“Here's a thousand. Go eat somewhere else. I don't want to see you here anymore.”
Donald had never wanted to involve himself in their affairs. In fact, he was prepared to leave right after the meal.
Unfortunately, Braulio's arrogance compelled him to teach the former a lesson.
Glancing at the bill from the corner of his eyes, Donald asked, “My friend, do you think you can act with impunity just because you're rich?”
“What's the matter? Is that not enough?”
Braulio grabbed another thousand from his wallet. Instead of tossing it on the table, he threw it at his own feet this time.
“Two thousand. Pick the money up and scram.”
Braulio was brimming with confidence, for that was how he resolved problems ever since he was young.
He had seen plenty of people like Donald, who only knew how to impress girls with puny tricks. Yet these very people never failed to succumb to the temptation of money.
That was the reason why Braulio saw Donald as unworthy of Hannah.
Turning toward Hannah, Donald let out a sigh. “What's wrong with your mother's taste? How can she introduce someone like that to you?”
Hannah sniggered as she replied, “I told you so. That's why I'm not interested in him at all.”
Braulio felt slighted when Hannah ignored him and chatted with Donald.
“Bloke, you're asking for trouble!”
As Braulio reached out to grab Donald, the latter slipped to the side and pushed Braulio's hand away.
Thereafter, he grabbed a piece of bread with his other hand and smashed it into Braulio's face.
The smell of the bread saturated Braulio's nostrils immediately.
