My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 202

Halfway through their journey, they crossed paths with a luxury car ferrying Nora, Joanne, and their family members.

Nora strutted over to the two with a smile. "Sorry, I was too focused on your grandpa just now to look after you. You haven't eaten, have you? I'll treat both of you to a meal."

Snickering, Loid said, "Thank you, Aunt Nora."

Lily tilted her head and cast him a look, but she ultimately looked away without a word.

Half an hour later, they reached La Caprese, a fine dining restaurant downtown. It was the best establishment in all of Bridgeport with a member-only system.

The membership was tier-based—ordinary members were restricted to dining on the second floor; first-tier members were allowed into the third floor… So on and so forth.

The highest membership tier was the premier diamond, which came with the privilege of enjoying dinner at the top-floor private lounge. However, it came with a price tag too hefty for ordinary members.

From the restaurant's conception, there had only been two holders of the premier diamond membership. Even Nora was merely a diamond-tier member.

Loid and Lily had just gotten out of the car when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID before frowning. A pause later, he said to Lily, "Go in with them first. I'll take a call."

"Sure," replied Lily, who followed behind Nora and others.

Nora, upon noticing Loid's absence, asked, "Where's Loid?"

"He's taking a call," Lily drawled.

Nora's eyes wavered. With a smile, she said to Lily, "Alright. Follow us closely."

Lily nodded silently.
