As soon as Max heard Charlie’s words, he smiled before he said sarcastically, "Oh, Charlie you're really good at bragging!"
Charlie smiled faintly before he said, "What is there to brag about? If you don’t believe me, then we can both just pay one hundred thousand dollars in advance so we can spend two hundred thousand dollars for the dinner tonight. What do you think?"
After Max heard Charlie’s words, he said excitedly, "Is this true?”
Charlie took out his cell phone before he opened his mobile banking app as he told the waiter, "Come and scan the QR code for payment first." 8
When Max saw this, he really wanted to jump up in excitement!
He was originally planning to spend more money on the dinner tonight. After that, he would be able to claim more money when he was trying to claim reimbursement from his boss. However, his group of friends from the orphanage were really very pathetic. They kept making noise as he was ordering the dishes and they were really being very annoying. 1
However, Charlie was now willing to split the bill equally with him. Moreover, he was even willing to pay as much as one hundred thousand dollars! Wasn’t
he simply giving him money for free? 6
He would also be paying one hundred thousand dollars but he would be able to claim for a reimbursement of two hundred thousand dollars!
After he was done with this meal, he could go back and tell his boss that this meal was for a very big customer. Moreover, he could simply tell his boss that i t was possible for him to negotiate a sale of ten million dollars from this customer! His boss would definitely be more than willing to reimburse this amount of money to him. 2
He has already figured everything out. It was most important for him to stay alive! 2
First, he had to trick and cheat two of his friends who wanted his help to make more money. After that, he would return to the company and get the two hundred thousand dollar reimbursement from his company. That way, he would be able to resolve the issue with Jayden Marquez.
As for whether his boss would settle the score with him after, he would just worry about that later.
After all, Jayden was the biggest threat to him now. 5
At this time, Max hurriedly took out his cell phone as h e said to Charlie, "Okay then. Since you are so agreeable, then I shall also pay one hundred thousand dollars in advance!" 2
mouth was hanging open! 2
He was really worried earlier as he really did not want to spend so much money. However, he was about to enjoy a good meal worth two hundred thousand dollars that has already been paid for in advance. He did not even have to pay a single penny for this meal. Joey was so excited that he felt like going to the restroom to vomit out everything that he had eaten before this. 3
After emptying his stomach, he would be able to eat even more good food later. 6
Many of the pathetic jerks had this kind of similar mentality. If he had to spend his own money to do something, he would feel even more uncomfortable than when he was getting beaten up. However, if he did not have to spend any money on this matter, or if someone else was spending this money instead, he would be happier than anyone else. 6
To put it plainly, he was simply a freeloader. 4
Shortly after, the waiter served the lobster, abalone, and all sorts of other seafood. He even brought them a whole roasted suckling pig, which did not only exude a fragrant aroma but was also crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. 6
Joey frantically ate all of the good food that was served on the table as he desperately drank as much good champagne as he could.
