Chapter 1390

The café by the road had recently become a very popular café in Richburgh.

The special thing about it was that it was by the road. In fact, it wasn’t really by the road. There was actually a road stretching around it.

The owner of this shop was a holdout. When the government tore down the buildings in this area, he decided to build a road around the shop.

That resulted in a very interesting sight. Either way, it was clear to the original owners of the property that they could no longer live there. The only thing they could do was to rent out the property.

Over the years, they had many tenants.

However, the most successful one that became famous was this cafe.

Wealthy socialites, white-collared workers in the city, students, and even tourists from all over the world, would come to visit this café. It somehow became one of Richburgh’s attractions. It came to the point that those who didn’t drop by the café were considered to have never stepped into Richburgh.

Business at the café was therefore booming.

Cecilia had recently been busy thinking about what she could do to step out of her identity of being a rich heiress of the Jarvis family, who was naive and knew nothing about the world.

Now that she had a chance to visit this café, she wanted to check out its business model. The moment she opened the door, her attention was immediately drawn to the Terkland-style furnishings in the shop.

The vintage wave had passed. Simple minimalistic decorations became outdated fast. Thus, shops of many kinds began renovating themselves in many strange styles.

The furnishings of this shop were very special, unforgettable even after just one glance.

There were too many people in the café, just like what a tourist attraction should be.

Cecilia stood at the door, subconsciously looking at the seats by the windows so that she could catch a glimpse of her blind date. All she could see were the backs of many heads.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

“Please excuse me,” she said as she tried walking into the café, resigned to the fate that she could only see her blind date when she found his seat.

Cecilia stood at the door, shouting at the people queuing up to buy coffee. “Thank you, please excuse me, thank you…”

When she finally managed to squeeze into the café from the entrance, she felt like the air was fresher.

Cecilia took a deep breath. She was about to order coffee, but her hand paused midair.

There were too many people in the queue. Perhaps she should wait for a while before ordering.

The blind date was important. She could drink coffee anywhere, anytime.

The thing was, she had read excellent reviews about the coffee here. Now that she was here, she really wanted to try it.

Seeing the long, snaking queue, she gave up.

“I wonder who chose such a place as a venue for a blind date,” Cecilia pondered as she walked on.

“Forget it. This was planned by Mom. She probably doesn’t have much experience planning dates.”

She thought to herself, while trying to tolerate the noisy environment. She soon found the seat Sue told her about, and sat down.

“Pardon me,” a waitress said, moving fast despite the huge crowd. She had appeared the moment Cecilia sat down. “I’m sorry, miss, but someone has already reserved this table. Please find another table.”

No wonder this seat was empty in such a huge, crowded café.

Cecilia looked up and flashed her signature, sweet smile. “Excuse me, but I’m the one who reserved this table.”

The waitress shook her head. “That’s not possible. The one who reserved this table is a regular here.”

Cecilia was embarrassed, but the waitress kept bowing and apologizing. “I’m so sorry, miss. Someone really reserved this table. This regular of ours comes every day.”

The regular would definitely be upset to see the table gone.

Cecilia didn’t want to put the waitress in a difficult spot. She thought about it, then called Sue.

Sue said, “I didn’t make any reservation. I just told him to sit by the window. Don’t you youngsters love sitting by the window?”

Forget it.

This was her first time.
