Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family
“Where’s Grace?, I haven’t seen her in a long time and I miss her.”
“Where’s Mirabella? I didn’t see her.”
“Where are the people from the Panter family? I heard they’re coming.”
Olga knew that most of these people came for the Panter, family. After all, in the past, the Panter family’s wealth was more than twice that of the Melton family. Not only other people, but the Melton family also wanted to establish a relationship with the Panter family.
“Waiter, bring some drinks for the guests first.” Olga waved to the waiter nearby.
But the waiter stood there without moving, as if he hadn’t heard Olga’s words.
Olga felt a little awkward, then raised her voice and said in a friendly tone, “Waiter, could you please bring some drinks for the guests? They might be thirsty.” “Sorry, madam, I am the lobby manager and I need to welcome some important guests. Please wait a moment, I will send you some extra bottles of wine as an apology.”
After hearing this, Olga’s face turned even more unpleasant. She needed the manager to send drinks?
Just as she was about to lose her temper, Yolanda gently said, “Then we’ll have to trouble you, manager.”
The manager did not respond to her, but bent down and spoke into the walkie–talkie, “Is everything ready? The guests are about to arrive, hurry up and line up.” Yolanda, who was ignored, felt very uncomfortable, but because there were many people present, she could only hold.back..
The guests chatted with Demetrius and Olga for a while, but seeing that the food was not being served and there were no drinks or snacks on the eleven large tables, they started to feel puzzled.
One of the older ladies couldn’t help but ask, “Olga, when will the food be served? My grandson is hungry, he’s crying and wants to eat.”
They had been here for ages, already a good forty minutes.
“Sorry, it’s just so packed in here, the kitchen can’t keep up. Bear with us a bit longer, your food will be out soon.”
The older lady heard this and thought, don’t pull her leg, this was the Dawn Restaurant, with so many people in the kitchen, how could they possibly be overwhelmed?
From the manager’s words earlier, it seemed like they were waiting for some important guest?
So, just because there was an important guest, they were not going to serve them, the regular customers?
Especially since Olga had splashed out and booked the whole floor, she was hardly a regular customer, right? Why hadn’t even drinks been served yet? This was so weird.
Olga waited a bit longer, saw the manager talking with a group of waiters. Unable to hold back her frustration, she walked over, her anger building up inside. “Manager, when will we get our food? Our guests are starving.”
“Madam, I’m really sorry, actually we were not planning on serving other guests today, it was you and Mr. Melton who insisted on dining here and insisted that we clear out eighty–eight spots for you.” said the manager.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone to the trouble of setting up eleven large tables and marking out a spot for them to sit.
“Our guests tonight are very important, our superiors have made it clear that they mustn’t be neglected, all our efforts should be focused on them.”
“So you mean, if they haven’t arrived, we can’t start eating?”
“Not like that, madam, I still took a risk to mark out this spot for you, if the executives found out that we served you in advance and neglected the important guests, we might lose our jobs!”
Demetrius and Yolanda watched from a distance, saw that Olga seemed to be getting nowhere, hurried over, before they could say anything, they saw the manager receive a phone call, the important guest had arrived!!!
The manager, along with all the restaurant staff, went out in unison to greet them.
Olga wanted to see who this important guest of the evening could possibly be.
All she saw was a beautiful girl stepping out of a luxury van, followed by a nanny.
That figure, that temperament.
Before Demetrius and Olga could even process what was happening, they saw the manager leading dozens of employees respectfully greeting Mirabella. Then, they separated and stood on both sides, bowing as they awaited Mirabella’s entrance.
Mirabella thought, surely Carl had told them about the VIP coming tonight, that was why they made such a big fuss.
She finished work later than usual today, her parents and others had arrived first, had the driver pick her up in the van, didn’t want her to be bored on the road alone, even had Edith accompany her.
“Ms. Bella, judging by this scene, Mr. McMillian really values you.” Edith finished speaking with a smile, then suddenly noticed three familiar figures on the left side of the entrance.
Weren’t they the three people they accidentally ran into after dinner at the restaurant last time?
They were so keen to ask about Ms. Bella’s identity.
If she remembered correctly, they seemed to be Ms. Bella’s former foster parents and sister?
As Mirabella stepped through the entrance, she saw them. She glanced at them briefly before looking away, treating them as if they were invisible.
Demetrius was so surprised he couldn’t believe it, “How is Bella here?”
Olga was also a bit shocked, “She’s the important guest tonight?”
“The nanny behind our sister seems like the one we met before, right?”
Last time, the nanny mentioned something about Mirabella’s real parents preparing loads of fancy gifts to show their gratitude to the Melton family for raising their kid all these years, but they didn’t accept any.
Did it mean Mirabella’s biological parents were filthy rich?
As Yolanda pondered over this, she subconsciously clenched her fists, feeling quite peeved.
Mirabella stepped into the VIP elevator amidst warm welcomes. As the elevator doors closed, she glanced up and caught sight of Zachary’s stunned look from afar. Zachary had just reached the entrance when Mirabella’s grand entrance froze him in his tracks.
Why were all the restaurant staff greeting Mirabella?
Was that her nanny trailing behind her?
If he was not mistaken, she just got out of a mobile home worth millions.
The lobby’s guests were visibly surprised and started to whisper.
“Isn’t that Mirabella? She didn’t even say hello, not even to her own parents standing right in front of her. She didn’t even spare them a second glance.”
“What’s going on? Why is Mirabella acting so aloof, as if she doesn’t know any of us?
“What’s the deal? Didn’t Olga say her daughter did well on her exams and was treating all her friends and family to dinner? Why did Mirabella head straight upstairs?”
“Is there some surprise waiting for us upstairs? Is Mirabella setting up something up there?”
“No way, Mirabella just now looked like she didn’t recognize any of us.”
“The floor Mirabella went to is the eighth floor, the highest and best place in the entire restaurant. It has one private room and a huge terrace. They say the view there is fantastic.”
Everyone was intrigued by the last remark, asking, “How do you know?”
“We have a relative who’s doing well in Summerfield. He wanted to book a private room, but couldn’t. He told us about the eighth floor, even saying that it’s worth paying 50,000 dollars just to take a look.”
“How did Mirabella get up to such a posh place?”
“What is going on?”
Many guests were asking Olga, who was still in shock, her mind filled with Mirabella’s aloof face when she passed by.
A sense of unease was growing stronger.
Just how influential, wealthy, and capable was Mirabella to get to the eighth floor?
“Zachary, you came?” Yolanda’s voice successfully diverted everyone’s attention. She walked up to him, holding his hand and asked with a warm smile, “Why are) you standing there like a statue? Come on in.”
