Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 166

Upon hearing this, the driver couldn't help but glance at me again. He remarked, "You're only in your first year of college, yet you can give your girlfriend that much pocket money? With your designer clothes, you must be from a wealthy family, right?"

Laura looked at me in surprise. "Didn't you say that your family sells fruits at a stall?"

"Well... it's a long story," I replied.

Sensing my discomfort, Felicia immediately nudged her mother's arm. "Mom, you just got here. Can you stop asking so many questions? Tonight, I'll be staying with you. We can chat then, and I'll explain everything. Don't make things difficult for William."

"Oh, okay. I won't ask anymore."

As we chatted, the car soon came to a stop.

When we got out, I looked up and was immediately stunned. I instinctively glanced back at Felicia. She was equally surprised.

The hotel in front of us wasn't just any hotel. It was the one where Felicia had worked before and where I had once dealt with a guy named Bob.

I remembered Bob was the one I had asked Victor to take care of. I heard he ended up working in a nightclub, cleaning toilets.

I never expected we would end up back here so soon.

"Let's go. It's fine," I reassured her, holding her hand as we entered the establishment together.

Inside, we found Louis and his group blocking the lobby, shouting, "Why can't we use the private room? There's clearly space available! Why are you so rigid? What's the harm in letting us use it?

"Don't tell me you're worried that the dishes we order won't be expensive enough? I'm telling you, I'm not short on money!"

As soon as the manager saw me, his eyes widened. "Yes... Yes..."

He seemed to have recognized me.

Last time, when the old manager slapped Felicia, Victor had him fired and hired this new one.

Upon recognizing me, he quickly said, "Of course. I'll make arrangements right away."

I wasn't concerned about Louis' group, but I couldn't let Laura, who had traveled far, suffer through a meal in discomfort.

"Alright. No problem! I'll take care of it right away!" He quickly grabbed his walkie-talkie. "Hello, urgent message. A VIP guest is coming to dine. Prepare the best private room and do it quickly! Get Billie and Quinn to help. No, get Clem to attend to them personally!"
