Chapter 194
“Ms. Gorden, Eliana made a dangerous mistake and needs to be severely punished,” Alissa said, concluding her exaggerated story.
“You should be fixing the situation instead of complaining.”
Rosalie glared at Alissa, and then turned to the guests and apologized, “I’m so sorry. We have made a mistake. We apologize for causing you trouble. We can negotiate compensation. Do you still wish to eat?”
“How could we still eat here? Still, we’re not leaving until you give my boyfriend an explanation.” The woman glared at Rosalie.
Rosalie quickly negotiated the compensation that the restaurant would provide.
As soon as the guests left, Rosalie grimaced and said, “You two, and Jordy, come with me.”
Alissa, Eliana, and Jordy all went to the corner to meet with Rosalie.
“Tell me, what happened?”
“Ms. Gorden, please believe me. I wrote down that the guests at Table 10 can’t eat nuts and I pasted the note on the small blackboard. I even asked Alissa to repeat it to the chef.”
Eliana could barely get the words out of her mouth. She felt incredibly wronged.
“Nonsense! You never told me about it. Besides, aren’t you close to the chef? Why didn’t you tell him yourself?” Alissa retorted.
Eliana fell silent. She couldn’t admit to everyone that she hadn’t spoken to Jordy because she was afraid he would harass her.
“Where is the note you supposedly wrote?” Alissa pressed on.
“It’s on the blackboard.”
Eliana went back to fetch the note, but there was nothing on the blackboard.
“Ms. Gorden, I’ve told you that she is lying,” Alissa repeated stubbornly.
“Enough, Alissa. Be forgiving. We are so busy in the restaurant. It’s understandable that Eliana could forget something. Don’t berate her too much.”
Jordy spoke up, trying to earn Eliana’s goodwill.
Alissa remembered the handsome man who had asked Eliana to serve him earlier.
She couldn’t help but sneer, “I think she forgot because she was too busy flirting with a male customer.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
What? “Alissa, flirting? What do you mean?” Jordy demanded.
“Enough!”
Rosalie glowered at the two of them, and then looked over at Eliana.
“Eliana, in the restaurant business it is extremely important to remember when a guest has a food allergy. Carelessness can put lives in danger. You didn’t take this danger seriously. I’m disappointed in you.”
Eliana didn’t know what to say.
She clearly remembered writing the note. Where had it gone? Had it fallen down?
She bent down and carefully searched the floor, but had no luck. When she was about to stand, a hand pressed against her head.
“Be careful. Don’t hit your head on the table.”
It was Maurice.
Eliana straightened up and gave him a look of surprise. “Why are you still here?”
“I haven’t gotten the chance to order yet. Why would I leave?” Maurice replied indifferently.
Alissa couldn’t stand seeing the two of them talking, and quickly interrupted them.
“Sir, customers are not allowed outside of the dining area. Please return to your table.”
Maurice ignored her and turned to Rosalie. “Rosalie, how are you doing recently?”
“I’m fine. Thank you for asking.”
Rosalie’s serious expression softened and her aloof aura also disappeared.
“Ms. Gorden, do you know this guest?” Alissa asked. “Who is he?”
“He is a regular guest and a friend of the boss,” Rosalie replied.
He knew the boss? It seemed that this handsome man had powerful connections. Alissa was eager to have him.
“Maurice, what are you doing here?” Rosalie asked.
“I am the male customer this lady said that was flirting with Eliana. Since it is my fault that Eliana made a mistake, I thought I should come over,” Maurice said righteously.
“Maurice, you and Eliana…”
Rosalie’s shocked eyes wandered between Eliana and Maurice.
“No, Ms. Gorden. Please let me explain. It’s not what you think. I was not flirting with him.”
Eliana was so anxious that she almost jumped up and down.
Yesterday there was a rumor that she kept a gigolo, and today she was accused of flirting with a guest. Her reputation was ruined.
