“We had to book this meal half a month in advance, and in the end, we didn’t even get to eat before we were kicked out. It’s so infuriating! Who on earth is so obnoxious? The moment he arrives, we have to leave, making us miss our meal.”
Garden Pavilion was reservation-only. They had booked the private room so far in advance specifically to celebrate Yvonne.
The moment that big shot arrived, they cleared the venue. It was truly detestable.
He didn’t get to eat, but he was full of suppressed anger. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
Perry glanced upstairs and suddenly saw Sean and Tracy standing together. He instantly understood everything.
He scoffed. “Look up there, and you’ll know what’s going on. Someone wants to use the Johnson family’s golden boy to embarrass us.”

Lincoln and the others couldn’t help but look up, and then they saw Tracy smile at them.
Chase gritted his teeth in anger. “So it was Tracy. How dare she toy with us like this? Isn’t she afraid we’ll completely blacklist her in the industry? She’s just a dog borrowing her master’s power. Does she think she’s safe just because she’s latched onto the Johnson family’s golden boy? Heh! With her orphan status, how could she possibly catch the eye of the Johnson family? She’ll definitely regret offending us like this.”
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. His fists were clenched, his eyes filled with indignation. He wanted to tear Tracy apart right now.
They had just been celebrating when someone suddenly rushed in, said a big shot was coming, and that they had to clear the venue.
And all of tonight’s expenses were comped.
While they were still confused, the waiter had already cleared away all the dishes and their things, forcing them to leave.
Later, he grabbed a waiter and asked, “Who exactly is coming that you have to clear the venue so suddenly?”
The waiter shook his head. “I don’t know either. I only know it seems Mr. Johnson is coming to eat. I don’t know anything else.”
He had been confused at the time. Sean was just coming to eat. Why did they need to clear the

Now he finally understood. It was Tracy pulling strings behind the scenes. That made sense.
This was clearly aimed at them.
But, precisely because of Sean, there was nothing they could do to Tracy.
It was infuriating.
Yvonne also saw Tracy and Sean. She was surprised at first, but quickly returned to normal.
It’s just a fleeting interest. It won’t last.
And by using this relationship, Tracy had completely offended them. Other than a moment of triumph, there was no benefit.
At this moment, the Garden Pavilion manager walked over and made a “please” gesture. “Please leave immediately.”
Watching them, clearly gritting their teeth in anger but unable to do anything, Tracy felt a great sense of relief.
Seeing them leave in resentment, Sean looked down at Tracy. “Feel better?”
Tracy nodded and looked up, meeting Sean’s gaze. “Yes. Sean, thank you.”
Sean stared at Tracy intently. “How are you going to thank me this time?”
Why does Sean ask her this every time he helps her?
This question is so awkward, okay?
Her brain was short-circuiting, like it couldn’t even think.
Sean suddenly leaned in close to Tracy. “Come home with me for dinner tomorrow night. My sister has mentioned you to my grandmother. The old lady really wants to meet you.”
“Huh?” Tracy’s eyes widened in surprise.
Is he taking her to meet his family? But are they in a relationship where they can meet families?
Just as she was agonizing over it, she heard Sean say again, “It’s just a meal. You don’t need to be
so nervous.”
His words were like a reassurance, calming her agitated heart considerably.

Tracy’s chaotic thoughts returned. She looked up at Sean. “I can agree to have a meal with your grandmother and deal with the elders on your side, but I have a condition.”
She would help him deal with his grandmother, so he should help her deal with her grandmother.
That way, neither of them owed the other. Each gets what they need. The idea felt perfect.
Sean tilted his chin, indicating for her to speak. “Go on.”
After some deliberation, Tracy said slowly, “I’ll help you deal with your grandmother. Can you help me deal with my grandmother?”
“My grandmother is sick. Her only wish is to see me happily settled. So I wanted to ask you help.”

Sean’s dark eyes flashed, revealing an imperceptible smile. “Alright. You set the time and place. Just let me know when.”
He agreed that easily? Could there be a catch?
Or maybe, when the time comes, he’ll find all sorts of excuses and not show up in the end.
Just like Chandler. He would always promise, but at the critical moment, he would stand her up.
