Although the waitress had no idea what Reese was planning, the situation was

manager.
“Okay, I’ll go get the manager right away,” she nodded quickly.
As soon as the waitress left, a buzz of confusion arose among the gists, with some even approaching Reese directly.
“Reese, what do you need the manager for? Even if they come Keene, she’ll probably have a solution.”

Having married into wealth, she wasn’t exactly struggling to make ends meet.
But dropping that kind of cash would break the bank for the rest of us, just your average working stiffs.
Reese, on the other hand, was the picture of case.
“If I say I’m picking up the tab, then not a single person here needs to worry about paying,” she declared.
Integrity was her thing; if Reese said shed do something, she’d move heaven and Earth to make it happen.
“Keene, arms crossed and makeup perfect, was practically smirking with disbelief that Reese could pull off covering the bill.
“Sure, let’s wait and see the t
trick up your sleeve, Reese. But you’re stol looking good–maybe cozy up to the talk, and he might just let this bill slide.”
Reese shot a razor–sharp glance at Keene, a sly smile playing on her lips.

don’t want more of your dirty laundry aired out for our classmates to see, I suggest you zip it,” Reese warned.
Holly’s well–maintained face twisted with fury
“Enough bickering, let’s focus on dealing with this issue. And if it comes down to it, we’ll just have to bite the bullet,” Sofia pouted in resignation.
The waiter relayed the conundrum to the manager, who was furious, pearly at the point of flipping tables.
“What kind of people do this? Bringing a whole crowd to dine and dash…
calling the cops!”
“No, Manager, the lady said she needed to speak with you personally.
And why come to me if they can’t pay? You should be
Dressed in a business suit and hands on his hips, Seth stood confused before the waiter.
“Who’s looking for me?”
“She said her names Reese.”
Seth’s
‘s expression went from shock to a colorful array of emotions before slapping his thigh in realization.

you?“ He began toward the door before doubling back to ask the waiter, Y didn’t say anything to offend her, did you?”
The server shook his head, dumbfounded, “No.”
Seth exhaled in relief, “Thank goodness. We could’ve been out of job
The waiter was even more perplexed. The boss seemed delusional, treating a customer–and one attempting a dine–and–dash, no less–as if they were some kind of VIE
When Seth, all smiles, pushed open the private room door with the walter In tow, his face was hearing.
Especially upon seeing Reese, he was practically bowing down.
“Miss Brooks, what brings you to grace us with your presence today! Your visit is a true honor for our establishment.”
Seth’s warm welcome stunned the room, leaving everyone exchanging bewildered looks.
“What’s the deal? The manager’s actually called Reese, Miss Brooks?
“There’s no way that’s legit. How could Reese know the manager of the M Hotel?”
I doubt it’s a fake. Even hiring a stand–in on short notice takes time, and even if they pulled it off now, it’s pointless if we’re stuck here later, right?”
Reese nonchalantly accepted Seth’s greeting and gestured towards the group behind her.

“We’re having a class reunion today. Initially, this lady was supposed to cover the hill, but then she claimed she forgot her wallet/
Seth caught on immediately: “Ah, 1 get it, I get it. The ever generous Miss Brooks is a dime a dozen around here; we see it all the time, it’s not a big deal. If Miss Brooks graces us with her presence, our hotel’s good fortune. How could we even think of charging? Tonight, everyone’s meals are on the house.”
The crowd’s jawes dropped as if they could fit an entire egg in their outs.
“No way, comping us? Just like that, thousands of slollars, boom, on the house? ‘T
“Didn’t you hear? It’s all out of respect for Reese that we’re not being charged,”
This guy’s way too generous.”
“I don’t know, but I do know there are people who obviously have money yet refuse to fakers, never can tell who’s really loaded.”

“What’s the deal with Reese anyway?”
Keene glared at the speaker, “What nonsense are you spouting? It’s just a meal, a few thousand bucks–I could pay that easily. Didn‘ Reese offer to treat us all just moments ago?”
“Yeah, Reese seems pretty chill about it. Unlike some people who promise to treat then claim they’re broke at the last minute so embarrassing”
Keene was on the verge of exploding but had to keep her composure in front of so many people.

Reese didn’t want to waste h
of these people.
She’d come to see Keene seething with anger, powerless against her
Now that her goal was accomplished, there was no point in staying any longer.
“Well, now that everyone’s full, I’ll be heading out.”
Keene hurried over, instinctively trying to grab Reese but was met with such a chilling glare that her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly withdrew her hand.
What kind of look was that? It nearly scared her to death.
“I don’t like being touched,” Reese said, her voice as cold as ice.
Trying to maintain a smile, Keene pressed on, “I just wanted to see you off. You didn’t drive, did–you? Is your husband picking you up?”
That’s none of your business.”
“After all, we’re old classmates, and you did treat us to a meal. It’s only right for me to offer you a ride.”
Before Reese knew it, she was cornered by her classmates right at the hotel entrance, each one more insistent than the last about getting a glimpse of her husband.
The teasing grew louder: “We’re not letting you off the hook until we see your husband today, Reese!”

“Yeah, Reese.
you’re looking stunning these days. Your hubby must quite the catch. Even if he’s not rich, he’s gotta be handsome.
the laughter, Keene covered her mouth: “Just watch, the guy’s probably some kind of a wreck with a limp or missing an arm.
A chill flashed through Reese’s eyes as she swiftly grabbed Holly by the chin, her voice icy with warning.
“Say one more bad word about my husband, and I swear I’ll tear your mouth apart!”
Holly went pale, shaken by Reese’s fierce demeanor,
With a dismissive flick, Reese let go of her. Holly’s eyes bulged in shock; she rubbed her sore chin and snorted.
“Don’t tell me I hit the nail on the head.”
Just then, a red sports car rolled up smoothly. Reese didn’t pay it much mind, thinking it belonged to some diner, but when the driver stepped out, she froze.
