Chapter 33 Face Off
The Vienna Concert Hall was the largest concert hall in Lille.
It was built with reference to one of the best concert halls in the world, the Golden Hall of Vienna!
Its dazzling decorations and unparalleled acoustics could even be ranked among the top music halls across the country.
In fact, this was the first time Carlisle had come to such an artistic place. In the past, he simply had no money.
However, after becoming wealthy, Carlisle was not too interested. He really could not appreciate classical music.
But today, he was here with Alice. It could be considered a new experience.
When they arrived at the concert hall, Carlisle and Alice got out of the car, while the driver found a place to park and wait for Carlisle.
Alice took Carlisle’s arm and the two of them slowly walked towards the music hall.
Carlisle was slightly surprised when he entered the venue.
The view of the venue was extremely wide. At a glance, it didn’t feel like a concert hall. Instead, it felt like a church.
The colors of the venue were mainly gold, red, yellow, and other warm colors, giving people a feeling of light and holiness.
Eight huge crystal chandeliers hung above the venue, shining like eight giant diamonds.
Carlisle and Alice found their respective seats.
Just as they sat down, a familiar voice came from behind her.
“Junior Alice! What a coincidence that you’re here to listen to the concert too.”
Alice turned and realized it was Matthew.
“Senior Matthew,” Alice replied indifferently.
Carlisle also turned around and realized that this was the rich second-generation heir who had driven a BMW to ask Alice out last time. Now, there was a rather sexy and enchanting woman beside him today.
Matthew also noticed Carlisle and his expression turned cold.
It was Carlisle who came to snatch his woman on a bicycle and succeeded!
This matter had been his shame for some time. He had long hated Carlisle for robbing him of the woman he liked.
However, he now had a heaven-sent opportunity today and happened to meet Carlisle. He wanted to let this poor kid know the consequences of offending him.
“Junior, where are you sitting?” Matthew asked pretentiously.
How could he not know Alice’s seat? He simply wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate Carlisle.
“Here,” Alice responded.
“Junior, how can you sit here? This student, you’re really too much. You should be more generous to invite Alice to watch the concert! You should arrange a private room at least, right?” Matthew said sarcastically.
“Senior, you’ve misunderstood…” Alice was about to explain that she had invited Carlisle.
But Matthew didn’t give Alice a chance and continued, “Junior, why don’t you come to the private room I booked? There’s one more seat.” Matthew deliberately emphasized the words “one more” and looked at Carlisle teasingly.
Hearing that Matthew had booked a private room and invited her to go, Alice was actually a little tempted. Although this concert hall was already a top-notch concert hall, only those in expensive private rooms could really enjoy the top-notch sound effects of the concert hall.
However, the cheapest private room cost 88,000 dollars, and the best private room was worth 888,888 dollars. It was not an exaggeration.
Matthew booked the cheapest private room at 88,000 dollars. However, compared to ordinary seats, the sound effects were already worlds apart!
“Thank you, Senior Matthew, but I’m here with a friend today, so I won’t be joining you.” Alice declined politely.
She had taken the initiative to invite Carlisle to enjoy the concert today. What would Carlisle think if she went with another man?
Moreover, Carlisle should be richer than Matthew. If she told Carlisle, would he open a top-notch private room for her?
Alice fell into conjecture.
“Don’t be shy, Alice. This is a rare opportunity.
I know you love music very much. I believe your friend will understand.” Matthew chuckled.
He wanted to take away Alice in front of Carlisle. How could a poor man be worthy of staying with Alice? Dream on!
Carlisle could tell that he was here to “snatch”
a woman from him.
What did he mean by I would understand? What did he understand?!
If Alice really left with Matthew, he would be embarrassed to death!
However, he believed that Alice would not do that, but he had to do something to declare his sovereignty.
After thinking for a moment, Carlisle said, “Alice, why didn’t you say earlier that there were better private rooms? You should have enjoyed this concert in the best private room. Fortunately, the concert hasn’t officially started yet.”
Matthew looked surprised when he heard that.
What did he mean? Carlisle wanted to open a top-notch private room for Alice? How was that possible? He couldn’t even book it! This wasn’t a matter of money. Of course, he couldn’t fork out that much money. However, those who could enter the top private room were all people who stood at the top of society in Lille. How was Carlisle worthy? “Haha! Junior Alice, your friend is quite humorous. He really said that he wanted to open a top-notch private room for you?” Although Matthew had tried his best to hide the ridicule in his eyes, it was still inadvertently revealed.
Even Alice was stunned. In her opinion, Carlisle should be jealous of her and Matthew. Men all wanted to show their powerful side in front of the opposite sex.
Alice actually enjoyed this feeling in her heart. Moreover, she was also looking forward to seeing whether Carlisle would really open a top-notch private room for her.
However, thinking about it, it shouldn’t be possible. It was more or less not worth it to spend 888,888 dollars to listen to a concert.
“Senior, do you know how we can change to a private room?” Carlisle chuckled. Matthew was slightly surprised. Carlisle really wanted to open a top-notch private room?
This is absolutely impossible. He is definitely bluffing.
“Carlisle, don’t waste your money. It’s fine to sit here,” Alice suddenly interrupted. She had no doubt about Carlisle’s plan to open a top-notch private room for her. To be honest, she was delighted, but she had already accepted Carlisle’s gift of more than a million dollars. If she accepted this astronomical price for a room, she really wouldn’t know how to repay Carlisle. However, after Alice finished speaking, Matthew looked happy. He was just a little uncertain about Carlisle’s background, but after Alice said that, he understood.
Carlisle was indeed bluffing. Alice must have known the truth about Carlisle, so she helped him smooth things over.
How could Matthew let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to humiliate Carlisle?
is “Hey, Junior Alice, I can tell that this guy obviously interested in you! He’s actually willing to open the best private room for you. You should give him a chance to prove himself!” Matthew said with a smile. “Hey, do you see the window at the back of the venue?
If you really want a top-notch private room, walk to that window and inform the staff inside.” Matthew pointed out enthusiastically, but his eyes were filled with mockery. “Oh, thanks.” With that, Carlisle walked towards the window.
