Chapter 189
The core leaders of Wind Pavilion would definitely treat a guest with the highest standard if the guest
had a white card.
This white card represented the highest-ranking membership in Wind Pavilion, which was far more
superior than the black-gold card Willie had, the most common membership card.
Seriously! Tom was once the core member of the Howards and the grandson of Anderson, the founder
of Wind Pavilion. How could Tom not rank high in Wind Pavilion? Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Standing behind and seeing that Willie was in an embarrassing situation, Tom hesitated in deciding to
stand out or not.
The manager's words made Willie speechless. If asked to buy the purple-gold membership with extra 5
million dollars, Willie couldn't possibly afford to do so. It was not the problem whether it was worth it or
not. Even if it was worth it, Willie couldn't afford it now. So at the moment, he was really regretful. If he
had known this, he would not have brought Phoebe to Wind Pavilion. In the end, he did not manage to
show off. Instead, he was humiliated!
"Well, Willie? Are you upgrading your membership?" The manager asked again. When faced with
Willie, the manager acted just out of professional courtesy, with nothing to do with respect.
Willie gritted his teeth and said, "You are discriminating us, as consumers. If it gets out, can you still run
business in Wind Pavilion?"
The smile on the manager's expression didn't change much. He still smiled and said politely, "Sir I
suggest you'd better not do this. You will gain nothing. This sudden upgrade has affected your mood.
It's our fault here. In order to make up for your loss, we Wind Pavilion can give you a full refund for free,
and we can also compensate you with two million dollars for your loss."
The more the manager said, the more humiliated Willie felt. Phoebe was getting impatient, and said
directly, "Willie, I think we should find another place to talk. We don't have to get in."
As she spoke, she turned around first...
As a result, she immediately saw the man standing behind her. In an instant, her body trembled
violently, and she instantly became very emotional.
It was Tom!
She only felt that she was hallucinating. How could she meet Tom in this place?
She was stunned for a moment and immediately tried to rob her eyes to see if she was really
hallucinating. When she opened her eyes again, she realized that she was right. The man standing in
front of her now was really Tom.
When Tom saw Phoebe suddenly turning around, his scalp went numb. But he was not as exciting as
Phoebe.
Now he was looking at Phoebe, and he realized that he still couldn't calm down...
Indeed, they were a couple who had been married for four years, so how could they just forget each
other easily? Tom was not some jerk.
Phoebe also felt complicated now. At the moment she saw Tom, a lot of things occurred to her. Her
mouth moved. She wanted to say a lot of things, but she couldn't say them out because it seemed that
there was nothing need to say. They had already divorced...
Willie had no choice but to follow Phoebe's idea and nod, "Well, it seems that this is the only way. We
do not have to should talk business in Wind Pavilion."
He also turned around and saw Phoebe looking at a man in front in a daze. That expression on her
face was clearly showing there was some story behind it.
All of a sudden, Willie narrowed his eyes and looked at Tom. When he realized that Tom was only
wearing ordinary clothes and looked very ordinary, not as a rich man, he lowered his guard.
"Phoebe, I know a place with quite a nice environment. It's suitable for us to talk business." Willie said
with a smile. There was no longer any embarrassment on his face. He was quite cheeky.
But Phoebe did not leave, as if she did not hear him. She still stood there and lowered her head.
Tom took a deep breath. Since he had already met her, there was no need for him to leave now.
Although they were was divorced, they could still be friends. There was no need to totally ruin their
relationship. So Tom reminded himself first, then strode over to Phoebe and smiled faintly.
"Hi, Phoebe, long time no see. How are you doing?" Tom spoke to Phoebe in a friendly tone. He had
good control of his tone, not too indifferent neither warm.
There was a smile on his face. But if looked carefully, people could still see the bitterness in his smile,
the sadness, and reluctance in his eyes...
Phoebe saw him coming over, and her expression again changed a little. In the end, after a few
seconds, she looked up and smiled, "Really? I'm fine. How about you? Are you okay?"
"Well, I'm fine too."
Anyone with a clear mind could tell that their conversation was not like casual chatting.
The secretary who was standing aside also changed expressions frequently, and her expression was
full of surprise and curiosity. Her eyes kept glancing at Tom. Obviously, she knew Tom and knew who
Tom was.
A simple greeting was then followed by an abnormal silence. Neither Phoebe nor Tom knew what to
say.
At this moment, Willie realized something was wrong. He sensed the atmosphere between Tom and
Phoebe, narrowed his eyes, and became extremely hostile to Tom!
In Willie's mind, Phoebe was already listed as his prey and must be hunted down. Tom's appearance
was the biggest threat to him.
Willie's eyes rolled around twice, and he was thinking of something quickly. After a few seconds, Willie
smiled and took the initiative to approach Phoebe. He asked with a smile, "Phoebe, who is this
gentleman?"
Willie's words broke the silence between the two of them. Phoebe looked up at Tom and her mouth
moved as if she was thinking of a word to describe Tom.
Was Tom her friend? It didn't seem accurate. Tom and Phoebe had never been friends before.
Should Phoebe say Tom was her ex-husband? It didn't sound good. Besides, Willie was just a partner
of hers. She didn't have to tell Willie about her private affairs.
What could he be? A colleague, classmate, relative?
For a moment, there seemed to be no word to describe him accurately, so Phoebe was troubled by
this.
Seeing that Phoebe hadn't answered for a long time, Willie knew what was going on generally. His
eyes flashed with gloom!
Needless to say, this man must be Phoebe's ex.
To be honest, Willie was not very happy. The thought of a woman like Phoebe, who was such a beauty,
had actually slept with another man before, made Willie extremely uncomfortable.
Of course, Willie couldn't show his emotion out. Instead, he smiled even more brightly. He reached out
his hand to Tom and said, "Hello, my name is Willie. I'm Phoebe's good friend."
He deliberately emphasized the word "good friend," and there was some mystery showed on his face.
How could Tom not feel Willie's hostility and provocation? To be honest, he was not very comfortable
either. No matter what, Phoebe was his ex-wife. It was not long after the divorce, and Phoebe had been
going out with another man...
Hey!
However, Phoebe was free to do so. And Tom, as her ex, was not in a position to complain about that.
so Tom had to suppress down the pain in his heart, smiled, and shake hands with Willie...
However, the moment Tom held Willie's hand, Tom felt a strong force coming from Willie's hand,
squeezing his fingers with the crack sound...
He was deliberately making things difficult for Tom. The thing now became interesting.
Tom snorted coldly and smiled meaningfully. Then he began to exert his strength...
