10:00 AM.
Connor arrived at New Century Restaurant at last.
It was not lunchtime yet, but the entrance of New Century Restaurant was already fully parked by luxury cars. Those coming here were mostly fashionably dressed young people. Connor was wearing new clothes today, but he still looked a bit out of place compared to those people frequenting the restaurant.
Connor went straight in as he came in front of the entrance. The security guard at the entrance was stunned for a second when he saw how Connor was dressed. He held up his hand to stop Connor with a frown. “Are you here to apply for a job? You should go in through the back door.”
“I’m not here to apply for a job. I’m here for lunch.” Connor glanced up at the security guard and replied expressionlessly.
“You are here for lunch?”
The security guard looked doubtful and said nothing when he heard what Connor said. He just let Connor in.
Most of the people who came to New Century Restaurant were rich kids, and there was no shortage of ordinary people, who were mostly friends of the rich kids. So, the security guard did not give it a second thought.
Connor was shocked to see the decoration inside the New Century Restaurant as he stepped in. The lobby was paved with milky white Italian marble, and the brilliant light of the crystal lighting reflecting off the pale gold wallpaper on the wall looked splendid.
There was also a bronze chandelier hanging from the ceiling. It looked luxurious and elegant. All doorpost frames and interior utensils were handmade. Connor felt that he had walked into a scene in the movie with all the wallpaper, chandeliers, high ceilings, and luxurious tableware. It felt so royal.
If Thomas had not made a reservation at this restaurant, Connor would have never come to a place like this in his life. This was the world of the rich, a paradise that the poor could never step into in their lifetime.
In the eyes of ordinary people, a place like Brasserie Le Bernardin was unattainable enough. But, Brasserie Le Bernardin looked like a little brother compared to the New Century Restaurant.
Connor pulled out his phone and wanted to call Thomas to ask where his reserved dining room was. But as soon as he took out his phone, he felt his stomach ache. So, he turned around and went into the toilet.
Even the toilet was spotless, beautiful, and cozy.
…
Meanwhile, in the private dining room.
The girl took out her mobile phone and glanced at the screen. It was ten. She could not help furrowing her brows. “What kind of person is your fiancé? Aren’t we supposed to meet at nine? It is already ten, and he hasn’t yet arrived.”
The girl in a business suit frowned but said nothing. Being late on the first date really disgusted her.
“You absolutely must not marry someone who comes late for a date like this.”
Countless rich kids in Porthampton are lining up to invite you to a meal, yet they never get a chance. But this guy has yet to show up.” The girl complained indignantly.
“Maybe something caused the delay,” the girl in a business suit whispered back.
