"Krister covered his face and looked at the scene before him in total astonishment. This was completely beyond his wildest imagination.
This was all so very wrong. He had called Boss X to come and teach William a lesson, but now they hadit seemed like they were simply herecome to drink. He knew that these drinks were not cheap, and in the end, he would be the one paying the bill.
""Dylan, are you crazy? I told you to come here to teach William a lesson, not to drink!"" Krister shouted loudly from behind, but Dylan and the others paid no attention and just focused on the task of drinking.
Meanwhile,; Michelle, Lauren, Emily, and others rushed over when they heard the news. When they saw, seeing five unfamiliar men in the private room, t. They couldn't help but ask,.
""Who are these five people? Why are they drinking as soon as they came in?""
""We don't know them, but it seems Krister invited them. They’re , probably his friends."" William said casually, watching as he watched Dylan and the others enjoy thoese expensive drinks. He was feeling quite pleased.
""Thoese drinks require additional payment, and they are all premium drinksones."" Lauren's mouth dropped open, looking astonished.
""It's fine, it's not us who'swe’re not paying anyway. They can drink however as much as they want."" William's words clearly gained approval from Lauren and the others.
""Well then, let's have a taste too. We don't usually get a chance to drink these high-end wines, otherwise they’ will all be finished by them."" Emily said, joining in.
""I also wanted to have a drink too, since this isI don’t usually get to taste a fine wines like this that I don't usually get to taste.”
""Sure."" Michelle nodded in agreement. E, even she wanted to see Krister suffer a bit. After all, he had completely humiliated William before.
William decided not to drink as he had to drive.
Seeing When Krister saw everyone enjoying his money, heKrister felt both annoyed and embarrassed, and he directed all his anger towards William.
Late into the night, Dylan and the others had almost finished drinking. They had consumed over twenty bottles and had, truly goneing all out.
As for Lauren and her friends, they couldn't finish a single bottle. They merely had only opened them and took taken a few sips.
Later on, Tim returned with a girl, clearly drunk and stumbling.
""It's getting late, your family must be worried."" William noticed Michelle's flushed face and couldn't help but express his concern.
""Okay,"" Michelle nodded.
The rest of them were also getting drunk. Dylan and the others left, apologizing repeatedly to William before they departed.
William didn't pay much attention to them; he was more concerned about the hundred thousand dollars wasted on Krister.
And when it was time to settle the bill, the amount was astonishing. It was, over three million and two hundred thousand dollars. Krister's face turned ugly in an instant.
The BTY Club was already known for its high consumptionprices, and the liquor they had drunk drank was top-tier. In addition, the money Tim had spent on his date was also added to Krister's bill, which made it skyrocketing to an this extraordinary sum.
""MichelleL, lend me your ultra-gold card, Michelle,"" Krister requested with a stern facee., but Michelle playfully replied, ""Sorry, Krister, I don't know where I put my gold card.""
It was obvious that she didn't want to lend it to him, even though it could give him a 50% discount.
""Fine. You shameless couple Y, you’ will regret this, you shameless couple,"" Krister couldn't bear losing faceto be disrespected. HTonight, he had lost over three million dollars tonight and got had been physically slapped in the face without gaining anything, which only fueleding his anger.
Fortunately, Krister believed he still had a chance to turn the tables. The oil painting was his opportunity for a comeback, and he had 100% confidence in the painting he spent 38 million dollars on.
‘""William, I’ will make you pay back double at the upcoming art exhibition for the loss you’ have caused me tonight, William.’""
Today It was the weekend, and William could have slept in since he went had gone to bed late last night. However, he woke up early for one reason only.

Nevertheless, he didn't plan to approach and greet them. He was in a hurry to find Liam in the inpatient department, so he quickly glanced at them and left.

""HDaniel, how much longer until your hand is healed, Daniel?"" Madison asked, pretending to be concerned.
""The doctor said it will take about another two weeks.!"" Daniel was full of resentment towards William at this moment.
