Don Albert didn't dare to speak loudly as the significant figures of the city gathered together. Even though they were in his restaurant, he walked behind everyone and wagged his tail at Charlie like a pug, hoping that he would bat an eye at him. 4
Looking at the extravagant spread and the decoration, Charlie smiled at Don Albert and said, "Good job, Albert. Thank you for the arrangement." 2
Albert smiled like a child receiving candy and said," It's my pleasure to serve you. Please have a seat.”
Charlie nodded and sat in the main seat of the table.
Albert bowed graciously at Charlie and said, "Please just call for me if you need any assistance, I'll be waiting by the door!" 5
Then, he gingerly exited the suite and stood by the door like a waiter.
Albert Rhodes was the king of the underworld in Aurous Hill, but right now, he was nothing but a good-for-nothing thug. He was not yet qualified to sit at the table with Charlie and his distinguished guests-it was already lucky enough for him to be able to talk to Charlie. 3
As soon as Charlie sat down at the main seat, Jasmine followed closely and sat to the right of him. They were seated so close to each other with only the small gap
between them that Charlie could even smell the faint perfume from Jasmine’s body. 4
According to the sitting etiquette, the most distinguished person sat at the head seat, while the people next in rank would be seated on both sides of the head seat.
Among them, the Moore family was the most prominent. Hence, Jasmine, as the representative of the Moore family, naturally sat next to Charlie. 3
