He’s been working on perfecting a new menu item. I’m here just to make sure he’s okay,” she explained.“What? Really? Zane hasn't slept since last night? Is he okay, Cecil? I think he should take a break,” Emma expressed her concern, her brows knitting together in worry.“No, Ms. Emma, I think it’s best if we let him continue. He asked me to ensure that no one disturbs him,” Cecil elaborated, her tone indicati

The tension between Zane and the Ambers had reached its peak, turning into a dramatic confrontation that caught the attention of everyone in the restaurant.Mrs. Amber sneered, her voice dripping with insinuation, "I can't believe how you've acquired all these luxuries, Zane. Surely, they've been obtained through evil means?"Zane's reply was calm but resolute, "How I came into my possessions is irrelevant to this discussion, Mrs. Amber. What concerns us now is the undue distress you've caused my staff with your behavior."Pointing to her drenched hair, Mrs. Amber retorted, "Look at me! I'm a mess because of your employee's incompetence."Her arrogance seemed to have no bounds as she continued, "But I'm not surprised, after finding out that you're the boss.

"Your bravery earlier was truly admirable."Olivia chuckled, her warm smile lighting up her face. "So, you're saying you didn't mean it when you invited me?" she playfully replied.

Their behavior was completely unacceptable."Curiosity got the best of Olivia, and she couldn't help but inquire further. "But, it seemed like you knew them. Why did you let one of them kneel before you?" She quickly realized her question may have been
