"Oh right, Rachel's husband is going to treat us, right? He’s a factory manager, a big boss. This small amount of money is nothing to him," Rosa said, smiling.
Dylan’s expression darkened. It was true: he had said that he was going to treat everyone to bolster his reputation.
However, the incident from that morning cost him a lot of money. Moreover, their factory had not received a lot of orders these past two months. He might not be able to foot the bill if they ate and drank until it raked up to a few hundred thousand.
More importantly, he would need to pay plenty of medical bills to the hospital.
"N-No problem!”
Rachel managed an awkward smile. She had said that while she was boasting. She could not turn back now, not when her reputation was at stake.
"Hello, everyone. Long time no see!"
Trevor chuckled heartily as he walked over.
"That's right, Trevor. We haven't seen each other in a long time. We're gathered here today to welcome you back!”
Hugh smiled. "What happened? Your girlfriend isn't with you?"
"Oh, she had some business to attend to tonight.
That's why she isn’t here."
Trevor scanned the crowd. "What's wrong? Aren't we all here? Why aren't we going in yet?"
"Heh. A very beautiful woman hasn't arrived yet. Want to take a lucky guess, Trevor?" Rachel spoke in a mysterious tone.
"A very beautiful woman?"
Trevor was stunned for a while, and after racking his mind, he answered, "You're already here...so the only other person who you call 'beautiful' is Selena Taylor, right? What happened? You guys managed to get in contact with her?"
