He watched her finish the walnut cake.
Then he gave her a piece of meat, "Eden, this is lotus tenderloin. Try it."
"Okay!" Eden nodded, "It's really delicious." She said while chewing, feeling so satisfied.
In Victor's eyes, she looked so cute. "These are the traditional dishes in Lemmon City. The food here is the most authentic."
Eden asked, "Have you ever been here before?"
Victor said, "When I came here for a business trip a few years ago, I heard about it."
"Oh!" Being rich was so nice. They could eat such delicious food.
When she was in high school and college, the Gienger family seldom gave her money. At that time, prices were low, but she couldn't even afford noodles which cost three dollars.
She hated to eat the same food, but she ate noodles every day in order to fill her stomach.
Eden ate happily, and Victor was glad. She liked the food so much, and he should have brought her here last night.
Halfway through the meal, Eden went to the bathroom. When she came out, she heard noises in the corridor. She looked over, only to see a waitress in cheongsam apologizing to a woman. They were surrounded by several rich ladies.
"Miss, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean it."
"Do you know how much the clothes costs? This is the exclusive coat of CY Brand, and it costs one hundred and fifty thousand dollars! Can you afford it?"
Eden was about to leave, but she turned around and walked over when she heard this.
CY Brand was a famous brand of Alwynn Group.
"But I really didn't mean it. When I was about to serve the food, you came out of the room, so the soup was sprinkled on your clothes. I really didn't do it on purpose." She couldn't even earn one hundred and fifty thousand dollars in a year. Moreover, she had her own life. How could she afford such an expensive dress?
"Just shut up and don't make an excuse. Don't you want to compensate me?" The woman didn't let her go and said in a sharp voice.
She crossed her arms and looked at the waitress disdainfully with her face full of anger and contempt.
She could make fun of these humble people recklessly, couldn't she?
She smiled viciously.
The rich ladies pointed at the waitress and whispered to each other.
"How could you be so careless? It's obviously your fault, but you blame Miss Pierce."
"Yeah, I am a member here, but I have never seen such an irresponsible waitress."
"Miss Pierce, don't talk nonsense with her. Call the manager here, and she has to compensate."
The three ladies looked at the waitress as if they were watching a good show.
They built their happiness on the suffering of others.
Eden frowned. It was cruel and improper to make fun of others.
Hearing their words, the waitress became more flustered.
She couldn't help crying.
It was not that she didn't want to compensate, but she didn't have so much money.
The young woman nodded, "Since you don't want to take the responsibility, ask your manager to come here."
The woman in a mink coat sneered, "I know the manager's number."
