Chapter 267: What Have I Done?
Cheers?
Those employees must have been too happy to hear about the pay increase.
“Oh, they were just rehearsing the welcome dance outside.”
“Welcome dance? What’s That?”Quinn asked.
“Um … they choreographed a dance to welcome the guests.”
“Is that so? We’ll have to take a good look at it when we go out later!”
Lauren cursed inwardly, “Oh no, what have I done?”.
Quickly lowering her head, she sent them a message, telling them to quickly rehearse a dance.
She would double their salary again!
Quinn didn’t know what Lauren was up to. As he looked at the decoration of the private room, he said, “Everlasting Legacy is indeed the best restaurant in the country. Although it uses hunger marketing, its service is really good.”
Quinn gave a thumbs-up sign.
“The owner of this restaurant is really smart in doing business!”
Lauren agreed, “That’s right. The owner of this restaurant is too intelligent. She must be a smart and beautiful girl!”
“A girl? How do you know the owner is a girl?”
“Haha, I am just guessing.”
Chef McDonnell cooked at express speed. With the help of other chefs, breakfasts were served very quickly. The dishes were not only brought to the table fast, but also were excellent in color, aroma and taste.
Just as everyone was about to pick up their forks and knives enjoying the meal, Quinn took out his phone and stopped them.
“Wait a minute! Don’t eat the food! Take a few photos first.”
Quinn started taking pictures with his phone eagerly. Lauren’s saliva almost dripped to the ground.
“Quinn, are you done yet?”
“Let me take another photo from a different angle. The lighting here is good!”
“Oh…”
Finally, a few minutes later.
“Alright, alright, let’s enjoy the food!”
Lauren forked a dumpling first. It was a shrimp dumpling, the delicacy of the southern part of the country.
The dumpling wrapper was very thin, and the shrimp inside was crystal clear and plump. Lauren took a bite, and then she felt that the fragrance lingered on the lips and teeth.
In addition to the southern breakfast, there was also the northern breakfast. Compared to the southern breakfast, the northern breakfast had a more intense taste, constantly stimulating the taste buds of the people present.
Even Franklin, who had no interest in eating, and Bryce, who was very picky, ate a lot of food during breakfast.
Seeing that all the people present were satisfied with the dishes, Lauren nodded her head.
Although today she did not complete the task that should be completed, she was still very happy. Chef McDonnell deserved better pay.
“By the way, I received a call from Madame Torres yesterday afternoon. She said that she wanted you to go to the church in two weeks.”
Madame Torres’ given name was Tina. Having a high reputation, she was the matriarch of the Torres family, so no one dared to call her by her name. They all addressed her respectfully as Madame Torres.
Quinn forked a small dumpling into his mouth. As he was chewing it, he asked, “Why did she suddenly ask us to go over?”
“It wasn’t a sudden move. You didn’t know about it since you were overseas. The church that Madame Torres visited would hold an event where everyone should practice abstinence from meat. Mr. Franklin and Mr. Bryce had joined in the event before.”
Bryce said, “That’s right! One year, the event was held on a Thursday. Grandma even insisted that I ask for leave from school!”
“Madame Torres has always been a devout believer. You should understand her.”
Nodding his head, Franklin said, “I will tell the secretary to purchase the items when the time comes. It will be the same as we did two years ago, right?”
Mr. Hayes nodded. “Yes, it will be the same.”
“Alright, I will arrange my work at that time.”
Having finished the sentence, Franklin turned his gaze to Lauren.
Pondering for a moment, Franklin said, “Lauren would also join us? I think she had better stay.”
In the Torres family, grandma was the one who held the biggest hostility towards Lauren. Franklin wanted to guide his grandma to like her after Lauren had built a bond with the others.
“I’m afraid not. Madame Torres clearly said that Lady Lauren should join in the event as well. She specifically mentioned her.”
Hearing his words, Franklin thought that there was nothing he could do about it.
Madame Torres mentioned her name either for praising or for criticizing.
Madame Torres would definitely not praise her. Probably she just wanted to find her fault.
After the meal, the few of them even expressed their gratitude to Chef McDonnell. Chef McDonnell was a man of rich experience. He responded politely.
When he was about to send them off, Quinn suddenly remembered something.
“Oh, you guys rehearsed a welcome dance, right? We didn’t see it just now. Could you dance for us now?”
Lowering his head, Chef McDonnell looked at Lauren.
Lauren gave a dry laugh.
