Quinton leaned back on the sofa, legs crossed, sipping his red wine with satisfaction, feigning modesty: “Oh, come on, we’re all old friends here. I’m just running a small business, nothing much. I barely make five hundred thousand dollars in six months."But the grin on his face betrayed his desire to show off.Hearing this, everyone continued to shower him with praise.Meanwhile, looking at Alexander sitting alone in the corner, Quinton felt immensely pleased!He remembered when he and Alexander used to be good brothers.But because of Eleanor, they had a huge falling out.Now seeing Alexander like this, it gave him a sense of satisfaction.How could trash like that be worthy of being with Eleanor?“Hey, Alexander, they’re talking to you. Why aren’t you responding? Playing hard to get?” August Webster’s expression turned cold, clearly displeased.He didn’t expect this fool to just sit there eating calmly.Was he looking down on him or looking down on Quinton?Alexander laughed light
Of course, Quinton could see through their thoughts and smiled, saying: “Who wants to ride in my car?”“I do!”“I do! Me!”The girls hurried to the passenger seat, even fighting over it.In the end, Quinton looked at Jordan and said: “Jordan, get in. I’ll give you a ride.”He had noticed Jordan before and wouldn’t mind having a bit of fun.Jordan felt pleased, strutting in her high heels and sitting in the car.The other girls immediately showed extreme envy and jealousy.Then Quinton said with a smile: “I’ll go first. You all can drive yourselves.”Soon, many people drove out of the parking lot. The best car was August Webster’s Mercedes E, which he used to transport three girls, and he was very pleased.Only Alexander stood alone by the roadside, with no one willing to give him a ride.Quinton sat in his car, looking at Alexander with a half-smile: “Alexander, aren’t you driving?”“He doesn’t have a car. Let him walk, Quinton. Let’s go first. Let him find a ride himself.”Jordan sai
Quinton smiled faintly, waving his hand: “Ah, it’s nothing, just a few bottles of wine. You know, we run a company, so we deal with clients a lot. We understand wine well. Top Musigny wine from Domaine Leroy, thirty thousand isn’t expensive."Hearing this, Jordan’s eyes widened. Quinton had once pursued her.Back then, she was young and didn’t understand men, so she hadn’t accepted him.Now, she regretted it deeply, thinking of ways to get closer to Quinton.Unconsciously, she glanced at Alexander. The gap between them was too
After a while, the private room started to get noisy. Quinton, feeling excited, tossed the keys to his GTR on the table and said: “I've had this car for over six months now and don't want to drive it anymore. If any of you want it, just pay half the price and take it. I'm planning to switch to a Ferrari by the end of the year.""Oh wow! Mr. Payne, are you really that rich? A Ferrari?!""Truly, when you have money, you can do whatever you want!"Quinton shook his head, laughing: “Money, you can spend it and you can make it back. Besides, driving a Ferrari around is pretty cool.""Mr. Payne, you're amazing!""When you get it, take us for a spin."Quinton chuckled: “Great idea, great idea."Jordan's gaze at Quinton grew more passionate, it seemed she had chosen well.Ferrari!Over 500 thousand for one!Just then, someone suddenly exclaimed."Oh my God! Guys, look, there's breaking news. Mr. Payne, someone just bought out the Ava Beautiful SPA for 120 billion!" The person was shocked as t
Jordan, crying in fear, became even more distraught as more people criticized her. She lashed out: “I’ll pay, okay? Just stop pointing fingers at me!"She was terrified, her anxiety deepening.But the criticisms around her didn’t stop.Even if she had made a mistake, did she really deserve so much scorn?Wasn’t saying she would pay enough?Did they want her to kneel and beg for forgiveness too?"Alright, young lady, take a good look. These four bottles are Lafite, each one worth more than thirty thousand. Altogether, it’s one hundred thousand. So, miss, how would you like to pay—by card or cash?""What? One hundred thousand? No way! You’re trying to scam me!"Jordan was stunned, her tears flowing like rain.One hundred thousand—where was she going to get that kind of money?"Take a good look. This is the Iron Lions restaurant. Do you think we’d scam you? You might not care about your reputation, but we do. We have a business to run."The waitress's sharp tongue and cold attitude made
Yara’s face darkened, adjusting his suit, and picked up a piece of broken glass from the floor, saying: “Look carefully. It clearly states the year on this. If you don’t believe it, you can check online how much Lafite from 1787 is worth. I just want to tell you that these are the last four bottles in the city, genuine articles. Our restaurant has been in business for many years and has never overcharged. If you think I’m lying, feel free to call the market supervisor to check.”Yara’s expression was one of disdain, clearly seeing them as naïve.They didn’t even know about Lafite from 1787 and were talking about wine?Quinton was extremely shocked, picking up the pieces of glass himself, which indeed had the year 1787 on them.However, he would not admit it.4 million!The monthly revenue of Quinton’s company is only around seventy or eighty thousand, compensating a hundred thousand would be a stretch. But 4 million…!Where would he get that kind of money?Quinton was terrified, sayin
Alexander was about to leave, just stepping out of the hotel door when Joshua Thomas ran over, personally seeing Alexander off, respectfully saying a few words to him.When Alexander's phone rang, he took out another phone and received a message.It turned out to be from Jordan."Hey, about tonight, thank you. Are you free? I’d like to take you to dinner. (Blushing)"Alexander was dumbfounded, so that’s what Jordan meant.He smiled helplessly and didn&rs
On the other side, Alexander was taken to the hospital by Joshua.He went to Mary's hospital room, where he saw her playing with a Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs stuffed doll. She had her hair tied into two cute pigtails.With her big eyes, porcelain-like smooth skin, and a round face like a newborn, the little girl called out in a sweet, childish voice: “Daddy, come play with me."Alexander quickly walked over, sat down on the floor, and, pretending to be the evil witch with a wicked face, said: “I have an apple here. Do you want to give it to Snow White?"Mary glanced at Alexander and, with the tone of a little old lady, said: “Daddy, you're so childish, I don't want to play with you anymore."After saying that, Mary turned away, ignoring Alexander.Alexander, feeling dejected, spent a long time coaxing her before she finally relented.Not long after, Eleanor also arrived, and the three of them spent a joyful and harmonious time together.However, Alexander noticed that Eleanor see
