The lucky guys chosen tonight were about to land the best gig ever.

If they had to serve someone, it might as well be someone rich and beautiful.
The manager, William Cooper, was grinning as he walked out, clearly in a great mood.
At that same time, Gianna was hanging out with her friends in another private room–coincidentally right next to Amelia’s.
She had no idea Amelia and Patience were there.
When she saw William leading a bunch of handsome young guys toward the neighboring room, her curiosity instantly kicked in.
“Whoa, who’s that desperate to call in so many guys?” one of Gianna’s friends said, totally stunned.
This bar sometimes had young girls or guys to drink with customers, but it was usually just one or two. Seeing a whole group walk into one room? That was something new.
The prices here were ridiculous. Even rich people could blow through money fast.
“Who knows?” Gianna said with a look of disdain.
In her mind, it was probably a group of unattractive women.
Someone like her–beautiful, talented, and from a good family–had plenty of men chasing her already. Why would she ever need to call one?
She was totally convinced that every top–tier guy wanted her.
As she turned to go back inside, the last guy entering the next room forgot to shut the door.
Gianna’s sharp eyes caught sight of Amelia through the small gap.
Amelia? What’s she doing here?
If it were anyone else, Gianna wouldn’t have cared. But Amelia was her biggest rival. She’d recognize her anywhere–even if she turned to ashes.
Unable to hold back, Gianna moved closer, peeking inside to see what was going on.
Inside, Patience and Josie lit up when William brought in a lineup of tall, good–looking guys.
“Nice! You’ve got great taste, Mr. Cooper. I’ll definitely order more drinks tonight.
“Oh, and don’t just bring beer. Get me a few bottles of 1982 Lafite and your most expensive wine.”
Josie was so generous that William’s already squinty eyes almost disappeared behind his huge smile.
“Of course! I’ll have Ricky bring them over right away.”

Ricky was the bar’s most popular guy. He even did live streams to promote the place.
He was famous both online and off.
Josie wasn’t really into younger, cute types, though. She liked men who were more mature and refined.
But maybe Amelia or Patience would find them fun.
Either way, partying together was better than drinking alone.
“Amelia, Patience, go ahead and pick whoever catches your eye,” Josie said casually, like she was reading a
menu.
“Uh, I’m good. You guys go ahead.” Amelia refused right away.
She had zero interest. Even sharing a drink with one of them didn’t appeal to her.
“Come on, don’t be such a buzzkill. You’ll hurt their feelings,” Josie teased with a playful grin.
She knew her friends weren’t into it, but honestly, it felt great to flip the usual script.
Why did men get to have multiple wives back in the day, while women were stuck at home raising kids?
And why could guys today go out partying while women have to cook, clean, and still drag themselves to work the next morning?
That was exactly why Josie loved staying single.
Getting married just meant getting trapped in endless responsibilities until life lost all its color.
Living for herself was way better.
She’d got money and good health–no risk of high blood pressure or breast lumps. She could take off on a trip anytime she wanted.
That kind of lifestyle was way better.
Luckily, her family was open–minded, and her parents adored her. No forced marriages or anything like
that.
“Miss, I can dance! What kind do you want? I’ll do it for you!”
“Miss, I can do magic tricks, tell jokes–anything you want!”
“I’m a heavy drinker and make killer cocktails. Want to try one?”
The
guys were eager not to be ignored, so they all began showing off.
There was no avoiding it. Wealthy, gorgeous customers were basically money walking around!
Amelia rubbed her forehead and gave Josie a helpless look, as if to say, “What have you done?”

“Haha, Amelia! Look at you–scaring them! Can’t you just have fun for once?” Josie teased, grinning.
Patience laughed. “Yeah, live it up! Way better than those Nygard jerks.”
Here at least, they didn’t have to deal with annoying guys or that pain–in–the–ass Gianna.
