“Give me a bottle of the most expensive red wine here,” Gerald said to the waiter with a smile NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
The waiter froze for a moment and then said, “Sir, the most expensive red wine here is sold for 80
thousand dollars.”
Beside her, Audrey froze first and then gave a smile
She did not like Brian in the first place. Brian had been pestering her during his university days. She
was very disgusted, but because he had been chasing Audrey, he had often bought dinner for
Audrey’s roommates. Therefore, he was close with Audrey’s roommates.
This time, Sophia and Tara told him the news of Audrey, and then he ran over
Although Audrey did not know Gerald’s background, just because she knew Gerald had a Diamond
Card from New Bank, she knew this bottle of red wine was nothing to Gerald.
However, Brian was different!
He was not in the management of the Kenneth family yet, so he couldn’t earn 160 thousand dollars
a year
Judging from how Brian had shown off just now, if his salary were very high now, he would
definitely say it out loud.
He did not say it, so it proved his salary was actually quite ordinary
He could afford a bottle of wine that was worth around 3,000 dollars, but this 80-thousand-dollar
wine would probably cost his annual salary
She smiled and said to the waiter, “Go open it!”
The waiter nodded and left the dining table. Sophia and Tara both had astonished expressions on
their faces, and they couldn’t utter a sound.
They also thought Gerald must have no money. They also knew Brian asked Gerald to pay the bill
together just to humiliate Gerald.
They were fully astonished when Gerald spoke.
Brian’s face was red. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something. But Gerald looked at him
with a smile and said casually, “it’s just 80 thousand dollars. We will only need to pay 40 thousand
dollars each. You can afford it, can’t you?”
Gerald repeated what Brian had said
Hearing that, Brian felt his throat tremble. He really wanted to refuse, but if he refused, he would
feel embarrassed.
Brian thought Gerald and Audrey had taken a taxi here, and the way Gerald was dressed indicated
he was not rich. Brian gritted his teeth, looked at Gerald, and said, “You don’t look like a rich person at
all. What? You have been relying on Audrey? You pretend to be rich with Audrey’s money?”
He knew Audrey’s family was rich. In fact, Brian chased Audrey not only because she was extremely
beautiful, but also because she came from money!
If Brian could be with Audrey, he would not have to work for the rest of his life.
Therefore, there was no problem for Audrey to pay for this bottle of wine.
Audrey glanced at Brian and said calmly, “First of all, Gerald is much richer than my father Second,
I am willing to give him money. It’s none of your business.”
Brian’s face darkened. He gritted his teeth and looked at Gerald. “If he were rich, he wouldn’t have
taken a taxi here with you or dressed like this.”
Audrey curled her lips and said, “Do you think everyone wants to flaunt their wealth like you? Shame
on you to show off your small salary.”
While they were talking, the waiter came over with a bottle of wine and asked in a low voice, “Sir,
because the wine is expensive, although it has been opened, you need to pay before drinking it!
Gerald looked at Brian with a smile, then handed the Diamond Card to the waiter and said, “Okay!”
Then, Gerald took out his phone and showed his PayPal’s QR code, saying, “40 thousand dollars.
Transfer it to me.”
Brian’s expression kept changing
Gerald had indeed taken out his card. Audrey hadn’t given it to him.
Brian was extremely regretful.
Brian hadn’t expected Gerald would actually set him up like this.
Tara and Sophia both looked at Brian. He gritted his teeth and could only say, “My money is all in
investment programs. I don’t have so much cash!”
Gerald was amused. He looked at Brian with a smile and asked, “After hearing what you said, I thought
you had tens of millions of dollars!”
“1. Brian’s face turned livid.
Now it was his turn to feel humiliated. Brian wanted to find a hole to hide in!
“How about this?” Gerald looked at him with a smile. “You suggested we buy the red wine, and I agreed
we two would split the bill. Now, the red wine has been opened. You have to give me the money. How
much money do you have now? Just transfer it to me. As for the rest of the money. write an IOU. Not
one cent less!’
Brian sat there and did not dare to speak at all. He obediently transferred 8,000 dollars to Gerald and
then wrote an IOU of 32 thousand dollars.
Soon, the waiter paid the bill with Gerald’s card and brought it over with the red wine. He served a
glass to each of them.
Audrey raised her glass with a smile and said, “For our reunion!”
Since things had happened, Brian had no choice but to pick up his glass and take a sip!
However, he did not feel the wine was tasty. It was very bitter, so bitter that he could not speak!
40 thousand dollars! It meant he had worked his ass off for half a year for nothing
He failed to act tough, and instead, he was trapped.
Gerald was secretly happy to see him like this.
After a while, Brian really felt that it was a little embarrassing to stay here. He pretended to answer
a phone call and then said the company needed his attention before leaving.
After a short moment of shock, Sophia and Tara continued to chat with Audrey However, they sized
Gerald up curiously, as if curious about who Gerald really was.
After lunch, the two had to go to work in the afternoon, so they left.
When they left, Audrey said with a smile, “Gerald, you are good at this. You don’t know how happy I felt
when I saw Brian like that just now
“He wants to take on airs in front of me,” Gerald sighed. “I don’t know what else to do!”
At this point, he smiled and continued, “Oh, you just said you were willing to give me money to spend
Why don’t you give me 40 thousand dollars?”
“Bah.” Audrey pursed her lips and then muttered. “But you did spend this money for me. Give me your
bank account, and I will transfer it to you!”
Looking at her serious face, Gerald froze. Then he raised his head and rubbed hers affectionately.
saying, “I was just teasing you.”
Audrey also froze. Then, her face turned red. She quickly broke free of Gerald’s hand and ran to the
side. She said, “Don’t paw me!”
Gerald rubbed his nose awkwardly and said with a smile, “Alright, what do you want to.

Halfway through his words, a sports car suddenly stopped at the side of the restaurant. Two people
walked down from the sports car
One of them was actually Drake! The other was a beautiful woman. She looked like an Internet.
influencer Her figure was hot.
After getting off the car, she naturally held Drake’s arm and leaned on him.
Drake didn’t look happy. His face was sour
“Darling, don’t be angry At worst, you can go to other companies. The people of Goldsun Group failed
to recognize a great person.” Gerald heard the sweet voice of the woman.
Drake snorted, “I will ask Jolie’s mother to discuss it with Mason again. No matter what, we have
to get Universe Group’s investment.”
“Okay,” the woman smiled. “Jolie probably doesn’t know about our relationship yet!”
“I don’t know. When I get the investment, I will break up with her “Drake pinched the woman’s waist
and walked to the restaurant holding her in his arms.
Gerald frowned. He did not think too much about it. He quickly took out his phone and took several
photos from the side of the two people.
