Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 273

If it were other ladies who lost their phone, they would have been frantic.

Circe Newman was no ordinary woman. She was incredibly calm when she realized her phone and purse were missing.

Darryl complimented her silently. It was no wonder that she was the Belle of Hexad's. Her aura of calmness and confidence was unrivaled.

What happened? Did she lose her phone?

The rest were confused. If Circe could not pay, would everyone have to split the bill?

Declan could not put up an act anymore, being slumped on the table the entire time. What was happening? Circe could not pay? If he continued faking being drunk, people were bound to talk. He would have to face the music.

He was reluctant, but he yawned and stood up slowly. He pretended to be surprised. "Oh, I'm so sorry! How did I fall asleep? I'm sure everyone had fun today! I'll g o pay."

F*ck. It looked like he had to beg his family for the money.

Declan scratched his head. "Guys, this meal costs thirty million. My money is locked in shares," he

admitted. "I'd have to get my dad to transfer the cash t o me."

He took a deep breath as he took his phone and dialed his father. His father was Jason Noel, a relatively famous businessman in the food processing business.

The phone call went through. Declan forced a smile as he muttered nervously, "Dad, could you wire another thirty million for me?"

He had to get the money somehow, even if it means getting an earful from his father.

"What? More money?" Jason-on the other end of the phone call-was furious. He reprimanded, "You bastard. I just gave you thirty million before you enrolled in Hexad's, and you’ve already spent it in a few days? You're a huge failure and a disappointment!" 1

Jason was livid. He worked hard his entire life, yet this bastard son spent tens of millions in a short period.
