Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 731

"Cough, cough..." Roseanne choked a little.

Listening to a good story over dinner only to suddenly become the center of attention is a strange feeling.

And not a particularly pleasant one.

"We're not a couple, but this meal's on the house for Mr. Sullivan," Roseanne grinned at the owner, "because I'm picking up the tab."

The owner looked surprised at first, then glanced knowingly at Corley: Well, well, looks like your luck's run out, buddy!

After they finished eating, Roseanne offered to pay the bill.

The owner pulled Corley aside and lowered his voice, "Man, you gotta step it up. Win her over, or next time you're on your own paying full price!”

Corley sighed, "You think I haven't tried?"

"Wow, so there's finally someone who can keep you in line. Impressive."

"Alright, let me help you out a bit."

Corley looked puzzled, "?"

Roseanne had already reached the counter, pulling out her phone to scan and pay.

After she settled the bill, she turned to Corley lagging behind, "Ready to go?" "Hold on a sec!" the owner interjected, walking over to the cash register with a grin, motioning for the staff to hand him something.

"...What?" the young woman behind the counter looked confused.

"The tickets."
