A Relentless Pursuit for Love novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78

Yoel smiled. “What a pleasure to be getting a ‘thank you’ from you.”

“As long as you stop saying nonsense, I will still be polite to you. After all, I’m someone with good manners.” Sage unscrewed the cap, tilted her head back, and drank deeply from the bottle.

The tilt of her head exposed her graceful swanlike neck, and Yoel was once again struck by her beauty.

“It’s almost lunchtime. Are you hungry? Let me buy you lunch.”

Taking another sip of water, Sage replied, “Let me buy you a meal instead.”

Since Yoel had planned to give her a horse, Sage wanted to repay him by buying him a meal.”

Sage brought Yoel to a famous Japanese restaurant in town. As it was lunchtime, there was a long queue of customers waiting in line.

They’re doing really well, aren’t they? I’ve been wanting to try this place, but I heard that they don’t accept reservations and only serve a limited number of customers every day. Though I’m not sure if their food is as good as people say.”

Yoel sighed and walked into the restaurant with Sage. The manager who was attending to customers noticed Sage and hurried over quickly. “You’re here!”

Sage smiled and said, “I’ve brought a friend with me. Please have Chef Damian prepare a few of his signature dishes.”

“Sure. We’ve prepared a dining room for you and your guest. Please follow me.”

The manager politely escorted Sage into the restaurant.

Walking beside Sage, Yoel asked, “Is this one of Norah Group’s businesses?”

“Not really,” replied Sage, “I own this shop.”

Yoel was slightly startled by this revelation. He too had opened up several restaurants, and he knew that the food and beverage industry was not an easy industry to survive in, let alone have one’s restaurant attain fame. “But from what I know, this place has been around for more than five to six years, hasn’t it?”
