The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 22

“Sebastian, this is the best restaurant in the city.”

The restaurant belonged to the Larson Group and was one of the most famous restaurants in the city.It would cost all her savings to eat here.

“Didn’t you want to treat me to a big dinner?”

Sebastian arched his brows, pretending to be confused Natalie gritted her teeth and forced a smile.

“Yeah.Nothing.Let’s go inside.”

When Natalie checked the menu, she felt she couldn’t afford any of the dishes here.

Her heart sank as she skimmed through the menu card. Not even one dish was affordable here.

Biting her lower lip, Natalie continued to look at the menu.

“Miss, could you please hurry up? We still have to serve other guests,” one of the waiters said impatiently, casting a disdainful look at her.

Two waitresses nearby cast a scornful look at Natalie.

“They shouldn’t have come here if they can’t afford it,” one of them whispered to the other.

“I haven’t seen them before.They don’t look like regular customers.They’ve been looking at the menu for ten minutes.Don’t they feel ashamed?”

Natalie put down the menu card as the blood drained from her face. She stood up and looked at the two noisy waitresses

“What are you talking about? There is no time limit for ordering in your restaurant. Can’t we check the menu for a while before ordering?”

The two waitresses examined Natalie’s and Sebastian’s clothes and assumed the two were poor people.They didn’t think offending the two would cause them any trouble © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“We didn’t say anything I guess you are mistaken,” one of the waitresses said confidently

“That’s right.We were just discussing what to eat tonight,” the other waitress chimed in Sebastian poured a glass of water for Natalie and stood up I, too, heard what you were talking,” he said, glaring at them The waitresses looked startled “Are you two here to make trouble on purpose?”

one of them asked in a sobbing tone Just then, the restaurant manager heard the commotion and approached their table. The manager looked at Natalie and Sebastian and back at the waitresses “Enough! Stop fighting’”

He waved his hand

“Don’t disturb the other diners.What’s going on here?”

The waitress pointed at Sebastian.

“These two have been looking at the menu without ordering anything. We didn’t say anything ! only reminded them to order, but they got offended and started fighting with us”

The manager’s face darkened as he believed her.

This was one of the most popular restaurants in the city.

Many diners came to hang out without ordering food and sometimes ordered only the least expensive dish These people came to the restaurant just to click fancy pictures.

The restaurant manager hated such people and assumed Natalie and Sebastian were here for the same reason “All night I understand what’s going on.”

The restaurant manager straightened his suit and walked to Natalie “Sir, miss, please leave Other diners are waiting for a table you don’t intend to order, please allow the other diners to occupy the table.”

Sebastian’s face darkened.He didn’t expect the restaurant that belonged to Larson Group would have such poor service.

The workers disrespected the diners.

He wondered how Garrett managed his subordinates. He crossed his arms over his chest and looked at the manager.

“What makes you think we aren’t going to order food? You blindly believe their words without listening to us.”

The argument caught everyone’s attention.

They stopped eating and gawked at them. Several passersby outside were also peeking into the restaurant through the glass door. The manager broke out in a cold sweat. After all, the quarrel would affect the restaurant’s reputation.

If the media covered the news, people would stop coming to the restaurant.

“I’ve already inquired the waiter and waitresses. You two were making trouble out of nothing. How dare you question me. The restaurant manager grew anxious and was desperate to solve the problem as soon as possible.

He picked up the walkie-talkie on his chest and said, “Security, come to the second floor. A couple is making trouble here. Hurry up and drive these two people out.”

Natalie became furious when the manager called the security guards. She walked to the manager and glared at him.

“Yours is a high end restaurant. How could you insult your diners like this? Your service is poor, and your workers are impolite. And you drive us out of the restaurant if we point it out? My husband didn’t say anything wrong. How could you disrespect him? You’ve gone too far!”

The manager frowned and glanced around the guests who were already whispering about the issue.

“What are you talking about”, he shouted,

“Don’t spread nonsense to ruin the reputation of our restaurant. Our restaurant is known for our exceptional service.”

Sebastian pursed his lips, trying to suppress his smile. He was happy to see his wife defend him.

“Come here.”

Sebastian grabbed Natalie’s wrist and pulled her closer to him, “Stay away from him.Look at the man.Aren’t you afraid that he might slap you?” he whispered into her ear.

“They are wrong.They didn’t offer good service and were extremely rude.They humiliated us.Why should I spend my money here?”

Natalie looked at him, anger blazing in her eyes.Sebastian smiled and gently stroked her hair.

“Leave it to me.”He then turned to the manager, with a stone-cold face.

“I want to see your boss.Call him!”

The manager had been working in the restaurant for several years.He could tell Sebastian wasn’t an ordinary man but exuded a strong aura.

If not for his shabby clothes and menacing looks, the man would have mistaken him for a movie star or a rich young master from some noble family.

However, judging from his clothes, the manager felt he was a lowly man trying to cause trouble.

He snorted with disdain.

“Who do you think you are? My boss won’t come and see you as and when you wish.”

“Believe it or not, if he doesn’t show up, I’ll make sure this restaurant is sealed tomorrow,” Sebastian said calmly.

The threat in Sebastian’s voice and the intensity of his gaze frightened the manager.

He swallowed as sweat beaded his forehead.

“Just wait and see!”

He pointed his trembling finger at Sebastian.

“Just wait and see.Our boss will teach you a lesson.”

A few minutes later, the manager returned with the owner of the restaurant.

“Boss, they’re the ones making trouble.We must call the police.”

The owner’s face turned pallid when he saw Sebastian sitting at the table, his cold eyes piercing through him.

His legs grew weak. He felt flustered.

Their staff had made a grave mistake offending Sebastian.

“Boss, listen to me.These two people are trying to cause trouble… “Shut up!” the owner shouted, stopping him.

He gritted his teeth and glared at the manager and the waitresses.

“All three of you apologize to our guests right now!”

“Boss, we…”
