Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Young Madam, Watch Your Back!

Chloe Alden spent two hundred bucks to pay strangers to hold a spot in line for her until noon, and still hadn’t had lunch. She was already fuming inside, and who would have thought she’d witness such a thing!

Always a spoiled Eldest Miss Alden, she wasn’t one to consider consequences and practically lashed out at the staff instantly!

"What kind of crappy rules do you have at Splendid Pavilion? You tell me and Fiona no takeouts allowed, yet now you’re handing out food boxes to people. Do you always say one thing and do another?"

The waitress at the service desk glanced at Chloe Alden with some impatience.

"If you want to eat at our restaurant, you must follow the rules. It’s just business as usual!"

"You—"

Chloe Alden was so infuriated she almost spat blood, instinctively raising her hand to slap someone.

But in an instant, a sharp pain coursed through her wrist.

She looked up, only to see a tanned face, belonging to a tall man with ordinary and honest features, muscles knotting on his arm—a trained man, clearly.

"What, you wanna hit someone in front of all these people?"

"Let go of me!"

Her wrist pained her so much that Chloe was about to scream.

Meanwhile, Fiona Vaughn was shocked. She had seen this man before; it seemed like he was the driver who drove Cecilia Vaughn to school this morning!

A driver for Cecilia Vaughn was this unreasonable?

Did he even dare to bully the mayor’s daughter? So audacious!

Fiona’s thoughts went back and forth, and she quickly gave Wyatt Law a gentle smile.

"Aren’t you the driver who drove my sister this morning? You’re hurting Chloe; please let her go."

...

Wyatt Law glanced indifferently at Fiona Vaughn, releasing his grip on Chloe Alden’s wrist.

He was merely there to pick up a food box for the Young Madam, and unexpectedly encountered these two disgusting women!

Wyatt collected the food box and turned to leave, but Chloe Alden couldn’t handle such injustice and blocked his way, her face turning ashen.

"Stop right there! You’re being unreasonable! Apologize and leave that food box behind!"

She wanted to see just how fancy Cecilia Vaughn’s meal was!

She’d queued all morning and couldn’t eat it, but that little brat had someone deliver it!

Wyatt gave Chloe Alden a sarcastic smile.

"Eldest Miss Alden, aren’t you shameless? Why should our Young Madam’s food box be given to you?"

Chloe Alden nursed her sore wrist, her face flushing as she glared at Wyatt Law and the waitress at the service desk!

"Just because Splendid Pavilion can’t keep its word! If takeouts aren’t allowed, it should be the same for everyone! Since Splendid Pavilion deceived me, there should be compensation!"

The waitress gave Chloe Alden a cold yet flawless smile, bowing slightly.

"I’m sorry, ma’am, but our restaurant indeed doesn’t offer takeout services."

"However, these snacks are packed for the BOSS’s wife, not a customer, so if you have any objections, please carefully read our restaurant’s rules."

...

BOSS’s wife?!

Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn were both stunned.

Almost immediately, the scene from last time at the upscale shopping mall’s Patek Philippe counter came to their minds simultaneously.

The mall’s general manager, too, had bowed and scraped to that mysterious man, directly addressing Adrian Law as BOSS.

Could it be that the Splendid Pavilion was also Adrian Law’s property?

Who was this man really!

As both were lost in thought, Wyatt Law had already walked off into the distance.

The more Chloe Alden thought it over, the angrier she got!

How dare that woman, who had been violated by countless men in prison, be respectfully called BOSS’s wife?!

What kind of luck could she possibly have!

Chloe Alden slapped the service desk’s table with her ashen face, her expression nearly twisted.

"I don’t care about your BOSS’s wife! If your restaurant doesn’t allow takeouts, everyone should be treated the same!"

The waitress, seeing Chloe Alden causing such a scene, discarded her initial polite smile in exchange for sarcasm.

"Security! Get these troublemakers out of here!"

"You, you all—I’ll complain to the consumer association!"

Chloe Alden was almost bursting with rage.

The waitress ignored her, directly signaling the security guard.

"Quick, throw them out!"

Did this Eldest Miss Alden really think she was something special?

Did she actually dare to affront their Young Madam!

Did she know how precious the BOSS’s Young Madam was?

Not to mention, last time in the Splendid Pavilion’s kitchen, just a glimpse of the BOSS learning to make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall from the head chef, simply because the Young Madam liked it!

A woman the BOSS cared for so deeply shouldn’t be humiliated, she’s really asking for trouble!

...

In the end, Chloe Alden and Fiona Vaughn didn’t get to eat the snacks from Splendid Pavilion, instead leaving with a belly full of anger.

The two hurriedly found a random Cantonese restaurant for a meal, but felt it tasteless, nowhere near matching the Splendid Pavilion’s five-star chef!

Chloe Alden’s eyes blazed with anger.

"I just can’t swallow this! They dared to throw me out, surely under Cecilia Vaughn’s orders!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Fiona Vaughn felt equally disgruntled inside, but on the surface, she still composed herself.

"Forget it, Chloe, let’s go back to school."

...

Chloe Alden drove her Maserati towards Stellerton University, and as she passed the deserted southeast gate, she noticed the same low-key Volkswagen Phaeton from earlier!

Indeed, it was the car that picked up Cecilia Vaughn!

Chloe’s eyes suddenly brightened with a flash of dark hatred.

Fiona Vaughn, equally surprised, quickly scanned the area and soon locked eyes on those two people standing at the intersection not far away.

The tanned and ordinary-featured man was saying something to Cecilia Vaughn, when suddenly he handed over the red food box he was holding.

The things they couldn’t eat, Cecilia Vaughn could enjoy leisurely on campus!

Fiona Vaughn bit her silver teeth tightly, a shadow flitting across her starry eyes.

She glanced at the increasingly irate Chloe Alden beside her and suddenly had an idea, casually hinting.

"Chloe, so my sister is at the intersection; that’s a really dangerous spot..."

"What if a bus suddenly comes by? It wouldn’t be good if it hit someone."

...

Chloe was suddenly alarmed, yeah, Cecilia Vaughn really wasn’t afraid of death!

Standing at an intersection talking to someone! Surely, she considered her life worthless!

Chloe of course didn’t dare to drive over Cecilia Vaughn, but since Cecilia and that man were standing at the intersection, she could at least scare them!

Chloe completely missed the malice in Fiona’s eyes...

Resolving herself, she hit the gas and charged straight toward Cecilia Vaughn at the intersection!

...

Because her back was to the road, Cecilia Vaughn didn’t notice what was happening behind her.

Instead, Wyatt Law was the first to sense the danger. His brows furrowed, and he almost violently pushed Cecilia Vaughn aside.

"Young Madam, watch out behind you!—"

With a clatter, the red food box fell to the ground.

And Cecilia Vaughn, suddenly realizing the car-like beast bearing down on her, her face turned white!
