Keep your eyes peeled, you might want to get online if you come across it again.

Everyone in the restaurant understood that dining here was about more than just the cuisine.

Many came looking for the opportunity to close important deals.

Having a membership card meant having the necessary contacts.

Naturally, profit was the most important thing.

Therefore, everyone was eager to replace out if this woman was the real deal or just a suitor.

Allison, meanwhile, looked at Colton and Melany like simple buffoons, with her arms crossed, defiant.

.

I didn't want to make a fuss, but with clowns like you spoiling the mood, I'd better.

With a dismissive gesture, Allison walked over to the ID verification machine, pressing her hand against it.

The moment her fingerprint was scanned , the lights flickered dramatically.

The machine's screen flashed red and a cheerful AI voice announced: A warm welcome to black card user 001! The scene left the diners speechless.

There were only ten black cards in the entire world, and she was the first.

That meant she was probably a close confidant of the restaurant's enigmatic owner.

He attracts major financial giants to deal here, so his connections must be something more.

For her to have the black card 001 She must be someone notable.

Colton was the most nervous.

No… it can't be.

He had brought clients here with his silver card, obtaining countless benefits from it.

The reality of the situation hit him hard: he was completely out of his mind.

Never in his wildest dreams had Colton imagined that the woman he once called a housewife, orphan and without contacts, could maintain such ties with that man.

prestigious establishment.

He suddenly realized that he had never really met Allison.

Memories of the last few months passed through his mind like a movie.

He remembered Allison's calm, her meticulous work in the pottery, her youthful face lighting up as she made perfumes, her elegant hands fluttering among the instruments like butterflies.

From her eyes to her nose, she was the same woman he had shared three years with.

However, in that moment, Colton admitted that he had never really seen her.

Melany's face twisted in disbelief and jealousy.

Surely, Allison must have used some shady connection to get promoted! There was no other explanation.

Colton, my stomach hurts.

“We can go,” Melany whispered urgently.

She clutched at his hand, desperate to escape the humiliation.

The only thing he wanted was to disappear.

However, Colton remained motionless, absorbed in his thoughts, his hand limp.

Frustrated, Melany pleaded again, her voice tinged with desperation.

Colton, I told you my stomach hurts.

Can we go to the hospital, please? Still consumed by his memories, Colton unconsciously pushed her hand away.

He grabbed Allison's arm, unable to understand how he had been tricked.

Ceramics, perfume… I could blame it on my negligence.

But, you've been black carded at Jazmín Restaurant all the time.

You've been playing with me these last three years.

Allison also felt like she was seeing Colton for the first time.

With a cold smile, he pushed it away.

Colton, you've forgotten.

For three years, you and your mother told me that all you wanted was for me to be a good housewife.

Not once did you ask me for anything more.

I even offered to help you with your business.

What did you tell me then? Reflecting on that moment, Allison felt a mixture of anger and absurdity.

You told me you liked me better when I was obedient.

You said she was a pale imitation of Melany.

Judging by how you're completely ignoring your girlfriend's stomach ache just to confront me, I'd say you might still have feelings for me after all.

Colton's eyes widened for a brief moment before he glimpse of Allison's mocking smile.

Well, let's not go there, okay.

Honestly, I replace you repulsive.

Colton snapped: You! For an instant, his heart responded to her words, but his mind quickly took over, forcing him to wrap his feelings in coldness.

I just love Melany.

I could never love someone like you.
