Chapter 51
The distance between the restaurant from the hotel was half an hour.
Their car stopped at the restaurant entrance, which looked like some ancient golden palace.
After Simon led Marina through the door, they walked straight to the elevator at the end of the hall.
There was only one elevator on the other side and a huge sign beside it.
[It’s exclusive to the boss. Off–limits to customers!]
However, when Marina entered the elevator, she happened to yawn and did not notice the sign.
Meanwhile, unwelcome guests were in the main hall.
Sophia was waiting with a group of her best friends.
“Sophia, it’s all thanks to you this time that we can come here to have a good meal. You know, this
shop is difficult to book. The last time I came to ask, they told me the bookings are already scheduled
until next year.” A gorgeously dressed girl held Sophia’s hand with a solicitous expression.
“It’s nothing. I just came here with Gordon to eat once. I told him the food here was not bad, so he This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
asked the boss to get me a VIP card. I don’t have to make a reservation when I come here to dine. I
can have my meal here whenever I want,” Sophia said shyly with a mask on her face.
However, half of her superb acting skills were concealed because of the mask.
Initially, she did not plan to go out until a month later.
However, because she had always rejected her friends‘ invitations, there were rumors in the circle that
Gordon had dumped her.
How could she tolerate this?
Hence, she could only wear a mask to have a dinner date with them.
Sophia had initially wanted to go shopping to make her presence known, but this group insisted on
going out for a meal.
She could only grit her teeth and follow to prove that Gordon doted on her.
Later, she would say she was on a diet and did not want to eat.
“Sophia, you’re lucky. Not only is Mr. Campbell handsome and comes from a good family, but he’s also
so infatuated with you. If my boyfriend were one–tenth as good as him, I wouldn’t have to quarrel with
him every day.” Everyone was envious.
“Your boyfriend is also nice. At least he can accompany you every day. Gordon is especially busy with
work. Sometimes, he doesn’t even have time to accompany me for a meal. Yesterday, I asked him to
accompany me. He broke his promise and bought me this bag to apologize, but I didn’t want it. I want
him to accompany me by having a meal with me.”
Although Sophia said that, her expression was like she wanted to show off the bag.
“Ah, I know this handbag. I saw it at the fashion show last time. It hasn’t been released in this country
yet, right? Mr. Campbell dotes on you and even bought you this!”
“Oh my god, this bag costs seven figures!”
The girls chattered about the handbag.
Everyone was envious again.
Sophia finally felt a little better when she saw everyone’s envious expressions.
“Huh, why isn’t it our turn yet? Sophia, didn’t you tell us before you came here to eat? But we’ve been
waiting for almost half an hour,” Someone asked impatiently.
“I’ll go ask.” Sophia looked at the time. They had indeed waited for a long time.
She immediately stood up and walked towards the waitress. The elegantly dressed women followed
her.
“Hello. I would like to ask when it would be our turn to get seated.” Sophia handed over her VIP card.
“Alright.” The waitress took it and checked for Sophia. Then, she handed the card back to Sophia
apologetically.
“Mrs. Campbell, I’m sorry, but you might have to wait a little longer.”
“Why? My fiance told me that I can dine here whatever I want with this card.” Sophia frowned when she
heard this.
“A special guest suddenly came just now. Our head chef went to entertain him,” The waitress explained
politely.
come,
“What special guest? No matter how special he is, he should know first
first served, right? We’ve already waited here for so long. Why should we wait for him the moment he
arrives?” Sophia was instantly displeased when she heard that there was a special guest.
Perhaps because she was born into an ordinary family, she was especially sensitive to such matters.
Moreover, she had come out to show off today. How could she maintain her reputation among friends if
she gave in so easily?
“I’m sorry, Mrs. Campbell. If you don’t want to wait, you can leave now,” The waitress said with a
smile.
“Are you chasing me away? Do you know who I am? Call your manager. I want to make a complaint!”
When Sophia heard the waitress’s words, she exploded on the spot.
“No matter who it is, they must follow our rules once they enter our shop. These are the exact words of
our boss.” The waitress still had a polite smile on her face.
“Then, get me your boss! I want him to give me a reasonable.
explanation!” Sophia was so angry that she almost lost control of her temper.
Meanwhile, everything was peaceful in Room Zero of the restaurant.
Marina and Simon were already seated.
The decoration in the room was as magnificent as the restaurant
entrance.
The seats were all decorated with golden backrests.
When Marina sat down, she subconsciously felt she was a queen on a throne.
“Don’t tell me the owner of this restaurant has a dream of becoming a king,” Marina turned around and
asked Simon.
“What king! I want to be an imperial chef. An imperial chef!!!” However, a displeased voice suddenly
came from the door before Simon could speak.
Then, a man dressed like an imperial chef from ancient times rushed towards Marina.
However, Marina felt he looked more like a servant than a chef!
Before the imperial chef dressed like an imperial servant could reach Marina, he was stopped by
Simon.
“Let go of me! She insulted my dream. I want to make her apologize!” The man looked furious.
“You can’t defeat her with your mediocre skills,” Simon said.
The man was speechless.
The man immediately took a step back. “Who said that we’re going to fight? Only boorish people like
you like to beat up others. Let’s have a cooking battle!” The man flung his ponytail excitedly.
His spirit of winning was already burning fiercely.
Marina was at a loss for words.
Marina whispered, “Is it too late for me to leave now?”
Simon whispered, “Since we’re already here, why don’t we try it before leaving?”
“Alright.” Marina could not reject Simon’s polite temptation.
“Hurry up and return to your work position!” Seeing that Marina had agreed, Simon immediately shot
that guy a warning glance.
