Returning With A Thousand Favors By Flora Isabel

Chapter 52 

“Do you have to be so heartless? Every time you come over, you boss me around!” The man could not help but roll his eyes. 

Simon said nothing more. He only stared at the man calmly. 

The man immediately felt a chill down his spine. He turned around and returned to his stove. 

He wasn’t being cowardly. He was only following his heart. 

The stove was built in the corner of the private room. The guests could watch the entire process of cooking. 

One had to know that people without the ability would not dare to show their skills like this. 

Marina saw the man initially laughing and joking, pick up the kitchen knife, and his temperament instantly changed. 

It was as if the God of Culinary possessed him. He used his knife beautifully. 

When he was cutting the vegetables, it was so fast that he cut them in a split second. 

“Not bad.” Marina was finally interested. 

“You’re interested in this?” Simon’s eyes flickered when he heard this. 

“Not much,” Marina replied casually. 

She wasn’t interested in kitchen knives but quite interested in daggers. 

Maybe she could try the chef’s method when she used her dagger. 

There might be unexpected effects. 

Just as Marina was focused on observing the chopping technique of the chef who wanted to conquer the world, there was a knock on the door. 

“What is it? Didn’t I say not to disturb me unless it’s important?” The man’s actions were interrupted, and his expression suddenly became unfriendly. 

“It’s a guest. She has been insisting on seeing you.” The person who 

came was also troubled. 

That woman was too difficult to deal with. There was nothing he could do! 

“I don’t care what kind of customer that person is. I’ll chase her out if she doesn’t follow the rules here! Otherwise, she’ll have to stay and be my ingredient!” The man’s mood was terrible when his cooking was interrupted. 

With a wave of his hand, the kitchen knife in his hand stabbed into the chopping board in front of him. 

Marina was speechless. 

“Is this restaurant unscrupulous, or is this chef who wants to be a servant?” Marina looked at Simon again. 

“Even if they’re all unscrupulous, I can still walk out of this place with you safely after dinner,” Simon said calmly. 

When Marina heard this, she raised her eyebrows and sat even more leisurely. 

“Boss, that customer said she knows Gordon Campbell,” The person outside the door shouted again. 

Gordon Campbell? 

Upon hearing this name, Marina’s good mood was instantly destroyed. 

That guy was annoying, and he was everywhere she went! 

“Gordon Campbell?” Sheldon frowned. 

“Yes.” 

Sheldon was silent for a moment before glancing at Simon and Marina. 

“You guys wait here first. I’ll be back soon.” 

With that, Sheldon walked toward the door. 

“The chef has already left. There’s no point in us staying here. Do you want to go out and watch the show?” Marina lifted her eyebrows and glanced at Simon beside her. 

“You want to go?” 

 

“A little.” She felt that the chef, who looked like a servant, was not to be trifled with. 

Perhaps there would be a good show to watch. 

“Since you want to go, let’s go,” Simon said. 

Marina immediately got up from her “throne“. 

Meanwhile, someone was still making a fuss at the lobby. 

Sophia was hugging Gordon’s arm with a miserable expression. Her eyes were red from grievance, as if the tears in her eyes would fall at any moment. 

“Gordon, why don’t you forget about it? It’s fine if we wait a little longer. Don’t be angry with them for me.” Sophia pretended to be gentle. 

When Sophia was arguing with the waitress, Gordon called to ask about her meal with her friend. 

Sophia was very pretentious as she revealed her current situation. Gordon immediately rushed over. 

“This is a restaurant, not a stage. If you want to put on your act, go somewhere else!” Sheldon’s expression immediately turned gloomy when he heard Sophia’s words. 

Marina, who followed behind him, lifted her eyebrow with interest. when she heard Sheldon’s words. 

“This imperial chef is not bad!” Marina thought. 

He immediately saw through Sophia’s true colors. 

She had decided to take him as her friend! 

When Sophia saw who it was, she seemed even more afraid and leaned closer to Gordon. 

Sensing her nervousness, Gordon quickly lowered his head and gently patted the back of her hand as if to comfort her. 

“Mr. Brown, I remember that you promised me last time that as long as I came to your place to eat, I would be seated and served with meals I ordered. Are you going back on your words?” Gordon met Sheldon’s 

gaze with a gloomy expression. 

“I’m saying that you can cat whenever you want. I didn’t say that I would even serve your woman.” Sheldon didn’t buy Gordon’s words at all. 

“Gordon, it’s okay. Please don’t get into a conflict with Mr. Brown because of me. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have questioned them just because someone cut in the line. I should have waited obediently.” Sophia quickly tugged Gordon’s sleeve. 

As soon as she said this, the surrounding crowd started gossiping. 

“Isn’t the owner of this restaurant being too unreasonable? Since the lady had taken her number, he should not have let someone else cut in the line. Otherwise, what was the point of getting the number?” 

“That’s right. This boss is probably someone who bullies the weak and fears the strong. He went to serve the big shots. Commoners like us don’t deserve his respect.” 

“The owner is indeed materialistic!” 

Gossips continued. 

Listening to the customers‘ gossip, a trace of smugness flashed in Sophia’s eyes. 

Integrity was an important aspect of doing business. 

She did not believe that this boss could deny his act. 

“Hey! You’ve planted your teeth so quickly that you can speak so eloquently already?” At this moment, a teasing voice suddenly sounded. 

When Sophia heard this voice, her body froze. She looked up and saw Marina walking towards her. 

At that moment, Sophia felt her newly implanted front teeth hurting again. 

She could not help but tighten her grip on Gordon’s arm. 

When Gordon saw Marina, he subconsciously stepped forward to defend Sophia. 

He looked like he was afraid that Marina would hurt Sophia again. Looking at Gordon’s protective act, Marina could not help but chuckle. “If I want to hit her, you won’t be able to protect her no matter what.” Marina looked at him casually. 

His gaze landed on the mask on Sophia’s face again. “Why are you wearing a mask? Do you finally realize your face might disgust everyone?” 

You…” Sophia was so angry that her voice was trembling. 

“By the way, do you like the gift I gave you? Don’t you think those two big golden teeth match your temperament?” Marina continued. 

“You! It’s you? You did this to my teeth?” It blew Sophia’s mind to hear that. 

“Yes! It’s me indeed, dummy!” Marina answered casually and confidently.
