Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 156

James felt at ease, and he immediately agreed to change their hotel.

They dared not live in any other 5-star hotel again, because most of them would likely have similar bedding.

However, another incident happened as they were about to leave.

While James was checking out, he was informed that the trio had spent extravagantly.

Last night, it turned out that Paula and her family did not return to their respective rooms right away, but went to the restaurant for a sumptuous feast instead.

The lavish feast cost approximately eight thousand.

Thank heavens the breakfast buffet was free of charge. Otherwise, the bill would likely be through the roof.

James was about to pass out when he saw the bill. “W-What exactly did you all order?”

“Well, nothing much,” said Paula innocently. “We just ordered a few dishes and a bottle of red wine. James, you know we don’t come by very often. It was just a meal. Don’t tell me you are reluctant to foot the bill?”

Flustered, James said, “If you all wanted to eat, you should’ve just told me. I would’ve gladly treated you all to a meal elsewhere. Why dine at the hotel? Don’t you all know that the food here cost an arm and a leg?”

 

With a long face, Paula snapped, “James, what do you mean by that? Your family owns such a big company, and are filthy rich. Would this even burn a hole in your pocket? All we did was order a few dishes. You’re such a cheapskate! What they say is indeed true—the richer the person, the stingier they are!”

James was about to blow a gasket, but Helen quickly intervened. “Leave it be, it’s just a meal! Don’t be mad, Paula. As for Jojo’s work, Sasha has already made the necessary arrangements. Jojo can officially start work today.”

Upon hearing the news, the trio were overjoyed. Paula exclaimed with excitement, “Are you serious? Is she the Managing Director, with a starting pay of 50,000 per month? What about accommodation? I have to say, the Grand Pavilion should at least be the entry level.”

Helen let out a sigh. “The accommodation provided is indeed in the Grand Pavilion. It’s a landed house of approximately 200 square meters, and it’s very well-furnished.”

“Now that’s what I’m talking about!” Paula chuckled with delight. “James, I must say, it’s such an honor for you to have Jojo managing your company. This treatment is really not too much to ask, right? Think about it! If Jojo works here, she can easily boost the company’s sales by earning 30 to 50 billion in profit. When that time comes, you will be grateful to me—heck, you might even think that you have offered too little!”
