Lucas, who had returned to his company by now, likely wasn't strapped for cash anymore.

When he heard she spent nearly a hundred thousand on dinner, Lucas' voice carried a hint of irritation, "Linda, were you dining on dragon meat? A meal for ninety-eight thousand?" Linda's voice was filled with grievance, "I got an exclusive interview with Connor and was treating my colleagues. It was Chloe who ordered the meals. I didn't realize she ordered so much food, including svery expensive wine." The mention of Chloe made Lucas frown. His tone softened considerably towards Linda, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. It was Chloe's doing, then." After a brief pause, Lucas said, "I'm nearby. I'll be right there." Ten minutes later, Lucas showed up at Antique House.

He first settled the bill, and then, he made his way to the private room.

Upon seeing Lucas, Linda's eyes shimmered with tears, as if she had suffered a great injustice. She hurriedly approached Lucas. "Lucas, you're finally here." In front of everyone, Lucas gently put his arm around Linda's shoulder. "Don't worry, I've taken care of the bill." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the bill was settled. Their attitudes changed instantly. Vivian led the praise, "Linda, you're so lucky to have a boyfriend who's not only handsbut rich." Blushing, Linda introduced him to everyone. "Letintroduce you. This is my boyfriend, Lucas Moncada." Vivian looked surprised. "I've heard of this name. Could he be the heir to Moncada International..." Lucas simply said, "No, it's just a coincidence." After that, his gaze shifted to Chloe. "Chloe, chere!" Everyone was taken aback.

With her designer bag and high heels, Chloe walked up to Lucas and said indifferently, "Be a good man and don't block my path." Lucas was fuming. He grabbed Chloe's arm and headed for the door, quickly turning into an adjacent empty room. Then, the door was shut from the inside.

The crowd was left dumbfounded. A hint of embarrassment crossed Linda's face.

"Linda, your boyfriend knows Chloe?" "We all went to high school together, so yes, we know each other. And back in high school, Chloe..." Linda deliberately stopped mid-sentence.

Vivian snorted coldly, "Now I know why Chloe dislikes you so much. She m must have had a crush on your have had boyfriend in high school but couldn't win him over, so she's jealous of you." Linda defended Chloe with a deliberate tone, "It's not what you think, and besides, that's all in the past." After Lucas pulled Chloe into the room, he coldly questioned her, "Chloe, I've told you countless times not to bully Linda. Are you taking my words lightly?" Chloe casually found a sofa to sit on. She lowered her head to admire her newly done nails. "She wanted to treat us. Nobody forced her."

"So you intentionally ordered those expensive dishes, knowing Linda's om financial situation, How are you any different from those petty people who flaunt their wealth to embarrass others?"

Chloe looked up, her eyes clear but visibly tinged with anger. "Yes, I know about her family's situation, and e know you two are short on money, so I did it on purpose to bully her. As for why, I'm just giving her a taste of her own medicine." Ashburn >
