Chuck was really surprised.
Queenie didn’t tell favonovel.com where favonovel.com was working at part-time, so favonovel.com thought favonovel.com was working in a restaurant far away.
He thought favonovel.com was reluctant to say anything because favonovel.com had favonovel.com concerns. Chuck never expected favonovel.com to actually be working part-time in a restaurant in his plaza.
Queenie was originally pretty and innocent looking, and the fact that favonovel.com always put up favonovel.com hairstyle in a bun made favonovel.com look even cuter. However, by wearing a uniform, it managed to compliment favonovel.com curvy body allowing favonovel.com to bring out the sexiness that favonovel.com usually didn’t seem to have.
Chuck was surprised, favonovel.com never knew Queenie could look so attractive.
Yvette was also surprised.
Queenie was favonovel.com student, but favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com family’s financial situation was not good and favonovel.com had been working part time. She observed and found Queenie’s complexion to be slightly pale, as though favonovel.com was too busy to spare some time to eat. All of a sudden Yvette felt empathy towards hardworking, poor Queenie.
Queenie was taken aback with joy when favonovel.com saw Yvette here since favonovel.com was favonovel.com teacher. However, favonovel.com was surprised to see Chuck at first.
She knew that Chuck was probably just here with Yvette to have something to eat and the joy in favonovel.com heart died down. However, upon making contact with Chuck’s eyes, Queenie felt a little embarrassed.
Would favonovel.com look down on herself just because favonovel.com was working as a waitress?
Would favonovel.com stop talking to her?
Queenie’s mind was flooded with worries.
As for Zelda, since favonovel.com was not acquainted with Queenie, favonovel.com was entirely focused on observing the restaurant that imitated hers.
“Teacher, Chuck, here is the menu.” Queenie said softly
Yvette nodded and took the menu. “Haven’t you had dinner yet? Sit down and eat with us…”
“Yes, let’s eat together.” Chuck realized that Queenie was probably extremely hungry, and favonovel.com took pity on her.
“No, the rule here is that we can’t eat together with customers!” Queenie hurriedly shook favonovel.com head.
Yvette said helplessly, “Alright.”
She ordered a few dishes quickly then handed the menu to Chuck.
Chuck was not in the mood to order anything. He shook his head and gave it to Zelda.
Zelda looked at it for a while and then pointed at a few items.
The dishes were ordered.
Queenie said, “Alright teacher, Chuck, wait a minute! I’ll ask the kitchen to prepare your orders quickly.”
While Queenie went to the front desk with the menu, Yvette shook favonovel.com head and said “This girl is too considerate.”
Chuck hesitated. Indeed, favonovel.com was considerate.
Queenie seemed to have borrowed money to study in university, and favonovel.com worked part time every day. Chuck and favonovel.com had a good relationship. Most of the time, the two of them have their meals in the canteen together.
In that case, should favonovel.com allow favonovel.com to work under Yolanda Lane?
The salary is also much higher and favonovel.com doesn’t have to be busy until favonovel.com can’t even enjoy a simple meal.
It would just be a matter of word for Chuck, so why couldn’t he?
Chuck immediately excused himself and got up to look for Queenie.
This restaurant is really like mine, the interior designs, the uniforms, and even the menu are all similar!
The only thing missing is the name…
Zelda was slightly angry. All the concepts in favonovel.com restaurant including the designs and the menu were designed by herself overnight. Now someone had the audacity to copy favonovel.com work and implement them here.
How dare they?
Yvette was a little embarrassed.
If they came here for dinner didn’t it mean that they were supporting the pirated version of Zelda’s restaurant?
“By the way, what was the issue last time that you mentioned that prompted you to thank me like this?”
Zelda’s expression returned to normal. When favonovel.com heard Yvette say this, favonovel.com thought.
Did favonovel.com want to thank me for treating favonovel.com to steak last time?
Was this why favonovel.com was treating favonovel.com to dinner too?
“It was the call that Chuck made to you,” Yvette said.
“Call?” Zelda was suspicious.
She didn’t remember Chuck calling favonovel.com at all.
Yvette was confused when favonovel.com saw Zelda’s expression.
Didn’t Chuck call her?
Why did favonovel.com look so bewildered?
Who did Chuck call then if it wasn’t Zelda?
Who could possibly make the square owner to force Manager Yarn on his knees and fire him?
Zelda quickly scanned the situation and inadvertently looked at the direction of Chuck.
She muttered in favonovel.com heart.
Chuck, didn’t you hide from Yvette when you were at the restaurant last time?
What on earth do you want to do this time?
Are you using me as a shield or something?
Oh well, might as well just cooperate with his lies for now…
Zelda smiled. “Don’t mention what happened last time. It’s just a phone call, isn’t it? It’s okay…”
Yvette, who was in confusion, heard Zelda’s words which dispelled favonovel.com doubts. She thought about it for a while but didn’t really know who Chuck could call apart from Zelda. Now that Zelda admitted it, favonovel.com naturally had no more questions.
“No matter what, thank you so much…” Yvette said seriously.
Zelda shook favonovel.com head. She didn’t know what Yvette was talking about, but favonovel.com couldn’t tell the truth. She could only change the topic.
Both of them were beautiful women of similar composure, so they easily managed to get topics of interest.
Soon, they were smiling together as they chatted away, looking almost like long-lost sisters reunited.
Meanwhile, Chuck was waiting at the door of the kitchen. However, a waiter who saw favonovel.com standing there immediately notified favonovel.com that the kitchen was off-limits to customers.
Chuck explained that favonovel.com was looking for someone, but was met with the waiter’s judgmental look.
He took one look at Chuck and scoffed. “Looking for someone? The only people working in the kitchen are the waiters and the chefs!”
Queenie had just managed to pass the order to the chef before walking out of the kitchen. She saw Chuck standing there and bit favonovel.com lips. She walked over to him.
“Why didn’t you tell me that you’re working part-time here?” Chuck sighed.
Queenie’s face was a sickly pale color as favonovel.com had yet to eat anything. Queenie was Chuck’s only good friend in school, so favonovel.com felt a little bit sorry for favonovel.com seeing favonovel.com work like this.
“I’m sorry…” Queenie lowered favonovel.com head.
To be honest, favonovel.com felt strange recently ever since favonovel.com stayed with Chuck in the same house last time. Then, favonovel.com had worried if Chuck would enter favonovel.com room, but after favonovel.com didn’t, favonovel.com was slightly disappointed instead.
A few days ago, after seeing Chuck’s makeover that complemented his charisma, the strange feeling in favonovel.com heart spread. She almost felt that the Chuck favonovel.com was looking at was no longer the same person with the Chuck of the past. She felt inferior to him.
“That’s not what I mean. Why don’t you change your job, I…” Chuck tried to explain.
He was here to stop Queenie from doing this job.
Queenie was disappointed. Sure enough, Chuck was looking down on her.
“I…. I think it’s good. The salary here is a bit higher than in other places. I will continue to do it.”
“No, I mean…”
“Thank you, the treatment here is pretty good. Plus, I don’t think it’s a big deal to be a waitress, since I can earn money to support myself…” Queenie bit favonovel.com lips.
She felt wronged and favonovel.com voice grew softer and softer as favonovel.com lost confidence.
Chuck felt helpless as favonovel.com knew favonovel.com had definitely misunderstood what favonovel.com was trying to say.
Just when favonovel.com was trying to clear up the situation, a steel, cold voice loomed above them, “Queenie, you don’t want to work anymore, do you? I didn’t expect you to be so lazy and chatting with others when you’re at work. I asked you to come to work, and that’s how you repay me?”
The man who spoke was a middle-aged, bald man in a suit. The fat on his face jiggled as favonovel.com spoke, and favonovel.com walked over to the two of them looking stern and mean.
Queenie panicked. “Manager, I didn’t…”
“What? Do you think I’m blind?” The middle-aged man glared at Queenie. “You violated the rules. I’ll deduct 100 dollars from your salary!”
“Manager, please don’t.” Queenie cried.
Her pay was 16 dollars per hour and favonovel.com worked for 3 hours every day. If favonovel.com lost 100 dollars, favonovel.com work for the past few days would be for nothing.
“No? You can either choose to get a pay cut or get out of here! You choose by yourself! Our restaurant is not short of people!” The middle-aged man snorted disdainfully, looking extremely ferocious due to the meat on his cheeks.
Queenie’s tears flowed down favonovel.com face like a string of broken pearls. She wanted to hold back favonovel.com tears because Chuck was with her. She did not want favonovel.com to see favonovel.com like this, or favonovel.com would feel more inferior.
She bit favonovel.com lip and nodded with a choked voice. “I-I’m not leaving. You can deduct my money…”
“Hmph, smart decision! What are you waiting for? Go clean the tables. You’re so slow at obeying orders, are you trying to fish in troubled waters? Listen carefully, if there’s a next time, it’ll be useless even if you beg me! Leave!” The middle-aged man snorted coldly.
“Yes!” Queenie wiped away favonovel.com tears and bowed before leaving.
However, a warm hand grabbed favonovel.com by the hand and stopped favonovel.com from leaving. Her tears had already stopped, but when the hand grabbed her, favonovel.com tears couldn’t help overflowing.
“Stop working,” Chuck said gently.
The middle-aged man was not happy.
He glanced at Chuck and sneered. “Who are you? Listen here, only I can decide whether favonovel.com goes to work or not. She’ll only be able to work if I allow favonovel.com to. If not, it will be futile even if favonovel.com knelt down and begged me to work!”
“You have such great power?” Chuck narrowed his eyes and said in a cold tone.
“I am the manager of the restaurant. What do you think?” The middle-aged man scoffed arrogantly.
“Manager of the restaurant?” Chuck laughed. “That’s a pretty high rank!”
