His Domineering Lover -
Chapter 534
"That's not what I meant. There has been a misunderstanding between Tracey and me, but now I know that Tracey is a good girl." Aydan didn't want to piss Johan off again. "You should make yourself clear. My granddaughter is the best." Johan looked proud.
There was merry laughter during the dinner. It snowed heavily outside while it was as warm as spring inside the house.
International Airport.
The international flight Candy took arrived when it was half-past eight. Setlla and Lucy quickly came up to greet Candy.
Candy was tall. She wore sunglasses and a black mask. And she kept this trip a secret to prevent her fans from greeting her at the airport.
"Hello, Candy. I'm from Sun..." Setlla introduced herself with a serious look.
Lucy was more relaxed and lively, "Candy, you must be tired after the long flight. I made a special reservation at Majestic. Let's go have some food."
Lucy took all the credits by one sentence, and she mentioned Majestic on purpose.
Majestic was the best western restaurant in City A for its style and cooking level. And Setlla was stunned at what Lucy said. Before their departure to the airport, Setlla and Lucy had a discussion about the dinner tonight.
For Candy had lived abroad for a long time, Setlla proposed that they should book a Chinese restaurant, and Lucy didn't object to this idea.
But now Lucy told Candy about this Majestic thing, which Setlla was completely in the dark until now. 'What a sly woman!' Setlla couldn't help commenting.
Shooting a glance at the woman who took the liberty to hold her arm, Candy said, "I don't like the touches from others."
"I'm sorry." Lucy was anxious to win favor with Candy, but the candor of Candy made her go for wool and came home shorn.
"I don't like western food." Candy was a sophisticate who had met all kinds of persons, and she knew immediately that Lucy was a smart alec.
A wise man didn't like a smart alec, so Candy preferred Setlla, who seemed serious, even dull compared with Lucy.
"Miss Candy, what about Chinese food? I made a reservation in a Sichuan restaurant, which is of high opinion. If you don't like it, there are still other choices. The peak hour for dinner is over, and you could take your time to make a decision."
Setlla sounded sincere, as there was respect and politeness in her tone.
"Szechuan cuisine? I love it! Let's go, right now." Candy adopted Setlla's suggestion.
There was no mention of Szechuan cuisine on Candy's profile, but Setlla inferred from the information that Candy like spicy that Szechuan cuisine would suit her taste.
Candy should have tried enough western dishes in those grand restaurants during her stay abroad. Only a smart aleck like Lucy could talk about style before a superstar like Candy.
Setlla might not be so good at flattering as Lucy was, but she was thoughtful and would spend time on her work.
She proposed Chinese food under deliberations, but Lucy was anxious to impress Candy and made a fool of herself.
"Well, that restaurant is at most ten minutes away from the airport," Setlla said.
"OK. What's your name?" Candy asked with an impression that Setlla was more reliable.
"I am Setlla Shen, Miss Candy. You can call me Setlla." Setlla answered in a polite and respectful manner, which people seldom felt disgusted.
"Got you."
"Candy, I am Lucy." Feeling bad about being ignored, Lucy introduced herself quickly.
"I'm not interested in you. By the way, I don't like smart alecs." Candy shot a cold glance at Lucy and led the way.
Lucy felt awkward, as if being poured over with a basin of cold water.
Candy was happy during the dinner, "I love this traditional Szechuan cuisine! I haven't had them for many years, as the cuisine abroad is improved to suit the taste of the locals." "Miss Candy, you speak Chinese well. Have you ever lived in China before?" Setlla asked.
"Well, I grew up in China. My grandmother is a southerner, good at home-cooked dishes. The dishes you ordered today remind me of my grandmother."
There were some tips on ordering dishes. Lucy ordered those expensive and novel dishes, while Setlla chose home-cooked ones.
Setlla did her job to know that Candy once lived in China; therefore, Setlla assumed that Candy would miss those tastes in her childhood after all these years abroad.
So Setlla ordered home-cooked dishes. And Candy didn't try those dishes ordered by Lucy.
"Now I see. You sound like a local, though you stay abroad for so many years."
"Well, I live abroad for work all these years, and I love this land the most." Candy and Setlla hit it off. Lucy was eager to join their conversations, but only to make things bad or be ignored. Lucy was unhappy. Setlla and Candy still chatted happily on the way to the hotel.
"Miss Candy, take a break. You may still need time to adapt the life here. I live next door. Come to me directly if you have any problems." Setlla sent Candy to her room.
"OK, good night, see you tomorrow." Candy was candid enough to show her mood on her face directly.
It was obvious that she disliked Lucy and favored Setlla; that was, she liked sincerity and hated hypocrisy.
Setlla and Lucy lived in the presidential suite next door. It was their first time to live in a luxury suite like this, though they were here to serve Candy.
Lucy was so angry that this luxury suite failed to improve her mood.
"Lucy, remember that we are at work. Don't be silly again, or we will bear all the consequences if Candy feels offended." Setlla warned.
