Alexander said it in such a delicate way that Johan‘s answer did not matter anymore. It was undeniable
that the latter was frustrated and embarrassed.
Because both of them were famous big shots in Tissote, the atmosphere became tense and suffocating
at once with the two men in a stalemate.
Fortunately, the waiter was observant and quickly went to inform the manager upon perceiving the
awkward situation.
Since the manager was also a shrewd lady, she knew that could not afford to offend either party. So, she
thought of a way to separate them. “Mr. Olson, your client is still waiting for you.”
Initially, Johan was still thinking about how he should put this to an end, and the opportunity soon came.
Despite feeling pleased inwardly, he still feigned an impatient look as he cast a side glance at the
manager with a long face before looking at Alexander again. “Mind you. No one will forever be on a roll.
You‘re just lucky today but we‘ll wait and see,” Johan gritted his teeth and warned Alexander.
Thereafter, he put his arm around his companion‘s waist and left.
Meanwhile, the manager and waiter stood aside with their heads lowered. It was only after Johan and
the woman had walked away did they go up to apologize to Alexander. “I‘m so sorry for the interruption,
Mr. Griffith. Your meal will be on the house today. Besides, I‘ll ask the waiters to send another bottle of
first–class wine. Please forgive us and don‘t take it to heart.”
Alexander had no intention to put the manager in a difficult position to begin with, so he looked down and
nodded. “Mm–hmm.”
Hearing that, the manager curled her lips slightly and was overjoyed. “I shall excuse myself first then.”
As she said that, she gave a look to the waiter behind her, and the two quickly left.
On the other hand, Elise had been observing this female manager‘s performance and realized she was
very sharp, so she couldn‘t help praising her. “This manager is rather observant–she knows it‘s worse to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtoffend you than Johan.”
Hearing that, Alexander smiled faintly and went back to his seat. “Do you think she‘s just a manager?”
Elise was confused. “Isn‘t she?”
Seeing that Elise had already finished half of her dessert, Alexander put his beside her. “To be precise,
she‘s actually the owner of this restaurant.”
Surprised, Elise couldn‘t help but look toward the direction where the manager left again.
In the restaurant they were currently dining in, one meal could easily cost up to ten thousand. Hence, it
was deemed as a restaurant of the highest standard in Tissote. With that said, the female manager was
indeed extraordinary to have this kind of achievement at such a young age.
“Let‘s drop this topic.” Alexander was not too interested in other people‘s matters, so he switched the
topic. “Do you feel like getting revenge?”
“What?” Elise was stunned for a moment.
Alexander lifted his brows and did not explain further.
Elise looked at his expression and understood at once. Then, she waved her hands about and rejected
him. “I didn‘t take it to heart.”
After saying that, Elise thought something was not right, so she quickly added, “However, a jerk like him
indeed deserves a lesson.”
While Janice was alone staying in the hospital, Johan was swaggeringly having a good time out here.
Anyone who saw this situation would want to teach him a lesson.
Elise was not a busybody, but she would readily lend a helping hand to a stranger who was faced with
injustice, let alone Janice.
Pressing her lips, Elise pondered for a while and had an idea in no time. She looked at Alexander and
said excitedly, “Mr. Griffith, would you like to help establish justice?”
Alexander looked at Elise‘s quirky expression and smiled in affection. “I‘d love to.”
Thereafter, Elise grabbed Alexander‘s phone over and sent a message to the major news forums in the
city before returning the phone to Alexander again, satisfied. “Your phone, sir.”
“What did you do?” Alexander was curious as he had rarely seen Elise this bubbly.
“You‘ll know tomorrow.” Saying that, Elise then finished the remaining half of the dessert in one gulp.
The next day, when Johan woke up on the big bed in a high–end hotel, the woman beside him was still
sound asleep. Dressed in a bathrobe, he got out of the bed to pour a glass of wine. Then. he drank it
while walking toward the living room and sat down on the couch to read the news habitually.
However, a few minutes after he started scrolling through his iPad, his finger stopped midair above the
screen.
*Famous model Vivian is exposed for living a promiscuous life and has had illicit relationships with
numerous magnates. It is alleged that Vivian is diagnosed with an STD, and several famous individuals
have already gone for a checkup at hospitals as of now…‘
Johan thought he had read it wrongly, so he quickly put down the wine glass in his hand and zoomed in
on the screen with his two fingers.
After confirming that the Vivian mentioned in the news was none other than the woman lying on his bed,
Johan was so annoyed that he threw the iPad right away and snarled loudly, “F*ck this wh*re!”
The iPad was smashed onto the cupboard‘s glass, and Vivian was awakened by the noise. Ruffling her
hair, she sat up on the bed in a daze. Before she could open her eyes, Johan grabbed her hair and gave
her a fierce slap in her face.
After falling back to the bed after getting hit, Vivian covered her face in pain and whined pitifully, “What is
this about, Mr. Olson? Didn‘t we have a great time last night? You hurt me…”
Johan scolded while putting on his shirt, “Shut up, you b*tch! You got me in deep trouble! If something
really happens to me, I‘ll kill you!”
Vivian stopped whining at once and could only sob softly as she did not dare to look at Johan. Even after
the latter had left, she still did not understand how exactly she offended him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter that, Johan spent an entire two hours undergoing every possible checkup. It was only until the
result was released to confirm that he was not infected with any disease did he feel relieved and leave
the hospital.
“You got frightened pretty bad, huh?” Suddenly, Matthew appeared beside Johan.
Hearing that, Johan turned to look at Matthew‘s direction sulkily. In one glance, Johan immediately
recognized the young master who was once on the big headlines. “Damn! Yet another Griffith! What an
unlucky day!” he tutted.
“Not at all. You need to be clear of one thing I‘m not your enemy at all.” Matthew raised his right hand
and shook his index finger. Then, he walked up to Johan and stood in front of him. “Don‘t you want to
find out who is the one who got you into such a fright?”
Suspicion arose in Johan the moment he heard Matthew‘s question. Frowning, he pondered inwardly
and remembered that while waiting for the checkup reports, he read through the news again. Just as
Matthew had said, the main focus should be on the news that Vivian contracted a disease and had sugar
daddies. However, as the incident developed, a few influencers who had huge fan bases exposed old
pictures of him and Vivian on social media. As such, he actually became the focus of public opinion
instead.
Most importantly, even the Anderson Family was made known to the news. It had only been a few hours
since the news was out, yet Faye had already sent Johan tens of messages to question him, which
made him frustrated.
To think about it, Johan thought it indeed seemed like someone was deliberately plotting this.
He lifted his eyes to glance at Matthew again. Narrowing his eyes, he asked tentatively as he roughly
had a guess, “Are you saying… it‘s Alexander?”
Matthew lifted his brows with a smile and said, “The Olson Family is also famous in the city. Besides
Alexander, who else could be this influential to be able to order around all the major media in the city at
the same time?”
“Why should I believe you?” Johan stared at Matthew dubiously.
“Of course you have to believe me.” Matthew stuck out his chest with confidence written across his face.
“An enemy‘s enemy is a friend, isn‘t that right?”
