No longer a pushover

Chapter 548

Xenia smirked and said, "That's right, Noelle. L Bistro is a private club-only people with status and connections can dine here."

Cedric replied coldly, "It's just L Bistro. Is it really something to brag about?" Wyatt scoffed. "You talk big, but do you even have a membership?"

Cedric replied calmly, "No."

Did he need a membership? He was one of the restaurant's shareholders.

Xenia covered her mouth and giggled. "No membership means no entry. Noelle, why didn't you warn your boyfriend? This is so embarrassing!"

Before she could gloat any further, the restaurant manager rushed out with several staff members trailing behind him.

Xenia straightened her posture and strutted forward. "That must be Donovan's people, here to greet Wyatt and me."

After all, Donovan still felt guilty about Wyatt's accident-he would definitely do everything he could for him. However, the manager and his team walked straight past her. Without hesitation, he pushed Xenia aside while the rest of the staff lined up at the entrance as if preparing to welcome someone important.

Xenia stumbled and pouted at Wyatt. "Wyatt, that hurt!"

Wyatt immediately lost his temper and snapped at the manager. "Are you blind? Didn't you see someone standing here? Is this how Donovan told you to treat us?"

He had assumed, just like Xenia, that these people were here on Donovan's orders. Yet, the manager barely spared him a glance. With a flick of his wrist, two waiters promptly wheeled Wyatt-chair and all-off to the side.
