"Is this a slaughterhouse?” Freya asked suspiciously. "It's impossible for a meal to cost a million. Let me check the bill."
Sebastian snatched the bill from the waiter.
Abalone, lobster frittata with white caviar, Burgundy wine... He broke out in a cold sweat as he ran his eyes over the bill.
He knew there was nothing wrong with the bill; those dishes were definitely worth a million.
The biggest problem was that he didn't have a million in his pocket!
Although Sebastian was a member of the Schulz family, he never got to enjoy the same treatment as the others because he had been born by a mistress.
He was only given a hundred thousand in pocket money every month.
To add to that, he had a vain and materialistic girlfriend who was obsessed with buying luxury cars, branded clothes and expensive jewelry.
His pocket money was not enough to cover his monthly expenditures.
He didn't have a million to foot the bill.
Sebastian and Freya stood there awkwardly, holding the bill and sweating bullets. They were stumped.
The waiter soon lost his patience. "Are you going to pay or not? Didn't you say you come from the most prominent family?"
Sebastian and Freya blushed red at the waiter's caustic remark.
Nathan cheered for the waiter internally. Well said!
Before Sebastian and Freya hit the roof, Nathan took out a credit card a stack of cash before their very eyes. With a smile on his face, he placed them on the waiter's tray and said, "I'll foot the bill."
It's a Centurion Card that can be used globally with no credit limit!
He's tipping the waiter with a stack of cash?
