“My apologies, ladies. I did not mean to interrupt such a touching moment.”
Connor Luther approached them.
“This is the VIP card Cloudnine Restaurant has prepared for you as
compensation.
“The card is linked to your WeChat account. In the future, if you wish to dine at Cloudnine Restaurant, there will be no need for reservations. You’re also entitled to a 30% discount.
“I have a gift for you too, from me. This is a bottle of Lafite ’82,” said
Connor.
Lila immediately shook her head when she heard what his gift was. “That is way too expensive a gift. We cannot take it!”
A bottle of Lafite ’82 costs hundreds of thousands due to increased
demand in the market!
That was something Lila had heard her parents discussing.
Having their meal compliments of the restaurant and getting a VIP card was already more than enough compensation.
“The stellar reputation Cloudnine Restaurant has built over the years must not be tarnished. If you do not want this bottle of wine, throw it away. I will not take it back,” declared Connor.
Then, he glanced at Jane and walked away.
Jane watched him leave quietly.
It seems the bottle of wine was more than just an apology gift.
It seemed Connor knew of her relationship with Hugh.
He had gifted them the bottle of wine to get on her good side.
“Janie, what should we do?” asked Lila.
She looked at Jane in a daze.
“Since it’s already been gifted to us, let’s open it. As for the card, keep it. You can use it in the future,” replied Jane.
The way Jane saw it, there was no reason to reject a gift that had been
freely given.
Jane picked up the bottle opener and opened the bottle of Lafite without hesitation.
She poured Lila and herself a glass each.
“Cheers! To hell with the Fowler family!” said Jane.
She then drank from the glass.
Lila was stunned for just a split second before she smiled at Jane. “Cheers! To hell with the Fowler family!” she repeated.
“Oh, Janie, weren’t we going to spend the filthy money Dwayne Fowler gave us? After what happened, I doubt we can go through with it,” said Lila. “Yeah. It’s disgusting having his money on me. How about we donate it to Hope Junior School,” said Jane.
“That’s a great idea!” replied Lila.
When they were done, Jane and Lila left the restaurant.
Not once before that did they glance at Hugh.
Hugh finally turned away from them.
“Hugh, your beloved has left. You can eat now. Aren’t you hungry?” asked Robert.
He had already finished his food.
Hugh’s food, however, had not been touched at all. It had all gotten cold.
He had ignored Robert the entire evening.
