Chapter 144 (Wanda's Embarrassment)

As Landry clocked everyone's expressions, his lips curved into a barely perceptible arc. "Although this meal today isn't that expensive, I know many of you are rather strapped for cash now. As long as you toast me, I'll foot the bill for you!"

After he had finished saying that, he shifted his gaze to Camilla and Landry, making sit abundantly clear that his words were meant for them.

"Wow, thank you, Landry! Let me be the first person to toast you!"

No sooner had his words rang out than someone picked up his wine glass and toasted the man.

Soon, everyone toasted him with toady grins on their faces. In the end, Camilla, Jacob, and Wanda were the only ones who hadn't done so.

"Aren't you going to toast Landry, Wanda?" Yasmine queried.

"I can afford to pay eight thousand."

Wanda's meaning was more than clear—she would rather pay out of her pocket than toast Landry.
