The Wronged Heiress's Revenge
The Story
A traveler scoffs at a hotel owner for charging steep rates, labeling the practice as price gouging. He storms out to hunt for cheaper accommodations, yet discovers every lodging in town is fully booked by nightfall. Left stranded with nowhere to go, he returns to the first hotel and begs for a room. The front desk confirms no vacancy remains, crushing his past arrogance with public humiliation.
