she was some sort of exotic treat to be inspected with absolute relish.

Both of them laid on the luxurious 4 poster bed and considered sharing an afternoon of passion with each other.

They were about to embrace each other with a kiss when an unexpected visitor entered the room which startled both of them.

Tom quickly tucked his shirt in to his trousers whilst Lady Jane buttoned up her dress and applied a bit of lipstick to her pouted lips.Both of them appeared embarrassed at this sudden intrusion.

Leo- Dad what are you doing and aren't you going to introduce me to this lady?.

Tom- Please Leo it's not what you think,permit me to introduce you to Lady Jane Harwood.We were just discussing the staff rota and the various theme nights which I have planned for the hotel in the forthcoming weeks,now what's the time?.

Leo- Well I hate to be the one to break up your bit of fun but we are expecting our first guests to arrive in less than a couple of hours time.

Also "The Southern Echo's" journalists have arrived and are downstairs,they want to do a piece on our hotel isn't that a hoot?.

Lady Jane Harwood- Right Tom I need to be making a move as I have a few of my own personal commitments to take care of.I'll be in touch and here's my email address should you need to contact me tonight about anything.

Tom- But Jane I need you right now come back !!!!!!

Leo- Dad are you coming or what?.

Tom- Yes son and do stop ordering me about,talk about the tail wagging the dog,right the press are already here you say?.

Leo- Do we both need to speak to them?,I mean we've got a lot on and there are so many outstanding tasks to take care of.

Tom- Ok son I'll deal with the press you crack on with the staff rota and let everyone know what they're duties and responsibilities are for tonight,I need a drink fix me a scotch on the rocks will you?.

Leo- I'm not your bloody servant dad,get it yourself.

It was quite obvious that Leo's body language and negative attitude towards his father was in some part due to his earlier shock of seeing his father with Lady Jane Harwood,Some bridges would have to be rebuilt between him and his father.

It was unfortunate that he should have witnessed his father in this compromising way especially on this the most important day for both of them.

Leo decided that he would just keep up appearances and make his best effort at trying to get through the day.

Meanwhile Tom was addressing the press hounds and doing a fine job of promoting his hotel as not only as a quality business venture.He wanted to market it in such a way that would befit it's uniqueness with regard to the annexed historical Beachy Head lighthouse which was a great selling point.

The guests had now started to arrive in their droves and all were greeted by a cheerful Leo who was working flat out on the reception desk.He looked very smart in his white tuxedo jacket and long black trousers.

In total the hotel had a capacity of 100 bedrooms and all of them were fully booked up for the next few weeks which was excellent news so long as the service met the required standard of this 5 star hotel.

A variety of themed nights had been arranged in the forthcoming weeks which included a murder weekend,swingers club,psychic evenings,the magic circle club,comedians,comediennes,speed dating,live bands and a pink night which would encourage lesbians,gays,transvestites and crossdressers to come to the hotel's venue.
