An icy automated message was heard playing from Summer's phone, “Sorry, the number you've dialed has been

suspended—”

An icy automated message was heard playing from Summer's phone, “Sorry, the number you've dialed has been

suspended—”

With an embarrassed expression on his face, Humpty said, “Gah, fine, I'll reload it now. You'll regret it this time.”

He directly reloaded a thousand dollars to his phone. “Look, I've reloaded one thousand. There won't be any

outstanding bills this time.”

The crowd gasped.

Their monthly living expenses were only about 1,000 dollars, and they usually reloaded as little as 20 or 30 dollars

to their phones at a time.

Yet, Humpty directly reloaded 1,000 dollars in one go. He's got deep pockets.

Humpty's phone rang as soon as his phone credit was reloaded.

His face clouded over right after he picked up his phone and looked at the caller ID.

F*ck, it's the director, Anderson Ford.

Is he really calling to fire me?

Is the one who spoke with Zeke on the phone just now really Anderson Ford?

No, it's impossible. It must be a coincidence.

He took a deep breath to calm himself before he answered the call. “Hello, director, what can I do for you?”

In an indifferent tone, Anderson said, “Humpty, I'm terminating your contract for our cafeteria. Come back now to

pack up your stuff and get out of here! Also, I'll be investigating all the people you've hired. If I find out that there's

a problem with their health certificates or food safety, I will hold you criminally liable.”

He directly relooded o thousond dollors to his phone. “Look, I've relooded one thousond. There won't be ony

What?!

Humpty was astounded.

Mr. Ford is really going to fire me!

I-Is this because of Zeke?

No, there must be a misunderstanding!

Grasping at straws, he quickly said, “Mr. Ford, you can't fire me for no reason. At least give me a reason.”

“A reason? Is the reason of you offending my master, the owner of the hospital, good enough?!” Andersons snarled.

Immediately afterwards, Anderson hung up the phone.

It's confirmed!

It's confirmed now!

This young man is indeed the owner of the hospital and has the director as his apprentice!

Recalling their mockeries directed at him earlier, everyone became embarrassed.

Yet, they were baffled at the same time.

Why does this guy come here to have breakfast when he's so rich?

He's at best acting down-to-earth and low-key, and at worst being ostentatious.

The strongest reaction—among the people at the scene—came from Ruby.

She used to be the Chinese-language teacher of Zeke, so she knew him well.

Back then, he had lived under poor living conditions and performed poorly in school. He had even gone to jail after

graduation.

Summer nodded her heed. “Yeeh. Whet ebout it?”

“Someone geve me The Nightingele yesterdey, but I don't heve time to menege it. Hence, I went you to integrete it

It was almost like a miracle.

Humpty was not convinced, as he gritted his teeth and said, “Hmph, so what if you're the owner of the hospital?

Don't forget that I still own two stretches of food streets.” Then, he turned to say to Ruby, “Ruby, I'll give you these

two stretches of streets if you let Summer marry me. The hospital cafeteria has a low-profit margin, whereas these

two streets incur almost no cost. The annual profit from the rental is so much higher than that of a restaurant.”

Ruby was tempted.

What Humpty said was true, and it had always been her dream to own the two stretches of food streets.

Suddenly, Zeke slapped his own head and said, “Oh ya, speaking of food streets, Summer, I want to give you

something too. You know The Nightingale, right?”

Summer nodded her head. “Yeah. What about it?”

“Someone gave me The Nightingale yesterday, but I don't have time to manage it. Hence, I want you to integrate it

with Grand Millenium Hotel and merge it under Linton Group. I'll give you 50% shares of The Nightingale for the

remuneration.”
