Chapter 82 Being Tricked by Him

After dropping off the little guy, Freya looked up at the man beside her and asked, "Where do you want to have breakfast?"

She didn't forget to treat him to breakfast for a month.

"Let's go to the one we went to yesterday." Austin said, a complex look flashing in his eyes.

Freya subconsciously hugged her purse tightly. The one from yesterday? It was ridiculously expensive.

"Alright then! Let's go!" Freya affected a smile that seemed a bit unnatural.

It would be best if he only wanted to eat there this morning. From tomorrow on, she'd better choose somewhere else! Otherwise, she would be broke sooner or later.

In a fancy breakfast restaurant.

Even during breakfast, the restaurant offered a wide range of nutritious meals just for breakfast that were priced more than twenty times higher than the small shops outside. It was where only the wealthy would dine, emphasizing cleanliness, nutrition, and deliciousness.

Even a plate of four shrimp balls would cost over a hundred bucks.

Freya felt a wave of unease as she looked through the menu, hoping that the man across from her wouldn't have a voracious appetite today.

Freya ordered her meal and handed the menu to Austin. After taking it, Austin scrutinized it with narrowed eyes.

The waiter stood by attentively, immediately recording whichever dish Austin's finger pointed to. Freya had no idea what he had ordered and then the waiter took away the menu.

"Are you done ordering?"

"Yes!" Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Freya picked up her cup and looked out at the view of the nearby building. Suddenly, she realized that she could see the building of the Dawson Group from this direction, and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.

Austin's gaze was sharp as a knife, naturally catching her expression. It seemed that she hated Edgar to the core.

However, the deeper her hatred, the more it proved that they had loved each other deeply in the past. Otherwise, given her personality, she wouldn't have easily chosen to marry someone. Thinking of that, Austin's gaze dimmed slightly.

He thought about the six months of her married life with Edgar. It must have been filled with romance and affectionate displays!

Even though he knew he couldn't be involved in her past, the mere thought of that made him fretful, wanting to ruin something.

Freya suppressed the resentment surging up inside her, lifted the delicate cup, and took a sip of tea. It was then that the dishes started to serve. When a bowl of bird's nest was placed in front of her, she couldn't help but raise her head in surprise, saying, "I didn't order it."

"The gentleman over there ordered it," the waiter explained with a sweet smile.

Freya looked at Austin and asked, "Why did you order it?"

"I noticed that you enjoyed drinking it yesterday, so I ordered it. What's wrong?" Austin raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Freya pouted, swallowing her bitterness. "I do like it!"

Subsequently, dishes kept arriving, with more than a dozen varieties, and all of them were unfamiliar to Freya, exquisitely presented but in small portions.

Caviar? Could it be the most expensive black caviar?

Freya had limited exposure, so she couldn't fully identify the breakfast varieties. However, she had a sense of foreboding that this meal would be quite expensive.

"Sir, your coffee," the waiter brought him a cup of rich and flavorful black coffee.

Finally, the breakfast was complete.

Since they had ordered it, they had to eat it anyway; otherwise, it would be a waste.

Austin had a hint of a sinister smile in his eyes. He ate with elegance, exuding an aristocratic and regal aura. Freya tried to slow down and thoroughly enjoyed the delicious breakfast offered here.

After spending an hour on breakfast, Freya finally felt full. She put down her chopsticks and gestured to a waiter, saying, "Check, please!"

Austin elegantly wiped the corner of his sensual mouth with a napkin. Hidden beneath the napkin, a mischievous smile played on his lips as if he were enjoying the show.

"Excuse me, miss. The total bill for your table amounts to two hundred and seventy-nine thousand dollars," the waiter said.

Freya was ready to swipe her card, but as soon as she heard the price, her mind buzzed and her hand froze in mid-air. She widened her eyes and stammered, "What? Could you... Could you say that again?"

The waiter smiled patiently and repeated, "Miss, the total bill for your table amounts to two hundred and seventy-nine thousand dollars."

Austin's smile at the corner of his mouth almost couldn't be concealed anymore, but he remained calm, enjoying the rich expressions on Freya's face.

"How can it be so expensive?" Freya couldn't help but ask. Was this breakfast made of gold? Even gold wasn't that expensive!

"Well, miss, that's indeed the price. If you have any doubts..."

"Freya, there's no mistake." Austin's low and magnetic voice rang out.

Freya turned her head to look at the man opposite her, feeling dizzy. "How can it be so expensive?"

"Because I ordered the most expensive ingredients available in this restaurant, so it is reasonable that the price is high," Austin explained in a leisurely manner.

After hearing that, Freya's mind went blank for a few seconds. She instantly felt like she had been tricked by this guy sitting across from her.

After all, not everyone was the richest person in the world! She was just an ordinary person and could easily get breakfast for just a few bucks. But for him, it turned into at least two hundred thousand.

"I should have reminded you to bring enough money," the man spoke calmly as if his only mistake was not reminding her.

Freya felt that it was all her fault. She was too naive. She should have known that this guy wasn't someone who could be easily dealt with.

"Miss, would you like to pay in cash or by card?" the waiter asked her patiently. If not for the presence of Austin, he wouldn't have the patience to serve her like this.

It was well known that the people who dared to come here for consumption were all wealthy individuals.

Freya was in trouble now. She didn't have enough cash, and her card balance was also insufficient! Even if she had a card with a balance of five hundred thousand, she kept it at home and didn't dare to bring it out.

"I..." Freya's pretty face turned red as blood.

Austin reached into his pocket, took out his wallet, and pulled out a card from it. "Use mine."

"How can I let you pay? We agreed that I would treat you," Freya felt completely embarrassed.

"Never mind. How about we change the way of your repayment?"

"Huh? Really? What else can I do to repay you?" Freya thought that if he continued to eat like this every day, how could she afford it? Even one meal would be difficult for her.

"Then let's exchange a month of breakfast for a month of good morning kisses and goodnight kisses. How about that?" Austin's thin lips uttered seductively.

Freya was about to take a sip of tea to calm herself down. With a "pop" sound, she sprayed a mouthful of tea onto the empty plate in front of her, with a few drops splashing onto the handsome face of the man across from her.

Austin furrowed his brows and picked up a tissue to gently clean himself and narrowed his eyes as he looked at the awkward woman wiping her mouth. "Is there a need to react so dramatically?"

"No, no way," Freya shook her head.

"I haven't finished yet," Austin smiled, his lips curling up. "And I'm not referring to a kiss on the cheek; I mean a kiss on the lips."
