Upon hearing the words, everyone looked at Bianca. Her expression turned serious, and after a moment, she focused on the waiter and said, “I’ll take care of it.”

The waiter replied, “Alright. Your total comes to one thousand. Will that be cash or card?”

Bianca paused; she definitely didn’t have that much in her card. Plus, she had no cash on her, leaving her in a tight spot.

“I only have one hundred left. If I give that to you, I won’t be able to get by for the next couple of days.”

“I only have one hundred too. Weren’t you the one who insisted on treating us? What’s going on now?”

Seeing the chill in her gaze, they tried to negotiate, “Bianca, you know our families aren’t rich.”
