Chapter 1567


    Alma thought Nathan would get upset, humiliated, or even regret his past decisions.


    However, never in her wildest dreams did she think Nathan would keep his cool.


    Even when the hotel staff derided him, he remained unfazed.


    After hearing Nathan''s cool reply, Alma realized she had failed to provoke him.


    She was utterly frustrated by his reaction.


    Never mind if Nathan is still wealthy His family had chased him out ages ago. Look at his miserable


    self How dare he pretend to be calm in front of me?


    As Alma failed to anger Nathan, she changed her target to Kylie.


    She thought Kylie was Nathan''s wife.


    Giving Kylie the once-over, Alma scoffed inwardly. Only naive young girls like her would be tricked


    by Nathan. Those who are more experienced wouldn''t have married someone poor like Nathan.


    She greeted Kylie. “You must be Nathan''s wife. Hello, Mrs. Cross.”


    Nathan was taken aback by her sudden greeting.


    Blushing, Kylie hurriedly denied it. “No, he''s my cousin-inw.


    Oh? She isn''t Nathan''s wife?Tsk, I knew it. He can only afford to buy Marlboro now. There''s no way


    someone as pretty as this youngdy would marry him!


    Alma concluded Nathan''s wife must be an ugly hag.


    She couldn''t help but gloat at their misfortune. Serve you right for rejecting me back then. You must


    be full of regrets now.


    “Oh, so you''re Nathan''s cousin-inw,” she said cheekily. “Let me give you some advice. Don''t


    marry someone poor like him. Otherwise, you''ll suffer for the rest of your life.”


    “Look at him. I don''t think he can afford a meal here. The bill might cost more than half his annual


    sry,” she sneered.


    Nathan was in a good mood recently because Penny was pregnant.


    Hence, he ignored Alma''s taunts earlier.


    However, when Alma refused to stop mocking him, he grew increasingly displeased.


    “I''m sorry,” he uttered icily. “Let me repeat myself. I''m not here for lunch. I''m here to reserve the


    entire hotel to celebrate my wife''s birthday, which is tomorrow.”


    What?


    His deration made Alma and the other hotel staff dumbfounded.


    They immediately burst outughing.


    Alma tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and shot Nathan a grin. “Nathan, the Crescent Moon


    Hotel is new, so I don''t think you know us well. This is a five-star hotel. You need to reserve in


    advance if you wish to reserve the whole hotel. It will cost millions.”


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    She snickered. “You''re no longer the rich heir of the Cross family. Look, you can only afford


    Marlboro now. So stop pretending to be rich and treat your wife to some fast food. That suits you


    more.


    “Are you done with your nonsense?” Nathan responded indifferently.


    “I said, I want to reserve the whole hotel. If you can''t make a decision, I demand to see your


    superior."
