A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 648

Chapter 648 

Sure enough, just as Emmanuel picked up his cutlery and grabbed some 

food, Richie immediately sneered. “My, my, don’t you know how to pick! That 

abalone’s a delicacy! I bet one of them is worth just as much as your 

previous monthly salary!” 

It was blatant contempt. 

-Tia didn’t think Richie was impressive; instead, she found him repulsive. She 

knew very well that Richie was trying to strike a heavy blow at Emmanuel 

during the meal, making him give up. 

However, Emmanuel turned a deaf ear and focused on eating the abalone. 

After taking a bite of it, he wanted to take a sip of red wine. However, as soon 

as he picked up the wine glass, Richie sneered again. “That’s a 1982 Lafite. A 

glass of it is more expensive than your own blood.” 

Still, Emmanuel downed the entire wine in one sip, put down the glass, and 

smiled. “Why are you being so calculative? We aren’t going Dutch, are we? 

Don’t tell me your family can’t even afford to treat everyone here to a meal.” 

Richie was instantly stupene 

slightly ished. 

“Huh, we can afford a blind date meal no matter how expensive it is!” Gillian 

quickly took over the conversation, sounding loftier than her son. “Too bad Tia 

already has a boyfriend, and we’re all just casually having a meal right now. 

Can’t you, as her boyfriend, even pay the bill for your girlfriend?” 

Alas, the tables had turned. 

Emmanuel couldn’t help shaking his head. Indeed, those who were 

pretentious were often stingy. 

However, Richie misinterpreted it and thought Emmanuel was scared. As 

such, he behaved even more arrogantly. “Don’t eat if you can’t afford to pay! 

Honestly, where did you get your courage to impersonate Tia’s boyfriend and 

ruin our blind date?! You can’t even feed yourself when you’re jobless now! 

Can you still afford a car or a house? What can you offer Tia for happiness? A 

penniless loser like you should stay single forever and not ruin women!” 

The more he spoke, the more agitated he became, and spit even flew out 

from his mouth toward the end. 

Tia, on the other hand, trembled all over, never expecting that using 

Emmanuel as a scapegoat would lead to such humiliation for him. She felt 

deeply guilty. On the other hand, Emmanuel simply smiled and couldn’t be 

bothered to respond. 

Unexpectedly, Cain butted in and boasted, saying, “We own a family 

business, and we’re also partners of Terence Group. My son graduated with a 

degree abroad, and his cousin is a high–ranking executive at Longine Bank. 

What qualifications do you have to compare with my son?” 

Pfft! Emmanuel nearly spat out the soda in his mouth. Whoa, what a 

coincidence! Are they actually partners with Mackenzie’s company? Also, is 

Richie the bank manager’s cousin?! 

Meanwhile, Richie assumed Emmanuel was so ashamed that he couldn’t lift 

his head. With that, he prepared to deliver the final blow, wanting to make
