Chapter160
Trevin’s eyes widened instantly, and he exclaimed, “Fifty thousand?”
He quickly opened the menu and looked for the page on beverages, but he didn’t see the mockery on Kimberly’s face.
I glanced at Kimberly and disliked her even more.
She was wealthy, but was it necessary for her to look down on poor people like that?
I said to Kimberly without much tone, “Thank you for Ms. Palmer’s kindness, but we can afford this meal ourselves. If there’s nothing else, please let Ms. Palmer move aside, she’s blocking my light.”
As soon as Trevin heard what I said, he became even more anxious.
He grabbed my arm anxiously and said, “We can’t afford to consume both the king crab and the red wine.”
I withdrew my arm and said lightly, “If you can’t afford it, don’t order those two items. There are many other dishes available…”
“Esmeralda…” Trevin said to me impatiently, “Why did you refuse when they kindly invited us? This king crab and this red wine, if we miss this opportunity, we may never get to taste them in our lifetime.”
Just then, the waiter came over.
Trevin didn’t care about me anymore and he said to the waiter, “I want a serving of this king crab, and also…”

He spoke and quickly flipped to the back.
got anxious, and he really wanted to order that fifty thousand worth of red wine.
I busily held down the menu and said to the waiter, “Cancel the emperor crab, we’ll order again.”
“Esmeralda!” Trevin looked at me in frustration.
At this moment, the waiter’s gaze towards me had already shown a hint of disdain.
Kimberly chuckled and said to the waiter, “It’s alright, we still want the Emperor crab, you can go ahead and prepare it.”
“Okay, please wait a moment.”
After the waiter left, Trevin finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was afraid that I would return the king crab.
Kimberly looked at me and said in a condescending tone, “It’s really okay, Ms. Duffy. This king crab, both Reynaldo and I almost vomited from eating it.”
Today we rarely meet, Reynaldo said to invite you all, after all, if you miss this opportunity, you may not have the chance to eat such good food again.
Trevin nodded with a silly smile.
I pulled my lips and said to Kimberly, “Back in the day, I wouldn’t even bother with this king crab in front of me. I didn’t expect Ms. Palmer to consider it a good thing.”
Kimberly’s face slightly changed, a flash of anger flickered in her eyes.

Trevin came over and whispered to me, “Esmeralda, why are you
bragging? We haven’t eaten it, we haven’t eaten it. When you brag like this, people can see through it at a glance. They might be laughing at you. in their hearts.”
At this moment, I didn’t want to talk to Trevin anymore.
I handed him the menu and said, “Take a look and see what else you want
to cat. You can order, but you are not allowed to order alcohol.”
“…Oh, oh.” Trevin took the menu and finally shut his mouth.
I watched the anger in Kimberly’s eyes with a faint smile.
Tell her to show off in front of me!
Just mocking people, who can’t do it!
Kimberly took a slight breath and smiled at me, saying, “Ms. Duffy also knew, that was in the past.”
I leaned back on the chair and casually said, “Whether it was in the past or not, I never cared for that thing, but in Ms. Palmer’s eyes, it’s different. That thing is considered good and valuable in Ms. Palmer’s eyes.”
As soon as I finished speaking, I felt a cold gaze shooting towards me.
I slowly raised my gaze and met Reynaldo’s icy stare head–on.
A sudden pang in the heart, it hurt a lot.
Look, Kimberly just mocked me like that, and he didn’t even react.
And all I did was retort a few words, and he looked at me with that kind of expression.
Ah, the difference between love and hate.
And so, he wanted me to go back.
Was it him who was sick, or was it me who couldn’t accept it? It really
was.
Kimberly
we treated you to this meal, so you don’t have to go out of your way to find a cheaper restaurant.”
this meiled at me reluctantly and said, “Anyway,
“Um, has Ms. Palmer finished speaking?”
“Please go
back after you finish speaking. I see that the dishes on your table have been ready for a long time. If you don’t go back soon, Ms. Palmer will have to eat cold food.”
Kimberly squinted at me and then turned around and left.
I furrowed my brow and stared at her back.
