“You pervert. I’m going to ignore you,” protested Lacey as she slapped Zeke’s hands away and turned around to leave.

Shoot, Lacey’s angry! Zeke quickly chased after her. “Okay, I’m sorry, Lacey. I had a nightmare. That was why I accidentally touched you.”

“You know what? I’m too busy to care. Get dressed. Nancy block-booked a Michelin-starred restaurant and invited us. She even specifically asked for you.”

“Huh? Why is she suddenly so nice and buying us dinner?” asked Zeke, who was stunned.

“She found her hero. I’m guessing she’s going to show him off in front of you.”

What the hell?

Zeke was even more surprised.

I am the hero who helped her.

Where the hell did that other hero come from?

F**k! Someone is impersonating me!

In that case, I must show up for dinner to expose that fake hero to prevent Nancy from being conned.

Despite his distaste for the woman, Nancy was still his wife’s BFF and was practically his in-law. He had to help her.

He was strategizing when his phone suddenly rang.

It was Evan Schneider.

“Mr. Williams, someone wants to block book the Michelin-starred restaurant you own. This has never happened before, so I called to ask your opinion on that matter.”

“The restaurant I own? When did I buy a restaurant?”

“Remember how my secretary accidentally bumped into you and made you drop the breakfast you got for Ms. Lacey? You saw the breakfast and thought it was pretty good, so you ordered me to buy the restaurant. You said you bought it so the head chef could personally prepare Ms. Lacey’s breakfasts.”

Zeke recalled that incident. “Oh yes, I think something like that happened. Tell me something. How many Michelin-starred restaurants are there in Oakheart City?”

“Just this one,” answered Evan.

Zeke nodded.

It seemed that the person who tried to block book the place was Nancy’s fake hero.

Zeke instructed, “The person who wants to block book the place is the one who wants to treat me to dinner. Empty the place, but tell the staff I booked the place, not him.”

“Understood,” replied Evan.

The only Michelin-starred restaurant in Oakheart City was strangely lively that day.

They hired about a hundred employees, and everyone stood by the door to greet the VIP.

The whole venue was booked, and that had never happened before.

After all, the restaurant did not allow it, no matter how much money was offered.

The person who did that must be extremely powerful.
