Chapter 797 The Outrageous Order
Marianne was equally unabashed; if Ryder wanted to pursue her daughter,
he needed to show some sincerity.
Ryder’s heart sank when he saw the women ordering so many dishes at
once. What if Emmanuel’s card can’t cover the expenses? I won’t be able to
afford the bill even if I sell my kidney!
“Ryder, don’t worry! We didn’t order that much. With you being such a high
roller, we won’t eat away all your money. Haha...” Abellyn looked at Ryder’s
expression and appeared as though she was having a blast.
After seven years of marriage, she was finally going to make him pay. She
would drain him of every last drop!
“Come, Robby, check out the children’s menu!” Abellyn handed the menu to
Robby and continued ordering random items.
Tommy hadn’t even had the chance to look at the menu yet!
Ryder was full of regret. How could he have been so foolish as to agree to
treat the Sheppard sisters to dinner?!

“Alright, we’re about done with the orders!” After Robby finished, Chloe finally
closed the menu.
Ryder thought it was finally over, but he couldn’t catch a break. Chloe smiled
and said, “Since it’s rare for us to be here, how can we not have some wine?
Right, Mrs. Franks?”
Marianne hadn’t expected Chloe to engage her in conversation. She nodded
instinctively. “Of course! How can we come to a place like this and just eat?”
Tia couldn’t help but look at Ryder with some concern after hearing her
mother’s words. She knew she wasn’t worth that much money, so why was

Ryder still tolerating this situation? Why wasn’t he breaking things off now
rather than facing humiliation later?
However, Ryder didn’t confront the situation. He discreetly messaged
Emmanuel, informing him of the current situation and reconfirming whether
the Black Card would indeed cover the expenses.
“Huh, let’s have five bottles of 1982 Lafite, then!” Chloe proceeded to order five
bottles of red wine in one go.
Chapter
Good Lord, the cost of wine alone might already amount to over 400,000!
Ryder’s face turned pale, and his teeth were grinding. Does Chloe Sheppard
think she could drink Lafite like beer?
Fortunately, he received a reply from Emmanuel right then.
4/5
‘Relax, Ryder. Just perform well in front of Tia and not worry about the money.
If you encounter any issues, just give me a call.
Even if Mackenzie’s Black Card failed, as long as Ryder called him, Emmanuel
could transfer money over immediately.
It would be absolutely foolproof!
Seeing this message, Ryder felt a little relieved. Following Emmanuel’s
instructions, he said to Tia and her mother, “Tia, Ms. Marianne, feel free to
order whatever you want. Don’t hold back!”
Marianne nodded and smiled, which made her seem somewhat satisfied
with the old man. Despite his unattractive appearance, he seemed more
reliable than men like longthan

Abellyn, witnessing this, clenched her teeth in frustration. She had planned to
flaunt her newly acquired one million in front of Ryder, but unexpectedly,
before she even had the chance, he had turned the tables and showed off to
her instead.
This is outrageous! You can keep pretending! I’ll see how you end up later!
Abellyn gritted her teeth and muttered to herself.
