Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 737

James and Helen had an awkward look on their faces upon witnessing how condescending Minerva and Tate were. No longer able to contain her anger this time, Demi slammed her hands on the table and snapped, “Alright, you want steak? You will have steak and nothing else!”

Still standing by the door, the waiter politely informed her, “I’m sorry, but we don’t offer steak here.”

Minerva smirked in response. “Oh, Demi, you don’t have to pretend to be what you’re not. From what I gather, it’s illegal to butcher cows in Cathay, for cows are important farm animals in the farming industry. Tate, you might be sent to jail for ordering steak.”

Demi flew into a greater rage when she heard that, which caused her to yell, “How could you not have any steak? How is this possible with such an established place?”

In an awkward tone, the waiter elaborated on his statement. “My apologies, but our restaurant operates on a membership basis, which is marketed toward high-end consumers. Thus, our customers don’t usually order food that is of lesser grade.”

That simple line startled everybody into silence, including the Campbells, who found the revelation jaw-dropping. After a while, Minerva shot up from her seat. “What the heck are you talking about? I dare you repeat that again! What do you mean by low-end stuff? Haven’t you heard of steak? Only foreigners have them. It’s just like in the movies! Have you ever seen one? How dare you claim that it’s a low-end thing? How do uneducated people like you get a job here as a waiter?”

Despite her hostility, the waiter managed a measured response. “Miss, I know what you’re talking about. But still, I’m afraid we don’t have food that is of lesser grade. Why don’t you take a look at the menu to order something else?”

Minerva’s anger flared. “You sure know how to make things up! Alright, I will check on the so-called high-end stuff that you claim to serve!”
