Chapter 231
"Impossible. Where's the money from anyway?"
Rachel spoke without hesitation, "She did it for her pride, she bragged!"
“But he can't possibly be that stupid, right? This was the Lotus Bar and Lounge, and the owner was a member of a first-rate noble family. He's not gonna eat and run now, is he? have a death wish?" After Britney elaborated on it in detail, she began to doubt if Jack had enough money to pay the bills.
"Fair coin!" At that moment, Rachel was no longer as sure as she was. "I doubt Jack knew who the owner was, considering he had just returned from the army," he commented, "so how could he know so much?"
"I think you made a much better point!" Britney nodded then quickly said, "Hey, I heard that when the veterans come back, those who stay long enough in their department will be able to earn a lot of money because they contribute to the country, and they will be able to retire in glory. Looks like Jack might get the money."
"So you mean maybe about 1 or 2 million? This idiot decided to spend every penny tonight just to save his wife's self-esteem?" Rachel was a little surprised as she continued, "So that's why she was so confident when she spoke. Moreover, she enrolled her son into school this morning and paid. I think he borrowed the money, but it seems like he does have the money. !"
"Yes, but I don't think it's much and it should be just one or two million. Otherwise, the two of them would not have come here by taxi!" Britney continues her demise, "Because the money didn't come easily, and because Jack risked his life for the money, they spent little. It's just that they don't expect us to look down on them and Jack is known to act pretentiously. .To stop his wife from being bullied, he agrees to move rooms. Don't you think this is the problem?"
"Good master, you're doing something right now. You are not the mistress of a third-rate noble family for no reason!" Rachel immediately chuckled and sneered, "Since a person like her likes to pretend, we will allow her. After all, we have spent so much money, maybe he will get hurt after this!"
"Just right!" Britney's expression suddenly dimmed. "We can release them easily... What if they have the money to pay our bills tonight?" he's fretting. "Also, Selena is Matt's ex-girlfriend and I can't stand that woman. I don't want them out of the Lotus Bar and Lounge today, so we can't let them get away with it!"
"But what can we do when they have money?" Rachel took a breath. "I also want to see them struggle to pay the bills then get caught by the boss and, unlucky, maybe even beaten to death," he spoke frankly. "I'll be a happy girl!"
The two women bonded through their similar heinous behavior!
Britney pointed at the two bottles of red wine. "Say, are those two bottles of red wine expensive because they are guarded by two servants?" he sneered.
"You mean?" Rachel seemed to think of something as her eyes twinkled.
The two women then quickly approached the storefront and asked the servants, "Is this wine expensive? What are you guys keeping watch here for? Is it just to admire people?"
"Miss, these two bottles of red wine are the most precious treasures of our company. They are produced in..."
After they finished explaining, a waiter then concluded, "This bottle costs 6.66 million dollars and there are only less than 10 bottles in this world. Drinking a bottle means one less bottle in the world."
"Perfect!"
A glint of malicious intent was seen in Britney's gaze as she immediately said, "Send a bottle to our room. We want it!"
Chapter 232
"Want a bottle? It cost 6.66 million; it's too expensive!" Rachel gasp. "How can you order something this expensive? Are you trying to kill him?" she stuttered.
Britney chuckled threateningly and replied, "What are you afraid of? He said it himself: We can order whatever we want. Besides, if we don't order less, how can we make it stay?"
After some thought, he immediately exclaimed, "No, no, no. A bottle is not enough. We will take both. I was quite interested in tasting what this precious item felt like!"
"Two bottles? That would be more than 13 million including 1.3 million previously. Oh my, that's too expensive ... More than 14 million!" Rachel flabbergasted. He wants Jack to be in a difficult place and also wants him to be silly humiliated, but ... Did spending over 14 million not pressure him to death?
"Didn't you notice how she acted earlier? He claimed to be rich and told us to order whatever we wanted openly. This time, we should give this brat a very good lesson!"
Britney pulled Rachel away from where they were originally standing and whispered, "However, this is a very rare opportunity."
Britney suddenly scoffed at the thought of something. "That reminds me ... Didn't he mention he earns 20 million a month? Didn't he also say he bought two Porsches? In fact we didn't have the heart to buy one and he bought a 911 model. This time, he was in an unlucky world!"
"Right, right, right!" Britney said with a mocking laugh. "Failing to pay the bills will make them very embarrassed, and worst of all, they will offend a first-rate noble family because this business belongs to them!"
Britney chuckled before taking Rachel back to where the bottles were and said, "We've decided to have both bottles, so send them to Room 207! When you arrive, you don't have to ask anything; just open it up for us!"
"Well, those two bottles will add up to about 13 million. Are you sure you want to open both bottles at once, miss?"
One of the maids was already shocked and wondered if he had misheard. No guests had ever ordered the wine for two to three years, the bottles were placed there. Even if they were young masters, they would give up after asking the price.
In addition, most people would feel spending more than 6 million on a bottle of wine would not be worth it.
"Yes, just open it when you bring it. We were also like that when we ordered many bottles of wine beforehand!" Britney nodded with a smile.
Soon, Britney and Rachel return to the room. It's the first time Jack has come to a place like this. It was a unique way to enjoy life and listen to Selena's melodious voice.
"Come, Brother, let's have a drink. It will be a toast to you defending us and our country on the front lines. This is my respect for you!" Hugh had a grin on his face as he approached Jack, a glass of wine in hand.
"Thank you!" Jack smiled.
After clinking a glass with him, he immediately downed the wine.
"That feels good!" Hugh laughed as he also downed the wine with a single gulp.
No one would have thought that even Dylan the alcoholic would also be sitting with them at this moment. "I didn't expect your pianom skills to be this good, Jack," he began, "and you're pretty good-looking, too. Now I understand why a beautiful woman like Selena would be your wife! Even though I hated you this morning, you earned my respect tonight!"
Jack's confused. He had not expected Dylan to say such a thing after drinking so much.
"Come on, I need a drink with you. At least in gratitude for your treats. You bought me a drink in such a luxurious place. I personally can't afford to spend this much money!"
Chapter 233
Dylan's face flushed from drinking too much. It seems like he talks more after drinking. Matt was drinking alone on the other side of the room. He downed wine after wine; he wanted nothing more than to bankrupt Jack.
"What are you doing? Why are you drinking so much?" Britney saw him as soon as he came back and immediately went to his side.
"Didn't he just like a snob? This wine I drink costs 50 thousand per bottle. Fuck it, I'll keep asking for more wine after I'm done with this. Let's see what he'll do when he doesn't have enough money to pay."
Matt turned to look at Jack at the side while laughing sarcastically.
"Ah, then let me tell you..." Britney immediately leaned into Matt's ear and whispered everything to him.
"That's expensive!" it was Matt's first response, a breath coming out of his lips. However, a hint of evil intent flashed across his gaze and said, "Good. Let's do it 'cause he said it was on him. I won't help him even a penny."
"I wonder if he will kneel down and beg that we share the bill with him later." Britney laughed out loud and boasted, "Nobody would approve of it, especially when Rosa's salary was only 10 grand a month and basically had no savings. He couldn't afford the money when he split the bill!"
Matt laughed and poured Britney a glass of wine before giving it to him. He said, "You're really smart. Those two bottles will take his life."
"Well, that's not very sure. What if his monthly salary turns out to be really 20 million dollars?" Britney took a sip of red wine before saying that while laughing coldly.
It was at this time that a servant brought a bucket of ice and two bottles of red wine. After greeting them with a polite smile, the waiter opened the two bottles of wine and placed them on the glass table.
The waiter came out immediately. Jack and the others were unaware of what was happening while they were busy singing and drinking, but Britney and Matt both grinned.
The beautiful maid who was standing at the side and had been serving them all this time noticed the bottles and frowned. After a few thoughts, he walked out.
However, it didn't take long for him to return. Her expression turned bitter after she saw Britney pouring drinks for everyone at this moment.
He went out to gather some information. Supposedly, two women from this room had the waiter serve the bottles of wine. She feels something is wrong when she connects the dots with Jack and Selena as a married couple. However, he did not dare to approach them to speak much. All he could do was stand to the side and smile while waiting for everyone's orders.
Finally, Jack came out to use the restroom. After some thought, the maid was too agitated that she chased after him.
"Master, Master! I don't know if I should do it, but I want to tell you something."
It was only when Jack made his way home that the beautiful maid decided to approach him. "I feel like you're a good person and I'm afraid you're going to be played with people, so I wanted to ask you something. Don't tell anyone that I told you, okay?"
"Played?" Of course, Jack was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered with a smile on his face. "Any scheme or plot would be futile in the face of true power! Tell me: who's trying to trick me?"
Chapter 234
The waiter never thought Jack would still want to make a joke. His behavior made him giggle anxiously before he added, "Master, I'm afraid you're going to need someone very strong to support you in addition to very strong financial ability since you're going to need 14 million."
"What do you mean 14 million?" Jack's eyebrows are wrinkled.
"Oh no... You really don't know, do you?" he muttered.
"Aren't two bottles of red wine brought in early? That's what's claimed to be an additional order? I didn't realize it at the time but when I looked at the bottles, I knew something wasn't right. It was the most precious treasure of our establishment. That's 6.66 million per bottle! There were only two in total, and they actually opened it!"
"I was so shocked that I had to sneak out to ask my colleagues, and they claimed that they were ordered by the two women. Oh, that's right ... They were Matt's girlfriend and Rachel's woman who made the order!"
The beautiful maid frowned and nervously asked, "What are you going to do? You don't know about that, and it looks like they both deliberately played you."
"Heh. I didn't expect the two women to be able to plan so much!" Jack sneered and looked at the beautiful maid in front of him. "Thank you for telling me this. Don'worry. It's just over 10 million, and it doesn't matter to me!"
"It's good that n— doesn't matter at all!" The waiter breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you and your wife were pretty close, so I decided to tell you" she explained. "Also, your pianom's appearance was very good. It's the first time I've listened to something so amazing!"
Jack laughed at his praise. "Thank you for your nice compliment!" Jack smiled and prepared to return.
"By the way, there'll be a boxing match on the third floor. Only guests in luxurious rooms can watch. You can watch later! Especially if there are guests here who can try that challenge and they win, the bill will be free! In addition, they will also win 3 million dollars!"
After some thought, the beautiful maid slowly explained, "Although you are a veteran, you will never be able to— in any way—sign up for the challenge. The champion of the ring is too strong! He's from America, and that guy was great, big and tall. I'm pretty sure he's over two feet tall. Some people who came forward to challenge a few days ago, well.they were all beaten to death."
A long breath escaped his lips. "Some people don't accept the challenge for free bills. Some do it because he—outsoutside—have killed some of our best fighters from our Daxia. They were so dissatisfied that they accepted the challenge."
The waiter sighed for the umpteenth time and said, "The American is too lousy. Although everyone signed a statement before each challenge, no one had been killed before. The fight stopped when one of them gave up. The worst case scenario is just crippling someone. But this guy... Ever since he came, he's killed a lot of our people. He killed them!"
The servant clenched his fists and gnashed his teeth just by conveying the information he knew.
When the two countries go to war then, each war will last several years. Ever since Daxia won, Jack and the others had been able to retire resoundingly. However, it seems that Americans set foot on the land of Daxia to cause occasional trouble. Since the two countries signed the truce, small frictions like this would naturally be ignored. Little hiccups are like this boxing match, of course. After both sides signed the affidavit, they could kill the Daxians without any recourse.
"F*ck!" After Jack listened to her, he could not help but curse. "I have to join. I'm pretty sure he did all that on purpose."
"No, no. Well sir, I'm telling you because I want you guys to watch because you've spent this much, so you're entitled to watch the game on the third floor."
Chapter 235
"Master, he is too strong and has ten wins in a row ..."
The surprised servant frantically tried to persuade him not to do so. He was afraid Jack would lose his life after what he told him.
"Thank you so much for telling me. It's okay if I don't realize it, but since I already know now, that American is going to die!"
Jack left her with that cold statement before stepping back into the room. "It looks like our expenses will be saved," he spoke as his figure retreated back into the room.
"But.he's really..strong!"
The beautiful maid frowned as she looked at Jack. Regretting his decision, he muttered, "I shouldn't have told him. He loved his wife very much... What if he died to defend Daxia? That's bad!"
Time slowly passed and when it was almost 11 hours, everyone felt they had enough to drink.
The taste of the two bottles of red wine was amazing because Jack and Selena drank a glass.
"Jack, it seems like these two bottles of red wine have a very different taste from the others, and that's strange. What's even stranger is that Rachel seems sober and helped pour us a drink!"
After he finished speaking, he gasped and spoke in a slightly frightened tone, "Oh my goodness... There's nothing wrong with these two bottles, right? They won't be poisoned now, will they? Or..."
Jack felt awkward as he laughed out loud. "Darling, I didn't expect your imagination to be this big, but don't worry; it wasn't. In fact, you will soon know if there is anything suspicious about those two bottles of wine!"
Jack stood up and was about to pay the bill.
"Geez, it's time. Is everyone having fun?"
Britney immediately smiled and said, "Of course. We're very happy. I don't come to places like this often. I didn't expect you, Jack, a bodyguard was able to take care of us here, in this place. I really didn't expect it."
At this moment, a supervisor walked in and smiled at everyone in the room. He said, "Gentlemen and ladies, because your room is the one that spent the most money tonight and also broke our Lotus Bar and Lounge record in the ten years since we opened, he said, our manager agreed to offer you 8.8 percent discount. !"
"Geez! Really true?" Selena was happy when she said, "I didn't hear wrong, did I? An 8.8 percent discount can save you a lot of money!"
Of course, it didn't take long to realize it. "That's impossible, right? We only spent 1.3 million. Isn't the lowest spending rate here a million? How can we break the ten-year record?"
"It's impossible, right? Breaking records just like that?" Dylan was also stunned. "See from the looks of it, the people who came here all spent a million dollars budget, right? We just spent a little bit more than that, and we broke the record?"
"I'm afraid he still won't be able to pay the bill even after the 8.8 percent discount!" Britney sneered as she waited for everything to be revealed.
Rosa and Hugh looked at each other and were very worried if Jack had the money to pay the bills. If he doesn't do it, everything will be bad.
"What do you mean 1.3 million? The total amount you spend is 14.67 million. After the discount, it became 12.9 million. Our manager says he can round up his value, so all you have to pay is 12.9 million. !"
The supervisor smiled and took out a few bottles of red wine. "That's right, this is your gift," he spoke. "You can enjoy it at home."
