The Heiress Strikes Back


65 What’s the Situation?

Jenna, an outsider, was still present, so Sharon didn’t want to blow things up. After all, the former was Wallace’s childhood friend, and she had to give her enough face.

Sharon hadn’t seen her clearly from a distance just now, but now that Jenna was standing beside her, she felt even more strange. The temperature isn’t low now, so why is she still wearing a turtleneck in such weather?

Soon, everyone in the suite sat down.

Above their heads was the vast starry sky, and below their feet was the underwater world. From the decoration to the design, it was obvious that they had put in some effort.

Louis let Jenna sit at the head of the table and pushed Sharon to the corner. Only Jenna would talk to her from time to time, and the others couldn’t be bothered with her. Nicole even called Crystal ‘sister-in-law’ very affectionately.

After a while, exquisite dishes and fine wine were served by the staff.

All the ingredients for the dishes were very fresh, and the designs of the dishes were unique. The wine chosen for the dishes was also very valuable.

Jenna was also someone who had tasted delicacies, but she was touched by the sincerity of the meal. She looked at Louis and asked, “This cost you quite a bit, right…”

“Ha… Haha! It’s not much-just 500,000 dollars!” Louis’s tone was rather smug.

Crystal smiled and picked up the wine on the table. “This isn’t the standard of 500,000 dollars. Just this bottle of wine has a market value of more than 600,000 dollars.”

Upon hearing this, Louis’s heart raced. Could it be that Sharon wasn’t the one who booked this place? Could it be someone else?

Thinking of the bodyguard in black just now, Louis felt a little guilty.

Unexpectedly, when Jenna heard Crystal’s words, her eyes flickered as she praised Louis. “Thank you so much. I came here, yet you had to spend so much.”

Having been complimented by the beautiful lady, Louis’s thoughts drifted away. He said with a bright smile, “Isn’t this all for you?”

Nicole looked at Sharon-who was eating quietly-and asked sarcastically, “Sharon, this is the first time you’ve entered a restaurant like this in your life, right? Have you ever eaten such delicious food before?”

“It’s alright.” Sharon’s reaction was also very cold. Although these dishes have been designed, the taste isn’t that amazing. It feels like they are grandstanding.

Louis gave her a disdainful look. “If you want to eat, you should eat more elegantly. If others find out about this, they’ll think that it’s because the Harris family has never let you eat your fill. You’re really a good-for-nothing. What else can you say? I don’t think you’ll ever eat anything better than this!”

Sharon didn’t take their words to heart. If I return to the Xavier family, would everything be different? Just like what Aunt Natsume said-my mother had been living a luxurious life ever since she was young. If I went back to live there, the food in front of me might just be ordinary food.

Nicole didn’t expect Sharon to be unfazed by their words, so she glared at the latter even more angrily. “Sharon, have you grown up? What kind of attitude are you using to talk to my brother now? Do you think we’re afraid of you just because you have Wallace backing you up? We let you eat at the same table as us because we think highly of you. If you don’t accept our kindness… Believe it or not, but I can get them to chase you out with one word!”

As soon as she said that, the door of the suite was forced open. A pleasant voice was heard, but there was a hint of frustration in the voice. “Where did you guys come from, country bumpkins? Who let you into this room!?”

The person who entered was a mixed-blood woman. She was dressed very sexily, and there was a mole at the corner of her mouth. Below her cheekbones were three centipede-like scars, making her look very scary.

The woman held the name list in one hand and opened the door with the other, her face serious.

A dozen security guards followed closely behind her. Those burly men followed behind her, and the moment they entered, they surrounded everyone present.

Everyone was stunned, and Louis’s face was filled with fear.

Nicole couldn’t help but exclaim, “What are you guys doing!?”
