Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 306

The waiter immediately responded, "Oh, so you're the one who reserved this table. I apologize—we haven't had a chance to contact you yet. Mr. Wilde took this table, so we've prepared another for you. As compensation, we've included two of our signature dishes at no charge."

"What?"

I froze.

I couldn't believe how unreliable this place was. I had booked this table in advance, and they agreed. Yet, they gave it to someone else without my consent.

"I'm not moving. I want this table."

This spot had the best view for the performances and the scenery was unbeatable. I spent half the night choosing it—there was no way I'd give it up for two plates of free food.

Before I could make a fuss, Matthew tugged at my arm. "Two dishes, right? Can we pick which ones?"

The waiter thought for a moment and nodded. "Anything except the top three dishes that cost over a thousand dollars. The rest are up to you."

"Deal!" Matthew said, pulling me over to the new table. "It's just a table. The atmosphere's still great, and the view's pretty much the same. Plus, two dishes here cost over a hundred dollars each—this is a win."

Since no one else seemed to care, making a scene would only ruin the mood. I let it slide.

I turned to the waiter and said, "You should thank Ben. If he hadn't spoken up, I wouldn't have let this go so easily."

I gestured at Benjamin.

The waiter immediately bowed toward him. "Thank you, Mr. Ben."

Hearing that, Liam finally relaxed.

After ordering two dishes, Amy's face flushed. "This meal costs more than the renovations for my family's yard! Benjamin, you weren't lying. You've really made it. You're the most successful person in our village!"

Yvonne grinned. "A matchmaker came by last year, trying to set my sister up with you. She wasn't interested then, but when we get back, I'll put in a good word. Perhaps you can be my brother-in-law!"

Benjamin smiled nervously. "I'm not in a rush to get married."

Just then, a commotion erupted behind us.

A large crowd poured into the restaurant.
