Chapter 244 States of Arrogance
One of the obese middle-aged ladies stood up, rushed over in a few steps, and pulled apart Samantha's hand that held her child's arm. Then, in a proud tone, she yelled, "Obviously, the waiter didn't hold the plate firmly. What's that got to do with my son? Besides, the kids are just playing around, what's the big deal? You're an adult bickering with kids, shouldn't you be embarrassed? So you got wet, did you lose your clothes? What's the big fuss? If you want money, just name your price, how much does your clothes cost?" When Samantha heard this, she was angered beyond words.
How could such an unreasonable person exist in the world! Obviously, she did not educate her children well, but she was so arrogant, and wanted to use money to resolve the situation.
In regards to money, was Samantha someone who was short of money?
This was blatantly shaming her.
But the lady did not seem to think that she was arrogant enough; she opened her wallet, pulled out a dozen bills, threw them on the table in front of Samantha, and boasted, "This money here is more than enough for you to buy another set of new clothes and for dry cleaning. So, shut your mouth, you don't have the right to discipline my children."
"You... how can you be unreasonable?"
Samantha pointed at this arrogant lady, and shook slightly with anger.
She had never seen such an unreasonable person.
Years of comfort in the upper-class lifestyle had dulled the sharp tongue she had in her youth, so to suddenly face such a barbaric woman caught Samantha off-guard for a while.
Seeing his mother bullied, Martin became cold and was about to stand up and fight for her. Joey, who was next to him, quickly stopped him and said, "Women's affairs will be resolved by women; you're a big man, it's not convenient for you to get involved."
After speaking, Joey picked up the cup of coffee in front of Martin. Then, she got up, walked around Samantha, and walked towards the prideful fat lady.
Looking at Joey hold a cup of coffee and coming towards her with a smile, the arrogant woman suddenly felt a pang in her heart, and took a few steps back subconsciously.
And her slender friend, who also felt something was amiss, quickly got up and tried to stand in front of the fat lady.
But Joey didn't even bother to look at her. She pushed that lady aside, then raised her right hand and emptied the coffee cup. Without a word, the coffee ran down like running water on the left shoulder of the fat lady. The brown coffee flowed down the fat lady's white skirt, and it stained the entire left half of her body in a moment.
Joey poured on slowly, without haste.
The fat lady could have easily avoided it, but she didn't, because she was dumbfounded.
Joey didn't say a word, but her cold, sharp stare seemed to have frozen the originally arrogant woman in place and made her forget to dodge.
After she poured the coffee, Joey picked up the dozen bills that the fat lady had thrown on the table before and handed them back to the fat lady. Then, she smiled but said coldly and sharply, "I'm sorry, I made your clothes dirty. This money here is more than enough for you to buy another set of new clothes and for dry cleaning."
"You, you, you...!"
It took a long time for the fat lady to recover from the pressure of Joey's powerful presence, and though her fat face became pale, she didn't know how to retaliate.
The fat lady had always prided herself in her arrogance and unreasonable attitude. Usually, as long as she used this trick, everyone became afraid of her. But today, she met someone who had even more arrogant and unreasonable. Truly, a master!
Did she want to spill coffee back? But seeing Joey was more than half of her height, she was at a disadvantage.
"What's about me?"
Joey stared back coldly and took a step closer. Then, as if she suddenly realized something, her face lit up as she said softly, "Oh, you don't want the money back, do you? That's fine, just as I came in the front door, I saw that the Hope Foundation is holding a fundraiser. So why not donate the money to them!"
As she spoke, she did not wait for the fat lady to respond, and she snapped her fingers at the waiter next to her. She put the money on the waiter's tray, and said with a smile, "Please help donate the money to the foundation, thank you!" "Okay!"
The waiter wasn't pleased with the fat lady's attitude either, so seeing Joey's retaliation, he immediately nodded with a big smile. Without waiting for the fat lady's reply, he took the money and headed off toward the entrance.
