Chapter 38 Your Fiancee
Upon seeing Mark's departure, the crowd was deeply puzzled.
However, they felt that individuals like James wouldn't be able to change the situation even if they asked for help.
Jennifer and Michael, still disdainful, continued to glare at James as if waiting for Mr. Jackson to return and deal with him.
"Nancy, let's just leave it at that for today. Your goals have been achieved, so why not let that person go?" The professional woman hesitated for a moment before speaking softly to the petite beauty.
"No, I need to teach James a lesson today. You have no idea how despicable this guy is; he intentionally took advantage of me yesterday!" the petite beauty said angrily with a pout.
Upon hearing this, the professional woman could only sigh helplessly and refrain from interfering.
Meanwhile, Michael's attention was focused on the two ladies, both the petite beauty and the professional woman. They were undoubtedly rare beauties in the crowd, far surpassing what Jennifer could compare to.
Michael was with Jennifer just for the thrill of it, not out of love.
Hesitating for a moment, Michael walked over to the petite beauty with a flattering expression on his face.
Seeing Michael flirting with another girl right in front of her, Jennifer's face flushed with embarrassment, unable to say anything but stand there awkwardly.
Upon seeing this scene, James couldn't help but smile.
"Why are you laughing?"
Jennifer exclaimed unhappily when she noticed James smiling.
James glanced at Jennifer, said nothing more, and just shook his head gently.
"Miss, what's your name?" Michael asked the petite beauty with a cheerful smile.
"Who are you? Stay away from me!" The petite beauty showed no courtesy to Michael, her tone filled with disdain despite his past help. She felt that anyone who tried to flirt with her in front of their girlfriend couldn't be a good person, hence her unfriendly tone.
Embarrassed, Michael chuckled awkwardly and turned to face Jennifer.
Just then, Mark returned with his phone, looking nervous and sweating profusely, as if he had just come out of a sauna.
Seeing Mark in such a state, the crowd looked confused.
They couldn't understand why Mark was so upset after just taking a call.
However, what they didn't know was that Moonlight Garden was actually a property under the Golden Peak Group, which meant that James was the chairman of Moonlight Garden!
Mark never imagined that he had just unintentionally offended the chairman of the restaurant just now!
Now, Mark deeply regretted what he had done.
"Mr. Smith, I'm terribly sorry. I've just clarified everything just now. You are indeed an honored guest of our Moonlight Garden. I apologize for my behavior towards you earlier!" Mark approached James and spoke respectfully.
Upon seeing Mark's humble demeanor, the onlookers were stunned in disbelief, their faces expressing extreme shock.
No one could have imagined that his attitude could change so drastically just by answering a phone call.
Charles had specifically instructed Mark not to reveal James' identity, which was why Mark spoke to James in such a manner. Otherwise, he felt like kneeling down and bowing to James at that moment!
Just a small restaurant manager like him, actually siding with an outsider to attack the chairman and try to drive him out of the restaurant-truly seeking death!
Observing this spectacle, the petite beauty of Michael, Jennifer and others were stunned, their eyes showing deep astonishment.
"Mr. Jackson, what are you saying? There's no way he's a guest of your restaurant." The petite beauty stepped forward, frowning and shouting.
"Can I leave now?" James asked Mark indifferently.
"You may leave!" Mark ignored the petite beauty and nodded respectfully at James.
James retrieved his phone from Mark's hand and left slowly under the gaze of the puzzled crowd.
Jennifer and Michael watched James's departure in utter bewilderment.
"Mr. Jackson, what's going on? You can't just let him go," the petite beauty shouted irritably at Mr. Jackson.
"Miss Hall, today was all a misunderstanding. The gentleman just now is indeed a guest of honor in our Moonlight Garden, and he's a guest in the Number One VIP room!" Mr. Jackson wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained with a sense of helplessness.
"The Number One VIP room!"
Upon hearing Mr. Jackson's words, both the petite beauty and the professional woman were stunned.
"Are you sure? We are the guests of the VIP room Number One. James must be lying. Mr. Jackson, hurry and catch him!" the petite beauty exclaimed passionately.
"Miss Hall, I'm not mistaken. He is the guest of the Number One VIP room, which is registered at our reception. That room has been personally reserved by James!" Mr. Jackson spoke with a furrowed brow.
"This is impossible; you must be mistaken. That room was obviously reserved by my cousin; how could it be James'?" As the petite beauty spoke, she turned to face the professional woman.
"Miss Hall, if you don't believe me, you can come with me to the front desk and check the records!" Mr. Jackson, not wanting to continue the conversation with the petite beauty, explained with a resigned expression.
"I don't need to check; that room wasn't reserved by me. It was reserved by my fiancee!" At that moment, the professional woman blushed shyly and said softly.
"What did you say?" The petite beauty's eyes widened in an instant, her expression filled with shock.
Upon hearing the professional woman's revelation, the petite beauty couldn't help but cover her mouth in disbelief and let out a gasp.
"That's impossible," the professional woman's eyes showed a hint of helplessness.
Although she had never met her fiancee, the Hall Family was a prestigious family in Lumina City.
As the only daughter of the Hall Family, she couldn't possibly marry someone like James even if she wanted to. It should be a nobleman from one of the prominent families in Lumina City!
"Let's go, let's go find James now and see what's going on!" The petite beauty hesitated for a moment, then pulled the professional woman toward the Number One VIP room.
