My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily Brooks and Loid Laurier)

Chapter 203

Nora chuckled at Lily's statement. She questioned, "Are you using your membership card for access? Think carefully. An ordinary member is only allowed to dine in the hall on the second floor. Are you sure you want to have dinner alone?"

Then, Nora smirked. "You should come with me. You're representing the Lauriers in public. Don't bring shame to Loid."

Yolanda sneered, "I don't understand why Lo would want to get engaged to a poor country bumpkin like you. What are you good at, and what can you bring to the table for Lo?

"Your presence at the restaurant signifies your social status. Using an ordinary membership card is not only embarrassing, but it'll even drag Lo to your level as well. I haven't seen anyone who behaves like you before."

The contempt and derision in her eyes were obvious.

Lily casually glanced at Yolanda before saying flatly, "How special is your diamond-tier membership, then, if you consider an ordinary membership embarrassing?"

"You—" Yolanda growled out the words, "At least a diamond-tier member can enjoy dinner in a private lounge while you can only have dinner at the hall on the second floor."

At that moment, Loid had wrapped up his call. When he approached Lily, he noticed the scowl on Yolanda's face. Eyes narrowed, he asked Yoland softly, "What's wrong?"

Nora quickly explained, "Nothing. We walked too fast and left Lily behind. I wanted to let her in with my membership card, but she insisted on using her ordinary membership card. I'm talking some sense into her."

She insinuated about Lily's lack of manners.

"Aunt Nora, since you forgot about Lily, you don't have to get her in. We'll flash our membership cards." Loid lowered his gaze onto Lily's expressionless face. His frigid voice sliced through the air like ice shards.

Nora's expression fell. "That won't work. I promised to treat you to dinner."

Before Loid could protest, Nora handed her membership card to the security guard. "They're with me."

The guard glanced at the card to ensure it was valid before gesturing at Loid and Lily. "Please."

Nora warmly grasped Lily's hand. "Let's head in. I'll stick closely to you so that you don't fall behind."

Lily looked at Nora with a smirk. Then, she withdrew her hand. "I don't need your help to access the restaurant."

After that, she fumbled around her black clutch and pulled out a black card, which she handed to the security guard. "Can I use this card?"Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"The premier diamond tier membership!" Gasping, the security guard nearly dropped the card in shock. He shot an apologetic look at Lily. "Pardon me. It was my mistake. Please enjoy your dinner on the top floor."

Loid's eyes wavered in shock when he set sight on the card. He pursed his lips. Lily had an array of unique and bizarre items in her often messy purse, but he never thought she'd be in possession of such a rare item.

He appeared to have underestimated her. She owned some life-saving pills, a limited-edition global black card, and the premier diamond tier membership of La Caprese. What other secrets was she hiding from him?

Nora, Yolanda, and the rest gaped at Lily in disbelief as they struggled to speak. Nora felt humiliated for having laughed at Lily's "ordinary membership" and was later proven wrong when Lily revealed her premier diamond membership.

Lily spun around and marched up to Nora with an amused expression. "Shall I invite you to dine at the top floor?"

At a loss for words, Nora could only muster an awkward smile.
