Chapter 31: Audacity
“What do you mean? You have to pay four hundred and fifty thousand for the dinner! Do you think you can leave without paying?” Lincoln snorted.
“I have free dinners wherever I go! What bill are you talking about?” David raised his brows.
“Stop playing dumb! There are so many witnesses here, including the staff. Do you think you can get away with free meals? Don’t act so tough just because you’ve been to prison. This restaurant is owned by the Sullivan family. You’re gravely mistaken if you think you can get away!”
Lincoln assumed that David was acting tough to get free meals just because he was an ex-convict.
“Well, go ahead and ask the cashier if I need to pay my bill.” A smile flashed across David’s face.
After staring at David with his puzzled expression for a moment, Lincoln turned and asked the cashier, “This fellow is trying to get away with a free meal. What are you guys going to do about it?”
“Sir, Mr. Chance doesn’t need to pay whenever he dines here,” the cashier answered politely.
As soon as the cashier finished the sentence, Lincoln felt as if he was just struck by lightning. He froze on the spot.
The others were just as dumbfounded as Lincoln was. Why doesn’t David need to pay?
“Why is that? Why doesn’t he need to pay?” Lincoln asked in bewilderment.
“Sir, I’m not obliged to answer that question of yours. However, I do need you to pay the difference.
After deducting Mr. Chance’s four hundred and fifty thousand, you still owe us one million six hundred and fifty thousand. May I know if you’re making the payment by cash or by card?” the cashier asked sternly.
Lincoln was baffled at the turn of events. Who the hell is he? Why doesn’t he need to pay when he dines at Glamor Hotel?
Yvonne and Michelle were also staring at David in astonishment.
“If you had the balls to extort money from women, I’m sure you’re a sharp-witted person. So what are you waiting for? Didn’t you hear her say one million six hundred and fifty thousand? Pay up!” David smiled and looked at Lincoln contemptuously.
