Chapter 132: Mr. Lee''s Influence
The door was opened slowly.
In that moment, Marcus and others felt their breath caught in their throats as if the door was not to this
room but to the hell.
“If it''s Jonathan, we will all be screwed”
Franklin murmured, shivering. The back of his shirt was soaked with sweat.
Humphrey''s swollen face started twitching when thinking of how he got humiliated by Jonathan, and he
was extremely
frightened.
But Maximilian remained calm and looked at the door with great interest. He could not helpughing
when he saw the beautiful waitress smiling behind the door.
“Haha, it’s just a waitress. Why are you all so nervous?”
Hearing Maximilian’sughing, they all found it harsh and sarcastic.
“No one is nervous, you idiot! You are in no ce to talk. If you keep doing it, we won''t be so polite to
you!"
Franklin feigned fierceness to hide the fear inside him.
Humphrey looked confused because they didn’t even finishing ordering, but the waitress already
started serving foods.
“We haven''t ordered yet. Are you sure you entered the right room?” Humphrey asked.
“There''s no mistake. It''s Manager Thomas''s order”
The leading waitress answered with a smile and put the dishes on the table, “This is the Sweet
Abalone”
The two-headed Abalones were ced neatly in a big te, piled up like a mountain.
Humphrey was stunned when he saw them.
He had only heard of this dish before and believed it would cost dozens of thousand at least.
If other dishes were as expensive as it, Humphrey believed he would go bankrupt scon.
“This is Scallion-vored Sea Cucumbers. “
“This is ck Truffle with Goose Liver. “
“This is...
They were all shocked by these exquisite dishes.
These dishes cost at least worth two million, which was beyond their expectation.
Humphrey thought of something and started looking through the menu. He stopped at the page of
Emperor''s Feast.
His hands started shaking as he looked at the stunning price on the menu.
“Are you... serving us the Emperor''s Feast? ”
“Yes. This is theplete set of Emperor''s Feast”
The pretty waitress ced a bottle of wine on the table, and said, “Should I open this 90''s La
Romanee-Conti now?”
Humphrey almost lost his mind because it was 90s La Romanee-conti, which at least cost 50 thousand
dors a bottle.
“I didn''t order it. How could you make the decision for us? I won''t pay the bills!” Humphrey decided to
deny this feast.
Because the Emperor''s Feast was at least worth 1.5 million dors, which was almost half of his total
assets!
Although Humphrey was a rich man, he didn''t have enough cash to pay for such a fancy dinner.
Therefore, instead of going bankrupt after the meal, he thought it was better to refuse the bills.
Marcus looked at the luxury food on the table. Although he''d like to stay, he just cannot hurt Humphrey
when he saw price on
the menu.
“Humphrey''s right. You serve food even before we finish ordering!” Marcus said.
The waitress smiled and took a bow, “It''s the manager''s order. He will be here soon and he will answer
your questions”
The manager of Lasdun? It could be none other than Thomas.
Hearing that Thomas wasing, Marcus''s heart sank and felt something wrong.
No one in this room had met Thomas before, and they only heard tales of this mysterious man.
“Why would Thomase and bring so many dishes to us? I assume the food will probably cost more
than one million dors”
Marcus said with suspicion and cast a sweeping nce of everyone around the table.
“About 2 million dors with the wines served.” Humphrey said in a low voice.
Iris shot a re at Maximilian and said with dissatisfaction, “It was definitely arranged by Jonathan! He
wants to humiliate us when we are unable to pay the bills and use Thomas to punish us”
“What!” Marcus and others gasped and found it quite reasonable.
“That sounds reasonable. When Thomases, we should tter him, especially Maximilian! If you
say anything stupid again, then don’t me me for your punishment!”

Marcus red at Maximilian, worrying that this man might do stupid thingster. If they offended
Thomas, they would be totally screwed.
“l won''t say anything.” Maximilian shut his mouth.
Marcus felt relieved. Then he heard footsteps and stood up in haste.
“Manager, I didn''t expect that you woulde. I should have weed you at the door”
Marcus said humbly.
“It''s good to see you, Mr. Thomas. I''m Humphrey of DK Investment. We actually have met once in a
party. I have been admiring you for a long time” Humphrey said with respect.
Franklin and others started to tter Thomas.
Thomas was smiling and nodding at whoever was speaking to him, which seemed to be a boss who
was specting his employees.
However, he would cast a nce at Maximilian from time to time. Noticing that Maximilian was silent,
he was somehow afraid.
He wondered if there was anything wrong with the food.
He was frightened and wanted to finish his job and left as soon as possible.
“You are so polite. These foods are all free! Please enjoy yourself”
Marcus, Humphrey and others gasped and found it so unbelievable!
Shouldn''t it be Jonathan''s scheme?
Why did the foods turn out to be free?
Mr. Thomas just sent them these exquisite food and wine, which was worth 4 million for fee?
Or was he so rich that he didn''t care about it?
Even the cost of food ingredients was at least 1 million dors.
“We''re truly blessed. But Manager Thomas, may I ask why do we have this honor to enjoy a free fancy
dinner?” Marcus asked tentatively.
The others all gasped, waiting for Thomas''s answer.
“This dinner is for Mr. Lee”
Thomas said smilingly, his eyes narrowed.
