Chapter 45
Charlie was very happy to hear his wife say so. 1
It seemed that he had picked the best venue for their wedding anniversary. She must be so thrilled and happy on that day! 1
They walked into the Sky Garden and sat down in the reserved seats. Soon, Loreen arrived.
"Claire!" i
"Loreen!"
The two best friends hugged each other, happiness flooding their expressions.
Then, they reminisced about their past excitedly while holding hands. It took them a while until they finally calmed down from the excitement.
Loreen chided, "Claire, you’re such a spendthrift. You actually booked the Sky Garden for dinner!" 2
Claire giggled gleefully, "You’re here! Of course I’d need to spend some money!" 1 NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Loreen grinned. "You’re my best friend!"
"Frankly speaking, I’m not qualified to dine here. I'd asked Miss Doris Young to make the reservation for m e with her membership card!"
Loreen sighed. "The Sky Garden sets quite a high requirement, doesn't it? I heard that it's only for their
Diamond members or something, right?" 2 "Yes." Claire nodded. "Honestly, this is my first time here!" 2
Doreen smiled. "Thank you so much, my dear Claire!"
She then continued, "By the way, on my way here, I saw the notice at the entrance that said the Sky Garden is booked three days later. Is that true?" 1
"Yes," Claire replied, "That’s very odd. The Sky Garden has never approved any reservations or bookings before. I wonder what's up with them now." 1
Doreen nodded and said, "Some time ago, there was this video online about a mysterious rich man in Aurous Hill that came with dozens of Rolls-Royces, men in black, and suitcases with cash just to buy a necklace. Have you guys watched the video?”
Charlie shook his head. Claire said, "I have, it's quite a big deal." 1
"Everyone is guessing who he is."
"What is there to guess.." 1
"For gossip, of course! Everyone is eager to know who he is, so domineering and handsome. Some say he's the new chairman of Emgrand Group.” 2
Charlie suddenly froze in shock for an instant but quickly regained his composure. 2
Doreen continued, "Now, someone has booked Shangri-Da's Sky Garden. That's an unprecedented decision, isn't it? I think that the person who booked this place i s the same person who bought the necklace in the video." 1
Claire heaved a helpless sight. "We haven’t seen each other for so long and you’re still the same old busybody!" 3
Loreen laughed and said, “Gossip is the driving force for women to survive!" i
She then continued, "I’m going to come here three days later to see for myself the person powerful enough to book the Sky Garden!"
Charlie, who had been listening to the entire conversation quietly, suddenly felt a headache incoming. 3
All he wanted to do was to give his wife a surprise and a wedding that he couldn't honor her. 1
He didn't want any of the unwanted attention. 3
However, he seemed to have underestimated the influence of the Sky Garden. 2
He figured that there were many people in Aurous Hill who shared the same idea as Loreen-they wanted to see who the person who booked the Sky Garden was.
