Everyone wants her to be their lover or wife.
But she only wants to be the President of her dream Hotel, which her parents are managing.
Her one and only dream to be the Owner of her dream "Clair Hotel".
Merlin set out to do her daily morning walk-through on the hotel hallways, while devouring the rest of her cookies on the way.
Merlin Clair (๐๐)
Yummy~ ๐
She was meandering down the hallways, while humming.
Merlin Clair (๐๐)
Lalala~
Suddenly, she heard an electric drill whirring away, the echo reverberating throughout the lobby.
Merlin Clair (๐๐)
Huh? Is that....a drill?
Merlin Clair (๐๐)

She walked over to the direction of the sounds coming.
Merlin Clair (๐๐)
Huh? What?
Merlin Clair (๐๐)

She said to the construction worker, as he stands up straight, looking annoyed at her.

The moment Jolie shouted out those words, the ground beneath Merlin moved out.
Merlin Clair (๐๐)
Mo-Mom...This is not a good joke now...
She was dizzy as she couldn't digest her mother's words.

Jolie Clair (FL's Mother)
