Chapter 45
Elaine also noticed Matthew at this time. She froze for a moment, and then sneered, "Oh, isn't this Matthew? What are you doing here? Are you working as a valet?"
Next to Elaine was a man with a tattoo sleeve. He seemed about forty years old, and he had a shaved head. He wore a chunky gold chain, a big gold watch, and black sunglasses. He seemed like a thug at first glance. The man's name was Logan, nicknamed Mr. Logan.
Back in Matthew's schooling days, Logan would lurk around the school and blackmail the students. At that time, he claimed to be the boss in that area, who had relations with many of the female students. Elaine dated him when she was still studying. At that time, she relied on Logan's reputation to swagger before others in school.
After Matthew helped his classmate pass the love letter to Elaine, Logan's lackeys even came to teach Matthew a lesson. If it hadn't been for Julian Davis, Matthew's friend, Matthew would have been injured to the point where he wouldn't be able to attend school. To his surprise, Logan had become rich after so many years. He was even driving a BMW.
"Who is he?" Logan glanced at Matthew with an arrogant expression.
"He's the trash I told you about. He had a crush on me back when we were still in school." Elaine proudly said, "He wrote a love letter to me, but he didn't have the guts to put his name on it. Then, he even refused to admit that he was the one who wrote the letter. Plus, he kept peeking at me all day. How I wish to gouge his eyes out."
Matthew frowned, for he had never peeked at Elaine. This girl was clearly exaggerating the story!
"So that's the guy!" Logan suddenly smiled. He grabbed Elaine's slender waist with one hand and looked mockingly at Matthew. "Boy, I can't believe that a trash like you was fantasizing about dating a goddess like Elaine. Do you know how much money she spends on clothes and cosmetic products every month? Our expenses at the bar for one night exceeds your salary for one year. Yet, a useless pauper like you is thinking of dating her. You're unworthy of her." After Logan cursed at Matthew, his hands were still on Elaine's waist as he smiled. "Forget it, Elaine. Let's not bother getting upset over such lowly people. Let's go. Don't let this kind of garbage affect your mood!"
Elaine had a smug look on her face. "Matthew, stop following me around. You make me nauseous!"
Proudly, Elaine and Logan walked into the hotel next to him. With that, Matthew, who was scolded for no good reason, was infuriated. He looked up and realized that it was the Shanghai Nights restaurant.
Matthew had also heard of this eatery before. It was a very high-end place in Eastcliff. A meal there would cost two to three thousand per capita. He had never entered this diner previously, but at this juncture, he was truly angered. He thought about the card that Joseph gave him which contained tens of millions worth of credit.
Since they were flaunting their wealth and looking down on him, he had to make his move too. It was not like he was short of money anyway. He walked over with his head high, but to his surprise, when he arrived at the door, he was stopped by security.
"Sir, what are you doing?" The security guard was quite polite.
Matthew said, "I'd like to have my lunch here!"
"Sorry, our shop has rules that people who are shabbily dressed are not allowed to enter."
"How am I shabbily dressed?" Matthew was annoyed; it wasn't like he came here naked.
"I'm really sorry, but your attire is too casual. Please forgive us for not granting you access."
"Isn't he wearing casual clothing too?" Matthew pointed at Logan.
The security guard immediately explained, "Mr. Logan is different. He is a Gold Card member here!"
Matthew was annoyed. Why were there so many rules at a restaurant? "I just have to become a member, right? Tell me how much a membership costs. I will apply to become one now!" Matthew took out his wallet from his pocket and yelled while rummaging through it.
The security guard smiled. "Sir, not everyone can become a member. If you want to, you must first have two members to..." Suddenly, the security guard stopped talking when his eyes instantly brightened when he saw a black card in Matthew's wallet.
That was the Supreme Card given by Timothy Wayne!
