Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Roseanne quickly took her arm, "We don't get out much, so of course, I want to treat you to something special."

Madge managed a smile, no longer feeling down.

Norris, on the other hand, nearly jumped out of his seat when he saw the menu upon entering.

"Are you kidding me... The cheapest steak is over a hundred bucks?"

Roseanne quickly soothed him, "Don't worry, I've got a membership card for a discount."

"Oh, well, that's better then..." He settled back down, taking a sip of his lemon water before asking, "What kind of discount are we talking?"

Roseanne said, "5% off."

Norris nearly choked on his water.

"Dad! Mind your manners! Remember, we're all about class here!"

Leda was already in stitches by the side, laughing uncontrollably.

When the food finally arrived and they tasted it, Norris had to admit, the price was justified by the quality.

On the other side, Maisie and her son had settled for a quick bite at the museum's café, which was neither satisfying nor tasty.

After leaving, she gave Farley a look, and he seized the moment to declare, "I want to dine at a fancy Western restaurant! The priciest and most upscale one! Don't you dare try to skimp on me, or else, we're moving to another place." Beverley sighed internally, really wishing she could disappear.
