Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 791-While the mother and son were exchanging whispers, Mackenzie stood by the car, pretending not to hear them..

She was actually quite conflicted.

She was well aware of her grandfather’s and Alessandra’s wishes.

If giving birth didn’t involve the conventional process of male-female union, the long gestation period, and the pain of childbirth, as if it were just casting a spell and producing a little figure, she would have produced a dozen or so by now.

Alas, a troublesome wish, yet it had to be done. What a headache!

After ending his hushed conversation with Alessandra, Emmanuel hurriedly walked over to Mackenzie.

“Finished talking?” Mackenzie asked proactively.

“Yes!” Emmanuel nodded, unsure if Mackenzie had heard their whispered conversation.

“Let’s go home then!” “Okay!” He quickly opened the car door for his wife, then took the front passenger seat himself.

Alessandra still clung to them, watching their car leave and muttering for them to come home more often.

Through the rearview mirror, Mackenzie watched Alessandra’s gradually receding figure until it disappeared completely. Then, she spoke up, “Emmanuel, how about we find other relatives to accompany your mother?” “Huh?” Emmanuel’s body trembled, and he hurriedly asked, “Mackenzie, are you suggesting…” He thought Mackenzie had made up her mind about having a baby.

But unexpectedly, Mackenzie asked, “How are Ryder and Tia doing? If possible, let your cousin’s family live with your mother, and I can arrange their Ignite Your Entrepreneurial Spirit:… D Terence Group’s Black Card Emmanuel understood that this was for the convenience of people like his 4/5 wife, who was of significant stature. It saved time compared to using regular cards and making payments.

Of course, it was also a symbol of status. novelbin People of stature wouldn’t go through the trouble of scanning QR codes for payments like regular folks, especially in high-end establishments.

However, Emmanuel wasn’t entirely sure about Mackenzie’s intention in giving him the card. So, he asked, “Are you planning to lend it to Ryder?” “Yes.” Mackenzie nodded slightly. “I know you don’t want to leave your mother alone at home, but I haven’t thought about living with her temporarily. This seems to be the only solution.” Emmanuel nodded. Alessandra hadn’t asked to live with him and Mackenzie, so he wouldn’t impose such a request on Mackenzie either.

He also didn’t want to leave Mackenzie alone at home and go to his mother’s.

Moreover, his mother probably wouldn’t want that either. So, this might be a suitable solution for now.

Moreover, if Ryder was pursuing Tia, he could really use this card to help.

Early the next morning, after Emmanuel dropped Mackenzie off at work, he went to find Ryder.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 792-Ryder was doing some laborious work when he saw Emmanuel approaching.

He quickly wiped his sweat and jogged over. “Manny, what’s up?” “Here’s the thing, Ryder…” Emmanuel briefly explained his conversation with Mackenzie last night to Ryder, and then handed him the Black Card.

“How,.. How can I accept this?

Ryder trembled all over. How could he, an ordinary and unattractive guy, have the courage to accept a Black Card gifted by a beautiful and wealthy woman?

The card in his hand felt like a hot potato, and he quickly tried to give it back to Emmanuel.

“Ryder, please accept it!” Emmanuel held his hand tightly, a hint of plea in his tone. “Mackenzie also hopes that you’ll win Tia’s heart soon and have a baby, 2 so my mom can hold a grandchild. In terms of living conditions, she’ll offer you assistance!” After all, Emmanuel also believed that this approach was more reliable than him and Mackenzie having a baby. It could temporarily fulfill his mother’s wish to hold a grandchild!

“Well…alright then, please thank Ms. Quillen for me!” Although Ryder was an honest person, he didn’t want to accept the card, even if just this once. He also wanted to show off a little in front of Tia.

Besides, he hadn’t taken his son to a high-end place for so many years; he felt guilty as a father. Since Emmanuel and Mackenzie had this intention, he decided to accept it gratefully.

That afternoon, Ryder finished work a little earlier and drove to the kindergarten on his electric scooter.

This marked Tommy’s final few months at the kindergarten. Ryder had been worried that after Tommy graduated, he wouldn’t have an excuse to see Tia anymore. He was anxious to solidify his relationship with Tia before Tommy left the kindergarten, as it would be difficult to find another chance later.

Ignite Your Entrepreneurial Spirit:… 4 Inviting Tia to Dinner 4/5 Seeing that Ryder didn’t immediately leave with Tommy, she frowned slightly and asked, “Mr. Lowe, is there something else?” Seeing that there weren’t many people around now, Ryder gathered his courage and said with a trembling voice, “Tia, I… I want to invite you to dinner tonight. If it’s convenient, can you bring your mom along?” It was something Emmanuel suggested he do. He knew that Tia’s mother placed a lot of importance on the financial capabilities of potential partners.

Tia did indeed become nervous. She discreetly glanced around and couldn’t novelbin decide whether to refuse or agree.

7 “Haha, um… if you’re not available, then… maybe another time!” Ryder’s courage gradually waned, and he seemed anxious to leave.

Fortunately, he had his son with him, so the little guy quickly spoke up for his father. “Ms. Franks, please say yes!”:

“Well… alright, but you’ll have to wait a bit!” Tia eventually agreed.

“No problem! We can wait as long as it takes!” Ryder suddenly became extremely excited. He quickly took his son’s hand and left the scene to avoid drawing attention.

Watching their figures recede, Tia bit her lip and decided to send a message to her mother.

Since her mother hadn’t left Yeringham for home yet, she would leave the decision of whether to come over up to herself.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 793-Ryder and his son had been waiting near the intersection close to the kindergarten.

When it was nearing 7 p.m., Tia finally emerged from the kindergarten.

1/5 “Mr. Lowe, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting. I had a few things to take care of.” Tia remained polite toward Ryder.

In truth, she didn’t have any urgent matters to attend to. She had just been waiting at the kindergarten for her mother to arrive, deliberately avoiding spending time with Ryder and his son to prevent any gossip. novelbin “No problem at all. Work comes first. Shall we go then?” Ryder beamed.

He didn’t care whether things would work out between him and Tia in the end. Just being able to spend more time with her already filled his heart with contentment and joy.

“My mom should be here soon.” As Tia spoke, a taxi pulled up in front of the Marianne Meets Ryder T kindergarten and out stepped Marianne.

“Tia, who’s treating us to dinner? Where are we going?” Marianne hurriedly walked over to her daughter, paying no attention to Ryder and his son.

Tia had just messaged her mother, informing her that Emmanuel’s cousin, Ryder, was treating them to dinner. Subconsciously, Marianne assumed that if Emmanuel was handsome and wealthy, then Ryder shouldn’t be too shabby either.

Little did she expect Tia to point at Ryder and say, “It’s Mr. Lowe. He’s inviting us to dinner.” Ryder quickly approached them, wearing a polite smile. “You must be Tia’s mother. You look so youthful!” Marianne’s excited expression froze on the spot.

She alternated between pointing at Ryder and looking at her daughter, still finding it hard to believe.

Marianne Meets Ryder 3/5 Good Lord, this man is related to the handsome and wealthy Emmanuel?! But he looks older than me! Can Tia really be interested in someone like him?

Tia was well aware of her mother’s thoughts as she thought the same emotional roller coaster when she first learned that Ryder and Emmanuel were cousins.

“Mom, he’s greeting you. Why aren’t you responding?” “…” Marianne was momentarily speechless.

If she hadn’t known that the man before her was Emmanuel’s cousin, she would’ve kicked him to the north pole and let him have an eternal romance with the polar bears.

Who did he think he was to pursue her daughter with his character and even carry a deadweight with him?!

Ryder’s smile gradually turned awkward when he saw Marianne’s reaction, and his sense of inferiority awoken again. Sigh, I really am not good enough for Tia.

After a while, Marianne finally exhaled deeply and asked, “So, where do you plan on taking us for dinner?” Since they were already here, she might as well go along with it. It’d be a waste not to eat.

“Well, Mrs. Franks, where do you want to go?” Ryder politely asked.

“Don’t call me Mrs. Franks. It makes me sound old. Just call me Marianne.” “Alright, Ms. Marianne!” Ryder, being a straightforward person, still added an honorific as a sign of respect.

But Marianne didn’t like it at all. She thought the man before her eyes looked older than her, so she didn’t like the fact that he used honorifics on her.

“Can you afford wherever I suggest?” Marianne asked somewhat aggressively.

Ryder nodded with a stiff smile, thinking that Emmanuel would never deceive him. He could afford to eat at high-end places for free and treat them at low-end places.

“Alright, let’s go to Kellen’s Heavenly Feast, then!” Marianne stated directly, thinking that Ryder would back down and she wouldn’t have to eat with him.

“Mom, are you crazy?!” Tia was stupefied.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 794-Like the Serenity Resort, Kellen’s Heavenly Feast was a top-tier dining establishment in Yeringham. A meal there would cost at least five figures, and Ryder, an ordinary worker, certainly couldn’t afford it.

Though Tia knew her mother didn’t like Ryder, she didn’t expect her to be so malicious.

“Mr. Lowe, maybe we should forget about it. Thank you for the sweet gesture,” Tia said quickly to Ryder.

Ryder was indeed feeling very uncomfortable. Still, he gritted his teeth and said, “It’s alright, Tia. If it’s Kellen’s Heavenly Feast your mother wants, we’ll go.” “But…” Tia and Marianne were stunned. Is this man really determined to see this through?

“Huh, let’s go then. Where’s your car?” Marianne glanced at Ryder with raised eyebrows. If he wanted to pursue her daughter, he’d have to pay some price.

“… I only have an electric scooter…” Ryder spoke with his head down, almost burying his face in the ground.

Marianne was dumbfounded. She could tell at a glance that Ryder was pathetic, but she didn’t expect him to be so pitiful.

“I… I’ll hail a taxi!” Seeing how persistent Ryder was, Tia began feeling sorry for him. The man was really going all out to pursue her, no matter the cost!

Soon, a taxi arrived, and the four of them got in and headed to Kellen’s Heavenly Feast.

“Wow, Dad! This place is so beautiful!” Tommy gushed in admiration while looking at the magnificent building as soon as they exited the car.

At night, Kellen’s Heavenly Feast was adorned with shimmering lights, resembling a fairy castle. Its exterior even outshone Serenity Resort “Think twice. A meal here costs at least six figures! I don’t want to bankrupt Kellen’s Heavenly Feast you!” Marianne decided to give Ryder another chance to back out. Her intention was only to deter this unattractive man; she didn’t want to harm him.

“Well, we’re already here. Might as well go inside,” said Ryder through gritted his teeth. In actuality, he was rather nervous.

3/5 Even more unexpectedly, just as they were about to approach the entrance of Kellen’s Heavenly Feast, another taxi pulled up, and two women and a boy got out.

It was none other than the Sheppard sisters, along with Robby! novelbin The two groups collided head-on, leaving both sides somewhat bewildered and incredulous.

What kind of fateful encounter was this to meet in a place like this?! Could it be called an unresolved karmic bond?

Abellyn had previously acted pitifully in front of Ryder, claiming that she couldn’t even afford to eat, and yet, here she was in this up

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 795-“Oh, so you’ve struck it rich? No wonder there’s such a pretty lady willing to have dinner with you!” Chloe deliberately looked at Tia.

Abellyn was also curious and asked loudly, “Tia, what exactly do you see in Ryder? Tell me, did you two get involved before our divorce?” “I… I didn’t. Don’t make baseless accusations!” Tia quickly responded, her anger flaring.

W Abellyn was about to continue her tirade when Chloe quickly held her back and said to Ryder, “You’ve been married to my sister for seven years, yet you’ve never brought her to a place like this for dinner. Now that you’ve met a new woman, you bring her here to spend money. Do you think it’s appropriate?” Ryder was slow with words, and because Chloe had a point, he didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

“How about this? Since we’ve run into each other today, whether you invite one person or two, it’s still an invitation. My sister has been with you as a wife for many years. It’s not outrageous for you to treat her to a meal, right?” Chloe was skilled with her words, and Ryder couldn’t quite match her.

“What’s wrong? You’re not acting rich in front of your new love interest and acting poor in front of your ex-wife, are you?” Chloe tried to provoke him further.

Ryder turned to look at Marianne.

Men find it most difficult to maintain their dignity in front of the woman they like and their future mother-in-law, especially since he knew that Marianne was assessing his financial capability to decide whether her daughter should be with him.

7 “Fine! Let’s go together then!” Ryder impulsively agreed.

Either way, Emmanuel told him the card Mackenzie gave could cover the bill.

It didn’t matter if there was one person or ten-it was all the same.

Seeing him agree, Abellyn became surprisingly furious.

Back when they were together, he never tried to show off his wealth, always appearing timid. But now, he seemed quite adept at it.

Chloe, however, held her back and whispered in her ear, “Let him pretend if he wants to. We can save money!” Chloe’s reminder woke her up.

Originally, Abellyn had brought her sister and nephew here this night.

because she suddenly received a million from Blake. She wanted to enjoy herself and flaunt herself on social media.

Although she had a million dollars, she didn’t want to spend it all at once in revenge; she intended to save some of it. But with Ryder around, she realized it was an opportunity.

Regardless, in a little while, she would bankrupt him. If he couldn’t pay, she would humiliate him thoroughly and crush his dignity.

“Let’s go then!” Abellyn sashayed in, leading the way.

Robby followed his mother while holding her hand and discreetly glanced at Tia.

He didn’t find this woman more attractive than his aunt. Her butt wasn’t big enough. Ryder, this ugly man, really had no taste!

“Well… let’s go in too!” Ryder finally held Tommy’s hand and invited Tia and her mother.

Marianne looked at the man differently while also worrying about whether he actually had any money.

“Madam, how many in your party? Would you like a private room?” Abellyn was the first to arrive at the entrance, where two handsome men and two beautiful women greeted them with professional smiles.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 796-Indeed, this was a top-class restaurant!

“Six people-oh, no, it’s seven!” Abellyn exclaimed pompously. “I heard that you have an Emperor’s Suite here. I want that room!” “Madam, the Emperor’s Suite has a minimum spending of 168,000. Is that acceptable?” The handsome greeter asked with a smile.

Trained professionals like him wouldn’t display any doubt in their demeanor, even if they suspected that these people might not be able to afford it.

“Wow, 168,000?” Abellyn exclaimed with feigned surprise, then turned to Ryder, asking, “Is it okay?” Seeing Marianne and Tia’s gazes also falling on him, Ryder gritted his teeth and said, “It’s fine.” Abellyn was shocked, seeing how generous he was behaving. You motherf*cker, you insist on putting on this facade, eh? Well, don’t blame me for bringing you down!

“Waiter, give us the most luxurious private room!” “The most luxurious? So, you’re not interested in the Emperor’s Suite?” The handsome greeter asked again.

Everyone was stunned.

“The Emperor’s Suite isn’t the most luxurious? What’s your most luxurious suite then?” Chloe quickly inquired. “The Divine Pantheon Suite, with a minimum spending of 388,000. Is that acceptable?” Pfft! The Sheppard sisters nearly coughed up blood simultaneously.

Poverty really limited one’s imagination. They were familiar with the Emperor’s Suite at best. They never expected there to be something even more luxurious like the Divine Pantheon Suite.

“Great! We’ll take that private room!” Abellyn made the decision without even consulting Ryder.

Ignite Your Entrepreneurial Spirit:… sponsored by Entrepreneur Classes The Divine Pantheon Suite “Dear guests, please follow me!” This time, a different beautiful woman guided them to the suite.

3/5 Seeing this woman in a tight-fitting dress uniform, all the women present felt a bit inadequate. They thought they weren’t even worthy of being servers here, yet they were dining in the most luxurious Divine Pantheon Suite on this day.

Ryder was trembling all over. While he believed Emmanuel wouldn’t deceive him, he was still extremely nervous.

It was Tommy who spoke up to reassure him, “Dad, don’t worry, Uncle Manny won’t deceive us!” The father and son had a conversation earlier when they were waiting for Tia, so the boy knew about the Black Card.

“Yeah… yeah.” Ryder nodded repeatedly, but his forehead was still sweating profusely.

Soon, the seven of them entered the Divine Pantheon Suite.

Upon seeing the luxurious interior decoration of the room, they all seemed to be in awe.

Crystal and glass chandeliers hung from the ceiling.

The air was purified with negative ions.

Any one of the antique jades inside the room would probably cost a fortune if the slightest damage occurred; maybe even their combined kidney sales wouldn’t be enough to compensate.

As for the embroidered carpet under their feet, it was more expensive than everything they were wearing combined. They were afraid of dirtying such a valuable item.

As she observed their reactions, the uniformed beauty began to doubt whether they could afford this level of consumption.

27 Nonetheless, she maintained a cheerful smile and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, there is a requirement for this private room. You need to prepay the minimum spending before entering.” Everyone’s gaze fell on Ryder.

Abellyn even smirked, wondering if this man could actually produce 388,800.

“Um… we have a card.” Ryder certainly didn’t have 388,000. He quickly said to the uniformed beauty, “The Terence Group’s Black Card!” Immediately, the uniformed beauty wore another beautiful smile.

Kellen’s Heavenly Feast had a partnership with Terence Group, and the owner had a good relationship with Terence. It was rare for someone with the Quillens’ Black Card to dine here.

“Ah, you’re a Black Card customer. Please come in quickly!” With this confirmation, the uniformed beauty ushered them inside.

Afterward, several good-looking servers wère specifically assigned to take their orders. novelbin A rare opportunity in life to dine in such a palace-like restaurant and 2 experience royal treatment, the women naturally didn’t want to have any regrets. Especially the Sheppard sisters. They ordered dishes without any consideration for their prices.

Ignite Your Entrepreneurial Spirit:… sponsored by Entreprenetiof Classes

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 797-The Outrageous Order Marianne was equally unabashed; if Ryder wanted to pursue her daughter, he needed to show some sincerity.

Ryder’s heart sank when he saw the women ordering so many dishes at once. What if Emmanuel’s card can’t cover the expenses? I won’t be able to afford the bill even if I sell my kidney!

“Ryder, don’t worry! We didn’t order that much. With you being such a high roller, we won’t eat away all your money. Haha…” Abellyn looked at Ryder’s expression and appeared as though she was having a blast.

After seven years of marriage, she was finally going to make him pay. She would drain him of every last drop!

“Come, Robby, check out the children’s menu!” Abellyn handed the menu to Robby and continued ordering random items.

Tommy hadn’t even had the chance to look at the menu yet!

Ryder was full of regret. How could he have been so foolish as to agree to treat the Sheppard sisters to dinner?!

2/5 “Alright, we’re about done with the orders!” After Robby finished, Chloe finally closed the menu.

Ryder thought it was finally over, but he couldn’t catch a break. Chloe smiled novelbin and said, “Since it’s rare for us to be here, how can we not have some wine?

Right, Mrs. Franks?” Marianne hadn’t expected Chloe to engage her in conversation. She nodded instinctively. “Of course! How can we come to a place like this and just eat?” Tia couldn’t help but look at Ryder with some concern after hearing her mother’s words. She knew she wasn’t worth that much money, so why was 7 Ryder still tolerating this situation? Why wasn’t he breaking things off now rather than facing humiliation later?

However, Ryder didn’t confront the situation. He discreetly messaged Emmanuel, informing him of the current situation and reconfirming whether the Black Card would indeed cover the expenses.

“Huh, let’s have five bottles of 1982 Lafite, then!” Chloe proceeded to order five bottles of red wine in one go.

Good Lord, the cost of wine alone might already amount to over 400,000!

Ryder’s face turned pale, and his teeth were grinding. Does Chloe Sheppard think she could drink Lafite like beer?

Fortunately, he received a reply from Emmanuel right then.

4/5 ‘Relax, Ryder. Just perform well in front of Tia and not worry about the money.

If you encounter any issues, just give me a call.

Even if Mackenzie’s Black Card failed, as long as Ryder called him, Emmanuel could transfer money over immediately.

It would be absolutely foolproof!

Seeing this message, Ryder felt a little relieved. Following Emmanuel’s instructions, he said to Tia and her mother, “Tia, Ms. Marianne, feel free to order whatever you want. Don’t hold back!” Marianne nodded and smiled, which made her seem somewhat satisfied with the old man. Despite his unattractive appearance, he seemed more reliable than men like longthan 5/5 Abellyn, witnessing this, clenched her teeth in frustration. She had planned to flaunt her newly acquired one million in front of Ryder, but unexpectedly, before she even had the chance, he had turned the tables and showed off to her instead.

This is outrageous! You can keep pretending! I’ll see how you end up later!

Abellyn gritted her teeth and muttered to herself.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 798-As expected of a top-notch restaurant, the speed of serving the dishes was first-rate. The moment the seven individuals laid their eyes on the table filled with exquisite delicacies, their eyes lit up, and saliva practically dripped.

Especially Abellyn. She attacked the food and drinks as though she had been starved for years, completely disregarding her image. novelbin Even Robby showed no manners, eating messily just like her.

Ryder’s mood was greatly affected by this, but fortunately, there was an ample amount of food and a spacious table. Marianne and Tia weren’t too bothered.

All seven indulged themselves to the fullest!

After a full two hours, Abellyn and Chloe were half-sprawled in their chairs, patting their slightly bulging bellies, burping like crazy.

Seeing the sisters spread their legs, uncaring of decency and losing all semblance of dignity, Ryder looked disgusted.

Tia also couldn’t eat peacefully, constantly worried about what would happen if Ryder couldn’t afford the bill.

The server promptly brought the bill, smiling as she approached, “Madam, your total consumption is 1.08 million. Would you like to pay by card or scan the code?” This server wasn’t the same one who had worn the uniform earlier, so she was unaware of the Black Card’s existence.

Hearing her mention a bill of 1.08 million, everyone in the room was shocked!

Ryder and Tia were almost scared out of their wits.

They had never spent as much on food in their entire lives, even if they had added up all their previous meals.

Abellyn chuckled and pointed at Ryder. “You’re mistaken. He’s treating us today.” The beautiful server was also taken aback, let alone the fury building up inside Ryder right now.

Throughout the evening, he had been acting according to Abellyn’s whims, www and now he was the one left with the bill. He felt like a complete sucker!

Sigh, he was just plain foolish!

Being an honest person, Ryder could only grit his teeth and swallow the bitterness. After all, he had agreed to treat them. As they said, one had to see it through, even if it hurt!

He took the bill and realized that the alcohol alone accounted for almost half of the total, and two bottles of Lafite were still corked, with their seals unbroken!

7 “Um, can those two bottles of wine be returned?” “Certainly, sir. Returning those two bottles of wine will reduce the bill by 200,000!” The next second, the Sheppard sisters immediately stood up and opened the two bottles of wine with a loud pop.

2 The entire room fell silent.

The Jaw-Dropping Bill Ryder, who was already furious, turned beyond grim in an instant.

What the f*ck?! How can there be such shameless women in this world?!

Instead of being afraid of Ryder’s grim expression, the Sheppard sisters taunted triumphantly, “Ryder, didn’t we agree that you would treat us tonight? What’s this? You’ve only changed your mind after we’ve eaten?

You’re not a man at all!” 4/5 Huff… huff… huff… Ryder’s breathing became increasingly rapid, and his chest was about to burst.

After a while, he slammed the table and exploded in anger. “Abellyn Sheppard! Since you and your sister have decided to act shamelessly tonight, I’m not going to carry your weight anymore! This dinner’s going Dutch. I’ll only pay for four people. As for what you’ve eaten, settle the bill yourselves!” He had had enough! This honest man had had enough!

Tia also looked at Ryder. While his current demeanor was somewhat intimidating, she believed what he did was right.

If he continued to put up with his ex-wife’s behavior, she would think he was weak or that he was still in love with that woman.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 799-“Ryder, you son of a b*tch!” 1/5 Now that he had torn down the facade, Abellyn didn’t hold back either. She pointed at him and scolded, “You promised to treat us to this meal when we entered. Now you’re backing out after we’ve eaten? You’re truly not a man!” “That’s right! Stop pretending to be rich! With your behavior, how do you expect to get married?! Disgusting! Dream on!” Chloe quickly backed her sister up and turned to the Franks. “Do you see this man’s true colors now?

He’s a hypocrite, poor, ugly, and short! Quickly distance yourselves from this trash!” Anyway, dinner was over, and there was no need to pretend anymore.

They originally thought Marianne and Tia would take their side, but to their surprise, Tia defended Ryder. They didn’t expect Tia to say, “I don’t care how Mr. Lowe has treated you, but he has been consistent with us. He said he’d treat us to the meal, and he did.” 2/5 “You-” The Abellyn sisters were furious, pointing at Tia accusingly. “How dare you two! You two really are a perfect pair of deceitful lovers!” “Everyone, please stop!” The beautiful server, not wanting to witness this drama, sternly intervened, “I don’t care about your personal grievances or promises. If no one is willing to pay the bill, then I’ll split the bill into seven equal parts. If anyone can’t pay, I’m sorry, but you’ll be having a chat at the police station.” This angered Abellyn even more, so much so that she felt like she might burst.

She and her sister had recklessly ordered without a second thought, believing that they wouldn’t have to foot the bill. But now, it seemed they had shot themselves in the foot.

She had only recently acquired the one million dollars, was she supposed to spend more than half of it on a single meal?! She couldn’t accept it.

All of this is because of that shameless Ryder. He had set a trap for me, that scoundrel!

Ignite Your Entrepreneu 3/5 “Forget it, Abellyn. Let’s not stoop to his level. In my opinion, I think even paying my 3/4ths share will be tough for me!” Chloe was livid as well, but what could she do at this point? She had been outsmarted!

She never expected someone like Ryder to actually flip out.

She miscalculated!

“Fine! Let’s see how you’ll pay the bill! Let’s go!” Abellyn then gestured to leave the Divine Pantheon Suite and head to the front desk to pay the bill.

7 They believed Ryder wouldn’t be able to cover his part of the bill, but Ryder thought the same of them.

Just a few days ago, Abellyn was almost starving, and now she suddenly had money?! It didn’t make sense!

Yet, to everyone’s surprise, Abellyn actually paid her share of 460,000!

Seeing the dumbfounded look on Ryder’s face was a sweet victory for Abellyn.

But they didn’t expect that Abellyn would really bite the bullet and pay the 460,000 bill!

“Haha, Ryder, just so you know, tens of thousands mean nothing to me now. I want to see how you’re going to pay the remaining 620,000! Better get ready to go to jail!” Marianne, hearing this, grew worried. What if Ryder really couldn’t afford the rest? He didn’t want to end up in jail over a meal.

“Ryder, do you have enough money? I have some if you need it.” Tia, concerned, pulled out her own bank card. She had partaken in the meal, and she felt a responsibility to step in now.

“No, no need!” Ryder quickly waved her off. “I can handle it.” As he spoke, he reached into his pocket, took out a black card, and handed it to the cashier.

sorry, sir, but this card can’t be Ryder was stunned on the spot.

He had always wholeheartedly believed in Emmanuel and would never even consider the possibility of the latter deceiving him, but now, the facts were right before him, forcing him to believe!

“Haha, what a laugh!” The Sheppard sisters burst into laughter, mocking loudly, “Do you have no idea how much money you have in your account?!

You’ve been pretending all night, and now your true colors are revealed!” Tia was also deeply affected. In her mind, Ryder might not be handsome, but he was a reliable man. However, this incident shattered the image she had of him.

Just as Ryder was at a loss, Tommy tugged at his hand hard and reminded him, “Dad, you grabbed the wrong card. This isn’t the one Uncle Manny gave you!” It was then that Ryder woke up from his stupor and looked at the card in his hand. He realized it was actually a VIP card for a nearby mall.

No wonder the cashier looked so strangely at him. She probably thought he was an idiot!novelbin “Sorry, I grabbed the wrong one…” ” 2/5 Ryder hurriedly took the card back, pulled out the black card that Emmanuel had given him, confirmed its identity, and then handed it over.

This time, the cashier was stunned.

She quickly pressed some buttons and informed the manager.

Shortly afterward, a man in a suit arrived with several handsome men and women.

One of them was the uniformed female supervisor from earlier.

“Sir, we apologize. As a Black Card user, you shouldn’t have had to come personally to settle the bill. Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience,” the manager apologized.

Their boss had a solid relationship with Terence Group, and they were business partners. If their boss found out about this incident and scolded them, this manager would surely end up in trouble.

Ryder was a bit dazed, and the Sheppard sisters were stupefied even more 1. What was going on? When did this ugly and poor guy gain such capabilities?

Abellyn had been married to him for seven years and had never enjoyed such treatment!

Even more unexpectedly, because Ryder was still reeling in shock, the female supervisor actually hurried over and slapped herself hard across the face.

“Sir, I’m sorry! It’s my negligence. I should have informed the manager earlier.

Please, can you forgive me?” Tears filled her eyes as she begged for forgiveness, and her cheek reddened from the impact of her slap.

Being a supervisor here came with a salary and benefits that could easily

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 800-Turn of Events 4/5 crush what many ordinary people earn. She had worked hard for three years to attain this position. If Ryder showed even the slightest dissatisfaction, she could lose this proud job.

“Oh no, no, it’s not your fault!” Ryder finally came to himself and waved his hands repeatedly. “I’m not blaming you, really! It’s nothing serious at all!” Finally, the supervisor felt relieved and thanked him tearfully.

The Sheppard sisters were completely dumbfounded, their mouths hanging open in disbelief.

This unexpected turn of events also took Marianne aback. This ugly, man had some capability, after all.
