Mr. Bay thought about the dinner and immediately said, "Ms. Jane, you're an important patron to our association. Let us treat you to dinner tonight instead!"

Kathleen was well aware of the rules of socializing. One should be polite in accepting another's favor whenever required, but reject firmly if deemed inappropriate.

Using a dinner invitation as an example, if the other party was just extending the invite as a courtesy, one should politely thank their kindness and reject firmly. Then, both parties would be able to keep the exchange pleasant and end it happily. If the other party was sincere in the invitation, one would not need to be overly polite or worry about paying for the treat. To gladly accept the other party's invitation would be the greatest respect to the other party.

With that in mind, Kathleen replied with a sweet smile, "Mr. Bay, if you put it that way, I'll gladly accept your offer. I'm looking forward to it!"

Mr. Bay patted himself on the chest and said, "Leave it to us! I'll treat you to a nice dinner at the best restaurant here!"

Mr. Bay then turned to Jacob and said, "Hey, Jacob. You're close to Albert from The Heaven Springs, right?

Why don't you help me book a private room there? Let's hold a grand banquet for Ms. Jane tonight!"
