Gabe was scared to keep Violet waiting for the three of them, so he set it at Sky Restaurant at 8.30 pm. Meanwhile, he told Derrick and Benji to arrive 20 minutes earlier. However, Violet and Lydia unexpectedly came earlier than the three of them.
“Lydia and I didn’t have much to do either, so we came over early,” Violet said with a nod.
Gabe looked at Violet and then the people around him. Then he realized something was wrong.
He then asked, “Mr. Ludwig, you’re already here. Why didn’t you go to the private room? Why do you keep standing here? Has something happened?”
Violet glanced meaningfully at Fernando.
Fernando, Jonathan, the moguls, and the entrepreneurs around them looked shocked.
“Nothing. It’s just that the restaurant only has one private room left. Unfortunately, the patriarch of the Jensen family, Fernando, is also hosting his friends here. So he wants to fight us for this last private room,” Violet replied flatly.
Gabe’s face instantly filled with fury when he heard that. Not only Gabe, but Derrick also glared at Jonathan, Fernando, and the rest.
“How dare you fight Mr. Ludwig over a private room? Who gave you the nerve?!” Gabe fumed.
Derrick also snapped, “Fernando, I heard your real estate company has a lot of problems. It looks like I have to check on the Jensen family sometime.”
Fernando was no longer just in a cold sweat. He was sweating profusely.
He quickly smiled obsequiously and said, “No… I didn’t… Mr. Ludwig, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t mean to steal your private room. I really just…”
Fernando tried to defend himself but could not think of a reason. For a moment, he could not even form a complete sentence.
Violet was in no mood to argue with Fernando, of course.
“You’re right, Mr. Ludwig!” Derrick immediately nodded.
With that said, Gabe snorted coldly. Then he and Benji kept up with Violet and Lydia and headed upstairs.
It was not until Violet and his gang went upstairs that the atmosphere in the dining area finally improved.
A mogul-looking man standing behind Fernando asked, “Mr. Jensen, who is the young man named Violet Ludwig? Why are Chief of Police Wholeton, Director Crate, and Mr. Liamson so deferential to him?”
