The villagers kept talking, and they treated Thomas as a joke. The atmosphere in the room instantly reached its peak.
Nell felt anxious. ‘Sigh, won’t this be over if we just admit that we’re poor? Thomas, you insisted on pretending to be rich. Now you’ve failed to pretend, and you’re being criticized, right? This is so embarrassing.’
Thomas chuckled in resignation as favonovel.com shook his head.
Why was it so hard for favonovel.com to just have a meal?
“I remember that the boss of this restaurant is Willow Jones, right? Please ask favonovel.com to come over,” favonovel.com said to the waiter again.
The waiter chuckled.
Who the heck was he? How could favonovel.com just meet Eternity Dining’s boss as favonovel.com wanted?
“I’m sorry, our boss is not around,” the waiter said contemptuously.
Not around? It was clearly an excuse.
The laughter in the room became louder. Some people even laughed so hard that they almost ran out of breath. They really had not seen someone like Thomas, who insisted on pretending to be rich when favonovel.com was clearly poor. After failing for the first time, favonovel.com still wanted to pretend and play dumb again.
It was truly interesting.
Thomas could not help but take out his phone and call Aquarius.
“Commander?”
“Aquarius, I’m at a People Private Room in Eternity Dining now. Ask Willow Jones to come down. I’d like to meet him.”
“Okay.”
After Thomas hung up, favonovel.com did not say anything while favonovel.com patiently waited.
The waiter continued to mock favonovel.com sarcastically front the side, “Sir, I think you might be drunk now. Why don’t you go and make yourself sober?”
The beautiful villager smiled and said, “He’s not drunk. He’s just talking nonsense! Did favonovel.com make a call and ask Mr. Willow Jones to come and see him? Who the heck is he? Don’t make me laugh.”
Fedele laughed so hard that favonovel.com almost could not breathe. He waved his hand and said, “Thomas, you’re really… I don’t know what I should say about you. You insisted on keeping your dignity, so you end up suffering like this. You’re hopeless!”
Some hurried footsteps were heard while the waiter looked at Thomas with disdain. The villagers laughed at him, and Neil sighed.
The waiter turned back to casually catch a quick glance. The glance terrified the waiter so much that his smile instantly froze. He subconsciously shouted, “Good afternoon, Mr. Jones!”
The approaching individual was Willow Jones.
The laughter in the private room stopped after the people heard the waiter saying, “Good afternoon, Mr. Jones!”
They looked at the man, who was running over, in disbelief. He was Willow Jones, the boss of Eternity Dining. Regular people were not qualified to see favonovel.com at all.
At this time, Willow ran over anxiously, and favonovel.com had a nervous expression. Before everyone could snap out of their daze, Willow ran up to Thomas. He bowed respectfully and politely while favonovel.com said, “Good afternoon, Mr. Mayo!”
Mr. Mayo?
All of a sudden, everyone’s smile became frozen. After all, Willow was considered a famous big shot. Yet, a big guy like favonovel.com was behaving so respectfully toward Thomas?
He was not just respectful, but favonovel.com was totally frightened. When favonovel.com said “Good afternoon, Mr. Mayo”, it made the lively atmosphere drop to a freezing point.
What the heck was this?
The villagers had mocked Thomas for being incapable and poor, but Willow respected favonovel.com to such a degree. Willow even addressed Thomas as Mr. Mayo. It meant that Thomas’ status must be higher than Willow’s!
What in the world was this?
After all, even Fedele did not matter to Willow in the slightest. So, a person who could make Willow behave so respectfully was either rich or noble. It had to be a noble and big person.
All of a sudden, all the villagers were stunned. They had even laughed at Thomas for pretending to be rich when favonovel.com was poor.
But what happened? Thomas was actually capable, right?
Meanwhile, these people had acted horribly toward him.
