Super system makes me a trillionaire

Chapter 71:1907 silent ship_1



Meanwhile, Henry let out a sigh of relief at his response. Immediately after, he hastily took his leave.

However, before leaving, he said something to the manager, that surprised the manager himself. There was more respect in the way he looked at Bright.

After Henry left, the restaurant fell into silence once again. Bright could palpably sense that something about the surrounding atmosphere was amiss.

Although there weren't many people in the restaurant right then, there were still a few customers around.

Considering the commotion they had caused, it naturally attracted quite a few people's attention.

At that moment, they were all looking at Bright with curiosity in their eyes. Every single one of them was curious about Bright's identity.

After all, the chairman of Richard Group was quite a powerful position in Cartmel. Even so, the plain looking young man before them was able to receive a bow and an apology from Henry. How could they not be curious?

Meanwhile, Gracie who was sitting across from Bright, stared dazedly at him. She couldn't help asking, "Mr. John, what exactly happened between you and Henry?"

Upon hearing her question, Bright merely smiled and replied, "Nothing much, we just had a friendly conversation in the restroom. He decided to correct his mistakes and apologize to us, that's all."

Gracie certainly did not believe that explanation, how could someone feel remorse and decide to apologize after just exchanging a few words?

Even a three year old wouldn't believe that. Something must have happened between the two of them in the restroom. Bright must have found some kind of leverage against Henry to make him anxious.

"If you are not going to tell me, then forget it." Gracie pouted.

Then, she continued to eat her steak. After less than a minute, Gracie's phone suddenly buzzed, she looked puzzled as she picked up the phone.

The moment she saw the notification, Gracie's jaw dropped in disbelief, her expression became somewhat bewildered.

"What happened?" Bright asked.

"H-Henry, he... transferred three million dollars to me!" Gracie responded.

In response to that, Bright raised an eyebrow. Moments later, he understood, Henry was truly afraid of him. The money was just to get into his good graces.

Thus, he simply laughed and said, "It seems that Henry acts quickly."

On the other hand, Gracie didn't know about all that, she hesitated slightly and asked, "But all I did was get fired by the company, isn't three million too much?"

"Three million isn't that much. Since Henry gave you the money, just accept it! If you don't, Henry will keep making trouble for you." Bright stated calmly.

After all, he was well aware that even though Gracie was the one Henry had transferred the money to, Henry's true target was Bright himself.

If Gracie rejected the money, then Henry would definitely worry that it was Bright who wasn't allowing her to accept it. If that were the case, things would never come to an end.

That was normal though, Bright had such huge leverage against Henry. Understandably, that would make one panic.

"Um..." For this, Gracie seemed a bit hesitant.

However, she then gently nodded, saying, "Alright then."

Right then, the manager returned. A young waiter was following him.

The waiting held a silver tray, covered with a red cloth.

"Sorry to interrupt your meal, Mr. John." The manager bowed slightly to Bright as he spoke in an exceptionally respectful tone.

Bright put down his knife and fork. He then glanced at the manager in a rather curious way.

The manager clapped his hands, signaling the young waiter to bring forth the tray.

As the red cloth was uncovered, it was shockingly revealed that a wooden box of wine was displayed on the tray. Additionally, there was a black card.

When he saw that, Bright was taken aback.

The he asked, "What is this?"

Upon hearing Bright's question, the manager smiled as he answered, "This is our restaurant's black card. With this card, you will receive the highest level of service at all I'atelier stores worldwide. You will get a permanent 50 percent discount on everything and you will never have to make a reservation"

The manager picked up the black card and respectfully handed it to Bright.

Bright nodded before accepting the card. "Thank you!"

Meanwhile, many of the other customers nearby gasped in astonishment.

"Wow!" Everyone was shocked as they stared at the black card and being handed out by the manager.

The I'atelier black card was the highest level membership card of I'atelier. There were no more than 100 customers worldwide who had that card.

Even so, that seemingly ordinary young man received one. How could they not be shocked?

As for the waiter, he picked up the wooden box of wine. Then, he slid open the lid and the manager took out the bottle of wine inside.

It was pure black bottle, there was no label on it nor was there any other decoration. It was simple and very modest.

The moment the bottle of wine was taken out, quite a few people were interested in it.

Among them, a few people had a trace of considerable surprise in their eyes when they saw the bottle.

"What kind of wine is this?"

"What kind of wine is this?"

"A black wine bottle? I don't recognize it..."

A few tables of customers not far away were looking at this black wine bottle, confusion in their gazes.

At that moment, the manager spoke up. "Mr. John, this bottle of wine is a gift to you from Mr. Jackson. Please allow me to introduce this wine to you!"

As he spoke, the manager set the wine bottle in his hand on the table.

Then, he slowly explained. "This wine is called the 1907 silent ship. It's a bottle of white champagne with less than 200 bottles left on the market currently. It's most recent auction price went up to 1.88 million dollars. However, considering that the last auction happened a long time ago, the value of this wine has probably exceeded two million dollars with today's market value!"

The moment he said that, everyone in the room sucked in a breath of cold air.

Gracie stared at the modest looking black bottle of champagne with an expression of shock!
