With an embarrassed expression on his face, Humpty said, “Gah, fine, I'll reload it now. You'll regret it this time.”

He directly reloaded a thousand dollars to his phone. “Look, I've reloaded one thousand. There won't be any outstanding bills this time.”

The crowd gasped.

Their monthly living expenses were only about 1,000 dollars, and they usually reloaded as little as 20 or 30 dollars to their phones at a time.

Yet, Humpty directly reloaded 1,000 dollars in one go. He's got deep pockets.

Humpty's phone rang as soon as his phone credit was reloaded.

His face clouded over right after he picked up his phone and looked at the caller ID.

F*ck, it's the director, Anderson Ford.

Is he really calling to fire me?

Is the one who spoke with Zeke on the phone just now really Anderson Ford?

No, it's impossible. It must be a coincidence.

He took a deep breath to calm himself before he answered the call. “Hello, director, what can I do for you?”

In an indifferent tone, Anderson said, “Humpty, I'm terminating your contract for our cafeteria. Come back now to pack up your stuff and get out of here! Also, I'll be investigating all the people you've hired. If I find out that there's a problem with their health certificates or food safety, I will hold you criminally liable.”

What?!

Humpty was astounded.

I-Is this because of Zeke?

No, there must be a misunderstanding!

Grasping at straws, he quickly said, “Mr. Ford, you can't fire me for no reason. At least give me a reason.”

“A reason? Is the reason of you offending my master, the owner of the hospital, good enough?!” Andersons snarled.

Immediately afterwards, Anderson hung up the phone.

It's confirmed!

It's confirmed now!

This young man is indeed the owner of the hospital and has the director as his apprentice!

Recalling their mockeries directed at him earlier, everyone became embarrassed.

Yet, they were baffled at the same time.

Why does this guy come here to have breakfast when he's so rich?

He's at best acting down-to-earth and low-key, and at worst being ostentatious.

The strongest reaction—among the people at the scene—came from Ruby.

She used to be the Chinese-language teacher of Zeke, so she knew him well.

Back then, he had lived under poor living conditions and performed poorly in school. He had even gone to jail after graduation.
