1191 King’s Room
Just as everyone was staring at Lucas in shock and wondering what his background was, Silas suddenly laughed, stepped forward, and said to the manager, “Mr. Frey, you don’t have to be so formal!”
The manager suddenly looked up at Silas, feeling bewildered.
He wasn’t talking to him. Why did he come over?
But considering that Silas was Lucas’s friend, the manager thought that it would be inappropriate for him to say much, so he could only keep smiling and asked, “Then, shall I take all of you to the King’s Room now?”
While speaking, he cast a questioning gaze to Lucas.
Silas was standing in front of the manager, blocking his line of sight. He patted his shoulder enthusiastically and said, “Haha, Mr. Frey, please show us the way!”
Lucas was amused, but he didn’t say anything.
Thus, they followed the manager to the prestigious King’s Room of Club Aurora.
As soon as they stepped inside the room, almost everyone gasped in shock.
It was indeed worthy of being the one and only King’s Room of Club Aurora!
Once they entered, they were greeted with a massive space of over a hundred square meters. Needless to say, the decor was of the highest grade of luxury. The ornaments and furniture were all embellished with genuine diamonds and colorful gemstones, and the walls were decorated with famous paintings. There were authentic antiques around the room, and the plants were all rare and precious. Any item here could easily fetch tens of thousands of dollars, if not more.
The total cost of building and furnishing the King’s Room was at least tens of millions of dollars!
Many people present, even Vanessa and Ashley, who were from the eight top families of DC, had never seen such a luxurious room, let alone the others.
They even felt as if they were stepping on gilded gold floor panels. It was incredibly luxurious!
“Mr. Gray, here are two bottles of fine wine from the precious collection of Club Aurora. They have been aged for years. May you and your friends have an enjoyable time here!”
The manager ordered his subordinate to deliver two bottles of wine. He placed them on a rosewood table before bowing and leaving.
After the manager left, Allie looked at Silas in shock and asked eagerly, “Silas, I didn’t expect you to be one of the most distinguished guests of Club Aurora! You hid it too well. We didn’t know at all!”
“Yeah, Silas, it isn’t very nice of you to have hidden it from us! We wouldn’t have known if the manager didn’t say it all of a sudden!”
Carrie and Zoey lamented with coquettish smiles, blaming him for not revealing it sooner.
But Silas was actually the confused one.
He had no idea that Frey would suddenly come and say that he was one of the most distinguished guests of Club Aurora. Not only did he bring them to the King’s Room personally, but he even presented them with two bottles of red wine worth hundreds of thousands of dollars!
This treatment left him dumbfounded!
If he wasn’t the only person whose last name was Gray here, he wouldn’t have dared to admit it.
He definitely didn’t think that Frey had spoken to Lucas. He just assumed that Lucas, Ashley’s loser husband, only got the chance to enter a luxurious club like Club Aurora for the first time thanks to them. He was certain that the most distinguished guest wasn’t Lucas!
Of course, the other people present also thought the same. They didn’t think that the manager had spoken to Lucas at all.
Ashley was the only one who looked at Lucas.
The others were clueless, but she knew that Lucas wasn’t a penniless loser but the chairman of the Stardust Corporation. He was a big shot that even the eight top families of DC and the royals didn’t dare to disregard.
Ashley believed that the most distinguished guest was Lucas and definitely not Silas!
She opened her mouth to speak, but Lucas waved at her to signal her to remain silent.
First, Lucas didn’t want to reveal his identity. Second, if Ashley really brought it up, these people would probably think that it was just a joke. They definitely wouldn’t believe her, so she would just be wasting her breath.
Even Peter thought that Silas’s family had probably struck a windfall or become friends with an impressive big shot. He playfully punched his shoulder and smiled. “You really hid it well. You didn’t even tell me! I said it was my treat, but it turns out I don’t have to pay anymore!”
After receiving Peter’s intimate gesture, Silas was really proud. “Haha, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I really forgot about it until I saw Mr. Frey. I suddenly recalled that my dad told me last night that he formed a relationship with a powerful big shot who came to DC recently to develop his business and that I might bump into him.
“I thought my dad was joking, but it turns out he was serious. It seems the big shot he mentioned is the big shot behind the Parkers. He probably knows me too. That’s why he instructed Mr. Frey to invite us to the King’s Room and serve us expensive red wine.
“If I had known earlier, I would have mentioned my family when booking the room. It would have saved us the hassle of switching rooms!”
Silas was talking as if his father had really befriended an impressive big shot.
Although he made up the story, Silas really felt that it was the most likely reason.
Otherwise, why would the manager be so polite toward him and even bring them to the luxurious King’s Room of Club Aurora?
When he returned home tonight, he had to ask his father who the impressive person he had befriended was.
What Silas said made everyone except Peter and Vanessa envious. They didn’t expect him to be so lucky. As long as the Grays could get close to this powerful figure, they would rise to a higher status and surpass them and their families.
Carrie was feeling sour and jealous, but she couldn’t show her emotions. When she saw Lucas sitting calmly on the comfortable couch, she couldn’t help making a snide remark. “Some people are really thick-skinned! He sat down by himself before the rest of us!
“They both have the last name Gray, but one is a distinguished guest who gets treated respectfully, while the other is a broke loser here to leech off us. What a world of difference!”
