[Chapter 158]
Even David's aunt Diana's and uncle Leslie's families were shocked by what they saw, let alone Jude's family.
A Benz was already considered an extremely luxurious car in a place like Shu City.
They might not recognize Porsches or Ferraris, but they would definitely recognize a Benz or a BMW as these two brands were luxury cars ingrained in their mind.
They did not expect David to drive such a car over.
David's ability to buy a house in River City felt less unbelievable now.
"Get in, Aunt Diana!" David opened the door to the passenger seat for her.
"Dave! Is this your car?" Diana asked.
She still could not believe that David could afford such a luxury car.
"Yup!" David replied.
"How did you afford it?" "Don't worry about that, Aunt Diana.
Just get in first! I'll explain more when we get there.
Aunt Sally and her family already agreed to move to River City, so I arranged for your house to be in the same area.
Don't worry, I didn't do anything illegal!" David promised.
Diana did not ask more and got into the passenger seat of the Benz G-Class.
If David promised to explain later, then she would wait for him.
Still, she was indeed worried that David's money had come from illicit affairs.
Igniting the engine, he got ready to drive off
The couple stood awkwardly in place
They once had the right to sit in that car
David had already grown up
There was no point in persuading him
There was not even a three-star hotel in Shu City
"Dave! What are we doing here?" Diana asked
Everyone else looked at David as well
"Don't worry, Aunt Diana
Let me arrange everything," David assured
Once again, Diana did not protest
She was relieved to see that David had grown up and become successful.
David and the others had just entered the grand hall of Golden Leaf Hotel when the new hotel manager quickly came downstairs to welcome them.
She had just sent a group of VIPs to their rooms upstairs when she received notification of David's arrival.
Thus, she quickly rushed downstairs.
"Mr… Mr.Lidell! Welcome to Golden Leaf hotel! We've already prepared the dinner your preordered, please come with me!" The pretty manager told David.
She was about to give him the welcome of a chairman, but immediately changed her greeting to that of a mere patron when she met David's eyes.
David and the other followed the manager to a private room prepared especially for him.
The manager opened the door for them, and the others followed David inside.
Diana's and Jude's family were stunned by the view inside the private room.
The huge table before them was filled with exquisite delicacies, while the steam from the freshly cooked dishes filled the room.
The huge lobster and king crab were the most eye-catching dishes.
There were also all kinds of dishes that they did not recognize.
Everything looked delicious and much classier than what they would see on television.
Those two families were already starving to begin with, and they could not help but salivate at the food.
David pulled out a chair for Aunt Diana first before he ushered everyone else to sit.
Everyone still felt overly aware of their behavior after sitting.
They only grabbed their cutleries after David helped Diana to a few dishes and started eating himself.
Instead of eating, the youths; Jude, his cousin sister, and Judy, took their phones out to post a picture of the dishes on social media first.
They would not miss an opportunity like this to show off.
Soon later, their pictures received the exclamations of their friends.
There were all sorts of comments, mainly of envy or jealousy.
No one was able to reject such good food, except perhaps people with eating disorders.
The reactions of their friends thus satisfied their vain desires.
Judy's post consisted of a few pictures and the caption, "Enthusiastic hospitality from my cousin!" .
