Chapter 175
After the waitress led Sebastian and his group to the Emperor Room, everyone was struck by its opulence. The room was reminiscent of a royal palace, dazzling with gold and splendor.
The paintings on the surrounding walls were all masterpieces. Each was valued at over ten million dollars.
The service was top-notch. Eight sexy waitresses in dresses attended to the group. They served tea, poured water, and gave massages.
Jordan enjoyed the service of the two most beautiful waitresses for himself. This royal indulgence made him feel pleased.
In fact, his gold membership card wasn't his own. He'd stolen it from his grandfather. He'd only been to Misty Oak Hotel once before with his grandfather.
At the time, they had only been allowed into the VIP room. Jordan had never experienced such high-level treatment before.
Sebastian stepped out of the restroom. On his return, he bumped into Joseph's daughter, Zia Quirrel, who was on her way to the Emperor Room. "Greetings, Supreme One!" Upon seeing Sebastian, Zia hurriedly bowed deeply.
"Let's dispense with these formalities in the future," Sebastian instructed. "When outside, just call me 'Mr. Wilder' to avoid revealing my identity." "Yes, Mr. Wilder," Zia responded. "My father had to travel out of town on urgent business and couldn't make it. He specifically asked me to attend to you personally and to present you with a bottle of Emperor Cognac."
Zia held up the wine bottle. It was not made of ordinary porcelain but steel.
It was engraved with intricate, ancient patterns-dragons soared, and phoenixes danced on it. It carried a heavy scent of history and appeared quite aged.
"Your father bought this bottle of wine at an auction, didn't he?" Sebastian said while taking the bottle.
Sebastian knew this because his mentor had brewed the wine. Only a dozen bottles had ever been sold.
The Emperor Cognac was not only richly aromatic but also deeply satisfying. It was also reputed to have life-extending properties.
Most people would hesitate to drink it even after purchasing it. They preferred to keep it as a collector's item. Occasionally, it appeared at auctions.
"Yes, that's right." Zia nodded. "My
father bought it last year at an auction in Devilir for two billion dollars. He's been too reluctant to open it until today. It's been specially reserved for you."
"You're very thoughtful," Sebastian remarked. "But I can take the wine in myself. There's no need for you to come along."
Zia said, "Mr. Wilder, I'll be at the hotel all day. If there's anything you need, just let me know. Here's my business card."
Zia offered her card with both hands. Her position was listed as General Manager of Misty Oak Hotel.
She was in her 20s. She was a tall, fair-skinned, beautiful woman. She was also the heiress of the Quirrel family. Any other man would be thrilled to receive her business card.
However, Sebastian accepted it without a glance. He casually placed it in his pocket.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Zia wasn't offended. In fact, she was thrilled that Sebastian had accepted her card. She considered it an honor.
Sebastian returned to the Emperor Room with the wine. Lyra curiously asked, "Sebastian, what are you holding?"
"It's wine."
"Where did you get this in the hotel?" Jordan asked. "You didn't steal it, did you?"
"I just met a friend outside," Sebastian explained. "They gave it to me."
Of course, he wasn't explaining for Jordan but for Lyra.
"Why does an ordinary man like you have friends in Misty Oak Hotel?" Jordan joked.
Lyra scoffed. "Don't listen to his nonsense. What friend? It must be one of the staff here. This wine must
have been meant for Mr. Hunter, and
this guy just took it to unter, and
show off."
"That must be it," Belinda said. "Mr. Mr Hunter is a super VIP here. It makes sense that they'd send him a bottle of wine. Hand it over quickly df you drop it, can you afford to pay for it?"
As she spoke, Belinda snatched the bottle of Emperor Cognac from Sebastian's hand.
