Chapter 1192 The place Jameson picked for dinner was one of the most well known upscale restaurants in Blumedale The Palace.
"Andy, you might not know this, but around here, this spot is top-tier,"" Jameson said as he adjusted his tailored suit and smiled.
He added, "It's not like I'm trying to flaunt my wealth or anything.
But sometimes, even if you don't care for appearances, you've still got to show up with style!" Andrew chuckled and replied, "Mr.
Rhodes, I get what you're saying." Tiana spoke up coolly, "Jameson, no need to put on this kind of show in front of Andrew.
Otherwise, you'll just end up looking ridiculous.
This guy probably poops in places you haven't even dreamed of stepping into." Jameson froze for a second, clearly shocked.
"Well now, Tiana, you're really singing Andy's praises today.
Could it be...
the classic case of amother-in-law who's starting to really like her son-in- law?" Tiana gave a snort.
"This has nothing to do with liking him.
I'm just telling the truth." Andrew was, after all, the Dragon Prince of the Lloyd family, descended from the royal Lloyd bloodline in Holtrien.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHence, he ---- would likely have been born with a silver spoon, pampered from the start, with the world at his feet.
So, hearing Jameson talk about how top-tier! The Palace was just made Tiana feel a bit annoyed.
Sure, The Palace was a big deal in Blumedale, but it was probably just another average night out to Andrew. Jameson gave Andrew a grin and said, "Andy, Tiana used to be real critical of you.
But look at her nowcompletely turned around.
She's backing you at every turn.
Not bad, not bad! In our family, once you win over Tiana, you've basically won it all.
You're moving fast, kid!" Andrew's face twitched a little.
He really wanted to tell Jameson to please never use the phrase 'won over' againit just sounded way too suggestive.
As he lifted his head, he caught Tiana looking at him with a sly, unreadable smirk.
He quickly cleared his throat and looked away, pretending not to notice.
In his mind, though, he was cursing this crazy woman.
He had no idea what she was plotting.
If she ever dared entertain any sort of twisted idea, Andrew would crush it without hesitation, right from the start.
The restaurant's guest manager, Justin McGrath, approached them with a broad smile.
"Mr.
Rhodes, welcome! The Moonlight Court private dining room is ready and waiting." Jameson frowned.
"Mr.
McGrath, I think there's a mistake.
I ---- booked the 'Celestial Suite'the highest-tier room, not Moonlight Court." Justin looked uncomfortable. "You're right, Mr.
Rhodes.
You did reserve the Celestial Suite, but unfortunately, it's already been taken by another party.
"So I'm sorry, but we've arranged for you to dine in Moonlight Court insteadit's still an excellent space!" Before Jameson could respond, Tiana snapped coldly, "We booked it first, which means tonight, we're dining in the Celestial Suite, no question.
Who took our spot? Go tell them to get out." Justin forced a smile.
"Please don't make things hard on me, Mrs.
Rhodes.
Yes, your family made the reservation first, but the guests who took it are from the Hopkins family.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd the Hopkins...
well, I'm really not in a position to offend them." Tiana let out a sharp laugh.
"So what, the Rhodes family is easy to step on?" Justin did not say anythinghe just laughed awkwardly twice.
However, the message was clear: The Palace would rather upset the Rhodes family than cross the Hopkins. Everyone knew why.
The Hopkins was far more powerful than the Rhodes, and it made sense to avoid offending the bigger player. Jameson kept his tone calm.
"Let's go, Tiana.
Andy, we'll eat somewhere else.
The Rhodes might be new in Blumedale and still growing, but we're not without our pride." Andrew En nodded. "I agree, Mr.
Rhodes.
Blumedale's a big city.
No reason we have to eat here.
However, Tiana clearly did not share their take.
She looked Justin dead in the eyes and said coldly, "What if I insist on dining in the Celestial Suite tonight?" Her personality was the complete opposite of Jameson's. Where he was warm and composed, she was all fire and fury.
