Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO’s Plaything - Chapter 774

After that, no more sound was heard except for the sound of car tires hitting the asphalt. The two of them still gripped each other’s hand tightly, while Oscar’s thumb occasionally stroked the back of Lisa’s palm.

Lisa furrowed her brows as she watched Oscar drive past the road they usually took to get home. The clock on the dashboard of the car showed it was half past eight in the evening.Usually, they were already home at this hour.

“Wait…” Lisa muttered, she turned and looked at Oscar with a confused look. “Where are we going? You took a turn earlier…”

“Should I let a woman who said she missed me wait in front of the office with an empty stomach?” Oscar asked back in a tone that sounded seductive, “Poor her. She must be starving for sure.”

Of course Lisa didn’t tell Oscar that she had been waiting for him at the coffee shop and accidentally saw Greta and his Uncle. So the woman had no other choice but to put on a surprised expression.

Lisa raised her eyebrows, “Where do you want to take me to eat?”

“You’ll know when we get there.” Oscar replied casually. This time, he let go of his grip on Lisa’s hand because his palm was starting to sweat.

About twenty minutes later, Oscar’s car pulled up in front of the restaurant entrance. The man unbuckled his seatbelt and hurriedly got to the door next to the driver’s seat. He opened Lisa’s door while holding out his right hand.

“Let’s go.”

When Lisa stepped on the ground, she turned and saw the restaurant. She didn’t know whether it was because the restaurant was too expensive that the restaurant looked deserted. As if no one except them visited there.

Judging from the interior of the restaurant, Lisa knew that the foods listed in the menu would be in the range of 500 thousand and above. There were absolutely no diners in the restaurant when Lisa and Oscar stepped inside. At the end of the room, there is a live band playing jazz songs.

As Lisa had imagined, the prices were out of her reach. She knows that Oscar is a rich man who is successful and certainly has no financial problems. It’s just that she is still not used to being invited to eat at expensive restaurants.

It turned out that the restaurant only served steak and a few other side dishes such as mashed potato, vegetable salad, mac and cheese, and seafood. Seeing a sirloin steak for 900 thousand alone made her eyes widen in shock. She couldn’t even grasp the idea of selling mac and cheese for 290 thousand!

Her monthly salary alone would not be enough to buy two servings of food at the restaurant!

“Why is it so quiet here?” Lisa asked as the restaurant clerk left to let them choose what menu they would choose.

Oscar tidied up his navy blue blazer and replied, “I’ve already rented the place.”

Hearing that made Lisa blink a few times, trying to understand Oscar’s words. Turns out the man had it all planned!

Seeing Lisa who had been silent all this time made Oscar laugh. The more confused and surprised she looked, the happier Oscar was. He decided to seduce the poor woman even more.

“Look… A steak for 900 thousand is not too expensive, right? This time, I chose a mediocre restaurant. After all, just take this as a light meal.” Oscar said with a straight face.

Even though Lisa knew she wasn’t going to be paying for dinner at that steakhouse, her heart felt like it was going to stop! It’s better for them to eat in a normal— mediocre restaurant that would cost 200 thousand for two servings of food!

Suddenly, Lisa got up from her chair and took her tote bag, “Are you crazy? For God’s sake, don’t waste your money just to eat here! It’s better if we eat at another restaurant that is not too expensive but still tastes good!”

Oscar raised his hand, called the waiter to order food, and ignored Lisa. The man thought that Lisa didn’t know what to order, so he decided to order food and drinks for the two of them.

“Oh and get me the 1982 Chateau Lafite.” Oscar said as he closed the menu book.

The waiter then took the menu book from the table and left.

Hearing Oscar order 1982 red wine made Lisa’s lips fall open. If it’s like this, the total cost to have dinner here will be more than she can ever afford! Her salary certainly can’t cover the costs they have to spend!

Until now, Lisa is still standing, carrying her tote bag. Luckily, the restaurant was deserted and there were only a few employees hanging around. If the restaurant is full of diners, Lisa could be the center of their attention.

“What are you doing?” Oscar teased with a big smile, “Sit down. Is the seat not soft enough?”

Hearing that made Lisa wake up from her daydream and slowly sit back down. She put her tote bag behind her and sat looking at Oscar in disbelief.

If Oscar just ordered them two servings of sirloin steak with a side dish, Lisa would be fine. But seeing him order a red wine at such an exorbitant price, her heart almost stopped!

Besides, eating expensive steaks should be accompanied by water, not red wine which costs more than the food they ordered!

“Oscar…” Lisa called softly. Her throat was now completely dry, “We… Do we really need to order some red wine? I mean, it’s better if we just drink water… I don’t like that type of red wine—”

Before Lisa could finish her word, Oscar interrupted her,” Did you ever tasted it?”

“Not yet.” Lisa answered.

“Then how do you know that you don’t like 1982 Chateau Lafite?”

“I…”

Of course Lisa had never tasted the red wine that was made in the 1900s. She had only ever seen commercials or foreign films in which the rich sipped their red wine gracefully in their silk bathrobe.

“I did all this because you were willing to wait for me to come out of the office and ask me to come home with you..” Oscar said while putting on a smile that looked sly like a fox. “Therefore, to make it worthwhile, I chose to eat here and I will have you pay the bill later!”
