The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1392

Phoebe’s expression changed. “What are you saying? He’s my friend.” Richard shook his head. Clearly, he did not accept it and insisted that Alex had to leave. Cheryl grunted. “What kind of dilapidated place is this? There’s so many rules. We don’t bother to be here. Alex, Phoebe, let’s go somewhere else and have dinner.” When Joel saw that they really turned around to leave, he immediately said, “Richard, don’t be rude. Since Phoebe has already said that he’s a friend, then he’s a friend. Apologize to our bodyguard friend.” In response to Joel’s request, Richard was very obedient. He immediately apologized to Alex. “I apologize, Mr. Bodyguard. It turns out that you’re really Miss Larsen’s friend. Please forgive me for being so blind to the fact. Why don’t we go into the VIP room first? Young Master Quarters has prepared a sumptuous dinner.” “Forget it I don’t feel like dining in here suddenly. Let’s go somewhere else. I’m not used to the food served in this Blue Heavens Club!” Phoebe said coldly right away. Alex was her crush. How could she be happy when Richard treated him like that? “No, Cousin! I’m starving already. We don’t know how long we are going to wait if we change to another location!” Judy said immediately as she pulled Phoebe while acting cute and pretending to be pitiful. In the end, Alex said, “Since we’re already here, let’s make do with the dinner!” Such words made Richard infuriated. What did he mean by ‘let’s make do with the dinner’? The chefs here were all scouted from the high price of Michelin. Each of them was master level and the yearly salary was more than ten million dollars. ‘I’m afraid that insignificant people like you have even seen those dishes before.’ Surprisingly, Phoebe nodded her head and said, “You’re right. Anyone outside who cooks the dishes is no match for you, the real chef.” After that, Richard was utterly speechless. On the other hand, Alex only agreed to dine here with Joel mainly because he heard from Judy previously that Second Young Master Quarters and the Larsens’ patriarch had agreed on this marriage. Now that Joel had made his appearance here and even asked Judy to be the mediator to treat Phoebe to a meal, he should have some moves. Alex wanted to know Joel’s plans, so that he could handle them with a targeted manner. The dishes prepared by Joel were indeed sumptuous. The dishes on the entire table cost at least three hundred thousand dollars. There were king crabs, big lobsters, three headed abalone and many more, full on the table. Indeed, Alex was hungry as well. He sat down straightaway without hesitation or even before Joel’s greeting. He picked up the utensils and devoured the food as if nobody else was around. He looked like he had not been eating for hundreds of years. Joel, Richard and his few other friends’ faces turned pale when they saw him. On the contrary, Alex still enthusiastically took food for Cheryl and Phoebe and even helped them to peel the shrimps. “Come, this is nice, and this too. I didn’t expect that the chefs here are half as good as me and that’s quite good already.” “This lamb shank tastes good too. Rockefeller brat, try it too!” Phoebe picked up the lamb shank and shoved it into his mouth personally. On the other side, Cheryl used her utensils to pick up a fresh oyster and feed it to Alex as well. “This is good for men. You should eat more!” “Let’s eat! Let’s eat together! Eh, why aren’t you guys eating?” How could Joel and the others still have an appetite to eat? They were full from all the lovey-dovey acts. Fifteen minutes later, Alex touched his stomach and said, “I’m full already. Cheryl, Phoebe, are you full yet? We should get going if we’re done eating. Oh, thanks for the meal, Mr. Quarters. You’re such a nice person for treating us to a meal, yet you didn’t even eat anything yourself.” ‘Good my *ss!’ He just wanted to explode on the spot now. “Hold up!” Joel took a deep breath. Then, he took out a cheque. After writing an amount on it with a swoosh, he placed the cheque on the round turntable and spun it in front of Alex. Alex looked at him. “What are you trying to imply, Mr. Quarters? Not only did you treat us to a meal, but you’re even giving me an allowance?” Joel replied, “If you think it’s an allowance, then it is! Phoebe is a fiancé of mine, Joel Quarters, It must be tough to protect my fiancé. Here’s one million dollars as a token of appreciation. You can take the money and leave. From now onwards, I’ll be responsible for my fiancé’s safety.”
