Inside Lume Hotel.
Qahira and the rest walked into the restaurant majestically while Laura dragged Freya along.
As a result, even Freya did not notice that Connor had been left behind. Even if she did, she would not have the chance to call for him.
“Freya, I don’t want to criticize you, but I know that you’re not young anymore, and it’s normal for you to want a boyfriend. But you can’t just find a random cat or dog to be your boyfriend, right? What do you think is going on with that Connor you’re looking for?” Sandra said to Freya meaningfully.
When Freya heard these words, she was instantly unhappy. She said with a straight face, “Whoever 1 want to be with is my own business. 1 don’t need you to judge me! If you really have the time, you should discipline Qahira…”
After saying this, Freya shook off Laura’s hand and turned around to look for Connor.
Although Freya had some misunderstandings with Connor before, she felt that he was not as bad as she had imagined. Moreover, she had also started to accept his existence slowly, so when she heard others say bad things about Connor, Freya was naturally unhappy.
“You… Look at this child. Why is she still throwing a tantrum at me? Although what I said just now was a little harsh, wasn’t it out of kindness?” Sandra said awkwardly after Freya left.
“Big Sis, Freya is with Connor not because she really likes him, but rather because she was forced to! There are many things that you don’t know,” Sean replied helplessly.
“Forced?”
When Sandra heard this, she couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment. Then, she frowned and asked, “Why was she forced to do this?”
“Forget it, I won’t be able to explain it to you in a short time. I’ll tell you when I have time in the future!” Sean waved his hand helplessly and walked into the private room.
At this moment, the waiters in the private room had already served all the dishes. There were all kinds of delicacies sitting on the table. Every dish looked, smelled, and tasted delicious. Just looking at it would make people drool.
Sean often came here to eat, so he could tell at a glance that the dishes on this table cost at least a hundred thousand dollars, not including drinks.
“Shane, we’re just here for a simple meal. Did you have to make it like this? This is too excessive!” Sean asked Shane softly.
“That’s right, Shane, you’re too extravagant and wasteful. You can’t do this next time!” Sandra agreed. Although she said that, she was actually overjoyed; After all, Shane did this for her sake.
Shane’s annual salary was 10 million dollars, but this meal would cost him nearly 200,000 dollars!
And what was 200,000 dollars? That amount of money could buy a low-end SUV or pay the down payment for a third- or fourth-tier house.
However, Shane had spent nearly 200,000 dollars just to treat everyone to a meal. Even if he had that much money, he would still feel a little heartache.
He then remembered that this was the first time treating Qahira’s parents to a meal. Freya’s parents were also present.
Therefore, for the sake of Qahira and his own image, he could only grit his teeth and book this private room.
Shane and Qahira had known each other for more than half a year, but their relationship had not progressed at all. They were still at the stage of holding hands and kissing.
Every time Shane suggested going out to get a room, Qahira would think of all sorts of ways to reject him. Therefore, in order to successfully get her, he felt that it was worth spending so much money today.
At this moment, Qahira was also very happy; her fiance, Shane, was so outstanding that he could beat up Freya’s fiance, Connor.
This was also the first time she’d managed to successfully bully Freya, so her impression of Shane began to soar.
On the other side, after Freya left the restaurant, she ran straight to the door to look for Connor. However, when she arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, she didn’t see him anywhere. Freya began to grow anxious.
She was worried that her parents ‘attitude and Sandra’s words had angered Connor and made him leave.
However, what she didn’t know was that Connor didn’t leave the restaurant. Instead, it was because he met an acquaintance in the restaurant.
In the corner of a corridor of Lume, a middle-aged man was talking to Connor with a smile on his face. This man was none other than the general manager of Immortal Lake Manor, Titus.
Titus was not only the general manager of Immortal Lake Manor, but also the general manager of Lume.
To put it simply, Connor himself did not know that the restaurant they were in was actually his property as well. Titus was here to inspect the work today, but he didn’t expect to meet Connor here.
“Young Master McDonald, why didn’t you give me a call beforehand? 1 would’ve gotten someone to come over and receive you…”
Titus said to Connor with a smile.
“I came here with my fiancee this time, but I didn’t know that this restaurant actually belongs to our company!” Connor replied indifferently.
“So that’s how it is!” Titus nodded thoughtfully.
“By the way, my fiancee doesn’t know my true identity yet, nor do 1 want her to know. Do you understand what 1 mean?” Connor whispered to Titus.
Titus was stunned for a moment and asked, “You don’t want her to know your identity? What does this mean?”
Connor looked at Titus’s expression, speechless. He opened his mouth and was about to explain when he suddenly realized that his phone was ringing.
He took out his phone and saw that it was a call from Freya.
“My fiancee’s calling me, so I can’t talk to you anymore. Anyway, remember not to let these people know that I’m the owner of this restaurant, understand?”
Connor was worried that if he continued to chat with Titus, Freya would see him and things would get troublesome. Hence, after giving a simple reminder, he left in a hurry.
Titus stood there with a puzzled expression. He couldn’t understand what Connor meant.
After Connor parted ways with Titus, he went straight to the entrance of the restaurant to find Freya.
“Connor, where did you go? I was worried that you had left!” Freya called out excitedly when she saw Connor.
“I just went to the toilet!” Connor replied with a smile.
“Oh, it’s good that you didn’t leave. Let’s go to the private room quickly. The dishes are already served!” Freya dragged Connor along and walked towards the private room.
However, when Connor and Freya returned to the private room, they found a very awkward problem.
There was one less seat in the private room!
