“Hmph!” Miru scoffed. “I would like to see how you do that. By the way, do you know where Henry is bringing us to dinner tonight? It’s the third floor of Cloud Nine! A piece of trash like you could never get into such a luxurious restaurant even if you work your entire life!”

Agnes’ eyes glimmered with excitement. “The third floor of Cloud Nine?! Only Golden members can make a booking at that place!”

Cloud Nine was one of the most famous restaurants in Lilyrose and only by spending above ten million on a single receipt, one would be eligible to apply for the Golden membership.

Master Quint was the only one in the entire family to have a Golden member card.

As for floors above the third, the required spending would be much higher.

Miru glanced at Kaze and scoffed, “Kaze, this is the difference between you and Henry. I have no idea what gives you the confidence to continue staying at Darcy’s side.”

“Miru, stop talking to this piece of trash. Darcy is here. Let’s go. We wouldn’t want Henry to wait for us!”

Agnes did not even spare a glance at Kaze as she dragged Darcy into Miru’s Land Rover.

As the car drove off and disappeared into the distant horizon, Kaze’s phone rang.

“Boss, Giovani has prepared a feast as a token of apology for offending you. It’s being held on the ninth floor of Cloud Nine, Emperor Hall. Do you want to…”

“Tell him to pick me up.”
