Chapter 31\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna did not think much of it. That night, she was going to treat Michelle to a meal at a very popular restaurant. It was her way of thanking Michelle for letting her stay over for so many days.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michelle sat opposite her and looked at the menu. Her eyes rounded. \u201cThe food here is really expensive. People could easily pay up to a six-digit figure for a meal here. What\u2019s the occasion today?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna took a sip of the lemon water and said, \u201cYou can order whatever you want. It\u2019s on me today!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna was in a cheery mood since she had received 1.01 million dollars and performed pretty well during today\u2019s interview. She was so happy that she could even smile sweetly at a stranger.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Melody was an exception, of course.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As the two of them were chattering away, a soft voice interrupted their conversation. \u201cSienna, what a coincidence!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
They had no idea how long Melody had been standing next to their table. She looked weak and fragile wearing that white dress. \u201cWe\u2019ll have to wait at least two hours if we join the queue outside now. Is it alright if we share a table?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michelle slammed the menu down on the table. She remarked bluntly, \u201cHa! You\u2019re asking if you can share a table with us\u2026 Your skin must be as thick as these brick walls around us, huh?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Melody\u2019s expression hardened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna lifted her gaze and stared at Melody\u2019s clear, smooth forehead. \u201cYour wound healed pretty quickly, huh? Not only did your body recover quickly, but your ability to embarrass yourself had also improved.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Melody bit her lip. \u201cSienna, the evening gown\u2026 Did you do that on purpose?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo what if I did?\u201d Sienna crossed her arms and leaned against her seat. At the same time, she noticed Clayton was heading\u00a0<\/p>\n
this way.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clayton had obviously heard what she said. He had a stony look on his face. \u201cDidn\u2019t you keep insisting that you had nothing to do with it previously?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDid I really admit to it, though?\u201d Sienna raised her brows. There was a contemptuous look in her eyes. \u201c\u2018So what if I did\u2019 is a question and not a statement. You should go back and retake your grammar lessons if your grammar is bad, Mr. Hale.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright. You two shouldn\u2019t fight because of me. Sienna\u2026 she probably didn\u2019t do it on purpose. We should just let it slide.\u201d Melody tried to calm both sides down.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clayton sat right next to Sienna. \u201cShe\u2019s definitely done it on purpose. She\u2019s so stubborn and pig-headed.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Melody sat down in the remaining seat, filling the table.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDid I allow you two to sit here? How could you just go ahead and take these seats!\u201d Sienna glared at Clayton and Melody furiously.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michelle took Sienna\u2019s side, naturally. \u201cThat\u2019s right! Can\u2019t you see that this table is ours? If you\u2019re smart enough, you should get up and get lost!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clayton slowly lifted his gaze. \u201cCall the manager over if you want. We\u2019ll see whether it\u2019s you two or us who have to leave by then. You\u2019re going to get kicked out of here even if you cry and scream at the top of your lungs.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou think I won\u2019t do that?\u201d Sienna raised her hand and was about to call the manager over.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michelle quickly stopped her and said softly, \u201cIt\u2019s true. There\u2019s no use crying and screaming here. This restaurant is under the Hale Group. Didn\u2019t you know?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The restaurant manager wouldn\u2019t take their side. What was worse, he might even just kick them out of the restaurant.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Y CLOSE\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sienna stiffened slightly. She didn\u2019t expect she would coincidentally choose a restaurant that was owned by the Hale Group. After all, Sienna didn\u2019t know much about what kind of businesses the Hale Group owned and where they were located.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If she and Michelle were to leave now, Sienna felt like that would be exactly what Clayton and Melody wanted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sienna had come here for dinner. Why did she and Michelle have to be the ones to leave?\u00a0<\/p>\n
So, Sienna grabbed the menu and ordered almost everything. She even ordered two bottles of wine which cost half a million dollars each. \u201cI won\u2019t hold back since you offered to buy us dinner, Mr. Hale.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The bill came to two million dollars for dinner. They could use that amount of money to buy a house already.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Melody gasped when she saw the total. She was a little displeased. \u201cSienna, don\u2019t you think you\u2019ve ordered too much for today\u2019s dinner? Clay\u2019s money doesn\u2019t fall from the sky. There was no need to spend so much money for a meal, don\u2019t you think?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLast time, you said it\u2019s everyone\u2019s responsibility to protect and preserve our environment. Yet, how could you be so wasteful after saying that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, it can\u2019t be helped. Enna grew up being offered the best things in the world. The food and drinks she had were of the best quality.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michelle said in a slightly mocking tone, \u201cSome people must be green with envy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Melody fell silent and looked a little spiritless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
