Emily tried several restaurants but none of them were good enough, so she asked Joyce for help. But they are much of a muchness. Not surprisingly, they didn't come up with any good plans.
Lucas called her again. She didn't want to answer it but considering that he might offer some good ideas, she picked it up.
But she didn't expect Lucas to switch to an affectionate mode as soon as he opened his mouth. He said affectionately, "Emily, I'm listening to you. I've already gotten my marriage certificate with Iris."
Emily felt nauseous and said with a sour tone, "Congratulations!"
Lucas forced a smile and said, "Emily, you know I don't want your blessing."
"Then what do you want? Curse?" Emily sneered.
"Emily, can't we go back to our old days? I'll still listen to you and follow your lead, so why can't you be nice to me?" Lucas asked sadly.
"No." Emily refused directly.
Lucas sighed and said slowly, "I know it won't be that easy, but can you come out and have dinner with me? Just regard it as... The last meal!"
Emily sneered in her heart, "The last meal?!" Was he going to die after that?
Oh, shoot! Having dinner. That's the point.
"Speaking of having dinner, I have something to ask you. I recently got a really picky customer. Can you recommend some nice restaurants to me? The customer doesn't eat spicy, sour, or sweet food, and he loves light meals. Mmm... It would be better if the restaurant is tranquil and clean."
"Who's that? He's so particular," Lucas said unhappily.
Emily said, "If you know someplace like that, tell me. If not, stop grumbling."
"Yes, yes, yes. Don't be angry. I'll send you the address right away. You can use my name to reserve a table. It's an underground restaurant, and only accepts VIP members," Lucas said quickly.
"Thank you," Emily said.
As soon as she hung up, she received a text message from Lucas, including the address and name, as well as his membership number.
After settling the matter, Emily heaved a sigh of relief and quickly sent the address to Jason to let him inform Franklin.
