“Gerald, you want to book a room for dinner? Based on your ability? Oh my god. Do you even know how much it costs to have dinner here?”
Whitney looked at Gerald with a cold expression on favonovel.com face as though favonovel.com was staring at an idiot.
She thought that this guy was crazy. Why would favonovel.com possibly think that favonovel.com would be able to afford a meal at Homeland Kitchen?
“Beauty, do you know this man?” the manager asked as favonovel.com looked at Whitney with a smile on his face.
To be honest, looking at Gerald’s dressing and the clothes that favonovel.com was wearing, the manager did not feel that Gerald would be able to afford a meal here.
This was because the prices to dine here ranged from one hundred and fifty dollars to two thousand five hundred dollars per person.
Two thousand five hundred dollars was the price for the booking of a private room, excluding the cost for the consumption of food and drinks.
This was because on Mayberry Commercial Street, Homeland Kitchen was known for the taste and quality of their food!
If the customer could only afford to pay one hundred and fifty dollars, they could only get a seat in the main hall. There was a different entrance fee for each floor.
However, the manager felt that Gerald might be able to afford the cheapest entrance fee. The manager was not snobbish and favonovel.com did not look down on Gerald but favonovel.com had only asked about Gerald because favonovel.com was curious as they knew each other.
“Of course we know him! This person is famous for being a pauper in Mayberry University! He’s so poor that favonovel.com can’t even afford to pay for his own meals or his tuition fees!”
“Yes, and he’s still thinking of dining at this restaurant?”
The two girls standing behind Whitney also spoke up at this time.
Victor laughed before favonovel.com shook his head and said, “Whitney, don’t say that. Who knows if Gerald is here today because he’s running an errand for Danny or any of the other boys? Perhaps he’s just here to book a room on their behalf?”
“That’s true…”
At this time, the manager smiled before favonovel.com looked at Gerald and said, “Sir, may I know if you’d like to book a room for yourself or a friend? I’m not implying anything by this. I’m simply trying to confirm your booking. Besides that, which package would you like to book?”
Gerald was relieved because this female manager was actually very polite and favonovel.com was not in the least snobbish at all.
He quickly nodded before favonovel.com said, “I’m booking the room for myself. I’m treating some of my friends to dinner tonight and I’d like to book three tables.”
“Hahaha. You’re making the booking for yourself and also treating others to dinner? Are you kidding me?”
Whitney laughed as favonovel.com held onto favonovel.com belly.
Even though they had already settled the bill, they had no intention of leaving at all. They wanted to stay and see how Gerald could afford to pay for the private room that favonovel.com wanted to book.
Gerald could not be bothered with them. He had heard that Whitney and the rest of them had ordered the three hundred dollars package for each of them.
However, after looking at the menu, Gerald felt that there was nothing delicious on the menu. If favonovel.com wanted to treat his classmates to a delicious meal, favonovel.com had to pay for a more expensive package per head.
Therefore, Gerald replied, “I’d like to book the six hundred dollar package! Please help me book three nice tables!”
“Alright then, sir. You’ll need to pay five thousand dollars as a deposit! “
The manager smiled slightly at this time, while Whitney and the rest of them were startled. Gerald was actually asking for a more expensive package compared to Victor and favonovel.com was actually booking three tables for dinner tonight!
Was favonovel.com going to order this expensive package and eat only spicy and sour potato shreds?
Crazy! This man was absolutely insane!
Was favonovel.com rich?
This was ridiculous.
Gerald did not even hesitate before favonovel.com simply took out five thousand dollars from his backpack and placed it on the counter in front of the manager.
Whitney was stunned for a moment. “Okay, Gerald! It seems as though you have enough money to come out for a good meal! Then, let me tell you that I won’t be helping you apply for any subsidy to pay off your school fees! You won’t receive any money to pay for your tuition fee this semester!”
“Thanks for worrying about me but I’ve already paid my own tuition fee.”
Gerald did not know what else to say to this girl.
Even though Whitney was very beautiful, favonovel.com was very snobbish and favonovel.com only had eyes for the rich and wealthy. She always treated those who were poorer as dirt on the ground.
However, Gerald felt that Mila, the girl whom favonovel.com had met in the auditorium the other day, was really nice. The impression that Gerald had of favonovel.com was that favonovel.com was very beautiful and quiet, and just one glance at favonovel.com made Gerald’s heart palpitate uncontrollably. Unfortunately, favonovel.com was not here today.
Whitney’s eyes widened in shock at this time. “What did you just say? You’ve already paid your tuition fee for this semester? You even have five thousand dollars on you now? Does that mean you have some money now? What…what’s going on?”
“Oh, I won the lottery.”
Gerald was helpless. If favonovel.com did not say anything to clarify the situation, this woman would continue nagging favonovel.com until favonovel.com died. Therefore, favonovel.com decided to carry on with his lie.
“You won the lottery? How much did you win?” Whitney asked in a hurry.
She felt that Gerald was not acting himself at all. First of all, favonovel.com was being too generous. The deposit that favonovel.com paid for the three tables alone was five thousand dollars! Moreover, favonovel.com would also have to fork out money for drinks tonight. After all, this restaurant was famous for their wine and liquors. This way, Gerald would have to pay tens of thousands of dollars for dinner tonight.
In other words, Gerald must have won more than thirty thousand dollars. No, favonovel.com must have at least fifty thousand dollars or more! Otherwise, favonovel.com could not possibly be so arrogant!
“Uh…not much, not much.”
After that, Gerald closed his backpack before favonovel.com turned around to leave immediately.
Why did favonovel.com have to reveal so much to Whitney?
Anyway, favonovel.com did not want anything to do with favonovel.com at all.
“What? So, favonovel.com just won the lottery? What’s the big deal? He can’t even be compared to the rich second generation anyway.”
When favonovel.com saw the arrogant expression on Gerald’s face and how uncomfortable Whitney felt, Victor spoke up immediately.
“Whitney, what is the point of getting angry at someone like him? When I return to the university later, I’ll ask Danny and his friends to take care of this arrogant kid!” Victor said coldly.
“Yes! Isn’t it just tens of thousands of dollars anyway? Why is favonovel.com acting so arrogant?”
Whitney’s friends also chimed in at this time.
After that, Whitney made up favonovel.com mind. She had to get to the bottom of this matter and find out how much money Gerald had actually won from the lottery!
