“Hey, what’s with this server?” one of Liam’s friends snapped. “You’re not even going to announce the dishes?”

“This is the fruit and snacks you ordered. Your entire order is now served,” Chloe finally said coldly.

Her poor attitude immediately drew disapproval from Amelia’s friends.

“You’re the manager?” a woman chimed in. “I thought the service standards at Grayclaw Pack’s entertainment center were high. How did someone with your attitude get to be a manager?

“Do you know who you’re serving today? The young master of Moon-Shadowed Pack! With that attitude, you must not want a tip.”

Amelia’s POV:

I’d noticed this server the moment we walked in. She was quite pretty, but her face was icy cold, and she didn’t even offer a welcome. So I was already unhappy with her. But I was on a date with Liam today and had to maintain my image. It wasn’t my place to speak up.

Eleanor’s POV:

“My apologies, Ms. Marshall,” I said, stepping in after enjoying the show. “Our manager here is quite senior. She doesn’t usually serve guests directly, so she might have forgotten some of the basics of hospitality.”

I then turned to Chloe, saying, “What are you standing there for? The guests aren’t happy. Apologize, now.”

Chloe’s POV:

The room fell silent. All eyes were on me. I shot a glare at Eleanor, then let my gaze sweep over the group, accidentally meeting Liam’s eyes.

His hand, resting on his thigh, clenched almost imperceptibly. His brow was furrowed slightly, and he was watching me with a complicated look. Everyone else was secretly enjoying my humiliation.

Almost everyone here, except for Amelia and her friends, knew exactly who I was. But no one was saying it.

I took a deep breath and said, “I apologize for my poor attitude carlier. If you’d prefer someone else, I can arrange for another server immediately.”

“Having the manager serve us is the highest standard, understand?” one of Amelia’s friends retorted, refusing to let it go.

Liam’s friends joined in, cgging them on.

A man said, “I’ve never heard of a server picking and choosing which guests to serve. You’ve got quite the temper for a manager!”

Another asked, “Could it be that you just don’t want to serve Liam?”

Seeing everyone gang up on me, Liam suddenly said, his voice low and firm, “Let her someone else.”

“Replace her with who, Liam?” his childhood friend, eager to defend him, cut in. “I think she’s the perfect one to serve us.”

But as soon as the words left his mouth, Liam shot him a cold glare. Liam didn’t get angry often. But when his expression shifted like that, he was serious. His friend immediately shut

Since Liam had spoken, I turned to leave. But Eleanor stopped me.

“You’ve spoiled the mood,” she said. “You need to make it up to everyone. How about this? Open a bottle of liquor and drink it all in one go to celebrate Amelia’s birthday. Once you finish it, you can go.”

Eleanor was deliberately making things difficult for me. I couldn’t handle alcohol well, and I’d break out in allergic reactions if I drank too much. Liam knew this very well.

Amelia’s POV:

I didn’t say anything. I just smiled at Eleanor, very pleased with her suggestion. This rude manager hadn’t just slighted Liam, but she had also put a damper on my birthday party. All my friends were watching. Liam, being the nice guy he was, had spoken up for her, which only made it seem like he was neglecting me.

Chloe’s POV:

I stared daggers at Eleanor, fighting back a strong urge to curse her out. She pursed her lips, clearly provoking me. At the last moment, my reason won out. If I slapped her right now and wrecked this party, it would feel good in the moment. But this business involved Moon- Shadowed Pack. I’d definitely end up with more gossip and trouble swirling around me.
