Ice and Fire novel Chapter 766

Dressed in a sapphire blue dress, Alice walked into the restaurant holding a black handbag.

She looked around first before making her way to Violet while exclaiming,"Wow, it looks like someone booked the whole restaurant!"

"What a smart girl! It's a treat from a generous gentleman." Tim replied before Violet did, moving closer to Alice.

Violet opened her mouth to say something but hesitated and eventually decided to remain quiet. 'I'd better give Alice and Tim more chances to talk.' she thought.

"Isn't this Greg's treat?" Alice asked as she took a seat. Staring at Greg, she said jokingly,"Did you get a salary raise? When you squander money like this, aren't you worried that Violet would scold you for wasting money?"

"That's not your concern, Miss Alice. Besides, some rich guy paid for this, not me." Greg replied, as he looked over at Tim and winked.

"Who? Is there another wealthy man here other than you?" Alice asked, now curious. 'Whom is he referring to?' she wondered.

"The one sitting beside you!" Greg replied with a wry smile, still leering at Tim.

Greg's being a loudmouth annoyed Tim. He wanted to jump on his friend and kill him. But that was just in his mind. In front of Alice, he tried to look every inch like a gentleman.

"Tim? He paid for all of this?" Alice responded, amazed.

"Yes, this is his treat!" Violet answered, smiling.

"I'm a little surprised," Alice returned in a casual tone,"Whatever. Let's enjoy the meal."

Tim's broad smile vanished instantly. 'Is that all? Come on!' he thought, looking disappointed. Alice's respond was a little calmer than he had anticipated. He thought she would at least be impressed and feel obliged to him.

At a night club, everyone inside moved their bodies crazily to the rhythm of the music, jumping, gyrating and swaying in the middle of the dance floor. They were immersed in the heat of the sexy atmosphere. The DJ's set was good and almost controlled the crowd with every beat.

Tina stepped into the club in a black, leather mini skirt. Looking around, she couldn't find the person she wanted to see. She was at a loss. 'Where is this Mr. Mike?' she wondered.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Tina?" a waitress approached and asked Tina.

"Yes, I am." Tina replied. 'I'm not a frequent visitor here. How did she know me?' she wondered.

"Hello, Miss Tina. Mr. Mike asked me to take you to him. This way, please," she said politely, gesturing for Tina to follow her.

The waitress walked ahead to lead the way. Tina had little time to think and decided to follow her.

When they came to a VIP room at the far corner of the club, the waitress showed her in and said courteously,"Here we are, Miss Tina. Mr. Mike will be here soon. Please make yourself comfortable inside while waiting for Mr. Mike. We prepared the drinks for you. Enjoy!"

The waitress then turned around and left.

Tina entered the room, looking around. 'This place looks nice. I can come here with my friends next time, ' she thought with delight.
