Wayne was aware that the waiter looked down on him, but he was in a hurry to look for Everly. He couldn't care less about the waiter's behavior at the moment.
"Do you have plain water? I'll have a bottle of water, then," said Wayne.
He had to drive a bit later, so he couldn't drink.
The waiter laughed at Wayne's words. People who ordered that were either so rich they had nothing to spend their money on or had never been to a bar before.
He printed the receipt and said, "Okay, that's fifty dollars. Cash or card?" "What? Fifty dollars for a bottle of water?" Wayne exclaimed. He'd always been a frugal person. Although his current monthly pay was equivalent to his yearly incback then, he remained frugal and wouldn't spend unnecessarily.

Anyone who wanted to enter the bar had to spend quite a fortune.
Wayne gritted his teeth as he took out his wallet. He asked, "Did you see a woman in a white dress just now? She chere with a man in a blue suit." The waiter had seen Everly and Marcus when they entered the bar just now. Marcus was super generous when it cto spending money.
Another waiter was quick enough to approach Marcus and lead him and Everly to a private room before the waiter who talked to Wayne did.
The commission for a bottle of water was rather high, so the waiter was quite pleased.
He answered, "They went to the second floor. Only members can access it, and only customers who spend a thousand dollars per day for three months can becmembers. You can't go upstairs after ordering just a bottle of water." Wayne furrowed his brows. Was this even a bar? This was a money extortion center! He failed to understand why the rich would chere for amusement. The thought that Everly chere with Marcus made Wayne pissed. How could she cto a place like this? Since Wayne couldn't go upstairs, he pocketed his wallet. He wasn't going to pay.
"I'm here to look for someone. I'm not here to indulge myself in whatever you people think is amusing. I'll be quick. I'll leave right after I find the person I'm looking for," he said.
"You can't!" The waiter frowned. He wasn't going to get any commission from Wayne like this. Displeased, he called for security and said, "Kick him out of here!" Just then, the doors were kicked open, and a man's light and indifferent voice filled the air.
"What's with the ruckus?" he said.
The waiter turned to see Nicholas and hurriedly said, "Welcome, Mr. Sanderson!" He lowered his head a little when he greeted Nicholas. Even the frown on his face when he faced Wayne just now had vanished without a trace.
Wayne, too, turned to see Nicholas walking into the bar with an arm around a woman's waist. A group of men-Nicholas' lackeys— with dyed hair followed him.
Nicholas was shocked to see Wayne there.

When they played basketball together back then, Wayne always refused when Nicholas invited him for a drink here.
"I dropped Hera off," said Wayne.
Nicholas' eyes lit up at the mention of her name.
"Where is she?" he asked, glancing around the bar.
Wayne didn't know which floor Hera had gone up to, but he wanted to go to the second floor, so he said, "The second floor." Without another word, Nicholas pushed away the woman beside him and placed an arm across Wayne's shoulders, saying, "Let's go, then." To the waiter, he said, "Wayne's with me." The woman beside Nicholas was at a loss for words. He tossed her away like a rag doll just like that! With Nicholas around, the waiter et didn't dare stop Wayne from going anywhere. Then, Nicholas, Wayne, and the group of men behind them headed to the second floor. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesAfter exiting the elevator, Nicholas asked, "Which room is Hera in?" "I don't know. She didn't tell me. She cstraight into this bar after parked the car," said Wayne. His expression seemed rather off" because he wasn't used to lying. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesNicholas, on the other hand, simply thought that Wayne didn't want to spit out the truth. He said, "That's okay. We'll take a look at every room on this floor." That said, he gestured for a waiter and ordered, "Send a bottle of wine to every room on this floor." Wayne's eyebrows shot up in astonishment. He remembered the numbers he saw on the menu just now.
"Why are you doing this?" he exclaimed in disbelief.
Did all the rich people spend money so extravagantly? Meanwhile, Nicholas didn't seem perturbed in the least. Nonchalantly, he said "It's not like I can't pay for the drinks. I'll pay for everyone's drinks if I can find Hera here Content belongs to en.kikistoriesUMS
