“Of course.”After that, Chase went into the restroom.After Mike watched him leave, he turned to tell the young man, “Tiger, take the most treasured wine of the restaurant to Mr. Collins’ private room.”The young man named Tiger was shocked. He asked with wide eyes, “Mr. Parson, that’s a Splendor Liquor from 1979. There are only 17 in the world, and each of them costs more than ten million!“You wasted so much effort to get this one bottle, and you’ve always treasured it. You wouldn't sell it to anyone no matter how much money they offered…”Bald Mike simply gave a slap across the face before saying, “Just do as you’re told. Stop blabbering.”As long as he could get on Mr. Collins’ good side, he was willing to give away wine that cost 100 million, let alone wine that cost ten million.The young man could only do as he was told while clutching his face.It did not take long for the waiters to serve countless sumptuous delicacies in a neat and orderly fashion. There was caviar
After she said that, Edward and Raymond turned to look at Chase mockingly.This was the plan they had discussed earlier, and their goal was to humiliate Chase.When Henry saw this, he frowned. “Anna, this is an eight-person table, so we can’t possibly add a stool. Why don’t you hang your bag on the chair?”“No way!” Anna refused with a huff. “Uncle Henry, this is a Gucci bag that I spent 20 grand on! What if it gets scratched?”“Yeah, Chase. You’re a man, so you won’t quibble with Anna over something so trivial, right?”“I think you should just eat standing up. What do you want? We’ll get it for you.”Edward suppressed his laughter as he spoke to Chase, giving him a hypocritical show of kindness.Chase did not say anything. Instead, he went over and threw Anna’s bag to the floor before sitting down on the chair. At that moment, Anna and the others were all stunned.“You asshole! H-How dare you throw my 20,000-dollar bag to the ground?!” Anna shrieked when she came back to her
After saying that, he left.“Dad!” Riley wanted to go after him.“Riley, ignore him. He’s as stubborn as a mule.” Laura stopped her and gave a cold chuckle. “I have no idea why your dad is so nice to a country bumpkin. He’s treating Chase like he's his own son!“Alright, enough of that. Let’s eat.”After Laura said that, they sat down.Edward could not wait to open the expensive bottle of Splendor Liquor from 1979. After opening it, he poured a glass for everyone.“Here, let’s have a taste of this 13-million-dollar liquor.”Laura did not usually drink, but today, she had a few sips. While feeling intoxicated, she said, “Edward, it’s all thanks to you that I can have a taste of such good liquor.”“Yeah, Edward. With just this small glass, I'll be able to boast to my friends for an entire year!" Raymond gushed with a grin.When Edward heard the praise from all around him, he felt great and started to feel arrogant.“Edward, that country bumpkin said we’ll regret this. Hahaha! H
Bald Mike turned to look at Edward with great disdain and sneered, “Apologize to him? Is he worthy of that?“He should take a good look at himself. I’m here to toast Mr. Collins!”Everyone was confused again.A toast to Mr. Collins?Who was Mr. Collins?After hearing what he said, Edward’s face turned red, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to hide in a hole in the ground.It turned out that everything had been in his head, and now, he was only left with embarrassment. Wait, Mr. Collins?Suddenly, he seemed to remember something. His expression changed slightly as he asked, “Mr. Parson, which Mr. Collins are you talking about?”Except for Chase, who had just left, there was no one with the surname Collins among them.Could it be...When he thought about this, a bad feeling suddenly washed over him.“Who else could it be?” Bald Mike snorted as he added, “It’s the Mr. Collins who was with you just now.”As soon as he said that, it felt as if a bolt from the blue had struc
“Alright!”Tiger grinned and quickly called the cashier over. “Calculate how much they spent.”After the cashier was done ringing up the items, he said, “Tiger, they spent a total of 14.26 million.”When the group heard this, they felt weak in their knees and almost passed out.14.26 million?Who could afford that?“Are you going to pay by credit card or check?” Tiger asked with a smile.Edward smiled bitterly. “W-We have no money...”“No money?” Tiger’s face turned cold as he said with a wave, “Okay, then. According to the rules here, if you can’t afford to pay, you can pay with your hands.”In an instant, several tall and strong men walked in with axes in their hands. They looked very unkind.Raymond and Anna had never seen such a scene before, and they were so frightened that they fell to the ground.“No, don’t cut off my hand!”“Edward, save us!”Even Riley and Laura were frightened, their eyes full of fear.“Hold on.”Edward stopped him hastily. “Tiger, right? I thi
“What?”“Beg that country bumpkin?”When the group heard this, they shook their heads without even thinking about it.They had targeted Chase in various ways just now. They even took the opportunity to humiliate him. If they were to beg him now, would it not just be a smack in the face?“What? You don’t want to?”Tiger’s eyes darkened. “If that’s the case, I’ll be taking your hands.”As Laura watched the ax-wielding men approach them, Laura finally gave up and said quickly, “No, we’ll do it! We’ll do it!”After saying that, she immediately looked at Riley and said, “Riley, why don’t you call Chase? You are his fiancée, after all...”Riley hesitated for a moment, but she eventually took out her phone and dialed Chase’s number. “Sorry, the user you dialed has turned off his phone...”Riley was stunned when she heard that. “H-He turned off his phone.”“What? His phone’s turned off?”“Did he turn it off on purpose to see us make a fool of ourselves?”“Call him again!”Edward,
The moment Tiger saw Chase come in, his attitude immediately changed. He quickly stepped forward and lowered his head in greeting. “Tiger, can you let them go for my sake?” Chase said with a smile.“Mr. Collins, you’re too polite. Since you’ve said the word, of course, I’ll let them go.” Tiger smiled politely and waved to his subordinates.Just like this, everyone left Imperial Restaurant, feeling as if it was all a dream.On the way back, Laura finally could not hold herself back anymore. She asked, “Um, Chase, w-why are they so respectful to you?”As soon as she asked this, everyone—including Riley and Edward—immediately looked at Chase.Even Henry was no exception.After knowing what happened just now, he was also shocked. Fortunately, those people finally let them go for Chase’s sake.Riley bit her lip and looked at Chase with confusion.Under everyone's stare, Chase merely shrugged and said bluntly, “Because their boss, Sam, is my subordinate.”Everyone fell silent righ
With a loud noise, the Bentley slammed into the guardrail next to Chase. Immediately, the hood opened on the spot.“Are you fucking deaf? I told you to get out of the way! Do you want to die?”Evelyn Benson walked out of the car in her high-heeled shoes. She started cursing at Chase furiously.Frowning, Chase said, “First of all, this is a crosswalk. Second of all, it’s a green light for pedestrians. And thirdly, who did you get your driver’s license from?”Evelyn bit her lips and snapped, “How dare you?! Who do you think you are? How dare you lecture me?!“Apologize to me right away or I guarantee you won’t be able to survive in South River City anymore!”She put her hands on her hips, staring daggers at him.Chase’s eyes turned cold. When he was about to teach her a lesson, a violent coughing suddenly came from the car next to him.“Evie, forget it. We’re the ones violating traffic rules, so there’s no need to make things hard for him."“Boy, it’s your lucky day. Don’t let m
