The First Heir

Martha glossed over the dishes on the menu only to find that the shark fin cost six thousand 6,000 yuan!

The Australian lobster cost 2,000 per entree!

Flipping to the page of the Lafite ‘82… 10,000?!

“This… Joel, this is too expensive.” Martha began to fret.

Smiling, Joel snapped his fingers to call upon a waiter and instructed, “This here is my Aunt Martha. Serve us all your recommendations and a bottle of Lafite, please. Oh, and start up a new VIP membership account as well.”

Hearing him, Martha was beyond elated. Joel was better than that good-for-nothing Philip Clarke in every way.

Not too long later, all the dishes were served. The waiter approached to courteously hand Joel the new VIP card.

“Aunt Martha, this here is actually my classmate’s restaurant. With this membership card, everything is 40% off.”

After handing the card to Martha, Joel added, “But of course, everything will be on my tab.”

Martha’s eyes shone with mirth and satisfaction as she accepted the VIP card. “Thank you so much. What a promising young fellow you are, Joel. God knows how blessed a life Wynnie would be having if she married you.”

Speaking of that, Joel smiled. “So, Aunt Martha, when is Wynnie divorcing Philip?”

Martha’s eyes turned into crescent moons at how interested Joel was in her daughter. She had her eyes set on this golden goose, and she was not going to let it go.

“Calm down, Joel. Why do you think your Aunt Martha came to find you today?”
