This. The waitress showed hesitation.
“What are you stalling for? Are you trying to lose your job? Should I call your manager?” Jasmine snapped angrily.
Wendy couldn’t hold back any longer. “Hey! Just because you’re a VIP doesn’t mean you’re all want the VIP room!”
that. First come, first served! We were here first, and vi
“I’m a VIP at NO.8, and you’re nothing! You’ve got no right to act so arrogant!” Jasmine sneered.
She turned back to the waitress. “I want that room! Did you hear me?”
“This young lady, could you please follow the rules? We were here first,” the waitress said, her tone trying to remain polite.
Simon was getting a good look at Jasmine’s true colors now and couldn’t help but feel exasperated. No wonder Caitlin had suffered so much in the past- Jasmine was probably one of the people behind it.
Jasmine glanced at Simon, and noticing that he wasn’t bad looking, her tone softened just a little. “Sorry, but since I’m a VIP, I have priority. My friends and I are waiting to sing. You’re just a few people–what use do you have for the VIP room? Why not give it to us?”
“Yeah! We’re a bigger group!” Joanna and the others chimed in.
“We’re not giving it to you!” Wendy cross
her arms, standing her ground.
snapped.
“Fine. I’ll call the manager then!” Jasmin
Familiar with the staff at NO.8, Jasmine quickly made the call. Soon enough, a well–dressed man arrived–it was Mike, the manager of NO.8. Upon seeing Jasmine, he greeted her politely.
“Caitlin, what’s going on here?” Mike asked.
“It’s like this, Mike. We wanted to book the VIP room, but it’s the last one, and these people are refusing to let us have it,” Caitlin explained.
“We were here first, but they want to take it from us!” Wendy added.
Jasmine, not missing an opportunity, added, “But I’m a VIP, and I deserve the room first!”
Mike listened carefully and then explained, “I’m sorry, VIPs do indeed have priority, unless you’re a Diamond–level VIP, in which case you have an even higher privilege. Are any of you members here? What level are you?”
“We’re not members…” The others admitted.
Jasmine snorted. “What a joke! You’re not even members, and you want to fight me for the room?”
At this moment, Sebastian was nearby, around the corner, and had overheard the entire exchange. That Jasmine really was a pain! He’d been annoyed by her back at the hospital, and now she was stirring trouble here as well.
“Xavi, contact Ben!” Sebastian ordered.
Xavi quickly dialed Benjamin, and the call was soon connected.
Meanwhile, Mike had made his decision. He looked at the group and said, “Since you’re not members, I’m afraid I can’t give the VIP room to you. We‘ have to give it to Jasmine.”
Jasmine had finally succeeded in taking the room. She raised her chin smugly and directed a haughty look at Caitlin and her friends. “You can leave now. What are you still standing here for?”

Joanna and the others eagerly joined in, whispering and laughing at their misfortune,
Mike, trying to avoid offending the customers, then said, “Ladies, we do have regular rooms available as well. They’re nice and I can show you
At this point, Caitlin and hei group were prepared to accept the suggestion, when suddenly Mike’s phone rang
“Excuse me, I need to take this call.” Mike said as he answered.
When he finished the call, Mike’s calm demeanor was replaced by a stunned look.
“Excuse me for a moment,” he said to the staff at the front desk. “The VIP room can’t be given to Jasmine anymore! Take it back now!”
“What’s the meaning of this? Didn’t you promise it to me?” she demanded.
“No, it’s for Miss Caitlin. Could you please tell me which one of you is Caitlin?” Mike asked.
Jasmine and her friends were stunned. Diamond VIP? That meant Caitlin had an even higher status than they could have imagined. Mike handed the room card to Caitlin with both hands. “Caitlin, here is your room. Everything tonight is on the house.”
Meanwhile, Jasmine was seething with anger. She felt like the room had been ripped from her grasp at the last moment. Her frustration was unbearable.
