Chapter 251 Remember to Pay âHow dare you scold me?â
Aylin glanced sideways. âI didnât say who it was. You like to take it personally. It seems that you know it too.â
Haleighâs chest heaved violently, and her face turned pale.
She couldnât speak for a long time, That ex-wife had a way with words, and she was not an easy person to deal with.
Jacquelyn narrowed her eyes slightly. It was time for her to make a move.
âMs. Aylin, please donât judge a person by your own standards,â she said with a faint smile. She looked elegant, but her eyes were filled with disdain.
Aylin was wearing a gown like a waitress.
Therefore, Jacquelyn naturally regarded Aylin as the head waiter of the restaurant. âI can understand that with your identity and knowledge, you probably canât imagine our life. In fact, we donât care much about the price. If itâs not that weâre afraid of wasting the food, itâs not a big deal to order all of your dishes.â
What she really meant was that a country bumpkin like Aylin had never seen the life of the upper class, so she should not interfere.
She sounded gentle and polite, but she was actually being sarcastic.
Only then did Aylin notice Jacquelynâs meaning behind her words and she raised her eyebrows slightly.
It had been a long time since anyone dared to provoke her in such a harsh way, and it was still the kind of sarcastic tone she hated the most.
âWho are you?â
Aylin looked indifferent.
How dare a head waiter be so arrogant!
Jacquelyn tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, inadvertently revealing the Louis Vuitton high-set bracelet on her wrist. âMy father is the president of Nirvana Filmworks. My name is Jacquelyn.â
Haleigh interrupted proudly, âSheâs still my future daughter-in-law!â
Future daughter-in-law?
Aylin snorted in her heart. It turned out that Jacquelyn had been hooked up with Gavyn. No wonder why she was full of pride.
âYou know, Gavyn told me about you.â
Jacquelyn covered her mouth and smiled as if Gavyn had said something private to her. She stretched out her hand and said, âThank you for taking care of Gavyn for me before.â
Aylin had no intention to reach her hand at all.
She could tell at first glance that Jacquelyn was a pretentious woman, but her rank and status were higher than Lailaâs.
She was in a bad mood and didnât want to bother to deal with Jacquelyn.
âI donât shake hands with outsiders.â
Jacquelyn was not displeased at all when she was rejected. She withdrew her hand with a smile. âActually, I have some in common with you. We have a mutual friend. Laila and I were good friends in middle school.â
Hearing Laila being called a âgood friendâ made Aylin extremely disgusted.
âOh.â
She glanced at Jacquelyn and smiled. âItâs normal. Birds of a feather flock together.â
Jacquelynâs smile froze.
She hated Aylinâs beautiful face, and now she hated her even more for the way she looked down on others and didnât care about anything.
Initially, she wanted to see Aylin become furious like a crazy shrew.
However, no matter what she did, she was always refuted by the opposite side, and she couldnât find a way out.
Ever since Aylin got divorced, Haleigh was not in her favor. At this moment, Haleigh was afraid that her new daughter-in-law would also be rebuked, so she hurriedly helped.
âJacq, ignore her. Donât lose your appetite because of her.â
She then continued, âIsnât there still VIP treatment here? I remember that Joe personally served you food last time. A cheap woman wouldnât understand this kind of atmosphere.â
Haleigh winked at Jacquelyn, trying to brag intensely that her face looked calm.
Jacquelyn received Haleighâs signal. Although she felt that Haleigh was exaggerating, she must not look timid in front of Aylin, so she nodded with a smile.
Haleigh looked at Aylin insolently. âNot everyone can have the treatment of being served by the chef himself. Some people may not even have a spinach in their life.â
Joe?
A mocking smile appeared on Aylinâs face. The waitress also pursed her lips and forced herself to hold back her laughter.
Those two customers look like clowns!
It had been a long time since Aylin had seen such stupid and tacky people. If they were a spendthrift, then she must do something for the restaurantâs performance.
âJoe will serve the dishes himself. I guess those dishes are not up to your standards.â
Aylin took the menu and pointed at a few of them. âThese are the ones worthy of you, but I donât know if you can afford it.â
Haleigh was short of money, but Jacquelyn was not.
How dare a country bumpkin provoke me!
âThereâs nothing I canât afford here!â
In order to aggravate Aylin, she didnât even look at the menu and said arrogantly, âJust the few you pointed out, order them all for me. Iâll show you what a real upper-class person is. Of course, you can also sit here with us and try it. Iâve always been a very kind person.â
Jacquelyn cast a cold gaze at Aylin.
She lifted her chin slightly, wanting to see Aylinâs envious and surprised expression.
However, Aylin just reached out her hair and tucked it behind her ear, and smiled faintly. âNo, as long as you donât think itâs costly.
Jacquelyn frowned when she heard that.
Who does she think I am?
Aylin didnât seem to notice Jacquelynâs dissatisfaction. In other words, Aylin didnât seem to care about her at all. âWeâll pay first before we eat.â
Jacquelyn immediately took out the card from her bag and slapped it hard on the table.
âPlease, go ahead.â
Haleigh looked at Jacquelyn with a satisfied expression. She thought, âAst expected of the daughter-in-law Iâve picked carefully.
Sheâs so nice to me!â
She raised her chin slightly and waited to see Aylinâs surprised expression later.
Aylin raised her eyebrows and looked at the young girl..
âGo, get the POS machine.â
When the waitress saw her wink, she immediately understood and shouted, âOkay, boss!â
Boss?
Jacquelynâs hand, which was holding a glass of water, froze as she exchanged glances with Haleigh.
âYou... Youâre the owner of Deli Restaurant!â Haleigh opened her mouth wide in surprise and looked up and down at Aylin in disbelief.
Aylin didnât bother to pay attention to her at all.
Just then, a waitress passed by and saw Aylin. She hurriedly nodded and greeted, âHello, boss.â
Aylin smiled lightly and nodded at her.
Jacquelynâs elegant expression cracked, and Haleighâs jaw nearly dropped.
Aylin Koch was actually the owner of the hottest American cuisine in New York.
Thinking of how she had boasted and mocked Aylin for not eating spinach before, Haleigh felt a little embarrassed.
The waitress moved quickly and brought over the card machine and the bill.
Jacquelynâs face turned pale.
She was starting to regret her deeds.
This woman was the owner of Deli Restaurant and she probably would cheat her in various ways, but she often went to high-end restaurants, so those dishes shouldnât be expensive.
Jacquelyn comforted herself while accepting the bill.
The waiter smiled. âMadam, your bill.â
Jacquelyn tried her best to maintain her expression as she straightened her back and took the bill as calmly as possible.
Although she had made a prediction in her mind, she was still dumbfounded when she saw the bill-45,000 dollars
