Chloe Grant finished speaking, and Lily Grant hurriedly nodded, "Yeah, yeah, you go ahead, I’ll wait for you here."
"You start eating first, by the time I get back it’ll probably be cold." Chloe Grant said as she got up from her seat.
Chloe Grant left her seat and walked towards the door.
As she opened the door and stepped out, she turned back to see Lily Grant already eating.
She was very happy, with a smile on her face as she ate.
Lily Grant truly lived up to her name, though she wasn’t a stunning beauty, she had that girl-next-door charm, very sweet, especially when she smiled, purely sweet.
Chloe Grant didn’t linger any longer, she closed the door of the private room and left.
Inside the private room.
Lily Grant ate leisurely and happily, unknowingly letting time slip away.
As she finished her meal, and most of the food on the table was gone, she realized Chloe Grant hadn’t come back yet.
Lily Grant checked the time and calculated that Chloe Grant had been in the restroom for half an hour.
"Why so long?" Lily Grant muttered, just as she was about to text Chloe Grant, the door to the private room was knocked.
She thought it was Chloe Grant returning, but it was the waiter instead.
The waiter came in, holding a slim black rectangular object, and as he came over to Lily Grant, he placed it upright, with a bill inside.
"Miss, here’s today’s bill," the waiter said politely.
"I’m waiting for my friend," Lily Grant replied naturally.
"Didn’t your friend already leave?" the waiter asked curiously.
The smile on Lily Grant’s face instantly froze, "What?"
"Ding dong," Lily Grant received a text message.
She frowned, naturally picked up her phone, and before unlocking it, her expression changed drastically when she saw the message.
Chloe: Sorry, I had to leave, pay the bill yourself, my dear sister!
Lily Grant stood up with a "whoosh," clutching her phone, her face changed, and after a long while, she gritted her teeth and yelled three words, "Chloe Grant!"
Outside the hotel on the street...
Chloe Grant could almost imagine Lily Grant in the private room at this moment, clutching her phone, grinding her teeth in anger.
The more she thought about it, she couldn’t help but laugh, "Hahaha."
It was an uncontrollable laugh, particularly exaggerated, her stomach even hurt.
Chloe Grant clutched her stomach with one hand and leaned against the glass door of a nearby shop with the other, laughing out loud in the bustling street.
Passersby looked at her as if she were crazy.
But Chloe Grant didn’t care; she was too pleased and just wanted to laugh.
When ordering the food earlier, she had roughly calculated that with all the dishes, service fees, and other room charges, the total would definitely exceed ten thousand.
Lily Grant and Chloe Grant were both freshmen, and the Grant family was relatively well-off, without financial worries, but spending ten thousand at once was unaffordable.
However, Chloe Grant knew that Lily Grant could definitely afford it.
Because Lily Grant had a credit card with a fifteen thousand limit.
Lily Grant had this credit card from a small trip they took before, when staying at a hotel where the deposit could only be covered by credit card or cash. At that time, Lily Grant told Chloe Grant that credit cards were convenient, but she had little balance as a student, so the bank wouldn’t approve a high limit. Even if approved, it wouldn’t be much.
So she asked Chloe Grant to lend her some money, to transfer into this bank card monthly, then transfer it out, essentially creating a flow, and eventually got it approved.
And she was sure Lily Grant would use this credit card to pay the bill, so...
