Moon Warriors novel Chapter 15

She opened the voicemail that was sent by Mary Harvey. Mary said, “Emily Clark, this seems to be your husband. I just walked past Wanzhonglou and saw him accidentally. Is he working at Wanzhonglou as a waiter?”

After listening to Mary’s words, Emily felt her heart stabbed by a knife.

Then, she stood up and rushed to Wanzhonglou hurriedly. When she arrived somewhere near Wanzhonglou, she saw Andrew who was wearing the waiter’s uniform resting at the second floor.

She did not expect that Andrew was working as a waiter and did not let her know.

She took out her phone and called Andrew. He picked up her call quickly.

“Andrew, where are you?” asked Emily.

Andrew replied, “Oh, I am dealing some issues outside. Anything?”

“Nothing. Can you tell me your location?”

“Mine? I am going back soon. Are you going to tell me something?”

“Nothing. Can’t I call you for no reason? Come back earlier then. I will hang up the call.”

After finishing talking, she hung up. Then she could not bear to look at Andrew again. Her heart was filled with the feeling of unsettling and discomfort. Why did he rather work as a waiter than seek help from her?

Perhaps this was Martin family’s attitude on Andrew. Since Andrew was a man, men usually kept their troubles with themselves.

Before leaving Wanzhonglou secretly, she looked at Andrew again.

After finishing tidying up, Andrew received a call from Phoenix Morgan.

“Andrew, Emily went out shopping today.”

“Oh? Where did she go?”

“She went to a jewellery store and to visit you too.”

“Alright, noted.”

After hanging up the call, Andrew immediately rushed to the biggest jewellery store in K City.

Perhaps women liked jewellery. Since Emily’s birthday was around the corner, he would like to prepare a gift for her.

Dorsett Jewelry Store was not the biggest jewellery store in K City but it was a place that sold the most expensive jewellery. This place was not the jewellery store for normal citizens but for the rich. The boss, Archibald Elliott, was one of the famous rich men in K City.

When Andrew reached the doorsteps of the jewellery store, two saleswomen were looking carefully at Andrew. He did not look like a rich man because of his cheap outfits.

“Sir, are you coming here to buy something? Or looking for someone else?” One of the saleswomen asked Andrew.

Andrew was stunned for a while and said, “Buy something.”

The saleswoman sneered because she wondered Andrew knew that simply not anyone can buy things in Dorsett. So, she asked, “Then, do you have our member card?”

Andrew shook his head, “No.”

“I am sorry, sir. Perhaps you come to the wrong place. Our products here are very expensive and we will not sell it to you if you do not have our member card. You will have to visit the other stores!”

After hearing this, Andrew’s face changed. This saleswoman was looking down on him.

When he was going to speak, there came a woman’s voice from inside.

“Eh! Is this Andrew? What happened? You come to buy things in Dorsett?”

Andrew raised his head and saw Mary was with some other women that he didn’t know.

Mary’s family was running a factory on building materials and could be considered as a medium enterprise which had the assets of almost ten millions. She was Emily’s schoolmate in high school. In Andrew’s memories, both of them were good friends.

Mary asked Andrew provokingly, “Do you know how expensive the products here are? Perhaps you can’t even afford to buy a gift after working as a waiter for twenty years.”

“Oh, so he is a waiter, that’s what I said just now.”

“These years, there are many ridiculous people.” Both of the saleswomen muttered with provoking expressions on their face.

Andrew did not even know when he became a waiter.

“If you want to buy a gift for Emily, then you may go to the street. The other stores on the street might be more suitable for her. They just cost thousands.” While saying that, Mary could not bear anymore and laughed it out.

The saleswomen were laughing too.

After Emily’s family faced difficulties, she looked down on Emily from the bottom of her heart. Apparently, they were best friends but actually they were not anymore.

Andrew looked at Mary and said, “My wife definitely has to wear the most expensive jewellery because she is always more precious than you.”

Mary smiled coldly, “Oh! You love your wife so much! Emily and you are definitely a perfect couple.”

Andrew ignored her and walked into Dorsett.

But when he just walked a few steps, both of the saleswomen blocked his way. “Eh! Eh! Eh! What are you doing?”

Andrew tilted his head and asked, “What do you mean?”

“What do we mean? You, a waiter, why are you here? Do you know how expensive our things inside? If you cause any damage, can you afford to compensate?”

“Yes, you are right! Do you think that anyone can enter Dorsett?”

At that moment, there was a strong voice echoing, “What happened? Why is it so noisy? Do you know that we are doing business here?”

The voice was from a bald old man who was wearing a Tang dynasty costume and holding a string of Buddhist bead. There were a few men in suits behind him. Obviously, the old man was holding an advanced position in Dorsett.

“Boss, he is the one causing trouble! He does not have a member card and yet still wants to come in to buy things. He even disturbs the other customers.” One of the saleswomen pointed to Andrew.

“Yes, it’s true. He disturbs me and I have lost my interest in shopping after seeing such people.” Mary also pointed at Andrew disdainfully.

Archibald was walking towards Andrew and after evaluating Andrew attentively, the manager who stood behind him said quickly, “Boss, don’t worry. I will handle it. I will chase him out now. Guard! Guard!”

Archibald raised his hand and slapped the saleswoman’s face. Suddenly, he turned his face and slapped the manager’s face too.

After that, a loud sound can be heard. He kneeled down on the ground.

He grabbed tightly on Andrew’s shirt with both of his hands and said in a trembling voice, “Benefactor! Finally I meet you again! I even think that I do not have the chance to meet you again in this lifetime.”

Silent! Everyone remained silent!

The saleswomen and customers who were standing aside were stunned. In the full blaze of publicity, Archibald who was one of the famous rich man in K City and the boss of Dorsett kneeled down in front of a youngster in his twenties. In addition, he cried his heart out.

Mary was one of the most astonished person. Her jaws dropped and could not believe this scene that happened in front of her.

Wasn’t Andrew the son-in-law who lived at his parents-in-law’s house? Why would Archibald kneel down in front of him?

Who was he?

“Who are you?” Andrew did not change his face because there were too many people kneeling down in front of him. He was not surprised anymore.

“According to my identity, it is normal that you cannot remember me. Can we step inside to talk?”

Andrew nodded lightly and Archibald also stood up.

“Both of you are fired!” Archibald said while pointing towards the manager and the saleswoman.
