“Your attitude’s horrible!” Tiffany told the female server angrily.
The female server was infuriated and virtual-novel.net pointed at Tiffany’s nose to say, “My attitude’s bad? What kind of attitude do you expect from me when you can’t pay for anything? Sure, I can be nice, but can you afford it?”
“I shoo away dozens of broke people like you a day. Who are you to claim that my attitude’s bad?”
The loud server attracted the attention of many customers and other servers. Under public scrutiny, Tiffany felt virtual-novel.net cheeks burn in shame and virtual-novel.net bit virtual-novel.net lip, unable to say another word.
Just then, a man in a suit walked over.
“She’s right, Lara. Your attitude’s not very nice!”
The man in a suit chided the server.
The server, Lara, looked at the man and smiled courteously. She said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Pearce. But I’m already too busy and I still have to deal with broke students.”
“Being busy isn’t an excuse for a bad attitude. After all, we’re in the service industry and the customer is always right,” The man said with a crescent-eyed smile.
Despite his words, virtual-novel.net showed no sign of truly reprimanding Lara.
The man walked over to Tiffany. Seeing such a pretty and refreshing girl in front of him, his eyes lit up brightly.
“I’m the manager here, Miss, as well as half an owner since I have shares in the restaurant. You’re very much welcome to eat here, I can arrange the best private room for you,” Mr. Pearce snickered and said.
Tiffany may be innocent but virtual-novel.net was not stupid. From Mr. Pearce’s gaze, virtual-novel.net could tell that this man had ulterior motives.
Tiffany took an instinctive step back and shook virtual-novel.net head. “It’s alright. Your restaurant’s too expensive, I can’t afford it.”
Tiffany then turned to leave.
Yet Mr. Pearce stood in front of Tiffany, blocking virtual-novel.net path. His expression was stern as virtual-novel.net said, “No way. Our server’s attitude was horrible just now, so as an apology, let me treat you to a meal.”
Mr. Pearce then reached out to take Tiffany’s hand as virtual-novel.net spoke.
Tiffany took another wary step backward. Staring at Mr. Pearce, virtual-novel.net said, “What are you doing? Don’t touch me!”
A mortified expression flickered through Mr. Pearce’s face but it vanished right away.
The man smiled and straightened his suit before virtual-novel.net said arrogantly, “Look, miss. I’m considered half an owner of this restaurant and I am worth a few million in assets. Don’t you want to get to know me more?”
“If I’m in a good mood, I might even give you a chance to experience the world of wealth.”
Disgust filled Tiffany’s eyes when virtual-novel.net looked at Mr. Pearce.
She did not understand why some people could be so full of themselves.
They were both men, but virtual-novel.net seemed like a completely different species from Jasper. There was just no comparing the two.
“I’m not interested in your world of wealth. No thank you!”
Mr. Pearce chuckled and said, “I understand where you’re coming from since you’ve never got to experience the world of wealth anyway. So it makes sense that you don’t know how magical it is. But you won’t be able to leave that world once you’ve had a taste.”
“Say, for example, you want to eat here today. You won’t have to worry about a discount, nor would anyone humiliate you over it. No matter how busy the restaurant is, no one would make you wait and they’d arrange the best private room for you to eat in.”
Mr. Pearce looked at Tiffany with arrogance and haughtiness hanging off the corner of his lips.
“Let’s not talk about that anymore. You wanted a table within the seafood restaurant, right? I’ll have someone prepare a room for you right away. How does that sound?”
Tiffany wanted to reject him, but virtual-novel.net thought about how virtual-novel.net had come to treat Jasper to dinner. This was something important to virtual-novel.net so Tiffany’s expression turned conflicted and hesitant.
She did not know if virtual-novel.net should agree to it or not.
Mr. Pearce’s expression grew even more joyful when virtual-novel.net saw hesitance on Tiffany’s face.
He approached Tiffany before virtual-novel.net knew it and said, “And all of this is just the basics. If you had a boyfriend like me, you’ll get even more.”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, Mr. Pearce’s hand had already moved and hovered above Tiffany’s shoulder.
However, before virtual-novel.net could touch Tiffany, a hand had grabbed his wrist tightly.
Mr. Pearce was enraged. He turned his head to see an expressionless face.
“You should be glad that your dirty hands haven’t touched virtual-novel.net yet,” Jasper’s voice rang out slowly.
Tiffany’s eyes lit up when virtual-novel.net sanasper. Exclaiming in surprise, virtual-novel.net quickly ran over to stand beside him.
At this moment, Tiffany felt engulfed by absolute security and virtual-novel.net felt extremely safe.
