The statement was meant to remind Minerva that if she allowed Matthew to make arrangements, theywould be able to eat for free tonight.

Unfortunately, Minerva only got more furious and she yelled, “Who are you looking down on, huh? Don’tyou know where we’re from? We just came back from living abroad! We’ve seen much better than yourpuny restaurant and don’t need you to cover our expenses! We didn’t even need to use your patheticlocal currency while overseas!”

However, Helen kindly reminded her, “That’s not what the waiter means, Minerva. He’s only offering tocover your expenses as we are family. Why not save where you can?”

Feeling like her pride was hurt, Minerva shouted, “Are you looking down on us as well, Aunt Helen? Doyou think we’re so poor that we wouldn’t be able to afford a meal? Sure, your family is quite rich now butthat doesn’t mean you can look down on us!”

Hurriedly, Helen murmured, “No; that’s not what I meant, Minerva—”

“Alright, stop arguing!” Chloe held up her hands. “Look—I know your aunt, Minnie, and she’s onlyspeaking up for our sake. But Helen, since we already said that we’re treating you to dinner tonight, ofcourse we’ll be paying. It’s only a meal, so don’t take it to heart, okay?”

Having no other choice, Helen stayed silent.

With that, Jonah gestured to the waiter. “Go on, then; bring me the menu!” he boomed, upon which thewaiter promptly looked at Matthew.

It wasn’t until Matthew nodded slightly that the waiter left.

With a deeply dissatisfied expression, Minerva grumbled, “High and mighty piece of sh*t! Does he thinkwe’re easy to bully because we have a Silver Card? It’s Silver only because we just returned to the

country. I’ll go get myself a Supreme Card within a few days and then, I’ll see if he dares talk to me likethat again!”

Demi chuckled coldly in response. “That’s very ambitious of you, Minerva! I’ll be looking forward toseeing you with your Supreme Card so don’t disappoint me, okay?”

This time, Minerva could hear the disdain in her voice and she shot back angrily, “Fine; just you wait. It’sonly a Supreme Card. How difficult can it be to get?”

Demi snorted coldly and chose to remain silent. Sitting next to her, James was equally gobsmacked.

Why is Minerva so vain and arrogant? he thought to himself. Bringing up the fact that she lived overseasat every opportunity… What’s so great about that?

Soon, the waiter returned with a menu.

With a haughty expression, Jonah accepted the menu and passed it over to James carelessly, saying,“You choose first, James. Pick whatever you want—don’t be shy!”

Curling his lip, James answered, “I’m not particularly craving for anything. You go ahead and choosewhat you think is best.”

After a round of polite refusals from around the table, the menu was back in Jonah’s hands.

With a smile, he said, “Since you’re letting me choose, I shan’t disappoint all of you. Money isn’t an issue—the most important thing is for us to have a good time at this family gathering tonight. Come here, boy!Tell me your signature dishes. Oh, and they must be the most expensive ones!”

Courteously, the waiter stepped forward and answered, “Everything on the first two pages of the menu isconsidered a signature dish of ours, sir. Please take a look. If there’s anything you would like, please letme know.”

And so, Jonah opened the menu to take a look, only to suck in a cold breath of air.

Originally, he hadn’t thought the prices here would be too expensive. After all, the dinner at The CourtParlour last night was expensive only because it was a special occasion.

Now, however, he was completely stunned by the prices on the menu.

The food here was at least twice the prices of the food at The Court Parlour!
