Greg’s temper flared up at once. “What’s the matter with you guys? If they cause

trouble, does that make them right?” he scolded as he grabbed his chef’s hat and put it

on.

He went on berating, “What’s the big deal about being a big star? Is Mr. Palmer that remarkable? There are plenty of people who are eating at my restaurant. Does she think my restaurant is going to close down without her patronage? If we lack one or two customers, docs she think we can’t survive? If she wants to eat here, let her eat. Otherwise, tell her to leave. Refund their money and ask her to scram! Why do you bother coming to me with such a trivial matter? How annoying is it!”

Madison couldn’t help but sigh. “Greg.”

Greg turned around and, with a meek expression. “Madison.”

Madison was exasperated. “You need to change that temper of yours. When guests cause trouble, you should first ask why. You’re the owner of Rose Garden. If they have issues, who else should they turn to if they don’t go to you?”

“You’re right, Madison.” Greg’s temper vanished under Madison’s reprimand, and he nodded earnestly.

He turned to the other chef and asked, “Tell me what happened.

The chef was still new, and it was the first time he saw his teacher in such a gentle mood. And it was because of the pretty young lady.

He was stunned for a moment before explaining the situation. “Miss Hale came with a friend today. After the dishes were served, she wasn’t satisfied with their taste, claiming that the taste was wrong. She specifically named you and insisted that only you cook. She wouldn’t eat anything made by others! We explained that today you weren’t entertaining guests, but she wouldn’t listen and started causing a scene. Now, she’s filming a video, accusing our restaurant of cheating and bullying her. She is a big star with many fans. We’re afraid of trouble, and that’s why we came to find you.”

Afraid of being scolded by Greg, the other chef retreated a step, casting a glance at Madison, signaling to her for help.

Greg didn’t scold him but snorted. “Film if she wants. I’m not afraid of her! If every guest wants me to entertain them, I’d be exhausted. I have so many students. Why do I go to the trouble of teaching them if it wasn’t to help me out? Madison, what do you Say?”

Madison traced a finger along the rim of her glass and pointed out, “You’re right to say that, but kicking people out without asking why they’re causing trouble is also wrong.

Mon,

Chapter 19

Your student mentioned that the big star has a great influence. Missing one customer may not matter, but what about hundreds or thousands? It’s the age of the internet, and even if you’re right, negative publicity can turn things around. You have your culinary skills, so it won’t affect you if this restaurant closes down. But what about your

restaurant staff?”

Greg was only interested in culinary skills and developing new dishes. He had no idea about the innuendoes of what was going on.

But since Madison spoke, he earnestly listened. “What do you suggest, Madison?”

Madison looked at Greg. “What do you think? She’s a customer, so let’s listen to her demands. If she wants to film, let her film, and we can film along with her. We’re all civilized people, so we should talk things through. But with your temper…”

She paused, looking up and seeing Greg eagerly waiting for her to continue.

Unable to hold back a smile, Madison stood up. “I’ll

Greg clapped his hands together. “That’s a good idea! Let’s go. We shall see that what’s- her-name famous star and talk some sense to her!”

Madison teased, “After all, I have to work for you in a few days. It’s a chance to showcase myself for the boss’s interview.”

For this trip to Sidovor City, Madison stayed not just for work but for a more important reason. She was there to invite the renowned doctor Raymond Norton to come out of retirement and seek a prescription from him to cure her mother’s illness.

Since her mother lost Madison due to an earthquake many years ago, she has been in a state of men tal confusion, burdened by self-blame.

Over the years, her b*dy had been weakened by her m ental state. Even after Madison was found and she had seen numerous doctors, her mother didn’t show signs of

improvement,

Doctors in the industry had recommended consulting Raymond to help her mother. But after Raymond’s retirement, he was nowhere to be found. He could, however, sometimes be seen in all kinds of food festivals.

Besides that, Raymond was also an eccentric.

Since his retirement, he only saved lives depending on his mood. He stated that life and death were predestined, and seeking him out was pointless. He asked everyone not to come looking for him since he was retired.

Occasionally, when he was in a good mood, he would extend a helping hand. Even if

the person was already close to death, Raymond was able to save him..

Madison spent a lot of time researching and discovered that Raymond frequented Rose Garden a few times every year.

So, instead of searching for Raymond everywhere, she decided to wait patiently at Rose

Garden.

While it wasn’t guaranteed that Raymond would agree to help, at least finding him was a step closer to hope.

Accompanied by Greg, Madison went out.

From a distance, they could hear Sally’s displeased voice. “What’s wrong with your restaurant? 1 spend so much money for a meal, and if I don’t get the service I want, can’t

say anything? Why isn’t Mr. Holland in the kitchen? If a chef doesn’t cook, what kind of chef is he? Did he send his students out to deceive the customers?

“Anyway, this is what I have to say today. I’m not satisfied with the taste of the food. Rose Garden must give me an explanation! A meal is so expensive, and they even limit the number of customers. Do they think we consumers are idiots? I think your entire restaurant is hyped up by marketing. I’m going to report you!”

In front of Sally was an employee in Rose Garden’s work attire..

In front of the camera, the employee couldn’t say a word and could only apologize repeatedly. As soon as she heard that Sally was going to report them, she looked scared, appearing as if she was in the wrong.

Madison walked over a few steps and stood in front of the service staff. “Miss Hale, please calm down.”

“Calm down? Why should 1- Upon recognizing the newcomer, Sally’s voice abruptly. halted.

Is this… Madison? The ugly duckling who wouldn’t even dare to lift her head… How did she transform herself into this?’ Sally thought.

Sally had expected to see a pitiful creature, all disheveled, while she hung out with street hooligans.

However, Madison not only didn’t look as wretched as she imagined but appeared even more radiant and dazzling!

How could this be?

How could the bi tch Madison look so good? How could she become more beautiful than her?

Jealousy made Sally’s face look unnatural, but she managed to restrain herself in front of others and forced a smile. “Isn’t this my sister? Why are you here? Oh, right, I forgot you’ve already been kicked out by Mom. You’re not my big sister anymore, right… Miss?”

Madison ignored the barb in Sally’s words and maintained her smile. “I work here. Is there anything Miss Hale is dissatisfied with regarding Rose Garden’s food? If you

provide helpful sugges we’ll offer a complimentary meal to the guest”

“You work here?” Sally exclaimed. The envy that had turned into resentment vanished suddenly. She was elated when she realized that Madison had found such a job.

She always knew it. Without the Hale family, Madison, that despicable person, wasn’t glamorous anymore. She knew that Madison would probably end up working in a hotel.

or as a waitress.

How pitiful.

Sally sighed lightly. “I advised you back then to study well in school. Our family sent. you abroad, but you didn’t bother earning a degree there. Now, you can only work as a waitress here. Must be tough for you, right?”
