My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！

760  Chapter 759

At the mention of this, a flicker of panic flashed across Darien's face.

Next to him, Mollie shot him a hesitant look.

Her friends, however, began exchanging glances between Darien and Ellie.

One of them asked, "Mollie, what's going on here? Is your boyfriend faking this rich kid act?" Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Mollie immediately turned to Darien, her tone sharp. "That's impossible! Darien, are you going to let the servant's daughter talk to you like that? She's totally out of line!"

Darien shot up from his seat, storming over to Ellie. He grabbed her arm roughly. "Ellie Cobb, have you had enough?"

Ellie jerked her arm free.

Keira and Erin took a step forward, ready to help, but Ryan stopped them.

Ryan simply said, "The Cobb family doesn't need anyone to fight their battles."

Keira rolled her eyes. "Fine, if that's how the Cobbs handle things. But we're still going to have a nice little chat with Darien later."

So, the group stood by, watching the scene unfold.

Darien, seeing Ellie pull away, scoffed. "Stay if you want, just don't get in my way."

With that, he turned to Mollie.

Mollie, always quick on her feet, flashed a sly smile. "Darien, it's busy in here today, huh? Since this is your family's bar, I noticed the staff is kind of short-handed. Why don't we put her to work? It'd be convenient for all of us if she grabbed the drinks."

Ellie shot Darien a cold look. "Your family's bar?"

Darien's expression tightened for a second, but he grabbed her arm again, lowering his voice to hiss, "Stop wasting time. Just get the drinks already. Why do you have to make such a fuss?"

Meanwhile, Erin turned to Ryan, her eyes wide with disbelief. "Isn't this bar owned by your family?"

Ryan shrugged. "The Cobbs don't run businesses. It's technically under the Gill family name."

The Cobb family held a special status and avoided most business dealings, with the Gill family acting as their representatives.

So, while the bar wasn't officially run by the Cobbs, everyone knew who the real boss was. Whenever Ellie came here, no one dared charge her for anything. Most things went on a tab, settled at the end of each month.

Darien, of course, loved bringing people here since he didn't have to pay upfront.

Keira and Erin exchanged looks, both thinking how shameless Darien really was. Using someone else's bar and trying to kick out the owner? The nerve!

Their eyes turned back to Ellie, waiting to see how she'd deal with Darien or how she planned to strike back.

But to their surprise, Ellie gave Darien a long look before letting out a soft laugh. There was bitterness, disappointment, and then… a touch of relief, like she'd just realized something important.

Erin smirked. "The heiress is about to explode, isn't she?"

Just as she said that, Ellie calmly asked, "What do you all want to drink?"

Erin blinked in confusion. "Wait, what? Is she seriously going to play the servant here?"

Ryan stayed silent.

Before Erin could say anything else, Keira grinned and said, "Hold on. Let's wait and see what happens next."

Erin bit her tongue and watched.

Ellie's question hung in the air, and Darien, ever smug, let out a laugh.

This girl really was pathetic, wasn't she?

Two sentences from him, and she was already back in line…

Darien waved a hand dismissively. "Just bring us whatever."

Ellie raised an eyebrow. "There are two bottles of Romanée-Conti in the bar. Want those?"

Darien's eyebrows shot up.

The Romanée-Conti in this bar was exceptionally rare and expensive. Not just anyone could drink it. Even Ellie herself had to ask permission from her family to open those bottles.

Was she seriously offering it to him?

Darien's smirk widened. Was she trying to win him over with wine?

"Sure, open them!" he replied.

Ellie's voice was steady. "Each bottle costs $168,000. You sure you want them?"

A wave of gasps spread through the room.

Mollie stared in shock. "That much for a bottle?"

Her friends immediately began chiming in.

"Oh my god, Darien! We're so lucky to be with you tonight!"

"That's like drinking pure gold! I can't wait to taste it!"

Everyone was jumping on the bandwagon, showering Darien with compliments.

Darien, riding the wave of praise, lifted his chin and gave Ellie an impatient look. "Why are you standing there? Go get them already!"

Ellie gave him a small, cold smile. "Let me ask one more time. Two bottles, $336,000 total. You sure?"
