Making a Comeback

Chapter 15 A Free Meal

Tyrone only chuckled in the face of Yasmine's mockery.

Soon, they arrived at The Gardens, the restaurant where Ysabella had booked a reservation. When they walked in, Yasmine rushed toward the private room to find Ysabella waiting for them. Ysabella greeted Yasmine, "Minnie, you're finally here."

Just as they were about to hug, a waiter who was passing by accidentally bumped into Yasmine. The red wine he'd been carrying splashed onto her white jacket. Even Ysabella's shirt was stained with red dots.

The waiter quickly apologized, "Sorry! I'm so sorry!"

"It's fine. You don't need to feel sorry," Ysabella said as she quickly took out tissues to wipe Yasmine's jacket.

"What's going on?" A lavishly dressed woman in heavy makeup elegantly walked over to them in heels.

Ysabella smiled. "Felicia!"

Felicia Rich was her high school classmate, and they shared a close relationship. Felicia was also surprised to see Ysabella. Then she scolded the waiter, "What happened?"

"Fefe, don't worry about it. We accidentally bumped into each other and spilled the wine," Ysabella quickly explained out of fear that Felicia would blame the waiter.

The waiter stuttered, "I—I'm sorry!"

"It's fine." Ysabella didn't want to cause any trouble.

"These are my distinguished guests! You should serve them with all due respect!" Felicia scolded. Then she pulled Ysabella's hand, apologizing, "I'm really sorry, Ysabella. I didn't know you were coming. Please order a few more dishes and put them on my tab!"

"It's fine, but thank you."

"Why are you being so polite with me? It's what I should do!"

"Ms. Rich, someone is looking for you," a waiter whispered in her ear.

Looking embarrassed, Felicia said, "I'm sorry, I have something to take care of. I'll leave you guys to enjoy your dinner."

Ysabella took Yasmine into the private room after she saw Felicia leave. Soon after, the waiter served the dishes they had ordered. First, they served some appetizers before bringing in lobsters, steak, and other side dishes. There was even a bottle of red wine.

"How could we possibly accept this?" Ysbella thought it would be some normal dishes, but they had been served a table of delicacies instead.

Vania sighed, "Wow! Ysabella, you should be proud of yourself."

After the door to the private room closed, Felicia quietly stood near the door, looking at the people inside with a cold smile.

Suddenly, a lady who looked extremely similar to her appeared. It was Ashley Rich, Felicia's sister. "Felicia, do you really think it'll work?"

Felicia shook her head disdainfully. "Don't worry. I'll definitely make those who bullied you cry in pain."

"But if you do that to Ysabella—"

Felicia sneered, "I've always found Ysabella to be an eyesore. All the guys I had a crush on pursued her, but she married a useless bastard in the end. Let's see who will help her pay the bill today."

…

Inside the private room, Tyrone had a bad feeling as he looked at the delicacies. "Honey, what's your relationship with Felicia Rich?"

Ysabella answered, "We're high school classmates, but it's been quite some time since we've met."

"Why is she being so generous with treating us?" Tyrone asked.

"Can't you see she's the assistant general manager here? Do you think she would care about such a small amount of money like you? All you do is leech off my sister." Yasmine rolled her eyes as she ridiculed Tyrone.

"Yasmine, stop it!" Ysabella rebuked her. "It's been a long time since we've met, so I think Felicia's just being kind. Stop worrying and eat. Nothing will happen."

Tyrone still had a bad feeling about it, but seeing that Vania had started feasting on the food, he decided to just deal with the problem when it arose.
