However, Don Albert’s arrangement for tonight’s dinner was so extremely lavish that Jacob was dumbfounded.
One serving of the best double-headed abalone for each of them cost 8,880 dollars per person, in addition to the black truffles, caviar, and other delicacies that could easily reach thousands of dollars for each serving.
He estimated that this dinner was worth at least two to three million!
Jacob had never eaten such an expensive meal in his entire life. He shivered in delight and said to Don Albert, “Mr. Rhodes, thank you so much for your hospitality! I really appreciate it!”
Don Albert smiled lightly, retrieved a business card from his pocket, and said as he handed it to Jacob, “Mr. Wilson, this is my name card, please keep it! Next time, if you’d like to come to Heaven Springs again, just give me a call and I’ll reserve the Diamond Suite for you right away.”
Jacob grinned as he held the business card like a child receiving a lollipop.
The people from the association witnessed the scene in amazement!
Jacob was really awesome! The infamous and almighty Don Albert was like a humble butler in front of him without the charisma of the king of the underworld.
Don Albert had not only served dishes and poured wine for them himself, but had even poured himself a glass of white wine, went to Jacob, and said respectfully, “Mr. Wilson, here’s to you!”
Flattered, Jacob immediately picked up his glass, clinked it against Don Albert’s glass, and drank the wine.
He couldn’t help sighing. “Wow, this wine is really smooth!”
Don Albert said with a smile, “This is a forty-year-old Chardonnay, which costs around six figures per bottle. Mr. Wilson, if you like it, drink more. I’ll have someone bring two more bottles to the room later!”
“Oh, Mr. Rhodes, thank you, you are too generous! I don’t know what to say!”
“Not a problem,” Don Albert said earnestly, “Master Wade is my honorable patron and you are his father-in-law. Of course, I have to treat you wholeheartedly in order to repay Master Wade’s kindness!”
Jacob sighed inside him, ‘Oh my god, how did Charlie fool the almighty Don Albert into becoming his lapdog?’
Never did he expect that Charlie, the useless existence, could be so good at fooling people…
The other diners at the table wanted to curry favor with Jacob as they saw how friendly and generous Don Albert was to Jacob.
Mr. Price held up his glass and said with a wide grin, “May I propose a toast? Wow, I really want to thank Jacob for such an extravagant dinner tonight! I’ve never eaten such a luxurious spread of food in my life! It’s an eye-opener!”
Then, he switched to a serious tone and started, “In addition, I’d like to welcome the new executive director of our association. Come, let us have a toast with Jacob Wilson, our new executive director!”
Exchanging tacit glances, the rest of the diners picked up their glasses and said with a smile, “Congratulations, Jacob! Cheers!”
Jacob gaped in shock upon hearing the announcement. “What, Mr. Price? Am I elected?”
“Of course!” Mr. Price stated, “Jacob, you are the new executive director!”
Jacob grinned gleefully and said, “Oh my god, thank you, Mr. Price! Thanks, guys! I swear I’ll do my best, continue to work hard, and make more contributions to our association!”
Everyone laughed flatteringly and brought up their glasses together.
When they were about to have a drink, the suite’s door was kicked open and a loud bang resonated!
