Unrepairable Love

Chapter 558

“Elizabeth,” a supervisor suddenly popped up beside her.

Elizabeth looked up. “What’s up?”

“Mr. Shawn asked me to look after you,” the girl said with a warm, friendly smile.

Elizabeth glanced over at Ivan, who was busy with some elderly folks. He was working hard but still thinking about her.

“Don’t worry about it. If I get tired, I’ll just head back and rest. Let Mr. Shawn know I’ll be at the celebration dinner,” Elizabeth replied honestly.

She didn’t want to bother Ivan. So, after saying that, she decided to leave. She thought it might be nice to find a café to chill in, anything to avoid staying here. She didn’t want Ivan to get distracted from socializing and focus all his attention on her.

Ivan saw Elizabeth leave. Hearing the girl’s message, he felt a bit down. Ivan wanted Elizabeth to accept him, but it seemed like a tough task. But it didn’t matter; he would keep trying.

Elizabeth spotted a nearby restaurant with new decor, and the signature dishes on the sign caught her eye. She decided to go in, planning to have a big meal. There would definitely be drinking at the celebration dinner tonight, and filling her stomach would help her avoid getting drunk.

“Hello, do you have a reservation?” the waitress asked Elizabeth.

Elizabeth shook her head.

“I’m sorry, but without a reservation, we can’t seat you. We’re probably fully booked,” the waitress apologized.

Elizabeth frowned. Was business that good? No reservation, no meal?

“How long would it take if I made a reservation now?” Elizabeth asked directly.

The waitress checked the list and said, “Sorry, miss, we can’t fit you in today. You can book for tomorrow.”

Elizabeth felt disappointed hearing this. The food she wanted today wouldn’t be as appealing tomorrow. She was really craving the foie gras advertised outside.

“Is there no way to make an exception?” Elizabeth asked again.

The waitress looked at Elizabeth and shook her head. “We really can’t make an exception. Our restaurant serves one set menu per table, and if the guests don’t show up, the food goes to waste. We focus on a private kitchen style.”

Elizabeth had no choice but to smile. The restaurant had its rules, and she couldn’t break them.

Elizabeth turned to leave, not forgetting to open Facebook and vent to Lila: [These places are getting more and more exclusive, you can’t even get in without a reservation! So annoying. I really want foie gras. Lila, can you understand the feeling of craving something and not being able to eat it?]

Lila: [I’ll give you three options: one, find another place that doesn’t require a reservation for foie gras; two, book for tomorrow.

Elizabeth squinted, waiting for Lila to send the third option. She had a feeling it might be something ridiculous.

When Lila sent it, Elizabeth sighed. Lila was truly her best friend.

Lila: [Three, tell them you’re the famous Lila’s best friend! You’re from the Percy Family! You’re the mysterious big shot M from Base M! Eating at their place is their honor! I suggest they consider the consequences!]

Elizabeth replied with a bomb emoji and then: [I don’t want to choose any!]

Lila: [I guess you don’t really want to eat.]

Elizabeth: [I do want to eat!]

Lila: [But you can’t, so what now?]

Elizabeth huffed, feeling that Lila was deliberately teasing her.

Elizabeth reached her car and was about to open the door when someone suddenly called out, “Ms. Percy!”

Elizabeth turned around; it was the waitress from earlier. “Hello,” said Elizabeth.

“Hello, Ms. Percy, we suddenly have a table available. Would you still like to try our food?” the waitress asked.

Elizabeth was a bit surprised and thought, ‘The waitress actually came out to ask if she still wanted to eat.’

“Ms. Percy?” Seeing that Elizabeth hadn’t responded, the waitress called out again.
