As expected from a luxury restaurant, Jack had no problem parking his car.A vast yard adjacent to a lake served as the parking lot for customers.Since it was a holiday, it was evident that many people were visiting the restaurant, judging from the number of cars in the parking lot.When Jack opened his car door and was about to get out, he realized that Matilda was still in the car, seemingly unwilling to move from there."Mom, are you okay?" Jack asked. "If you're feeling unwell, I can order breakfast for you and ask them to bring it here!"Jack's last sentence only made Matilda more nervous. "That's not needed, Jack! I-I'm fine!""Then, what are you waiting for, Mom? We can enjoy breakfast inside!"Matilda's heartbeat quickened. It was the first time in her life she had set foot in this super luxurious restaurant.Especially when she saw the lineup of luxury cars in front of her.Not one of the cars that came to this place was priced below 100,000 RG!Just by seeing who the visito
What?Jack's words made Matilda extremely surprised. She just stared at her son, speechless. "Jack..."Meanwhile, the host, who was sharply glared at by Jack, couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated."Huh, keep pretending! But I've warned you! If something happens inside, especially if you don't pay for what you've ordered, don't blame me if we drag you to jail!"Reluctantly, the host then led them to a large room furnished with luxury furniture and several chandeliers on the ceiling.Although it was a regular room, it was very luxurious."Sit there!" said the host again. "But make sure your ugly clothes don't dirty the chair!" he said, becoming increasingly rude.Jack grabbed the host's hand. "What are you doing?"The host thought Jack was offended by his words."Am I wrong? Even my uniform here is far more expensive than your clothes!" he said more sharply, annoyed by Jack grabbing his arm."I have no time to listen to your words! I do not have the desire to eat my breakfast in thi
The servants had now finished placing all the dishes on the table."Mom, let's enjoy breakfast!" Jack said casually as he took the appetizers.However, instead of doing as Jack requested, Matilda started crying right then and there. She couldn't contain the overwhelming emotions crushing her chest."Mom, are you okay?" Jack stood up from his chair and approached Matilda’s seat"I'm fine!" she replied. "I'm just touched to see what you can achieve now after years of struggling with me!"Those words made Jack even more touched. He imagined how this woman lived in quite difficult conditions after her husband's death."No need to be sad anymore! I promise, I won't make you cry from now on!"Jack's words further moved Matilda.She hugged her son with great joy and pride."Alright! Let's enjoy the food before it gets cold!" Jack said again.Matilda then did as Jack asked.The nervousness and worry in her heart, that he wouldn't be able to pay for the meal in this place, slowly disappeared.
While holding the pen in her hand, Matilda continued to stare at the document on the table.The document was a contract between Matilda and Harry, in which the former agreed to work without being paid by the latter."I'll give you one more chance to think!" Harry said, flashing a sly smile towards her."You don't have to sign this paper as long as you're willing to spend time with me tonight! Just for one night!"Earlier, Harry had asked Matilda to sleep with him for a week, a request that was turned down by the woman.Now the manager lowered his offer. "Just for one night! What do you think? I don't think it's a big deal considering your status as a widow! You're not bound to anyone, so you won't be considered wrong for spending one night with me!"Matilda looked increasingly puzzled. She certainly wouldn't let anyone touch her. "I promised Gunnar that I would never marry again in my lifetime, let alone let someone take advantage of my body!" she thought.But, on the other hand, she
"Mmmm Mr. Jones," Jack said. His tone, which had been fiery and full of anger earlier, softened now. "What's your favorite food, by the way?" "What? What are you talking about? Hahaha!" Harry, not understanding Jack's behavior, laughed even louder. "At first, I thought this foolish boy was an arrogant and naive young man! Turns out, I was wrong!" he thought, still laughing. "He's completely idiotic!" "You don't need to know what kind of cuisine I prefer, what my lifestyle is like, or how much wealth I possess!" Harry boasted of his wealth. "Because it's far beyond your reach! You couldn't even imagine it! Hahaha!" Harry laughed even harder. He truly couldn't understand how Jack went from being somewhat intimidating to looking completely foolish. "So, you're really wealthy, aren't you?" Jack asked again. "So you must have a favorite dish that's undoubtedly delicious, luxurious, and of course, very expensive!" "Yes! Of course! You've guessed it right!" Harry didn't think it would
The hall of the Blue Sky restaurant had become crowded with customers who were curious and interested in the cooking duel.Almost all the remaining customers in the restaurant had flocked to fill the available seats in the hall.On the platform, Jack stood beside the table on the right, while three head chefs stood beside the table on the left.In the middle of the platform, Harry stood holding a microphone in his hand."Ladies and gentlemen," he said with a smile on his face."Today, we received a challenge from a young man who claimed to be the greatest in Rivertown when it comes to cooking! Someone who forces us to submit and acknowledge his greatness! Someone who says that our cooking was just ordinary!"As he said these words, the expression on Harry's face changed, where he put on a sad and tough expression at the same time.He hoped that with his words, he could garner sympathy from the customers present there."Must all Eldoria men act so lowly by flattering people to gain the
Hearing the bell ring, Jack abandoned his intention to pour the sauce onto the plate and instead returned the pot to the stove.Then, he himself carried the large plate where the beef he had grilled earlier was placed to the main table.After that, Jack stood behind the table not far from the chefs. The chefs were at the left end of the table, while Jack was at the right end.As soon as the two plates were placed side by side, the difference in the appearance of the meat prepared by the two competing parties was very clear.The chefs' dishes looked perfectly cooked with a rich coating of spices and red sauce. With other compositions in just the right proportions neatly arranged on the plate, it was hard not to say that it was a masterpiece dish, one of the best that only people could exclusively get at the Blue Sky.Not long after that, Harry walked somewhat hastily from behind the curtain behind the platform and stood right in the middle between Jack and the chefs. As his gaze fell o
The woman pierced a small piece of grilled meat with her fork.However, before she put it into her mouth, she said very loudly, once again, "You told me that you would work for me for free for a few months if it turns out I like your cooking, didn't you? I disagree with that condition!"Jack furrowed his brow. "What do you mean?""I don't want someone like you to continue to wreak havoc in this city," the woman continued, shaking her head. "So I want you to promise that you will leave Rivertown as soon as possible, forever, and never come back!"As she said this sentence, both of the woman's eyes were filled with anger and hatred, as if Jack were not only a societal nuisance tarnishing the town's life but also a criminal making everyone's life unrestful.However, Jack didn't seem bothered by the demand at all. "Fine! I agree!""Everyone here is a witness! You have no reason to deny your words!" the woman continued.She then reluctantly and with a disgusted expression on her face broug
