The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 3042

Austin and his family were on the third floor of the Luxury Restaurant.

It cost his parents a whopping five hundred dollars to book this room.

Chad and their parents were all heartbroken when they caught sight of the bill.

To dine in such a fancy restaurant was indeed too much for any poor family from a small town, but they had no choice.

This was the restaurant chosen by the woman Chad had to meet up with.

"It's all right," Austin's mother kept reassuring him. "Your father and brother now have their own jobs. They can earn at least five thousand dollars every month. We can afford to eat here even just this once."

For his part, Austin was amused more than anything.

He was tempted to tell his mother that they had, in fact, enough money to buy the entire Luxury Restaurant, let alone have a single meal there.

They were filthy rich.

Well, he wanted the perfect opportunity and timing to break the news so he kept his mouth shut.

The four of them waited and fidgeted in the room for the better part of two hours before the door opened.

Afra entered along with a young girl.

Afra was in her fifties, had small eyes, and wore impeccable clothes and dark lipstick.

Austin immediately had the impression that she was a cunning old hag.

He turned to look at the girl behind her.

He eyed her up and down, his eyebrows slowly rising as he took in every detail.

The girl was probably around twenty-five years old, had curly red hair, fair complexion, and very fine features. In short, she was pretty.

What was more, she had excellent taste in makeup. She wore it lightly, with only a faint swipe of silver on her lids that made her look all the more alluring.

She was also wearing a beige one piece dress, which gave her an air of chic sophistication.

It would seem that she preferred a style that made her look more mature than her age.

Austin glanced at her eyes, and he couldn't help but feel that this younger girl was shrewd and experienced beneath all her facade.

His spiritual sense being as extremely strong as it was, and he being a good observer, so he could infer a person's character with a single glance.

'This woman appears to be very good with men, ' he thought to himself. 'She seems worldly and able to manipulate people easily. My brother, on the other hand, is simple and honest. They wouldn't be a good match.'

Meanwhile, Chad and their parents had also been discreetly eyeing the girl as they exchanged greetings and pleasantries.

Judging by the looks on his family's faces, Austin knew that they found her favorable, most likely because she was beautiful.

He could even see hints of a blush on Chad's cheeks as he stole glances at the girl from time to time.

As it was, his family poured tea for the two women, coddling them.

They didn't notice the way the young girl's eyes sharpened when she looked at the Lin family and how her glances bore a hint of disgust and contempt.

It didn't take long before she dismissed them altogether.

She took out her iPhone and proceeded to play games, completely ignoring her adoring audience, acting as if they didn't exist.

Afra, on the other hand, was enthusiastic in her interactions with the family.

She told them that the girl's name was Kate, and explained her circumstances.

Kate used to work in a big city. She had returned only recently and found a job in town.

Afra said the girl intended to marry and settle down here.

"So you've worked in a big city. It's very different from a small town," Austin's mother addressed Kate kindly. It was obvious she was eager to talk with her prospective daughter-in-law.

In response, Kate only nodded without taking her eyes off her screen.

Austin's mother kept trying to engage her in conversation several times after that, but Kate never showed interest. She hadn't once said a word.

When the waitress entered to serve them, Austin's mother directed her to take Kate's order first, and offered their guests' order whatever they wanted.

This development seemed to cheer Kate up somewhat, and she finally put her phone down.

She was in a good mood as she enumerated all the expensive food on the menu.

Austin's parents were appalled. They were looking at the menus themselves, and the prices of the food Kate was ordering were popping up.

Their minds were scrambling to calculate the total amount it would cost them.
