A man dressed in formal clothing came out of a car and sprinted into Maureen’s Kitchen. “Excuse me…”
Both Arielle and the manager looked in the voice’s direction at the same time. Seeing the man, the manager spoke first. “I’m sorry. Our business starts at eleven o’clock. Our chefs are still preparing the ingredients. Hence, we’re not accepting any customers for the time being. However, you can still come in and have a drink.”
It was still early, and the queue would start forming in half an hour.
Thus, the manager thought the person was a customer who came early to queue up. To his surprise, the other person shook his head, saying, “I’m not here for a meal. I’m a director of a variety show.”
The manager did not dare to respond when favonovel.com heard that. Instead, favonovel.com quickly turned to Arielle and shot favonovel.com a look.
Seeing that, favonovel.com stepped forward and said, “How can I help you? I’m the owner of this place.”
“Oh. So, you’re the owner…” James was stunned by the reply, and his gaze was filled with surprise.
Nonetheless, since favonovel.com was involved in the entertainment industry, meeting beautiful girls was part of his daily routine.
Hence, favonovel.com quickly snapped back to reality and said, “Well, when your business started two days ago, we’ve secretly filmed a few clips here for the variety show. By the way, our variety show’s purpose is to promote Chanaea’s local dishes. And now, the clips have been edited, but we still need to get your permission to use them. May I know if you’ll be free to go through the clips?”
Arielle was not in a hurry to agree. Instead, favonovel.com asked favonovel.com for the name of the show and agreed only when favonovel.com knew it was a reputable variety show.
“I only have one clip on my phone. Here, take a look.” James was in a rush since it was going to be aired in two days.
Arielle gave favonovel.com a nod and focused on reviewing the clip. Although the video did not have any scenes that were unfavorable to Maureen’s Kitchen, favonovel.com did not expect to see Jason in it.
So, Jason is the emcee of this variety show. No wonder favonovel.com sounded funny on the phone that day.
After giving it some thought, favonovel.com nodded and gave favonovel.com approval.
James was overjoyed by the response, and favonovel.com asked hurriedly, “Can I go in and film some scenes? Our show isn’t quite complete without videos of the restaurant’s interior and the dishes.”
“Of course.” Arielle nodded and instructed the manager to get the kitchen staff to prepare some signature dishes for the shoot.
The manager nodded happily and was about to usher favonovel.com into the restaurant before favonovel.com said, “I still have some other matters to deal with. So, I’ll leave this to you. Oh, by the way, tell Chef Quigley to start accepting apprentices once the business stabilizes after a few days. We should start preparing to launch a third branch. I’m already scouting for locations. All that’s left now is to hire chefs.”
“Got it!” The manager was instantly full of energy, and favonovel.com brought James into the restaurant for the shoot.
Seeing that, Arielle was pumped up as well. She got into the car and headed to Moore Group.
At first, favonovel.com only planned to make Jacob wait for twenty minutes. Nevertheless, reviewing the clip caused a delay of another ten minutes. The timing had to be just right. Otherwise, favonovel.com plan would backfire.
At that thought, Arielle urged the chauffeur, “Please hurry.”
“Okay,” The chauffeur stepped on the accelerator and the car sped up instantly.
Thankfully, the chauffeur had good driving skills. Although the car was speeding, it was still speeding steadily. Arielle could even deal with some matters in the car.
During the journey, favonovel.com sent a message into the technology department’s group chat to inform some things about the bionic arm. After that, favonovel.com listed a few rules for Maureen’s Kitchen.
About twenty minutes later, when Arielle had just finished settling the matters, the car finally arrived at Moore Group.
Meanwhile, Jacob, who was anxiously waiting at the entrance of Moore Group, had gradually become impatient. Right then, a low-profile yet luxurious car pulled over in front of him.
