My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily Brooks and Loid Laurier)

Chapter 204

Visibly cheered, Loid took Lily's hand. He stared at Nora and invited her flatly, "Aunt Nora, join us. It's not often that our petty little girl here is generous."

"I-It's fine." Nora fought to maintain her smile. "I said I'd treat you to dinner."

"The private lounge for diamond-tier members is not as comfortable as the one for premier diamond-tier members, right?" Then, Loid leisurely led Lily farther into the restaurant, leaving behind Nora and the others who looked dismayed.

Yolanda nearly died of jealousy when she witnessed Loid and Lily being intimate and holding hands. Pressing her lips together, she snapped, "Hmph! She'd better not get ahead of herself. That must be Lo's card that she used to show off.

"How could the restaurant grant a country bumpkin the premier diamond membership?"

Gulping hard, Nora glanced at Yolanda. "Lo doesn't have La Caprese's membership. The owner had wanted to gift him a premier diamond membership, but he turned it down."

Yolanda looked wild in disbelief. "What? So, where did Lily get the card from?"

Nora replied glumly, "It's hers."

They had wrongly assumed Lily to be a country bumpkin. As a premier diamond member, Lily was a VIP guest of La Caprese.

Although La Caprese's standing was incomparable to that of a four-star hotel, its competent owner recorded tens of millions in sales per day by serving up excellent menu items. Many who were envious of La Caprese had made generous offers to acquire it, but none had succeeded in doing so.

Some troublemakers had attempted to stir trouble at La Caprese in the past, yet the owner always breezily settled it. That established La Caprese as a legend in the hospitality industry.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Not even the wealthy could buy a premier diamond membership at La Caprese as the owner would decide on the recipients of the card. So far, only two individuals in the world held the coveted membership.

Once, Nora had attempted to get herself the premier diamond membership by borrowing the Albott family's fame, but the restaurant turned down her request. When she threatened them with her influence, she was nearly blacklisted and had to make use of her connections to resolve the situation.

Therefore, she had no doubt that Lily owned the membership card.

Nora felt frustrated. She had intended to put Lily in a difficult spot and show Lily the huge difference in their social status so that Lily would back out of the relationship. Never had she expected to be put in her place by Lily.

The humiliation stung.

Despite looking flustered, Yolanda insisted, "Who knows if she didn't pick up the card from somewhere? Even if she owns the card, she still comes from a humble background. She doesn't deserve Lo."

Nora shot a look at Yolanda and quietly shook her head. Then, she followed Lily and Loid to the top floor. Seeing that, Yolanda, Joanne, and the rest followed suit without a word.

The top floor, the most luxurious space in the entire restaurant and mind-blowingly spacious, came with a private kitchen. The chefs were ready to serve, whether or not there were customers.

Rumor had it that none of the premier diamond members had ever patronized the top-floor lounge. Besides the dining area, the top floor offered a break corner, where one could take a shower and enjoy a massage. What a one-stop service!

Nora was green in envy but hid it well.

The waiter offered them the menus. Lily made the waiter pass the menus to Nora, Yolanda, and the others. "You're the guests. Please make you pick."

With that, Lily asserted her position as the host, making Nora feel uneasy.

Irked, Yolanda tossed the menu back onto the table. "Aren't you treating us to dinner? Why don't you order instead? Or are you clueless because you've never dined at a fine dining establishment?"

Glancing at Yolanda with a roguish smile, Lily announced, "Fine. I'll do it."
