Chapter 545 

Mia was surprised by the waiter’s unexpected courtesy toward her, considering Jeremy was the one 

treating them. 

Glancing at the waiter, she stated, “I don’t need anything else, thank you.” 

With that, the waiter departed the private room without acknowledging Jeremy nearby. 

Ramona quickly commented, “What kind of service is that? Such arrogance! Does he assume Mia is 

treating us today?” 

Her remarks were met with laughter from several classmates. 

To salvage the situation, Jeremy quickly interjected, “The waiter is just being polite. I’ve been to this restaurant several times, and I simply wanted everyone to order what they preferred. 

“However, when it comes to settling the bill, it’s on me.” 

“Jeremy, you’re just as charming and handsome as ever, nothing has changed,” 

Upon hearing Ramona compliment Jeremy and flirt with him on purpose, Mia’s appetite immediately 

diminished. 

She glanced at Gina and Taylor seated beside her; they seemed to be engrossed in conversation. 

Silently, Mia poured herself a glass of lemon water. 

Even though she was somewhat put off by Ramona and Jeremy’s demeanor at the table, her sole purpose for coming was to try to set up Gina with Taylor. 

Before long, the waiter arrived with the dishes. 

Soon, the table was filled with food, noticeably more than what they had originally ordered. 

Jeremy was the first to notice something was amiss. “I don’t believe we ordered this much,” he remarked. 

Glancing at Mia, the waiter announced, “These dishes are compliments from the restaurant owner, Mr. 

Irwin Russ. He hopes you all enjoy your meal and have a wonderful time.” 

As the waiter left, Jeremy found himself puzzled. 

In reality, he rarely interacted with Irwin, as they operated in entirely different social circles.

Even if Jeremy wanted to impress him, he simply didn’t have the means to do so. 

Ramona closely observed the dishes on the table and exclaimed, “Jeremy, aren’t these dishes from the exclusive VIP menu? How did they end up here? Only VIP guests can order them!” 

Everyone had presumed these dishes wouldn’t be served following Mia’s embarrassing mishap just now. 

Yet, much to their surprise, all of them were brought to the table. 

Jolene promptly added, “This must be due to Jeremy’s influence, right? Who else here could have that 

kind of clout?‘ 

Ramona nodded with a smile. “Exactly! Jeremy, you sly dog, keeping this all to yourself? I even tried 

persuading my parents for the membership card to this place, but they wouldn’t budge. 

“And here you are, concealing your VIP status like it’s no big deal. 

Suddenly, the entire room was lavishing Jeremy with praise. 

Jeremy’s expression became slightly uncomfortable. After all, he was just an ordinary patron. He 

couldn’t have possibly ordered dishes from the VIP menu. 

He struggled to comprehend why there were suddenly so many exclusive dishes on the table. Was it a 

mistake? 

Despite his confusion, Jeremy didn’t want to risk embarrassment by denying it. 

Suddenly, Mia’s phone puzzed. She retrieved it and saw a message from Claude. “How’s the food today? I’ve already spoken to Mr. Russ, so you can expect top–notch treatment!” 

Upon reading the message, Mia finally understood why the waiter had treated her so courteously earlier. 

It turned out that Claude had spoken to Irwin. 

Mia responded with an emoji, “Thanks, Claude.” 

Leaning in, Gina whispered, “So it’s because of your brother, right? Why didn’t you mention it? Can’t you 

see how everyone is flattering Jeremy?” 

As Mia placed her phone down, she overheard Ramona showering Jeremy with compliments. 

Everyone seemed to believe that the extra dishes were brought out due to Jeremy’s influence. 

However, Mia didn’t feel compelled to disclose the truth.

In a subdued voice, she remarked, “It’s unnecessary. Besides, there won’t be another occasion like this.” 

“Exactly, there’s no point in staying in touch with these individuals. It’s not worth it,” Gina agreed. 

Mia flashed a grin at Gina and asked, “Anyway, what are your thoughts on Taylor?”
