Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52 It’s My Treat

“Hiss!”

When Phillip’s voice fell, the room instantly quieted down. Phillip paused the playing of the songs. The entire club was quiet at this time.

Everyone looked at Gerald together in shock.

The moment Phillip spoke, Gerald probably understood what he meant.

Obviously, Phillip felt that Gerald definitely would not be able to afford the karaoke. Thus, Phillip joined forces with the people from the club to trick him. Now that Phillip had said this, under everyone’s gaze, Gerald would lose his face no matter if he refused or not.

If he refused, he would lose face in front of everyone.

If he did not refuse, he would not be able to pay the money.

Moreover, someone able to operate such a large club would have a strong background. Someone at Gideon’s level might take charge and force Gerald to bear this debt.

Gerald instantly sorted out his thoughts and slowly tilted his head to Phillip.

Phillip was also looking at Gerald with a smile, but the viciousness in his eyes was very obvious.

Sitting aside, Keira frowned slightly. She felt that something was wrong. But she could not rule out the possibility that Gerald had opened an expensive bottle of champagne for her.

Doreen frowned. In her and Henley’s eyes, Gerald could not take out this money. They felt that Gerald borrowed money from Audrey to buy the jade bracelet. He might ask for his salary in advance.

Therefore, they all guessed that this was Phillip’s trick.

Henley smiled and decided to add fuel to fire. He clapped and said, “He’s indeed rich. Even I rarely order this kind of

wine.”

Under everyone’s gaze, the waiter looked at Gerald and smiled, “Sir, please settle the bill first. It’s 316 thousand

dollars!”

Gerald shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, “I said I didn’t order the wine. Go ask whoever ordered it to pay the money. Don’t look for me.”

Everyone at the scene was stunned. From the beginning, they felt that Gerald was staggering wealth. Now, Gerald’s refusal changed their opinion.

In fact, they were also looking forward to tasting this worldly famous wine.

The waiter frowned. He looked at Gerald and said, “Mr. Kenneth, are you kidding? It was you who asked us to open the wine, and now you don’t admit it? What do you think our Glory Club is?”

After Gerald denied it, Hazel instantly figured out what was going on. Thinking of the boss behind the Glory Club, smiled and did not go to help.

“Gerald, just pay the money. You can buy a jade bracelet worth 200 thousand dollars. 316 thousand dollars should not be a big deal for you,” Phillip said with a smile.

Keira frowned.

Things became quite embarrassing. This was her birthday party, and she still wanted to end it happily. She didn’t

want any problems to occur, so she didn’t invite Phillip and Matthew from the beginning.

She was worried that something unexpected would happen.

But what she was worried about still happened.

She wanted to pay the bill herself, but the bill of nearly 320 thousand dollars was indeed too much for her.

Gerald glanced at Phillip and then looked at the waiter in front of him. He said indifferently, “I’ll say the same thing again. Whoever opens the bottle of wine shall pay for it. This is my friend’s birthday party. Don’t disturb us.”

“Do you want to go back on your word?” the waiter’s eyes darkened as he asked.

He placed the tray on the table and took out a walkie–talkie. He said to the walkie–talkie, “Hey, David, the man who ordered the Silent Boat wants to go back on his word. He said that it wasn’t him who ordered it.”

“Got it. I’m coming!” A voice sounded from the walkie–talkie.
