The core leaders of Wind Pavilion would definitely treat a guest with the highest standard if the guest had a white card.
This white card represented the highest-ranking membership in Wind Pavilion, which was far more superior than the black-gold card Willie had, the most common membership card.
Seriously! Tom was once the core member of the Howards and the grandson of Anderson, the founder of Wind Pavilion. How could Tom not rank high in Wind Pavilion?
Standing behind and seeing that Willie was in an embarrassing situation, Tom hesitated in deciding to stand out or not.
The manager's words made Willie speechless. If asked to buy the purple-gold membership with extra 5 million dollars, Willie couldn't possibly afford to do so. It was not the problem whether it was worth it or not. Even if it was worth it, Willie couldn't afford it now. So at the moment, he was really regretful. If he had known this, he would not have brought Phoebe to Wind Pavilion. In the end, he did not manage to show off. Instead, he was humiliated!
"Well, Willie? Are you upgrading your membership?" The manager asked again. When faced with Willie, the manager acted just out of professional courtesy, with nothing to do with respect.
Willie gritted his teeth and said, "You are discriminating us, as consumers. If it gets out, can you still run business in Wind Pavilion?"
The smile on the manager's expression didn't change much. He still smiled and said politely, "Sir I suggest you'd better not do this. You will gain nothing. This sudden upgrade has affected your mood. It's our fault here. In order to make up for your loss, we Wind Pavilion can give you a full refund for free, and we can also compensate you with two million dollars for your loss."
The more the manager said, the more humiliated Willie felt. Phoebe was getting impatient, and said directly, "Willie, I think we should find another place to talk. We don't have to get in."
As she spoke, she turned around first...
As a result, she immediately saw the man standing behind her. In an instant, her body trembled violently, and she instantly became very emotional.
It was Tom!
She only felt that she was hallucinating. How could she meet Tom in this place?
She was stunned for a moment and immediately tried to rob her eyes to see if she was really hallucinating. When she opened her eyes again, she realized that she was right. The man standing in front of her now was really Tom.
When Tom saw Phoebe suddenly turning around, his scalp went numb. But he was not as exciting as Phoebe.
Now he was looking at Phoebe, and he realized that he still couldn't calm down...
Indeed, they were a couple who had been married for four years, so how could they just forget each other easily? Tom was not some jerk.
Phoebe also felt complicated now. At the moment she saw Tom, a lot of things occurred to her. Her mouth moved. She wanted to say a lot of things, but she couldn't say them out because it seemed that there was nothing need to say. They had already divorced...
Willie had no choice but to follow Phoebe's idea and nod, "Well, it seems that this is the only way. We do not have to should talk business in Wind Pavilion."
He also turned around and saw Phoebe looking at a man in front in a daze. That expression on her face was clearly showing there was some story behind it.
All of a sudden, Willie narrowed his eyes and looked at Tom. When he realized that Tom was only wearing ordinary clothes and looked very ordinary, not as a rich man, he lowered his guard.
"Phoebe, I know a place with quite a nice environment. It's suitable for us to talk business." Willie said with a smile. There was no longer any embarrassment on his face. He was quite cheeky.
But Phoebe did not leave, as if she did not hear him. She still stood there and lowered her head.
Tom took a deep breath. Since he had already met her, there was no need for him to leave now. Although they were was divorced, they could still be friends. There was no need to totally ruin their relationship. So Tom reminded himself first, then strode over to Phoebe and smiled faintly.
"Hi, Phoebe, long time no see. How are you doing?" Tom spoke to Phoebe in a friendly tone. He had good control of his tone, not too indifferent neither warm.
