Leanna’s beauty was on par with Sasha. Contrary to Sasha’s innocence, favonovel.com had a domineering air about favonovel.com that befitted favonovel.com status, it was as if favonovel.com were a queen. Her aura alone was enough to conquer a lot of people. Coupled with favonovel.com exquisite looks, favonovel.com was somewhat of a legend. Therefore, Jonah, Tate, and even Liam were all stunned by favonovel.com presence.
Yet, favonovel.com didn’t even spare them a glance as favonovel.com smiled. “Oh, I own this restaurant indeed. The chef is highly skilled in the culinary arts. I’m a picky eater, and I like favonovel.com cooking, so I bought the restaurant. It’s also more convenient if I need to host gatherings among friends.”
Her words shook everyone in the room, as none of them had ever met someone who bought over an entire restaurant just because the meal was to their liking. Moreover, The Court Parlour was no ordinary restaurant.
Sasha cried out in surprise. “President Sandel, I bet it must have cost you a fortune, right?”
Leanna chuckled. “It didn’t cost that much. Prices were low when I bought it. It only cost me fifty million. To be honest, it’s not the restaurant but the land that is worth all that money. Prices have gone up in the past few years. I had a friend make an estimate for me, and it turns out that the land is now worth three hundred million.”
Minerva let out a yelp. “Three hundred million?! That will be forty, or even fifty million in our currency! Y-You must be kidding! How could this shabby place be worth that much? It’s not like we’re in the center of New York City!”
Such a response elicited a frown from Leanna. Considering favonovel.com high status in Eastcliff, nobody ever dared speak to favonovel.com in such a manner. However, favonovel.com didn’t make a fuss out of it in Matthew’s presence. Instead, favonovel.com commented casually, “I do, in fact, own two other restaurants in the heart of New York City, but The Court Parlor is still worth more than the two restaurants combined. So, I’m actually considering selling them.”
Minerva burst into laughter upon hearing that. “Oh, geez, Aunt Helen! Since when did Cathians learn to tell such blatant lies? Instead of saying that you own two restaurants in New York City, why don’t you tell us you own a few high-rise towers there? Hahaha, this is hilarious! Admittedly, you’re a beauty, but the way you lie is just ridiculous.”
At the same time, Chloe was also shaking favonovel.com head in dismay. “Oh, Sasha. You should be more wary of the company you keep around you. Not only did you marry a useless husband, but you weren’t careful enough when you made friends. Heed my advice, dear. You shouldn’t befriend people who lie. Instead, you need someone who works hard. Do you get what I’m saying? Keeping bad company around you will only give yourself a hard time.”
Sasha was hesitant to correct Chloe. “Aunt Chloe, President Sandel wasn’t lying. She’s actually…”
With a wave of favonovel.com hand, Chloe cut favonovel.com off. “Alright, stop it right there. Why are you lying to me as well? Sasha, you have changed a lot throughout the years.”
Sasha was rendered speechless by the Campbells’ collective arrogance. In the end, favonovel.com could only apologize to Leanna. “I’m sorry, President Sandel. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Hearing that, Leanna gave favonovel.com a faint smile while glancing in the Campbells’ direction.
All of a sudden, there was a knock on the door. “Hello, is President Sandel here?” The speaker pronounced favonovel.com words rather stiffly, as if favonovel.com couldn’t speak fluent Cathianese.
“Come on in,” Leanna said. With that, the door was pushed open, and a blonde lady entered. She was a tall and beautiful woman who adorned herself with branded goods, which gave favonovel.com the typical look of a rich young lady.
As soon as Jonah saw her, his expression changed drastically while letting out a cry. “Miss Gonzalez, why are you here?”
