My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 70

"Miss, are you paying by cash or credit card?" The waiter asked coldly.

Lara fell on the ground, feeling so helpless. She didn't have any money. She couldn't even afford 10,000 dollars. 44,000 dollars was just too much! How could she possibly pay that?

"Let’s call the police. She doesn't seem like she has the money." the waiter said.

"Yes, she's just shocked. Let’s call the police!" another waiter agreed to his suggestion.

Several waiters came up with the ideas since the bottles of wine were broken, and if Lara didn’t want to pay for it, they would have to pay for it.

Lara's tears burst out at once. She cried and shook her head. "No, please don't call the police, don't call the police!" she pleaded.

Her family situation was ordinary where she can definitely pay the 44,000 dollars. However, she did not dare to tell her family what happened as she was too afraid that she would be beaten to death by her family members.

But if they called the police, the police would still call her family. By then, Lara would really be in trouble.

"We won’t call the police if you pay for it. Cash or cards are both accepted," the waiter said.

"But I don't have the money." Lara bawled.

Lara despaired, her tears could not stop flowing.

When she sent the message to "baller" just now, she suddenly remembered that her cousin, Charlotte Yates told her that “baller” who bought a car was very young and was still a college student.

She then started to feel regretful when she recalled back what had happened just now. She was too desperate to meet “baller” but she didn't expect to meet a fake one. When she was struggling just now, that bastard touched her butt and even her boobs...

The more Lara thought about it, the more she wanted to cry. She felt that she had very many grievances in her heart. Many onlookers crowded the space when hearing a loud cry.

"What's going on?" Someone couldn't help asking.

"This beauty has knocked over five bottles of red wine," the waiter said indifferently.

"Isn’t it enough to pay back the money? What's the big deal? Why do you make her cry?" That onlooker blamed the waiter.

"Sir, first of all, we did not do anything and she already started crying, and secondly, the red wine costs 8,800 dollars each, and five bottles cost a total of 44,000 dollars..."

More than a dozen people at the scene were very surprised and looked at Lara with sympathy. It was too expensive. They all started to think Lara should bear the responsibility and accept the bad luck since it was still her fault.

"Lara, what's wrong?" a voice came through.

Among the crowd, one of her classmates who came out to take a break heard the cry and came over to have a look. But she didn't expect to see Lara crying.

"Fanny..." Lara got up and cried while holding her.

"It’s going to be fine. What's wrong?" Fanny Lowe asked.

Fanny tried to comfort her and pat on Lara’s back. Yet, she also noticed the broken wine bottles and a pool of red wine on the floor. She roughly knew why Lara cried. She was scared for her too, how much would she need to pay for that?

"I broke the wine, and they asked me to pay 44,000 dollars," Lara cried.

"Forty-four thousand?!" Fanny was shocked.

"Hey beauty, you need to compensate us immediately. Otherwise, we will call the police to deal with this." the waiter threatened her.

With the waiters urging, there were more and more onlookers. They had to deal with the problem as soon as possible. If it affected their business in the store, they would also have to take the blame.

"Don't call the police!" Fanny shouted.

Lara cried and shook her head. Fanny then suggested, "Lara, don't you know the boss here? Why don't you let him come over to deal with it?"

“When Lara went out just now, wasn't she going to look for the boss?” Fanny thought.

"I..." Lara felt even more wrong. “That bastard was pretending to be “baller”!" she thought.

But she couldn't tell that out loud. What a shame! How could she mention that she was tricked by an old man just now?

"If you don't want us to call the police, you can pay for it!" The waiter said impatiently.

"I..." Lara couldn't stop her tears from dripping. “Where can I find the forty-four thousand dollars? My cousin, Charlotte Yates? But she had just paid thirty thousand dollars for renovation and had no money left. So who should I look for?” She really had no idea.

“Baller”?

Lara quickly took out her mobile phone and sent a WeChat voice message to "baller" in tears,

"I've caused trouble in the KTV in City Square. Baller, can you come to help me, please?"

Chuck, who came out from the boss room, felt his phone message’s vibration again. Chuck took it out and tapped on the WeChat voice message sent by Lara with doubts. He put the mobile phone in his ear and listened. “This fool is finally apologizing for her mistake?” he thought.
