Chapter 1923 A Discount

Maya calculated the price silently and kindly gave them a twenty percent discount. She told them the price before and after the discount. Hearing that, Nicholas seemed far from satisfied.

“You’re only giving a twenty percent discount? Shouldn’t you give at least a fifty percent discount? We’re family! Besides, we’ll be living under the same roof soon.”

Maya immediately calculated the price in her heart. I didn’t open the food plaza to make money, so the profit isn’t much. I’m not getting any profit by offering a twenty percent discount. A fifty percent discount will result in a loss. But Nicholas claims we’re a family, and Wilbur’s here. Should I agree so Wilbur won’t be embarrassed?

Nina let out a cough to remind her that if she were to agree to a fifty percent discount, Nicholas would then ask for a free meal. After all, they were family.

Maya was stunned. “Should I waive his bill?” She glanced at Wilbur to ask for his opinion. “Are you going to waive the bill every time they come?”

Maya lifted one finger. “Just this once. No more next time!”

“That might be your plan, but he might think differently. In the future, he might also bring his friends here and use the excuse of being your family so you’d waive the bill again,” Nina reminded her.

Maya turned at her shoulder to scrutinize Nicholas. Is he that shameless? Wilbur and I aren’t even married. No, we aren’t even engaged. The audacity of him to take advantage of me that often! Ugh, I shouldn’t set a precedent. Siblings settle accounts with each other. He is Wilbur’s half-brother, and they aren’t even close to each other.

“I can offer you a maximum of twenty percent discount as you’re Wilbur’s brother,” Maya insisted. Nicholas wasn’t satisfied with her answer.

“Wilbur, what do you think? Don’t you think she should give me at least fifty percent off?”

The corner of Wilbur’s mouth quirked up as he replied, “I think you should get your bones broken.”

“Right? You think a fifty percent discount is plausible, right?” Nicholas didn’t even pay attention to his brother’s words and assumed he had agreed to the discount.

“Are you deaf? He said you should get your bones broken! Crack!” Nina rolled her eyes. Nicholas was speechless. “Wilbur, you’re heartless,” he whined.

“Siblings aren’t for you to take advantage of!”

Nicholas had no retort for that. Meanwhile, Janice quipped, “Yes, he’s right. We should be thankful for the twenty percent discount. Let’s be grateful for what we have.”

“Hear that? Be grateful for what you have! You are worse than a woman,” Nina mocked.

Nicholas glared at Janice. “Why did you say that? I haggled the price with them to create an opportunity for you! I’m here to put up an act with you so they would think we’re a loving couple, not to be chided by you! Why are you siding with them? Did you forget our plan after seeing Wilbur?” he hissed.

Janice’s fists balled up. “I didn’t forget that. I know what to do.”

“Good. My patience and time are limited. You’d better get into it right now.”

They then pretended to be a loving couple and tasted the delicious desserts served. When Wilbur went to the restroom, Janice offered Nicholas a cake pop.

“Here, try this.”

Nicholas bit into it and proclaimed it was heavenly.

Janice told Nicholas to feed her. Obediently, the man took a piece of dessert and fed it to her. To others, they seemed to be madly in love with each other.

“Janice is really fickle-hearted, huh? Previously, she was adamant about getting engaged to Wilbur and claimed to love him. Now, she’s with Nicholas.”

“Isn’t this good? At least she won’t be annoying Wilbur anymore,” Maya said.
