Julie didn't notice how Claire’s expression suddenly changed. She pulled the man next to her with a smug smile on her face and said, "Let me introduce you to m y husband, Kyle!" i
Then, she complimented, "He is the young master of the Sullivan family and also the heir apparent to his family's fortunes worth hundreds of millions!” 5
Claire nodded politely.
Charlie, on the other hand, glared at the young couple i n annoyance. 1
He brought his wife here for their wedding anniversary, who knew such an annoying blockhead would appear in their way!
Julie continued in her smug tone, "Oh, by the way, my husband is a platinum member, so he has a lot of benefits and privileges here. I guess the best Charlie could get is the normal suite, am I right? Why don’t I let Kyle upgrade you guys to the luxury suite?" 2
Claire was about to reject her offer when Charlie chuckled and said, "Well, I booked quite a nice place, s 0 thanks but no thanks.” 2
He had booked the entire Sky Garden to make up a grand wedding for his dear wife, why was she so proud of being a mere platinum member?
Besides, his family owned the entire Shangri-La hotel chain. It would be a disgrace to his status if he took his wife to the luxury suite for platinum members. 2
There was an obvious expression of displeasure on Julie's face as she sneered, "Claire, just look at your rude and ungrateful husband. How do you normally lecture him?" 3
She then wrapped her arms around Kyle's, nestled her head on his shoulder, and said with a coy smile, "With that attitude, Charlie doesn't deserve to be at such an elegant and lavish occasion. I suggest that you let my husband guide him about aristocratic etiquette and how to carry himself. After all, my husband has spent some time studying in the UK." 2
Kyle glanced disdainfully at Charlie and smirked." Dear, please don't assign me such an impossible task. Mr... Mr. Wade here is so maverick and unique, it is a tough row to hoe." 2
Julie nodded in agreement. She then turned to Claire and sighed, "In my opinion, I think you'd better divorce him as soon as possible. I feel so sorry that you'd have to spend the rest of your life with a loser like Charlie!" 4
