Chapter 385 Overpowering You
Not only Gabriella and Tomek were dumbfounded by the scene before them, but Vivian too was quite taken aback. She never expected that William would really reserve Crystal Restaurant for her. Her heart was filled with both gratitude and astonishment.
"Vivian, let's go inside!" William's lips curled slightly, and then he whispered a few words to the manager before leading Vivian in.
Gabriella and Tomek wanted to follow suit to confirm if this was real, but the manager stopped them.
"Sorry, sir, we don't serve outsiders here!"
"What did you say? This poor guy can go in, but not me?" Tomek was furious.
"Sorry, Mr. Brown holds a prestigious status that you can't compare to. If you don't leave now, we'll forcibly remove you." The manager waved his hand and two security guards approached, ready to remove them.
"Prestigious status?" Gabriella muttered to herself in utter disbelief. She never expected Vivian to outshine her even in finding a boyfriend. It left her feeling overwhelmingly resentful and displeased.
Looking at Tomek, she now saw him as nothing but a waste, causing her great embarrassment today.
Eventually, Gabriella and Tomek reluctantly left under the escort of the security guards.
Inside the restaurant, Vivian admired the luxurious and dazzling surroundings, feeling a surreal sense of fantasy.
"William, are we really going to have lunch here today?" Vivian had never been to such a lavish couple's restaurant before, not even a regular one.
"Of course, you're my assistant, and I should treat you well!"
Saying that, William walked to a luxurious table and sat down. Then he beckoned to Vivian, signaling her to sit as well.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Vivian sat across from William. As soon as she sat down, music started playing. It was a live violin performance, playing a romantic tune called "Dreaming". The atmosphere became even more magical.
Soon, waiters brought out delicious dishes: Bolognese pasta, red wine steak, mushroom soup, Wellington steak...
One after another, these delightful and flavorful dishes were placed in front of William and Vivian, each with a poetic name.
"William, is this place only for couples?" Even if Vivian remained aloof and seemingly unaffected, she couldn't help but notice something different.
"It seems so! This is also my first time here." William didn't think much about it, and instead focused on enjoying the meal.
"Come on, it's been a while since we've had so much delicious food."
Vivian originally had some reservations, but seeing how much William enjoyed his meal, she couldn't help but start eating too. However, her eating manner was clearly more elegant, unlike William who ate like there was no tomorrow.
After they finished eating and drinking, Vivian suddenly put down her cutlery and thanked William.
"William, thank you."
"No need to thank me. Remember, you're my assistant, and no one will be able to bully you in the future," William said with a determined look in his eyes after taking a sip of red wine.
Looking at William's determined gaze, Vivian suddenly realized that working with him wasn't so bad after all.
Previously, Vivian was dissatisfied when her position as the chairman's assistant was changed to a personal assistant. But after this incident, Vivian truly acknowledged William for the first time and decided to take her job seriously.
After leaving Crystal Restaurant, Vivian had just sat in the car when William threw a tight-fitting pencil skirt at her, which he thought was very suitable for her.
"Vivian, I bought this skirt. Change into it in the car! When we go to the club later, follow my lead."
"Okay!" Vivian nodded and immediately changed into the skirt inside the car.
William stood outside the car, waiting for her. When Vivian came out in the changed outfit, there was an instant sense of admiration.
There was a touch of maturity and allure, less of the stereotypical image of a city white-collar worker but more of a mature woman's charm.
Compared to Michelle's gentle and virtuous demeanor, and Sophia's elegant temperament, Vivian completely possessed the charm of a mature woman.
"William, is this outfit okay? I feel a little uncomfortable in this tight-fitting skirt," Vivian said, still not used to wearing such a form-fitting pencil skirt.
"It's absolutely perfect. Right now, you exude such femininity that any man would be enchanted by you," William praised with a smile.
"Really? Have I enchanted you?" As soon as the words left her mouth, Vivian startled herself. She didn't know why she said that and was about to explain, but William interrupted her.
"I am also a man, what do you think?" William smirked, then got into the car and turned to Vivian, who was still stunned.
"Get in."
"Oh?! Okay." Vivian snapped out of it and sat in the driver's seat, pressing the accelerator.
Their destination was a luxurious high-end club in Canada, where only influential people gathered. There were also some female students and models working part-time here to earn extra money. It could be said that this place was where the wealthy indulged in extreme luxury.
When William and Vivian arrived, it was still early, so there weren't many people here yet. However, they were heading to the most upscale part of the club, reserved for the elite.
Ocean Guild's intelligence showed that Kevin is inside, but they did not mention the specific room number.
"William, it's still early, will Kevin be inside?" Vivian asked as she followed behind William.
"Well, he's been here for the past week, day and night. It's really decadent!" William couldn't help but sigh.
While speaking, William led Vivian inside.
Since it was still early in the afternoon, there were not many people in the club. However, there were quite a few hostesses undergoing training. A waiter spotted William and hurried over to assist him.
"Sir, would you like to book a private room?"
"Which room is Kevin's?" William asked, taking out a thousand dollars from his pocket and handing it to the waiter.
"Sir, may I ask what the matter is regarding his room? I can inform him for you." The waiter was cautious and didn't want to simply take the money and do as told. After all, the Campbell family was the most prominent family in town, and it was not wise to offend them.
In case something unexpected happened, this waiter wouldn't even know how he died.
William didn't respond but took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to him.
"There are a hundred thousand dollars on this card. Take it and have fun. I just want to make friends with him, it won't cause you any trouble," William said calmly.
After receiving the bank card, the waiter's attitude changed immediately.
"He is in VIP room 308. Please don't tell others that I told you." The waiter said and left.
William nodded and led Vivian towards room 308 on the third floor.
A few minutes later, they arrived at VIP room 308, where two black-clad bodyguards stood guard.
"Halt, who are you?" One of the bodyguards stopped William's way.
These two bodyguards exuded a steady aura and were physically strong. The most crucial part was that they had guns at their waists, indicating that they were not ordinary bodyguards.
"Such a nuisance!" William frowned and swiftly knocked them both unconscious with a palm slap to each, without giving them a chance to react.
Vivian, who was following behind William, was astonished to see his formidable skills.
Although the purpose of this visit was to get acquainted with Kevin, it was necessary to demonstrate some strength to impress him. Otherwise, he might think that William came to join him.
