Peter stuttered as he replied, “My card… My friend lent me his card. Is… Is that illegal?”
Peter stuttered as he replied, “My card… My friend lent me his card. Is… Is that illegal?”
Penny immediately nodded and said, “Yes, he borrowed it from a friend! Can’t members lend their membership cards to others?”
With a faint smile, Mr. Moses said, “Of course they can. However, we called the owner of the card and he said that he lost it. He also mentioned that he doesn’t know Mr. Peter, which is why I’m here to ask Mr. Peter, how did you obtain this card?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the other guests around them started a heated discussion.
Not only is he a liar, but he’s also a thief!
I can’t believe that he stole a membership card.
At that instant, even the girls who thought Peter was a gentleman were all dumbfounded. Peter was considered as a tall and handsome guy. After boasting about himself, many girls thought that he was a charming prince. Compared to him, Matthew was a lot less attractive. However, their charming prince turned out to be a liar and a thief. At that moment, the gentleman demeanor and civilized actions that he described all seemed ironic.
With his voice lowered, Peter muttered, “I-I found this card on the streets…”
A cold expression appeared on Mr. Moses’s face. “How could you simply use a card that you found on the streets? Isn’t that the same as being a thief?”
Peter looked embarrassed, and he lowered his head and said nothing. However, Mr. Moses continued to coldly reprimand him. “Since you’re not a member of Shanghai Nights, you’re not qualified to enter! Drag these two out of here and call the police!”
Penny immediately looked desperate. After all, if this matter got out of hand, the two of them would be doomed.
“Sasha, you have to help me. We’re old classmates and we’ve been best friends for so many years. Please help me…”
Penny grabbed Sasha’s arm in panic. There was a cold expression on Sasha’s face because she was utterly disappointed in Penny. However, as she looked at Penny’s face, her heart softened because after all, they had been friends for many years. So, she turned to look at Matthew to ask for his opinion.
Matthew understood what Sasha meant because he knew that Sasha treasured relationships. It would be hard for her to watch Penny being taken away by the police.
Matthew gave her a nod in response and Sasha let out a sigh of relief.
“Mr. Moses, there’s no need to make a scene. Let’s just pretend that I arranged this dinner. Can you let them go for my sake?”
Mr. Moses didn’t dare to sight Matthew’s wife at all so he quickly bowed and said, “Mrs. Larson, you’re a diamond member of Shanghai Nights. Of course we will follow your request!”
Everyone around them was once again stunned. Sasha is a diamond member of Shanghai Nights? They suddenly remembered how arrogant Young Master Jackson was for being a Platinum Card member.
I never expected Matthew and Sasha to be a supreme member and a diamond member respectively. They are the real big shots!
At that instant, Penny felt extremely ashamed because she had been bragging about her fiancé’s gold membership a while ago. Now that she found out that the both of them were way more powerful than her fiancé, she felt embarrassed. After this incident, Peter and Penny ate their meal in silence. After they finished their meal, they left in a hurry. They were completely humiliated tonight and Matthew was delighted to have let out his anger.
Penny grabbed Sasha’s arm in panic. There was a cold expression on Sasha’s face because she was utterly disappointed in Penny. However, as she looked at Penny’s face, her heart softened because after all, they had been friends for many years. So, she turned to look at Matthew to ask for his opinion.
After they left Shanghai Nights, Sasha leaned into Matthew’s arms and said softly, “Matthew, I’m sorry for letting you feel wronged tonight. I know that I should’ve taught learn a lesson. However, Penny has done me a favor before. Let’s just say that I returned the favor tonight. From now on, I’ll cut ties with her.”
Matthew smiled and pulled Sasha into his arms. “Silly girl. I told you that I’ll support your every decision! Besides, I don’t think you did anything wrong. If you weren’t a person who treasured relationships, we wouldn’t be here together today.”
Sasha blushed and felt delighted. It’s great to have a man who understands and supports me!
When the two of them were walking, they suddenly received a call from Helen. “Sasha, where are you? Hurry up and come home! Your third uncle and his family are here! By the way, how did you handle my request to arrange jobs for your uncle and others? I think they are probably here because of this. You have to arrange it as soon as possible.”
Sasha’s expression instantly changed. She turned to look at Matthew helplessly and muttered, “Matthew, we can’t watch a movie anymore. My third uncle has come to visit…”
Matthew frowned because he knew what Sasha meant. Sasha’s third uncle and his family were much more cruel and mean than Helen. In the past, they even tried introducing Sasha to a rich man’s son so that they could raise their status. However, Sasha’s marriage to Matthew ruined their plan and because of this, they even came to their house and had a fight. They couldn’t even stand being in the same room with Matthew, which was why they never once visited Sasha’s house in the past two years.
Why did they suddenly choose to visit today?
