Stanley’s eyes widened in anger when he heard that. “What do you mean his character is different from
mine? What are you trying to imply about my character? He’s the one who invited me here today, and
there were two other women with me here earlier too. They’ve already left, but if you don’t believe me, I
can call them and ask them toe back and testify
for me.”
William could not be bothered to argue with Stanley and decided to save his breath.
Finally, Catherine said, “Forget it! Whatever happened doesn’t matter anymore. The priority now is to
avoid embarrassing yourself. Let’s just pay up and leave.” She then turned to Robert and asked, “We
are a third-tier family after all, so we can still afford to pay the bill. Could let me know how much is the
total?”

Robert immediately smiled at her. “Hehe, always the bigger person, ma’am. Our general manager
offered a nine-thousand-dor discount, so the total will now be sixty-six thousand.
“Sixty-six thousand?!” Catherine’s face soured when she was informed of the total. The corners of her
mouth twitched a few times, and she even doubted whether or not she heard it correctly, since she had
expected it to be a few thousand or ten or so thousand at most!
George was a little startled too, and he immediately asked, “Why did you spend so much?”
Robert handed over the tablet and said, “See for yourselves. Mister Stanley and hispanions
ordered the most expensive wines, and as you might be able to tell from those empty bottles, they
enjoyed themselves quite a bit. Mister Stanley even requested four of our girls to keep thempany. I
remember there being a lot of people here, and among them were two men, both of which are friends
of Mister Stanley, and three women whom he spent at lot of time with in the past!”
“Uhh…” Stanley immediately lowered his head. He had an extremely ugly expression and secretly
cursed at Robert for not reading the room.
‘Did he really have to bring up stuff that happened in the past?’ Stanley thought. His grandmother
would have turned a blind eye to his past transgressions, and Robert’s revtion. ended up being a
p in the face for Stanley.
“Has life been too good for you, Stanley?” Catherine red at Stanley, and it was obvious that she was
a little angry.
“Whatever I did in the past was all for the sake of discussing business deals, Grandina, and I had to
entertain some of our clients! Besides, I didn’t spend as much on previous asions!” Stanley lowered
his head and exined.
“Is something wrong, Grandma?” Diane asked as soon as she entered the room, having rushed there
as soon as she received a phone call from Catherine in the middle of the night.
When Stanley saw that Diane had arrived, he immediately snorted coldly. “Oh, you don’t even know the
half of it! Everything that happened is Severin’s fault. He said he was going to treat me and my friends
to dinner, but he slipped out halfway through the meal and went to the hotel with another woman! He
just disappeared without saying a word, and he didn’t even bother to foot the bill. Isn’t it obvious that
he’s trying to punish me? The total cost is sixty-six
thousand, so I’ll leave it to you to figure out how to settle it!”
Diane had the feeling that something was wrong while she was on the way there, and her expression
turned ugly as soon as she heard what Stanley said. More importantly, it was clear that Severin had not
come home, because she did not see him in bed when she passed by Severin’s room, and his car was
nowhere to be seen either.
However, she still did not quite believe Stanley’s words, because she believed that Severin would
neither waste sixty-six thousand dors on a meal, nor would he leave without paying when he had
already agreed to treat them.

She turned around and asked Felicia, “Is that what happened, Mom?”
Before Felicia could speak, Cherise said animatedly, “What do you expect? He just got out of prison,
and it’s second nature for him to do something like that. Old habits die hard, and ex- convicts are all
terrible people. It’s because of him that my son wasn’t allowed to leave this ce!”
Diane was enraged when she heard that, and she immediately turned around to look at Cherise.
“Watch your words! Don’t you dare utter such nderous remarks when none of us know what the real
deal is!”
