The Man’s Decree

Chapter 150 Avoid Paying

Lincoln felt relieved when he saw everyone drinking. Good! I can pay for the meal myself, but now that you all are drinking, we’d just split the bill on the liquor later! There’s no way I’d pay over a million on my own!

Assuming that Lincoln would pay for them, the others were all fawning over him.

“If it weren’t for you, Lincoln, I doubt I could ever have a taste of such good liquor!”

“Exactly! You’re awesome, Lincoln! A million really means nothing to you!”

“And then there’s Jared. Doesn’t he know how capable Lincoln is? How dare he compare himself to Lincoln?”

Jared was unfazed by those flatteries. Say whatever you want now because you’ll still have to fork out the money later.

In a blink of an eye, they finished all ten bottles of brandy. Some of them couldn’t even stand upright.

“All right. It’s time to go,” Jared said to Hilda.

Hilda nodded and helped Yolanda walk out of the room.

The others followed suit. Lincoln hurriedly caught up with them. He was eager to humiliate Jared in public. Let’s see how you are going to pay up!

“May I know how much we’ll have to pay?” Lincoln asked the cashier.

“Sir, your total bill is two million one hundred thousand,” the cashier answered promptly.

Lincoln nodded and took out his phone to split the bill. “Jared, we have a total of fourteen people here. Hence, it’d be a hundred and fifty thousand each. Since there are three of you, you’d have to pay four hundred and fifty thousand.”

“Four hundred and fifty thousand is nothing!” Jared chuckled.

“Drop your act, Jared. If so, then what are you waiting for? Pay up now!” Michelle said with a sarcastic tone.

“There’s no way he could pay! He’s just acting rich!” Yvonne added.

The rest of them were all waiting to see Jared make a fool of himself. Four hundred and fifty thousand was an enormous amount for a typical wage earner. Hence, they were sure that Jared wouldn’t have that amount of money.

Hilda stared at Jared nervously, as she had no money with her. How are we going to pay four hundred and fifty thousand now?

Yolanda, who had been silent, slowly raised her head and said, “I have two hundred thousand with me. Take it.”

Yolanda knew she shouldn’t let Jared pay for her. After all, she was the one who had insisted on bringing them along although she had never thought that things would end up that way.

Furthermore, she knew that Jared did not come from a well-off family and he had just gotten out of prison recently. Four hundred and fifty thousand must be an unimaginable amount for him!

“Yolanda, just how rich do you think you are? I’m sure you have to whore around for quite a few times to earn yourself two hundred thousand!” Michelle scoffed upon seeing that Yolanda was willing to fork up with her hard-earned money.

“How dare you?” Yolanda was extremely infuriated by Michelle’s degrading words. Suddenly, she felt lightheaded and immediately passed out.

“Yolanda! Yolanda!” Hilda held onto her and shouted.

Jared went toward Yolanda and checked her pulse. After knowing that she’d be fine, he turned toward Hilda and said, “Hilda, take her home. I’ll deal with them on my own.”

“But Jared, how about the money?” Hilda queried worriedly.

“Don’t worry about that. I have my ways. You should take her home now,” Jared answered with a straight face. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Hilda took a glance at Jared before shifting her gaze to the unconscious Yolanda. She had no choice but to leave Jared behind.

“Jared, now that the ladies are gone, are you going to go back on your words and leave without paying up?” Lincoln asked coldly.

Jared scoffed and continued, “I’ve got no bills to pay, though!”
