Chapter 169 Can’t Be In A hurry
“No, I have nothing else to do here. My parents miss me very much, so I want to go back as soon as possible.”
At the mention of that, Cierra’s expression remained completely unchanged. She just talked to Freddy indifferently.
Freddy thought that Dr. Charles had refused directly, and his face immediately changed. “Hey! That old bas*ard! He’s eating so happily, and now he won’t do it for others! Cierra, wait for me. I’ll go find him right now!”
“Don’t.”
Cierra hurriedly stopped him. With a helpless expression, she slowly explained, “Dr. Charles didn’t reject me, but I’m afraid that today’s dishes aren’t to his liking. I don’t think it’s good to keep disturbing others. My brother is also looking forward to me going back early. Maybe my mother will slowly get better, and there’s no need to trouble Dr. Charles. After all,
he’s old.”
Cierra was telling the truth. Cierra was not someone who liked to trouble others. She could ask someone for help once or twice, but she would be embarrassed if she asked too many times.
If she really annoyed Dr. Charles, it would cost the friendship of Freddy, so she couldn’t mess up the friendship because of her own private affairs.
As for her mother’s illness, since it was caused by depression, it could not be rushed.
As soon as Cierra finished speaking, Freddy’s face darkened, but he didn’t say anything else. He seemed to agree with Cierra’s thoughts.
Thinking that Adam and the others were still waiting for her, it was not appropriate for her to talk too much with Freddy. Cierra regained her composure and said, “I still have friends waiting for me. I won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll go first.”
“Okay. Go and have fun.”
Freddy nodded. Thinking of the parting, he couldn’t help but feel sad. “Don’t take it to heart. In short, L’Opera Restaurant will always be your home.”
“I know. Please think about what I said.” Cierra said.
She sincerely suggested that Freddy go with her. Except for L’Opera Restaurant, there seemed to be
nothing left in New York for her to miss.
As for Ernest, she would remember him in her heart, but she was unwilling to step into the Trevino family again because of him.
Humans were selfish. She was not a saint, and there was no exception.
She just wanted to take good care of the living. If Freddy was willing to go to Los Angeles with her, then there would be no one in New York that she could worry about.
After all, Cierra was worried about people, not objects.
She could come back to L’Opera Restaurant every once in a while to take a look. Furthermore, with the advanced network, she could also contact Layton online. She could even open another branch for Freddy in Los Angeles.
However, old people miss their homeland. If Freddy was unwilling, Cierra could understand. William’s company was still in New York, so Cierra could come back from time to time.
She wouldn’t seal herself completely for the sake of the people she didn’t want to see so that she
would never set foot in New York.
She wouldn’t be so stingy.
When she returned to the private room, the dishes on the table had just been served. Adam teased. her for deliberately coming in at this time so that she could eat immediately.
“I’m not. It’s just a coincidence.”
Cierra rolled her eyes at Adam. When she closed the door and was about to take a seat, she realized that Adam and his nurse had already sat down on her seat. There were only four chairs in total, and now there was only one seat next to Bruno. There was no other choice for Cierra but to sit downL
The four of them ordered a total of six dishes. During this period, there was a portion of Braised Chicken with Red Wine, which Cierra had cooked for Dr. Charles. She had specially asked Layton to bring the dishes to them.
“This restaurant is really worthy of New York’s Light! The taste of this Braised Chicken with Red Wine is exactly the same as that of my hometown. It’s amazing! My mother came to New York last month and made Braised Chicken with Red Wine for me. I didn’t expect that one day I would be able to eat the taste of home in the restaurant!”
After tasting the dish, the nurse sitting opposite suddenly exclaimed in surprise and excitement. After eating a piece of chicken, she almost jumped up. “I’ve heard of the reputation of L’Opera Restaurant on
the Internet before, but I’ve never been able to make an appointment. Today, I really feel that it’s worthy of its name!”
The nurse’s name was Yvonne Boyli, and she was a graduate student at New York University Hospital. Her tutor was Adarn.
Hearing her words, Cierra paused and looked up at her. “Is this dish from your hometown? Do you think… it tastes authentic?”
Yvonne nodded in surprise. “It’s very authentic! I’ve eaten in many restaurants in New York, but none of them tasted like the taste in my memory. My father runs a restaurant in my hometown.
How can I not be familiar with the taste?”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help picking up another piece as soon as she finished eating. It could be seen that she really liked it.
However, it was also this action that caused Cierra’s heart to sink.
If she had told the nurse that she was the one who had made this dish, the nurse might have said that for her sake.
But in fact, she didn’t say anything. This dish was served together with other dishes. There was nothing special for them.
It was the same dish. One person said it was authentic, but another person said it was not. Then the answer was very obvious. It was just as she had guessed. It was just a kind of euphemistic refusal from Dr. Charles.
Although Cierra had expected the result, she had not truly received Dr. Charles’s reply. In the end, he had been lucky. Now that the contrast was clear, it also proved that she had truly been rejected.
“Is there anything wrong with this dish?”
Suddenly, a gentle and elegant voice came to her ears.
Cierra looked in the direction of the voice and met Bruno’s amorous eyes through his glasses. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
The two brothers were handsome. One was wild and aggressive, while the other was gentle and elegant. The most striking thing about then was their similar eyes and brows. They were always affectionate, which could easily make people fall in love with them.
With this pair of eyes, if they were to shoot a movie, they would be natural born love saints.
Perhaps Bruno himself knew that with such a pair of eyes, it was not suitable for him to talk about business, and it was easy for others to misunderstand. Therefore, he wore a pair of flat glasses on
his nose.
At this moment, Cierra was very close to him, and she could look straight into his eyes.
However, she had seen Ryan many times, so there was not much emotion when looking into a pair of similar eyes. She only felt a little embarrassed.
Bruno probably knew that he had been rude, so he explained, “I saw that you were a little unhappy after asking about this dish, so I asked presumptuously. If you have anything to worry about, you can tell me. It’s not good to keep it to yourself. Moreover, Adam is your good friend for many years. Maybe he can help you out if you tell him.”
Adam also nodded and said, “Yes, what Bruno said is right!”
It had to be said that Bruno was a very charming person, and his tone was almost aggressive. He was so gentle that Cierra almost wanted to tell him what was hidden in her heart.
If they talked a little longer, not only the matter of the dish, but also the other private affairs would be exposed.
