Chapter seventy one
At that moment, upon hearing what Patricia just whispered to her about it being nothing serious, Penelope's jaw tightened even further and her entire body went rigid with barely suppressed fury. She pulled back from Patricia's whispered explanation and spoke out loud, her voice sharp and accusatory enough that both Elijah and the front desk lady could hear every word clearly.“Well, that explanation doesn't sit well with me at all, and I'm definitely not going to accept this arrangement!” Penelope said, her voice rising with indignation and hurt. “Why would you be going on a date with him if you literally just want to go inside the restaurant to talk to that good-for-nothing ex-husband of yours? It makes absolutely no sense!”Her eyes flashed with a mixture of betrayal and confusion as she continued her protest. “Does that mean you've accepted to go on a romantic date with this man just because you want restaurant access? That's all this is worth to you? I know you, Patricia - I kno
Chapter seventy two
At that moment, hearing what Elijah just said to her with such dismissive coldness and outright rejection, Penelope felt like the ground had been pulled out from underneath her feet. She couldn't believe her ears - couldn't believe that she had literally just orchestrated and destroyed a perfectly planned evening that she had worked so incredibly hard to arrange.Penelope's mind raced with devastating clarity about everything she had sacrificed and planned to make this date happen. She knew exactly what kind of effort, what kind of careful preparation, what kind of lies she had constructed to get herself to this point where she could sit across from Elijah at an expensive restaurant and pretend to be the sophisticated, well-connected woman he would want to date.And now Patricia was just stealing everything away from her right in front of her face! Her date, her opportunity, her carefully constructed evening - all of it crumbling because she had made the fatal mistake of involving Pat
Chapter seventy three
At that moment, upon hearing what the front desk lady just said with such unwavering professional defiance, Elijah's jaw tightened visibly and his entire face flushed red with a mixture of shock and mounting rage. He couldn't believe that someone he considered to be just a lowly employee was actually refusing to bow down to his authority and influence.Without warning, Elijah slammed his hand down hard on the front desk with a loud bang that echoed through the entrance hall and caused several nearby guests to turn and stare at the commotion. His voice exploded with fury as he leaned forward aggressively toward the hostess.“What the hell are you talking about?” Elijah shouted, his composure completely shattered now that someone had dared to challenge his sense of entitlement. “Who the hell do you think you are to literally talk this kind of nonsense directly to my face? Are you completely crazy or suffering from some kind of mental breakdown?”His finger jabbed toward her accusingly a
Chapter seventy four
At that moment, with his phone safely tucked away and his manager ally on the way, Elijah turned back again to the front desk lady with a vindictive smile that promised severe consequences for her defiance. His voice dripped with malicious satisfaction as he prepared to deliver what he clearly believed would be his moment of triumph.“Well, I literally warned you about this exact scenario,” Elijah said, his tone carrying the smugness of someone who believed victory was already assured. “I warned you not to mess with me. I warned you to literally do what I wanted you to do, but instead you chose to be stubborn and difficult. You were acting as if you're completely untouchable, as if nobody in this entire establishment could do anything to discipline you for your insubordination.”His voice grew more menacing as he continued his gloating monologue. “But here you are now, about to be completely at my mercy, and I want you to understand something very clearly - I'm not going to have any
Chapter seventy five
At that moment, hearing what Elijah just said about demanding immediate termination, the manager of Eat with Pride turned sharply to face the front desk lady with visible anger and disappointment written across his features. His voice carried the authority of someone who was genuinely upset about potentially losing an important client.“What the hell do you think you are doing?” the manager said angrily, his tone suggesting he was already prepared to side with his VIP friend without hearing the full story. “Why are you insulting a valued client like my friend here? This is completely unacceptable behavior from someone in your position!”At that moment, recognizing that she needed to explain the situation before it spiraled completely out of control, the front desk lady bowed her head politely in a gesture of respect toward her manager. She opened her mouth to begin providing her side of the story about what had actually transpired and why she had been forced to maintain the restauran
Chapter seventy six
Elijah couldn't believe that his friend would literally be supporting this employee over him in this situation. His friend should have simply taken his word for what happened and fired her immediately without any questions or investigations, but instead he was insisting on hearing both sides of the story like some kind of impartial judge.This unexpected resistance made Elijah realize that because of his friend's hesitation to act decisively, Patricia might start to think that maybe he didn't have as much influence and connection at this establishment as he had claimed. That possibility made him deeply uncomfortable, since his entire arrangement with Patricia was built on the premise that he could solve her problems effortlessly through his powerful connections.But Elijah forced himself to remain outwardly calm despite his internal frustration, knowing that losing his temper further would only make him look less in control of the situation. He would let his friend conduct this little
Chapter seventy seven
At that moment, upon hearing what the front desk lady just said in her calm, professional explanation of the events, the manager literally closed his eyes for a brief moment as he processed the information she had provided. When he opened them again, there was a look of understanding and resolution on his face that suggested he had reached a clear decision about this situation.Slowly, he nodded his head with the weight of someone who had heard enough evidence to make a fair judgment. Then he turned to face Elijah directly, his expression showing both regret about disappointing a friend and firmness about upholding his establishment's principles.“Well, I'm genuinely sorry to disappoint you, my friend,” the manager said with a tone that balanced personal friendship with professional responsibility. “But after hearing her explanation, I have to tell you that she didn't do anything wrong in this situation. What you and these ladies were requesting of her is simply and completely agains
Chapter Seventy Eight
Immediately upon hearing what the manager had said and seeing that Elijah's grand display of influence had been completely torn down and rejected, Penelope couldn't help but feel a small smile creeping across her face despite her earlier anger and disappointment about losing her date.Yes, she had to admit that she was genuinely happy that Elijah couldn't deliver on his promises and connections the way he had boasted he could. While she was still hurt that Patricia had accepted his date proposal, seeing him fail so publicly meant that Patricia would show much less interest toward him going forward. This humbling experience was exactly what Penelope literally wanted to see happen, and everything was turning in her favor now in terms of diminishing Elijah's appeal.At that moment, Patricia also shook her head in deep disappointment, her shoulders sagging slightly as she realized that this avenue to reaching Jeremy was completely closed to her. She wasn't feeling disappointed because she
Chapter seventy nine
Immediately upon hearing what his friend just said about having them escorted out like common troublemakers, Elijah's jaw tightened with a combination of rage, humiliation, and complete disbelief that their friendship was being thrown away over what he considered a simple favor.“Are you seriously kicking me out?” Elijah said, his voice rising with incredulous anger. “Are you literally kicking me out of this establishment just because I came to you asking for you to do this one little thing for me? Like, don't you understand how many sacrifices I've made for you over the years? Don't you even remember the history between our families?”His voice grew more threatening as he played what he believed was his strongest card. “Don't you know that it's because of my family's influence - my father's personal recommendation to the ownership - that you even got this manager position in the first place? What the hell has gotten into you that you would treat me this way after everything we've b
Chapter Eighty
At that moment, upon hearing what the security guard just said and seeing the determined, unwavering look on their faces, Elijah could tell with sinking certainty that these men were absolutely not going to back down any time soon. They were not going to change their minds or show him any special consideration, which put him in an incredibly disadvantageous position that he simply could not bear.The thought of enduring this level of public humiliation right in front of Patricia - right in front of the very woman he was desperately trying to impress and win over to his side - was absolutely unbearable. His entire carefully constructed image of power and influence was crumbling before her eyes, and he needed to do something dramatic to salvage the situation.Elijah straightened his shoulders and addressed the security guards with as much dignity as he could muster under the circumstances. “Fine, we will leave voluntarily,” he said, his voice carrying a warning tone that suggested this
