Chapter 773
Sweet Subterfuge
âHere, warm your hands.â Marilyn gave Larissa the cup. âI got someone to boll some water for you right now. So, there was a little delay.â
Larissa held the paper cup with both hands. The heat spread from her palms into her body. It made her hunched shoulders relax.
She sighed in gratitude. If it were not for the fact that she would get stares from others, Larissa wished she could press the paper cup to her frozen cheek.
âIf it werenât for you. I wouldâve died.â Larissa said to Marilyn. Iâm not even kidding.â
Marilyn stared at Larissa with those large eyes of hers. âWhat nonsense are you saying? I just asked too, by the way. The customers earlier are fir shed and theyâre paying right now. Weâ.. be able to go in soon. You worât have to freeze any longer.â
This made Larissa come to me at once.
As predictec, the waiter came to inform them that the table was ready for them less than five minutes later.
The thermostat in the restaurant was turned up. It did not take long for Larissaâs frozen arms and legs to move about again.
The waiter led them to their seats. When they reached the center of the hall Larissa and Marilyn noticed Judy and her gang, who were laughing.
Their chatter was very loud. The restaurant was not quiet and Larissa and Marilyn were standing quite a distance away. Still they were able to hear Judy and her gangâs conversation very cleary.
âDid you see her face? Hahahaha! Oh my god, like, It was awesome!â
âI didnât think that Mr. Logan Junior would take Judyâs side. Truth be told. I thought he would side with that bitch and punish Judy, you feel me?â
âIsnât Mr. Logan Junior always a fair man? He is totally my superstar!â
âSpeaking of which, though. Does Mr. Logan Junior have anything going on with that bitch or not? If thereâs nothing going on, why would How would todayâs incident be explained?â he suddenly hire a lemale assistant for Mr. Logan Senior? If thereâs something going on âMaybe they did have something going on. But dicnât W, Logan Junior already say? Workplace violence is not allowed. That bitch did exactly that to Judy, and was caught by Mr. Logan Junior! He must hate her now. Maybe heâl fire that little bitch two days later. We can celebrate here then!â
âFuck yeah!â
âA toast to Mr. Logan Junior âTo Mr. Logan Junior!â
Larissa watched thern raise their glasses. She fell rothing at all.
It was Manlyn, who kept tugging on Larissaâs sleeve, urging her to leave. When nothing happened.
Marilyn comforted her in a low voice.â Thatâs just how they are. They like talking shit about people behind their backs. Donât mind them. Just ignore them in the luture.â
âI know,â Larissa promised, but she was already holding a grudge on the inside.
When she officially took over the company, she would fire them all.
It had to be said that there was a reason that this restaurant was popular. The plating of the dishes was amazing. The taste was insane Marilyn was obsessed with social media. She snapped a picture of each and every dish. Then, she picked the best one to upload online. Larissa was affected by her. She could not help but snap a few pictures too. She posted it all to her own social media and lagged the location, adding a âNot bad!â as a caption.
Less than a minute later, someone liked her post.
