Chapter 124 “Let's go inside, you'll love everything that you see here.” His voice filled with pride and assurance. Jennifer nodded her head and linked her hand with Morgan's as they walked inside. The atmosphere of the restaurant was alluring. Immediately they entered inside, the hostess approached them, greeted them, and humbly took them to a vacant table. “Please, sit, ma'am.” She bowed her head slightly, gesturing toward a chair that was made of golden wood. Jennifer returned her kind gesture with a nod and sat, feeling renewed. The place was indeed nice just as Morgan had described to her. Morgan took a seat opposite her and smiled at her. “You love it, don't you?” He asked, looking around. “It's a nice place and their meals are the best.” Immediately, a waiter rushed over to their table with a warm and welcomed smile, handing two menus to both of them as he waited for them to make their order. Morgan was the first to scan through the meal and he gulped instantl
Chapter 125 “Stand up quickly!” Michael said, glancing around to see that no one was watching. “What are you doing here? Did you accompany Grandma Isabella here?” He asked after his bodyguard stood up. The bodyguard shook his head and replied, “No, sir. It's Madam Rose and Sir Fred that drove down here. They are inside the restaurant having lunch together.” Michael looked at him, his expression full of anger and annoyance. Before he assigned the bodyguard to be Grandma Isabella's driver, he had warned him not to let anyone drive in it. He became so angry that he slapped the driver, “What did I tell you? Didn't I give you a strict warning not to allow anyone to drive in this car? Or do you want me to fire you?” He shot at the driver. “Please, sir. Don't sack me, I promise that it won't happen again. It was an order from Grandma Isabella that I followed.” The driver replied with his hand on his cheek. Michael was quiet for some time before he said with a cold expression. “Ju
Chapter 126 He finally stood on his feet and said to Rose, “Wait here, I'll be back.” Rose only nodded while she watched him leave, heading to where Michael and Morgan were exchanging words with each other. “I was literally wondering what you have come here to do, but I clearly can see you have no good purpose for coming here, but to cause trouble,” Fred said, looking disgusted. Michael frowned at him but remained silent. And Fred continued. “Why would they allow someone like you to enter this place? This place isn't for people like you and you should know it.” He added. Michael giggled. “This place isn't up to my standard. I just decided to give it a taste and that's all. I can equally buy this whole place if I actually want to.” He said. Morgan, Fred, and Jennifer laughed. And Jennifer said, “Really?” She paused. “And you aren't even dressed nicely?” “He's just cracking us up and I'm enjoying his company here. I think this is the reason he came here– to make us have
Chapter 127 “How dare you come to my restaurant and cause a whole mess like this? Huh?” He held Fred's collar and pulled him to himself angrily. “Were you blind to see that this place isn't a place to fight or cause trouble?” He instantly left Fred's collar and held his throat. He was trying to take life out of Fred. Fred struggled to speak; his breath went straight inside of him, and he could feel life going out of him. Finally, he managed to say, “Let go of me.” He pushed Isaac backward and began to gasp for air. Isaac staggered back after the push but was held back by his bodyguards, whose faces instantly turned furious. Rose hurried to Fred's side and panicked. Her face was plastered with fear and worry, “Fred, are you okay?” She asked, holding him firmly in her arms. Fred weakly nodded his head and replied in a fast breath, “I'm fine…” He stammered, trying to regain himself. Rose instantly raised her head and glared at Michael, furious. She stood on her feet and ap
Chapter 128 However, to everyone's shock and dismay, the driver reluctantly shook his head in disapproval. “I'm sorry but I can't go.” He said, his voice carrying firmness. “What did you just say? You're not going? Why?” Maria asked, angry. The driver firmly nodded his head and replied, “That's because no one of you is allowed to drive in the car except for Grandma Isabella. I'm sorry but I can't go.” Although, Maria and Joseph had found the driver's words to be some joking type but it rather was too serious. Joseph's jaw tightened, but since he had always wanted to drive in this car to impress his friends, he smiled, knowing that this might be his opportunity to do so since the driver was refusing to drive them. His anger faltered for a moment. “Don't bother yourself, Mom,” Joseph said, “I'll drive instead since he isn't fit. Perhaps, he might be feeling weak or so.” He said as if he knew the driver's condition. He then turned and said to the driver, “Handle over the key to
Chapter 129 There was silence over the phone for a while and Michael cleared his throat and asked, his curiosity piqued. “Are you really a manager at the restaurant?” “Not really sir. I was sent to inspect the place. It's still my Boss, the owner of Diamond Hotel that owns the place.” Isaac answered. “Alright then,” Michael said, “Have you been able to talk about the house offer to Ella yet?” He asked. Isaac hurriedly replied, his voice laced with fear and sincerity. “Ah, that? I'm sorry, sir. I'm sorry, sir, I haven't been able to do it, but I promise that I'll do it right after now.” Michael chuckled lightly, “Don't worry, I'm not mad at you. Also, I'm glad you haven't. I want you to send back the money to my account, I'll build her a house instead of purchasing an already made one.” “That sounds nice. With that, she could be able to choose the type of house she likes.” Issac nodded and said, thoughtfully. “But how do you intend to do that?” He asked. He knew that M
Chapter 130The gate guard hurried and rolled the gate away without waiting for any reply. Jennifer eyed him with fury in her eyes.She ignored him, dashed into the car again, and drove into the compound. As Jennifer stepped down from the car, the gate guard was already standing in front of her with a remorseful expression.Just as he was about to apologize, a slap landed on his face. “You pig, learn to be awake.” Jennifer was the one who slapped him with her tightened face.“I'm sorry, ma'am. I totally forgot that you both went out.” The gate guard stammered through the hot slap, apologizing. “Get out of my sight!” Jennifer shouted at him. “I think we should also learn to forget to pay you when it's month end. It will be better that way.” For the moment, Jemmifer seemed to forget what was at hand—Morgan was inside the car groaning in pain while she was busy letting her anger out on the gate guard. Already ashamed, the gate guard turned with his hand placed on the slapped cheek, he
Chapter 131 The receptionist hesitated and responded after a while. “Sir, it's a birthday celebration and the celebrant had paid to use this hall and some other rooms.” She said while Michael was looking around. The receptionist then drew Michael's attention back as she asked, “Can we proceed with yours instead?” Michael nodded but wasn't happy at what he was seeing. “Sure. I want to book a room, any vacant one?” His attention was then focused on the receptionist. “Of course, sir. There are few rooms available but they are quite expensive.” “Why is it so?” Michael asked. He had thought that the infamous rich man who was celebrating his birthday would have booked and lodged in the expensive rooms alongside his gang members. “I think that's because it's expensive like I said. And no one has been able to pay for it.” The receptionist said and glanced down at the computer, going through the list of rooms that were available at the moment. Suddenly, she raised her and said,
