Lauren panicked when she heard the waiter’s words. She didn’t expect the waiter to be so indifferent to her identity.
So she quickly tried to explain. “It’s not that we don’t want to pay for our drinks. What I mean is, doesn’t this Churchill Bar belong to the Greene King Bar Group? I’m the biggest shareholder of the Greene King Bar
Group. As the boss, I have the right to have a few bottles of wine from the bar, right?”
Lauren spoke in a very soft and gentle voice.
Seeing this, Fanny commented. “Lauren, you’re the boss. Why are you being so humble to a waiter?”
She then shouted at the waiter, “Hey! This is your boss! This bar belongs to her! We can order whatever we want!”
The waiter laughed out loud. “Are the four of you trying to run a scam? You wish to drink for free? If you want to drink for free, please look for one of the customers in the bar. Some of them might be willing to treat
you to drinks, but you girls will have to spend the night with them.
“However, don’t even think about having a fine wine worth thousands of pounds. Women like you are cheap. A night with you is probably only worth a few dozen pounds.”
The waiter’s sarcastic insults incensed Fanny and the group!
Fanny and Zara slammed the table in anger. “What did you say?! Who do you think you are talking to? Apologize to us immediately!”
The waiter continued to wipe the glass as he pointed at Lauren with a smile. “This lady was the one who lied first. The Churchill Bar has nothing to do with the Greene King Bar Group.
“The owner of our bar is Michael McDonald.”
Lauren clenched her fists. She was very upset. If it weren’t for her, she and her friends wouldn’t have been humiliated like this. However, Lauren was puzzled by the waiter’s words. Didn’t this bar belong to the company
under her control?
Jordan clearly said that all the bars in England were under the Greene King Bar Group.
Fanny suddenly said, “Michael McDonald? Isn’t he the president of Enco Corporation?”
The waiter confirmed. “That’s right. Do you know him? He’s the most outstanding young tycoon in England! He’s not even 30 yet, but he’s already worth billions of pounds!”
Zara suddenly said, “Why does this name sound a little familiar?”
Fanny said, “Michael McDonald is my husband!”
Realization dawned upon Beatrice. “Oh, right. Your husband’s name is McDonald! So this bar belongs to your husband!”
Lauren was stunned as well. She had been touted as the Queen of English bars and promised to bring her schoolmates here for a drink. But now, it turned out that Fanny was the bar owner instead.
Taking out her cell phone, Fanny immediately made a call.
“Hey, honey, let me ask you. Did you buy the Churchill Bar? What? You really bought it? Why didn’t you tell me? I’m at the Churchill Bar now, and the waiter here insulted me and my friends. I want you to fire him
immediately!”
After hanging up, Fanny smiled at the three girls. “Oh my god, this bar really belongs to my family. Sigh, it’s all my husband’s fault for being too rich. He likes to buy bars and wineries for no reason. | didn’t even know.”
Lauren and the other two looked at Fanny’s expression. Was she putting on an act on purpose?
What a coincidence. She was the one who chose the bar for tonight and it just happened to have been bought by her husband? And she was claiming that she didn’t know?
Beatrice spoke up. “Fanny, are you deliberately trying to embarrass your old schoolmate?”
Beatrice could tell at a glance that Fanny was putting on an act. She was trying to humiliate Lauren and expose her husband.
Beatrice and Zara had no qualms seeing Jordan exposed for fraud. However, they did not wish to see Lauren humiliated like this.
Apart from their sisterly friendship, Beatrice and Zara lived in the same state as the powerful Howard family. It would be unwise for them to mock Lauren. Therefore, Beatrice decided to speak up for Lauren.
Fanny hurriedly defended herself. “How can you say that? I am not! Lauren, don’t misunderstand. I really didn’t know that this bar belonged to my family. Really!”
Lauren smiled awkwardly. “Alright, there’s no need to explain. I believe you.”
Lauren knew that Fanny had been very jealous of her since their university days. Even back then, Fanny was jealous that Lauren was prettier and had a better family background.
At this moment, the waiter suddenly received a call. He immediately apologized to Fanny.
“I’m sorry, Mrs. McDonald. I apologize for what I said earlier! 1 hope you can be magnanimous and forgive me this time. Don’t fire me!”
Fanny snorted. “You insulted my dearest friends and you still wish to work in my place? What are you thinking! Get lost now!”
Fanny was merciless.
The waiter bowed respectfully and apologized to the four of them. “I am very sorry. Ladies, I’ve disrupted your night out. I’ll take my leave now.”
With that, the waiter left.
Zara praised happily, “Fanny, you’re so domineering! Whoever insulted us should be gotten rid of!”
Beatrice added. “It’s a good thing that you turned out to be the boss. Otherwise, we would have been helpless against the waiter’s insults.”
Lauren also thanked Fanny. “Thank you, Fanny.”
She had to struggle to say those words.
She should have been the boss here. If anything happened, she should have been the one solving the problem for her friends. But now, Fanny had snatched away all her glory.
Fanny was very happy and gestured to another waitress. “Open four bottles of the most expensive red wine here immediately!”
“Yes, Boss.”
The waitress was very obedient and prepared red wine glasses for the four of them.
However, Lauren rejected it. “Sorry, I won’t be drinking. Give me something non-alcoholic.”
“Huh? Why aren’t you drinking?” asked Fanny.
Lauren explained. “I still have to meet Jordan’s family later. It’s really rude to smell of alcohol on our first meeting.”
Fanny said helplessly, “Lauren, why do you still take that liar husband of yours seriously? You still want to see his parents? He’s a liar. What’s the point of meeting his parents?”
Zara added, “That’s right, Lauren. Didn’t your husband say that the Churchill Bar belongs to the Steeles? He also said that all the bars in England belong to their family. On your wedding day, he generously gave them all
to you. But now, we realized that it’s not true!”
Beatrice also piped in. “I also don’t think Jordan is rich. An old Bentley was sent to pick him up. I wonder if it’s secondhand or rented. It can’t compare to your new car.”
Lauren felt very uncomfortable being doubted and mocked by her good friends!
Was Jordan… really a liar?.
