Sienna interrupted the moment , raising her phone .

“ Excuse me , where is paying ? I will cover it .”

Hearing his agreement .

Sienna brightened instantly , failing to catch the faint trace of irony in his voice .

“ George , are we paying or not !”

“This way please ,” George replied , still slightly bewildered .

“ Will that be cash or card ? ” George asked .

“ Card Sienna replied promptly .

“ Got it , ” George said .

“ Now , the original price for this toy is 13,000 dollars .
