Chapter 218 A Restaurant Showdown Henry was shocked. He never thought Julia was so scheming. Clearly, when Julia had heard his status, her eyes had turned indifferent. It was obvious he wasn't even on Julia's radar. "I'm telling you, Julia..." "Enough! It's bad enough those women stir up trouble with Julia all the time. Where there are women, there's drama. You're a man-why are you bickering with a woman?" Gilbert hung up the phone right away. Sherry planned to go to that barbecue restaurant one last time. Only by facing the past squarely could she truly move forward.
This time, Sherry would never doubt herself again. She ordered a whole table of food.. She sat there and ate boldly. Only then did she realize-no one was staring at her. Even if they did, their eyes didn't hold pity. They probably just wondered: Could she finish all that food alone? "Boss, the usual table, please." A sweet but not cloying voice sounded. Sherry didn't even bat an eyelid when she heard it. She just kept grilling meat. "Sorry, Ms. Mack. The table you usually sit at is taken. I'll ask her to move right away." The boss walked over to Sherry. "I'm so sorry. Could you switch tables?
Don't worry I'll treat you to this meal." "No. I don't need your treat." That woman walked toward her table. "Here's ten thousand dollars. Take it and eat somewhere else." "Ten thousand dollars? Are you trying to buy me off like a beggar?" Sherry didn't know how rich Julia really was. But Gilbert had spent far more on her than Sherry could have imagined. 1/3 He'd poured so much money into her, and now she wanted to kick her out with just ten thousand dollars? Julia and the man beside her both froze. George's eyes turned cold. "It's you?

You should be grateful for ten thousand dollars." Clearly, in his mind, Sherry was still poor. Even Gilbert's old rivals knew she had no money. The only reason Gilbert didn't see it was because he was stupid and cruel-he didn't care about anyone but himself. Sherry hoped Melissa wouldn't regret her choice. She really didn't understand why Melissa had pinned her hopes on Gilbert. "Ten million dollars, and I'll move. Anything less, you can wait." Sherry calmly put more meat on the grill. The meat sizzled as it cooked.
If they had to wait, it would take hours after all, Sherry was alone with a whole table of food. She could eat slowly on purpose. George was filled with anger. If the restaurant wasn't so crowded, he would have slapped Sherry. "Sherry!" He spat the name through gritted teeth. He wanted to tear her apart. "It's okay," Julia said softly. "We can wait here. After all, she was here first. I have three hours off today anyway. No matter what, Sherry will finish eating in three hours. It's fine-I can wait." Then she sat there like a good girl, waiting.
She looked so sweet and innocent-not at all like the scheming woman she was. Julia was really smart. You knew her actions were those of a fake nice girl, but she acted so elegantly-she even fooled people who couldn't see through her. Some people even started feeling sorry for her. "Is that the new actress? Wow, she's even prettier in person!" "Yeah! Prettier than all the celebrities I've seen up close!" Julia heard them. She sat there and waved politely. "I'm here to eat with my childhood friend today. It's okay-you eat first. I'll wait. 2/3 "And here are two tickets.
You can come to the first showing when my movie comes out!" The two fans smiled and took the tickets excitedly. Such a down-to-earth celebrity warmed their hearts. Then they turned to Sherry. "Since you know each other, you could at least ask her to join you! Instead, you make her wait for hours? She only has three hours off. Can't you eat faster?" "Yeah! You're doing this on purpose. You deliberately took Ms. Mack's seat. And you ordered so much food alone. A normal person wouldn't order this much!" Sherry paused as she grilled meat. "Why don't you give your celebrity your seat?
Why make me-an outsider-move? Or does your celebrity have a private seat that only she can sit in? Can't she sit anywhere else?" "Why are you being so sharp-tongued? It's not a big deal. Do you have to make a fuss? Julia doesn't seem like that kind of person. Now I know where celebrity haters come from. It's people like you-overly dramatic and making up lies to slander her!" "Cut the crap. I paid to eat at this table. What's the problem? Are you guys looking for trouble?" Sherry glared at them.
Other people in the restaurant-those who didn't care about celebrities or drama-also couldn't stand it. "Are you guys out of your minds? There are other empty tables! Why make her 3/3 admin
