Chapter 222

Because Imperial Hotel’s chef, who was more arrogant than a Michelin chef, ran toward them.

Being handsome and attractive, his looks were of a typical European–blonde hair with blue eyes as well as a tall and muscular physique.

“Ah! Lyn, you’re here.”

He wanted to give Ashlyn an enthusiastic French hug.

Suddenly, a hand firmly grabbed him by the shoulders. “She doesn’t like having physical interaction with outsiders.”

Brimming with tears, his shoulder ached from the firm grip that felt like steel tongs.

Howard stared at him in shock. “Who are you? Lyn and I have always been the best of friends!”

“That’s enough. Howard, go and cook the dishes, okay?”

Ashlyn patted Howard’s back to comfort him.

The blonde man with blue eyes felt wronged. “Lyn, he is so violent. I want to protect my human rights! I will definitely sue him!”

“Shut up!” Ashlyn glared at him coldly. “Go back to the kitchen. Do not come out without my permission.”

“Lyn…” As grievances filled him, the manager hurried over and dragged him away. “Chef Howard, let’s go. Ms. Berry came with her friends. Be good and listen to her.”

“Okay.”

Howard was still indignant.

My heart is breaking into pieces. Lyn does not favor me anymore. I’m so pissed!

“He is extremely gifted in cooking, but he has some defects when it comes to communication skills.”

Ashlyn glanced at Lucas before looking at everyone else. “I hope you don’t mind. Please don’t treat him any differently.”

“No wonder he’s so difficult to be invited. So many influential people have tried to meet him but he declined all their requests.” Winsor nodded. “But he is quite fluent in English.”

The chef, Howard, looks like… there’s something wrong with his brain at first sight. He seems to be a five-year-old intellectually. The manager still needs to coax him…

At that moment, the waiters started serving the dishes.

When they saw Ashlyn, they were very courteous toward her. Although the Imperial Hotel was known for its excellent service, it was apparent that the waiters were extra passionate to her.

The way the waiters looked at Ashlyn and the joy that radiated from their bones could be seen by those present.

Almost everyone could sense that they were giving Ashlyn special treatment.

It was as if they had met their idols.

Lucas was used to this kind of situation because Tinsor, Blair, and Naomi had been treating Ashlyn with the same attitude.

“Ms. Berry, all the dishes are served. Please let me know if you need anything else.” Upon serving the last dish, the waiter said while bowing respectfully.

“You may leave now,” Ashlyn said.

“Please enjoy your meal at Imperial Hotel.” The waiter left after saying this.

Winsor quickly took a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it in her bowl. “Try this. It looks scrumptious.”

Looking at the pork ribs, she was stunned for a second before nodding and saying thanks.

Blair was unable to keep his calm when he saw Winsor serving his sister-in-law.

The Jaquin brothers are so ambitious. They are like hooligans who always keep a distance from everyone. It’s a surprise that Winsor served Ashlyn food!

Anxious, he took a glance at Lucas, trying to hint at him. Lucas, hurry up and serve Ashlyn food! The guy is trying so hard to please your wife!

Winsor took a piece of vegetable for himself. His delicate face had a faint smile on it as his gaze fell on Ashlyn’s calm face.

The smile on the corners of his lips grew wider.

My goddess has eaten the pork ribs I served her!

Tinsor gave his brother a thumbs up in secret! You did well!

Lucas pursed his lips. It was as if his pair of cold eyes could look through people’s secrets; it made people feel vulnerable. Meanwhile, anger grew inside him as he saw the pork rib.
