Chapter 153 Audacity

Out of a sudden, everyone realized that the question around Jared’s identity didn’t matter anymore. He

must be someone important. Otherwise, why would he have the privilege of having free meals at Glamor

Hotel? It seems like only he can help us.

Then everyone started gathering up around Jared and begged for his help.

“Please help us get out of this. After all, we’re Hilda’s friends!”

“We’re such a bunch of fools for believing in Lincoln and Michelle!”

“Lincoln is a fraud! We now know that he must’ve extorted the money from Hilda! No wonder she broke

up with him.”

“Please, Jared. I’m begging you!”

Jared stood up and took a glance at all of them. He grinned and exclaimed, “How audacious of all of you

to call yourselves Hilda’s friends! I can get all of you out of this with just one word. But that’s not what I’m

going to do. Every one of you deserves this!”

Upon hearing that, everyone was remorseful for what they had done.

“Bring them away!” Since Jared wasn’t going to help them, one of the staff at the payment counter gave

the order.

“Hey! No! Let me go…”

“Please help me!”

Some of them had even started sobbing when they were being brought away by force.

“Don’t touch me! I… I am a close friend of your boss’ daughter! If you touch me again, I’ll get her to fire

all of you!” Lincoln instinctively threatened the security guards.

Faced with the possibility of losing their livelihoods, the security guards stopped in their tracks. The staff

at the payment counter were also stunned. After all, they were the ones who gave the order.

Lincoln felt relieved after finding out that his threat worked. He then said arrogantly, “I’m a close friend of

Ms. Sullivan. Initially, I didn’t want to tell her that I was dining here. Otherwise, she’d have come with me.

But if you touch me again, you’ll leave me no choice! I can give her a call right now and get all of you

fired. Now, let me go and I’ll let it slide.”

Instantly, all the staff turned to look at Jared. They knew of the relationship between Jared and

Josephine. If Josephine was really a close friend of Lincoln, Jared would have known. Hence, they

wanted to find out if Lincoln was telling the truth.

Jared furrowed his brows. Just when he wanted to question Lincoln, a voice echoed through the lobby.

“So, you said you know Ms. Sullivan?”

The voice came from the entrance of the hotel. Jared turned around and saw Josephine walking through

the door.

While staring coldly at Josephine, Lincoln nodded and said, “Yes, I do. In fact, we’re close friends. We’d

always dine together!”

Upon hearing that, Josephine burst into laughter.

Jared, too, was laughing his head off. So Lincoln was bluffing! He almost got me there!

The hotel staff started chuckling among themselves as well. Josephine was right in front of him, and yet

Lincoln wasn’t even aware of who he was speaking to. Just a few seconds ago, he had even arrogantly

claimed that he was a close friend of Josephine.

“Hey, idiot! Do you know who the person standing right in front of you is?” Jared smiled mockingly.

Lincoln looked at Jared and felt uneasy, as though something embarrassing was about to happen to him.

As he was staring at Jared in puzzlement, the latter continued, “The person standing right in front of you

is Ms. Sullivan, your close friend!”

Suddenly, chuckles turned into waves of laughter. The staff couldn’t contain themselves any longer. On

the other hand, Lincoln wished that the ground would open up and swallow him whole.

“What are you doing here this late at night?” Jared asked Josephine.

“What else? I heard you were here, so I came to see you. I’ve also heard that you have a beautiful lady

accompanying you these days. You’re enjoying life, aren’t you?” Josephine was staring at Jared with a

hint of jealousy in her eyes.
