On the other end, Arielle was checking the monthly report at Maureen's Kitchen.
To her surprise, the normal-sized restaurant actually had an operating cash flow of three hundred thousand.
Although three hundred thousand was not a lot to her, it was a hefty sum for an ordinary restaurant.
“Thank you for your hard work. I've seen the report, and it looks fine.” Arielle handed the report back to the manager.
At that, the manager let out a relieved sigh. “Mr. Nightshire has askedto manage this restaurant well. I'm glad that you're all
right with the report.”
When Arielle heard that, she was silent for a moment before flashing the manager a smile. “Have you ever thought of making the
restaurant a chain store?”
“A chain store?” The manager shook his head. “I have never thought of that.”
“Maybe you should think about it. I'm thinking of making Maureen's Kitchen into a restaurant chain across the country. If things go
well, perhaps we can make it a restaurant chain across the globe.”

The manager's eyes lit up instantly. “Really?”.
Arielle nodded. “This restaurant means a lot to me, and | hope to expand its business. However, you'd have to communicate with
the chef to cup with more
signature dishes before anything else.”
The manager patted his chest in glee.
“Don’t worry. I'll tell our head chef later. I'm sure he'll be as happy as | am to hear this.”
Just then, a server entered and informed them, “There's a foreigner outside who can’t read our menu. However, we can’t speak
Ustranasion either, do you think that...”
“I'll go.” After taking a few steps, Arielle turned to the manager and added, “If we're going to make it big, then we'll have to
revamp the menu. From now on, we'll have both Chanaean and Ustranasion on the menu. It’s best for us to have pictures as well.”
“Sure, you can leave this to me!”
Arielle nodded before following the server out to the dining area.
“Over there.” The server pointed in a direction.
Right as Arielle turned to look, the customer excitedly rushed over to greet her, “San? Is that you? Oh my god! | never thought it'd
be you!”
Arielle’s mind blanked out for a second before it registered Thomas’ wrinkly, bearded face.
“P-Professor Harlem.”
Thomas enthusiastically grabbed her hand tightly—it
was as if he was afraid she would flee the scene. Then, he asked in a trembling voice, “Be honest with me. Was it you that | saw at
Jadeborough University 7”
“Professor Harlem, please let go of my hand first...”
“If you don’t admit to it, | won't let you go.”
Arielle had witnessed first-hand how stubborn Thomas could be, for it had been numerous times when he had bugged her for days
just to solve a question.
Thus, she had no other option but to say, “Yes, it’s me. Could you please letgo now?”
Thomas finally let her go as he curiously asked, “Why are you at Jadeborough University? When did you cback to Chanaea?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It's been a few months. I'm back to deal with sprivate matters. Are you here to eat? This is my restaurant, actually. Why
don’t | treat you to a meal? I'd like to ask a favor from you.”
“What is it?”
“Could you please keep my identity a secret?”
“Of course! Still, you have to tellwhat you're doing at Jadeborough University. You can’t have been hired as a tutor by them,
right? I'm telling you now. | was first to invite you to beca tutor at Maxwell University. You can’t just start working for
Jadeborough University!”
A weak smile appeared on Arielle’s face at that. Soon, the two were eating and chatting away at a table. She briefly told him about
how she was at Jadeborough University to look for someone, but she also added that she could not tell him why she was keeping
her identity a secret.
Nevertheless, Thomas was quick to promise. “No problems. I'll just say that I've cacross a student who speaks Lightspring
Ustranasion well. However, | have to say that Jadeborough University really isn't as good as Maxwell University.”
With that, Thomas began telling Arielle about Wendy's incident.
Arielle was surprised; she never thought Wendy would make a lowly mistake like that.
Still fuming, Thomas said, “If she’s not capable enough to do the translation, she can just keep learning. However, it's a completely
different matter to not be honest. A student like her would never be accepted by Maxwell University.”
