Randy looked up and frowned immediately when he saw that the boy was Simon.
"Him again?" Josh looked speechless. "The other time at the playground, his grandma reserved the merry-go-round for him, so we didn't get to play too. Is she intending to reserve the whole restaurant this time? So does that mean we don't get to play again?"
"Simon's grandma is so scary, " Venus muttered as she hid behind Randy. She grabbed the corners of her brother's shirt tightly and looked away.
When Jombo heard the kids' conversation, he frowned and shot a glance at Thompson, who attended to the matter immediately.
"My darlings, don't be afraid. With Mr. Jombo here, no one would dare to bully you, " Jombo bent down and reassured the kids while stroking Venus's hair gently.
"Mr. Jombo, let's just leave this place, " Randy took Jombo's hand and tried to drag him away. "Simon is our classmate. His mommy and both his grandmas are all very fierce. My Mommy had an argument with them once, and they made my Mommy so angry."
"I'm sure it's their fault, " Jombo squatted down and gave Randy a comforting hug while saying, "I know that your Mommy is a great woman just by seeing how outstanding the three of you are."
"Yup, my Mommy is the best, " Josh nodded his head immediately.
"Simon's grandma and mommy bullied us first. Mommy only argued with them because she wanted to protect us… " Venus pouted and said indignantly.
"With Mr. Jombo around today, no one is allowed to bully you. C'mon, let's go in now!" Jombo said and led the kids into the restaurant.
"But… I'm scared…" Venus hid behind Jombo timidly and did not dare to go in.
"Don't be scared. Mr. Jombo is here, " Jombo held the little girl's hand.
"Mr. Jombo, let's forget it. We can head to the restaurant next door for pizza. I don't want to cause Mommy any trouble, " Randy said while tugging at Jombo's shirt.
"Silly boy." Jombo's heart ached a little as he touched the boy's head affectionately.
"If Simon's grandma had reserved the whole place, wouldn't she chase us out?" Josh frowned, looking worried.
"That's not happening as she won't be allowed to do that, " Jombo looked in the direction of the woman.
"What? Someone bought the restaurant?" Jenner exclaimed in shock. "When did it happen? Everything was still normal just two minutes ago. How is it possible that someone had suddenly bought it?"
"The transaction was just completed, " the manager of the restaurant informed the woman politely. "Our boss just called a minute ago."
"But…"
Jenner had something else to say, but the manager could no longer be bothered to entertain her. Walking past the woman, he approached Thompson and greeted him respectfully.
After Thompson whispered something to the manager, the manager's expression changed immediately, and he quickly led all the restaurant's employees to welcome Jombo and the three kids.
All thirty-six employees stood in two rows and took a ninety-degree bow while they greeted, "Welcome, Mr. Giblo, little princes, and little princess! We are glad to be of service to you today!"
The three kids looked at each other and could hardly register what was happening.
"Oh, it's you three little bast_rds, " Jenner said as her expression darkened. She took quick strides towards the three little ones and asked in a harsh tone, "You three little creatures, where did you get… "
"Shut up!" Jombo bellowed furiously. "You wrinkled old prune! How dare you insult my grandchildren! Are you tired of living?"
"You… You…" For all fifty years of her life, Jenner had never been humiliated so badly before, and her face turned ashen. Shaking with fury, she turned around and said to her bodyguards standing behind her, "Are you guys dead or what? Come over here right now!"
The woman's bodyguards were playing with Simon at the playground and did not know what was going on. After hearing Jenner shouting at them, they hurried over.
The men rolled up their sleeves and were about to take action when they noticed Thompson and his bodyguards. It was then that their expressions changed drastically.
"How dare that old fool insulted me! Teach him a lesson immediately, " Jenner yelled angrily while pointing at Jombo.
"Madam…" One of the bodyguards leaned in closer and whispered into her ear, "That man is Mr. Giblo from the Giblo Group!"
A quick shiver ran through Jenner's body as she turned pale and immediately apologized, "Mr. N-Giblo?"
