Since Hannah had said as much, Samuel knew there was no point in arguing. He would just have to trust her completely.
That evening, at eight o'clock, in a five-star hotel.
Samuel drove Hannah, following the siblings' car.
When they reached the private room, Gary greeted them warmly and handed the menu to Hannah.
Hannah didn't hold back, ordering all the restaurant's signature and most expensive dishes.
Although they were part of the family, they didn't control the company and were currently living off their parents' supplementary cards.
So, as Hannah ordered one expensive dish after another, their faces began to grow grim.
They thought she was finished, but then she continued, and with every dish she named, their expressions darkened a little more until their faces were like thunderclouds.
Seeing their stormy expressions, Hannah finally closed the menu and handed it to the waiter.
She smiled at them. "Did I order too much? If so, I can cancel a few things. I wouldn't want you to spend too much."
Looking at Hannah's facade of consideration, when it was clear she would have happily ordered more, the siblings wanted to just get up and leave. If it weren't for needing Lionel's help, they would have walked out. They'd never met someone so shameless. Even as someone's guest, you were supposed to show some restraint.
She was doing this on purpose. This woman was definitely doing this on purpose!
Gary, however, was more composed, having had some experience with business dinners.
"Not at all. If it's not enough, feel free to order more."
Her words hit Gary and Cherry like a thunderclap.
No... impossible!
How could she have guessed? Or did she know all along and only agreed to come to trap them?
"Hannah, what nonsense are you talking about? We just invited you to dinner to apologize. There's no other meaning..." Gary's heart was racing, but he didn't dare tell the truth.
His plan was to feign ignorance when Lionel arrived and act surprised to see him.
"Is that so? Well, if you didn't invite him, then never mind. I was just thinking that if you had, I might have considered talking things over with him for your sake."
