Chapter 886 Avery’s head started to hurt. “If you didn’t have it in the kitchen, you could have just told me that. Why did you have to go to him about it?”
“I’m so sorry! I thought that you were very close to Mr. Foster as you came here with him before. Your friend seemed upset, so I…” The manager said.
Avery interrupted him. “How much is the dish?”
“It’s been paid for by Mr. Foster,” the manager said with a smile, “You can transfer the money back to him if you don’t want to accept it. The price of this dish is 58888 dollars.” “???” Avery had known that this restaurant was famous for the red lobster and that it was more expensive compared to other restaurants, but she had not expected this to cost so much.
Seeing that she was stunned, the manager immediately explained, “This red lobster is different from the rest. It’s top tier and we haven’t caught a red lobster with such high quality for a really long time now.”
Avery took a deep breath and waved at him. “I get it.”
Once the manager left, Tammy said apologetically, “Let me pay for dinner! I didn’t think that the lobster would be this expensive because Jun and I came here before.”
“I said it’s my treat. Did you want the lobster so badly because of Jun?”
Tammy smiled awkwardly. “Not really. I’m just in a bad mood.”
“It’s alright. Let it all out.” Avery served her the lobster and said, “Dig in! I will spoil you even when you don’t have a man to take care of you.”
Tammy took a spoonful of lobster and said, “So are you reimbursing Elliot?”
“Let’s decide after we eat!” Avery knew that Elliot was in the restaurant as well and did not want to cause any drama. “Let’s avoid this restaurant when we hang out from now on. I wouldn’t have picked this place had I known that he was here too.”
Tammy watched as Avery brooded and she blurted out the truth, “I chose to come in on purpose because I saw his car parked outside. Aren’t you curious who he is here with? It’s not like he would be here alone!”
“Do you want the manager to take you to the private room and have a look?” Avery teased. “Nah, he has to come out eventually, right? Let’s just sit here anded wait.”
Inside the private room, Elliot glanced at his phone to check if Avery was transferring money to him, as the manager had just informed him that Avery would be paying him back for the redie lobster.
“Mr. Foster, was the lady the manager mentioned earlier Hayden’s mother, Avery Tate?” Elliot’s guest asked.
It was the person in charge of the Central University elite class. Elliot had invited him out to discuss Hayden. Not only did Elliot plan on impressing Layla with his actions, but Elliot also wanted to take good care of Hayden; even if he didn’t know or appreciate94 it.
As a father, he had to fulfill his responsibility.
“Yes. Have you met her before?” Elliot18 asked.
“Once. We spoke briefly when she first brought Hayden to the school. She is a busy woman. though, so I’m afraid she doesn’t remember me,” the man said, “Does Miss. Tate know about your investment in the elite class?”
“She is mad at me and doesn’t want to see me,” Elliot said honestly, “Don’t tell anyone about me funding your project. If Hayden finds out, he is probably going to quitd3 school.”
“Is your relationship with your son really that bad?”
“Yes. He is my son and I want him to have a better environment to study and grow in,” Elliot requested, “I hope that you can provide him with more support for hiscb studies.” “Of course. We will be sure to take good care of him,” the man said.
