Chapter 1040
“How can you let such an unreliable guy be your boyfriend? Wouldn’t Mister Rico here be a better option?” Audrey asked snarkily.
As good-tempered as Chelsea was, even she could not stand how Audrey kept on picking on Severin. Her face darkened. “Audrey Moore, I know what kind of boyfriend Severin is, so you don’t have to worry about anything. Plus, sticking your nose in other people’s business is really not a good look on you.”
Audrey’s face darkened too. Sensing she had pushed Chelsea to her limit, she softened her tone a little.” Chelsea, we meant you well. We should marry our own kind. We’re also worried you’ll be cheated by a sc* mbag.”
Unexpectedly, the restaurant’s manager came running into the room and said, “I’m sorry, folks. But someone has booked the entire restaurant so all of you will need to eat somewhere else.”
“You must be joking, right? Who’s the arrogant pr*ck that’s kicking us out?” Rico asked unhappily.
“Are you blind? Don’t you know this here is Mister Rico, of the Miller family? How dare you kick us out when we haven’t even finished our food,” uttered Audrey coldly.
“I’m sorry but the person who booked the entire restaurant is the mayor’s son. He said he wants to hold a banquet for an important figure. So we have no choice but to request you all go eat somewhere else.”
After a pause, the manager added, “By the way, Mister Harry said he’ll pay for everyone’s dinner.”
“Oh, it’s Mister Harry. We should just go then. We’re nearly done eating anyway. As for these wines… we can ask the restaurant to keep it for us next time.”
Rico immediately gave in when he heard it was Harry who booked the entire restaurant. He was definitely someone he could not afford to cross. Harry was known as a ruthless guy so everyone knew to stay away from him. The people who had crossed him all died under mysterious circumstances the next day.
“Good call, Rico. I’m actually quite full already so let’s all go,” said Audrey.
Everyone, including Chelsea, stood up. ‘This is so unfair… she thought. ‘But it’s not we can do anything about it.’
