Abigail hadn't seen that type of credit card before, so she said disapprovingly, "What card is that? Can you afford to pay for this meal?"
Seeing Abigail was so ignorant, Seamus quickly pulled her sleeve and whispered, "Mom, that is a black credit card. The credit limit is at least five million dollars. Ordinary people can't even get it."
Although he muttered softly, the private room was small and everyone could clearly hear it.
Everyone looked at the credit card in Coralie's hand. Its appearance was indeed quite exquisite, but it didn't seem special.
"Five million? Are you kidding me?"
Abigail and Vera had always assumed that Hera's life was not as good as theirs. They thought that Coralie had a bad marriage and they always carried that air of superiority in her presence.
But at this time, Coralie flashed a credit card with a credit limit of five million dollars. This made Abigail very upset.
"Jayden, take a closer look and see if it's real."
Vera was displeased, so she instructed Jayden to check on it.
Coralie was not in a hurry. After all, it couldn't be fake. She handed the card to the waiter before anything else and said, "I'll pay for the meal first. It would be shameful to make the waiter wait and laugh at our ridiculousness."
Hearing what she said, Abigail and Vera thought that the card was fake and agreed with her. "Yes, if the card is fake, you're going to be a laughing stock."
The waiter took a look at the credit card and swiped it respectfully. He then passed the receipt to Coralie and left.
After the waiter left, Vera immediately prodded, "Jayden, take a look."
Jayden took the credit card and scanned the name at the bottom of the credit card. When he turned it over and saw the signature behind, he was surprised.
Rachel who was standing beside Jayden naturally caught sight of the name of the credit card holder. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Then they returned the card to Coralie.
Rachel said to her mother and Abigail, "Yes, the card is real and authentic. You even asked Jayden to introduce a boyfriend for her just now! However, all the men in A city are not even worth one-tenth of Coralie's boyfriend. He's totally out of their league."
Jayden also sighed and shook his head, "That's true."
When Vera heard her daughter and son-in-law remark in such a declarative way, she quickly asked, "Who is it?"
Coralie quickly interrupted, "It's a secret."
Hearing her words, Jayden and Rachel didn't add anything more.
After that, when everyone was leaving, Coralie's phone rang.
When Coralie saw that it was Skylar who called, she figured that he must have arrived home. She answered the call.
"Are you back?"
"Yes, are you not at home?"
Skylar asked her.
Coralie guessed that Skylar should be waiting at her door, so she quickly said, "We are coming back now. We'll be there in half an hour. Can you wait for me?"
She was able to avenge Hera and herself earlier, thanks to Skylar.
All thanked to the bank card he had given her!
"Okay, I'll wait for you. Don't rush!" Skylar replied.
After hanging up, Coralie ran to Hera and said, "Mom, let's take a taxi back. He's waiting for us at the door."
The one closest to them was Jayden. When he heard this, he took the initiative and offered, "Let me send you home."
Coralie thought about it, since Jayden and Rachel already knew about Skylar's identity, there was no need to hide. So she said, "Is it convenient for you? If not, we can take a taxi..."
"It's on the way," Jayden said.
"Then I'll have to trouble you," Coralie thanked him.
Jayden and Rachel also followed behind. Jayden greeted, "Hello, President Holland."
Skylar looked at Jayden and felt that he looked familiar, but he didn't recognize him. He politely replied, "Hello."
"Coralie is my wife's cousin. We were having a meal together, so I sent her home since it's on the way."
Jayden explained.
However, when he said that, Skylar recalled who Jayden was. "You are Lorraine's brother, aren't you?"
Jayden was flattered that Skylar recognized him. "Yes, yes. I didn't expect you to still remember me, Holland."
After exchanging a few more words of greetings, Jayden and Rachel got into the car and left.
When they got into the car, Rachel said, "Truthfully, I was still suspicious when she paid with the card, but I didn't expect that Coralie's boyfriend really turned out to be Skylar Holland!"
Jayden nodded. "They seem to have a good relationship."
......
Coralie wanted to invite Skylar into her house, but Skylar suddenly stopped in the act. "Since we're going to work tomorrow, let's go out for a walk."
"Okay." Coralie realized that she was too occupied with her mother that she neglected Skylar, so she said to Hera, "Mom, we're going out. I don't think I'm coming home tonight."
In fact, when Coralie was married to Howard in the past, she rarely came home. Compared to that, Hera was happy that Coralie visited home every once in a while recently.
So she didn't ask for them to stay.
Coralie and Skylar were in the car. Skylar took a bag from the back seat and handed it to her. He mentioned, "I'm not good at buying gifts. But the guide at the airport told me all women love lipsticks, so I bought some for you."
"Some?"
Coralie peered into the bag and saw dozens of lipsticks scattered in it...
