Chapter 1068

“Why are there so many flower stands? Who sent them?”

Hank was a little jealous.

Liberty was just a woman he threw away, and she opened a small breakfast diner with the money she took from him. However, there were long rows of flower stands on the opening day.

“There’s no space for my flowers? Then I’ll get a re—”

Hank was just about to say that he would get a refund from the flower shop, but Olivia immediately interrupted him. She took the flower stand from his hand and glared at him fiercely, then said to Liberty with a smile, “There’ll be space if you squeeze it in.”

She took the flower stand outside and placed it at the spot of the stand that Duncan sent. If not for the fact that Serenity and Zachary, two people who she could not afford to mess with, were present, she would have smashed the flower stands sent by Duncan and thrown them away.

Liberty did not want to have a fight with Hank and Olivia on the first day of business, so she turned a blind eye as long as they did not go too far.

“Liberty, I’m here to join in on the fun!”

Elisa’s voice had always arrived before she did.

A missy like her never got up early in the morning so it was already considered early for her to come over now.

“What are you two doing here?”

Her beautiful brows knitted when she saw Hank and Olivia when she entered. Without waiting for an answer, she warned them, “Why are you two here? You’re not welcome here. Get out right now or I’ll call someone to drag you out!”

“M-Ms. Stone, we’re here to support Liberty’s store opening, not to cause trouble for her. We wouldn’t dare mess with her.”

Hank was quite afraid of Elisa.

White-collar workers like them heard about Ms. Stone’s unpleasant temper.

“You’re not here to cause trouble? Then have you finished eating? If you have, then pay the bill and leave!”

Although Elisa was a little capricious, she understood that it was not appropriate to pick a fight during the opening day of a store. Nevertheless, she was already being very polite to Hank and Olivia.

“We’re done, we’re done. We were just about to settle the bill and leave.”

Hank pressed his mother down and did not allow her to speak. He took out his wallet, drew out a hundred-dollar bill, and handed it to Liberty. “Keep the change.”

Liberty was just about to say something when Elisa swiftly snatched the hundred-dollar bill. Hank slipped away quickly and ran out with his mother.

“At least they have the common sense to leave faster, otherwise I’d have kicked them out.”

Elisa looked at the shoes she was wearing and added as an afterthought, “I’m not wearing high heels since I drove here today. Otherwise, I guarantee they’ll be in pain for three days if I kick them.”

She handed the cash to Liberty and said, “You don’t have to be nice to people like them. If they come to you for breakfast, then charge them money. Them coming here will affect your mood too, so it’s not worth it unless you charge them more.”

Serenity laughed. “They didn’t eat anything.”

Elisa paused. “They didn’t? Then think of this hundred bucks as pocket money for Sonny to buy snacks.”

She shoved the money into Liberty’s hand.

Then, she picked a seat as if nothing happened and grinned. “I’d like...” She glanced at the wall and picked one out at random. “Eggs benedict please.”

She did not know what to eat either.

She was just ordering something for Liberty’s business.

Elisa came late, so she had the same assumption as Hank and thought the store was not doing well.

“Sure, just a moment. I can cook for you immediately since you came at this time. There were too many customers during the morning rush hour, and there were many orders for both dine-in and takeout. I was so busy I couldn’t catch my breath.”

Elisa blinked. It seemed that she was mistaken.

Well, with the Hunt sisters’ cooking skills, there was no way a restaurant they ran would have bad business.

“Hank, Hank—”

Jessica suddenly rushed in like a madwoman.

The next moment, bodyguards from the York family as well as those hired by Duncan to patrol the streets swooped in.
