Vroom!While Harvey York pondered the situation, the car was parked in front of a luxurious restaurant.There were similar establishments in Wolsing, where meals cost thousands of dollars. Ordinary people would not even set foot in places like these.And the Gare Pavilion, the building in front, was the best one of them all.The royal chef during the Whip Dynasty had been in charge of the legendary place in Wolsing. Even after being inherited from generation to generation, the taste had not changed even one bit.For many people, having a meal here was a thing to boast about for the rest of their lives.Harvey did not expect Mandy Zimmer to arrange a place like this just to welcome him.That said, he still quickly exited the car.“I got word from the concierge department that Ms. Mandy invited you here, Mr. York!“Prominent figures of Wolsing’s business world will be joining you today!“They’ll be waiting for you in the deluxe room! Please!“Right! Ms. Mandy’s secretary said

Liberty pointed at a few people before looking fiercely at Harvey.“In any case…“We’re all people from the upper social circles! We’re all young masters and wealthy ladies!“Mandy is even the head of the Jean family’s ninth branch! She naturally belongs to the circle as well!“Normally speaking, people like us would never even come in contact with people like you. It’s already a huge blessing for you to even be talked down like this.“You should know you’re not worthy to have a goddess like Mandy! Losers like you would never get a chance!“That’s why I’m saying this for Mandy right now.“Since you know the difference between you and us, you should just leave already. Stop pestering Mandy already.”Liberty pulled out a stack of money.“Here’s a thousand and four hundred dollars. Consider this your ticket back to where you belong. No need to pay it back, either. I’m only doing this because I pity you.”Harvey glared coldly at her. Creak!The door was pushed open, and Mandy

Harvey felt a little moved after hearing Mandy’s words.No matter how bad her temper was—no matter what happened between the two…One thing was for sure: she would always stand with him.“Heh! He must be pretty good at his job, then!”Anne snuffed out her cigar, smirking coldly. “I wouldn’t even look for someone like this at the club! I’d at least get myself someone with an eight-pack, or a trainee from Country J!“You haven’t seen enough men, Mandy! Maybe I should take you for a stroll in Country J! You’ll finally understand what you’re missing out on after that!”Mandy glared coldly at her. “I’m not interested in hooking up.”Anne curled her lips.“Everyone in the circle knows each other! How are you supposed to act like a wealthy lady without a few pretty boys around?”The women smiled after hearing those words.They hadn’t experienced what Anne did themselves, but they had been hearing about it for the longest time.The men felt slightly awkward, and glared disdainfull

Everyone froze, then gazed deeply at Harvey.A single bead cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, after all.‘This kept man doesn’t even know how to count that many zeroes!‘He’s getting something this expensive just to not sit with us!‘He’s definitely benefiting from this, but this is just embarrassing!’Mandy’s face darkened.Before she could lash out, Harvey had already spoken up.“Forget it. It’s just a bead from a roadside stall that costs a dollar. I don’t need something like that.”Everyone went dead silent, and their expressions turned odd. “What do you mean by that?!”Anne showed a horrible expression.“You’re Mandy’s ex-husband, but you don’t even have the right to come in contact with people in our circle!“How dare you insult Young Master Reggie’s gifts like that? Other than making us hate you even more, what else can you do?!”Mandy froze; she was holding the priceless Nine Eyed Beads in her bag.Thinking closely, the so-called Nine Eyed Beads Reggie gave

Everyone looked at each other after hearing Harvey’s words.They wanted to say that he was right, but they simply couldn’t risk embarrassing themselves.Anne’s face was bright red, and she kept grinding her teeth.Liberty and the others scoffed, desperately looking for something to say.“You think we don’t know that the beads are fake?“This is about respect! Young Master Reggie gave us a lot of respect for showing up today!“Even if he gave us a damn melon, it’d be the thought that counts! You understand?”She then glared at Mandy.“You’re the host today, but I should still tell you something! He has no right to sit with us! If you’re still planning to let him eat here, then I’ll be leaving!”Naturally, Liberty had no intention of admitting to her fault, nor was she planning on respecting Harvey.Mandy frowned.“If that’s the case, then you should leave right now. Not only am I eating with Harvey, he’s staying at my place too. You have any opinions about that?” she said.
