Lucas Did It on Purpose
Emily held back the urge to roll her eyes and said, “I have no intentions of becoming a stay-at -home
mom, even in the future, so let’s not waste each other’s time.”
Rob smirked and consoled her, “Don’t worry. I won’t mind if you become an old hag. It’s the inevitable
path for women. All of you turn ugly as you age.”
Offering Rob a fake smile, Chloe said, “Do you really think you’re being considerate?”
“Am I not?” Rob widened his mouth in surprise. “Which man wouldn’t like a young and pretty woman?
But I can control myself. It’s a matter of loyalty to the family.”
“No need for that. I make over six and a half grand a month, with additional bonuses at every month-
end. My annual income amounts to 78 thousand dollars. I won’t give up my job, and I don’t need
anyone to support me. Rob, let’s end our date here.”
Emily could not bear it any longer and had no desire to continue chatting with him. If it were not for her
mother and Rob’s parents knowing each other, she would have taught him how to behave properly.
The food arrived just then, but Rob did not look too pleased. “Sit down and eat. It’s fine if you don’t
want to give up your job, but you’ll have to use your salary to hire a nanny. My parents are getting old
and can’t look after the child.”
“And what about you? Where’s your money going?” Emily asked.
“I’m going to use it to support my parents,” Rob replied.
‘Your parents?’ Emily thought inwardly as she sneered, “So my salary will be used to raise our child?”
‘He expects me to bear him children with such an attitude? Dream on!’
Rob raised his chin arrogantly. “I’m a government employee, and after retirement, I’ll receive a
considerable pension. The entire family will rely on me.”
“You can’t afford to raise a child with three grand, let alone talk about the future. Moreover, you’ll
probably only live a few more years after retirement. At that rate, my friend will have to support you for
over forty years,” Chloe coolly chimed in, not bothering to hide her sarcasm.
“Emily and I are the ones on this blind date. You have no right to butt in.” Rob scowled at her.
Chloe innocently turned to Emily. “I’ll keep quiet then.”
Rob felt his pride had been insulted and his face turned pale. “I’ve made concessions again and again,
but you keep pushing it. It seems you’re not the kind of woman who genuinely wants to settle down.
There’s no need for us to continue this discussion.”
“Works perfectly fine for me. Waiter, please bring the bill,” Emily said. She did not want to
owe him anything.
“It’s just a meal. I’ll treat you ladies,” Rob insisted.
“Sir, the total is 1,500 dollars. How would you like to pay?” the waiter asked.
Rob’s face went pale. “These few dishes cost over 1,500? What is this daylight robbery?!”
That was half of his monthly salary!
The waiter smiled apologetically, “Sir, our prices are clearly displayed on the menu.”
Rob felt that he had been deceived. “Get your manager here. I want a word!”
“There’s no need to pay. The meal is on the house.” Lucas walked in and gestured toward the
restaurant entrance. “Our establishment is quite spacious, and you might have trouble finding your way
out. Let me have a server escort you.”
“I knew something wasn’t right with your prices. I’ll let it slide this time.” Rob did not realize the belittling
tone in Lucas’ words as he patted him on the shoulder. “Your service is decent. Keep up the good
work.”
Lucas smiled, pushing away Rob’s hand, “It’s not the pricing that’s the problem. It’s you.”
“What’s wrong with me?”
“You try to act rich when you don’t have the means. But in the end, you can’t pull it off because
your wallet can’t keep up,” Lucas said.
Rob was exposed, and after a moment of shock, a surge of immense anger overwhelmed him. As he
was about to erupt, Lucas called security, who promptly dragged him out.
Emily rolled her eyes and commented, “What kind of weirdo did my mom introduce me to?”
“Yeah. Not only is he broke, but he also looks like a toad,” Lucas muttered under his breath.
Chloe looked at them thoughtfully. Then she said, her tone firm, “Lucas, you deliberately allowed the
waiter to bring the bill to embarrass Rob, didn’t you?”
Though the resort was not exclusively owned by Joseph, he was at least a major shareholder. On top
of that, Lucas was always considerate. Whenever he was around, she never had to foot the bill.
