Good Lord, the cost of wine alone might already amount to over 400,000!
Ryder’s face turned pale, and his teeth were grinding. Does Chloe Sheppard
think she could drink Lafite like beer?
Fortunately, he received a reply from Emmanuel right then.

‘Relax, Ryder. Just perform well in front of Tia and not worry about the money.
If you encounter any issues, just give me a call.
Even if Mackenzie’s Black Card failed, as long as Ryder called him, Emmanuel
could transfer money over immediately.
It would be absolutely foolproof!
Seeing this message, Ryder felt a little relieved. Following Emmanuel’s
instructions, he said to Tia and her mother, “Tia, Ms. Marianne, feel free to
order whatever you want. Don’t hold back!”
Marianne nodded and smiled, which made her seem somewhat satisfied
with the old man. Despite his unattractive appearance, he seemed more
reliable than men like longthan

Abellyn, witnessing this, clenched her teeth in frustration. She had planned to
flaunt her newly acquired one million in front of Ryder, but unexpectedly,
before she even had the chance, he had turned the tables and showed off to
her instead.
This is outrageous! You can keep pretending! I’ll see how you end up later!
Abellyn gritted her teeth and muttered to herself.
As expected of a top-notch restaurant, the speed of serving the dishes was
first-rate. The moment the seven individuals laid their eyes on the table filled Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
with exquisite delicacies, their eyes lit up, and saliva practically dripped.
Especially Abellyn. She attacked the food and drinks as though she had been
starved for years, completely disregarding her image.
Even Robby showed no manners, eating messily just like her.
Ryder’s mood was greatly affected by this, but fortunately, there was an
ample amount of food and a spacious table. Marianne and Tia weren’t too
bothered.
All seven indulged themselves to the fullest!
After a full two hours, Abellyn and Chloe were half-sprawled in their chairs,
patting their slightly bulging bellies, burping like crazy.
Seeing the sisters spread their legs, uncaring of decency and losing all
semblance of dignity, Ryder looked disgusted.
Tia also couldn’t eat peacefully, constantly worried about what would
happen if Ryder couldn’t afford the bill.
The server promptly brought the bill, smiling as she approached, “Madam,
your total consumption is 1.08 million. Would you like to pay by card or scan
the code?”
This server wasn’t the same one who had worn the uniform earlier, so she
was unaware of the Black Card’s existence.
Hearing her mention a bill of 1.08 million, everyone in the room was shocked!
Ryder and Tia were almost scared out of their wits.
They had never spent as much on food in their entire lives, even if they had
added up all their previous meals.
Abellyn chuckled and pointed at Ryder. “You’re mistaken. He’s treating us
today.”
The beautiful server was also taken aback, let alone the fury building up
inside Ryder right now.
Throughout the evening, he had been acting according to Abellyn’s whims,

and now he was the one left with the bill. He felt like a complete sucker!
Sigh, he was just plain foolish!
Being an honest person, Ryder could only grit his teeth and swallow the
bitterness. After all, he had agreed to treat them. As they said, one had to see
it through, even if it hurt!
He took the bill and realized that the alcohol alone accounted for almost half
of the total, and two bottles of Lafite were still corked, with their seals
unbroken!

“Um, can those two bottles of wine be returned?”
“Certainly, sir. Returning those two bottles of wine will reduce the bill by
200,000!”
The next second, the Sheppard sisters immediately stood up and opened the
two bottles of wine with a loud pop.

The entire room fell silent.
Ryder, who was already furious, turned beyond grim in an instant.
What the f*ck?! How can there be such shameless women in this world?!
Instead of being afraid of Ryder’s grim expression, the Sheppard sisters
taunted triumphantly, “Ryder, didn’t we agree that you would treat us
tonight? What’s this? You’ve only changed your mind after we’ve eaten?
You’re not a man at all!”
4/5
Huff… huff… huff… Ryder’s breathing became increasingly rapid, and his chest
was about to burst.
After a while, he slammed the table and exploded in anger. “Abellyn
Sheppard! Since you and your sister have decided to act shamelessly
tonight, I’m not going to carry your weight anymore! This dinner’s going
Dutch. I’ll only pay for four people. As for what you’ve eaten, settle the bill
yourselves!”
He had had enough! This honest man had had enough!
Tia also looked at Ryder. While his current demeanor was somewhat
intimidating, she believed what he did was right.
If he continued to put up with his ex-wife’s behavior, she would think he was
weak or that he was still in love with that woman.
