My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Darien was stunned as he glanced down at the bill in his hand.

Over $300,000...

He blinked, staring at Ellie in disbelief. "What is this supposed to mean?"

Ellie didn't respond and instead turned her gaze to the manager.

The manager immediately spoke up. "Mr. Britt, you've spent $357,000 tonight. Will that be credit or cash?"

Darien blinked again, looking back at Ellie.

Ellie smiled. "Mr. Britt…"

She dragged out his name in a mocking tone, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

Her cold gaze bore into him as she chuckled softly. "The manager is waiting for you to settle the bill. Why are you looking at me?"

Darien swallowed hard, his brow furrowing.

"Ellie, stop playing games."

Ellie crossed her arms. "You can't pay the bill, but I'm the one playing games?"

Meanwhile, Mollie was completely confused.

Her two friends were even more bewildered, speaking up in unison.
