Chapter 1700
“Mrs. Lewis.”
Upon seeing Mrs. Lewis entering, Liberty quickly stood up to greet her even though she had just sat down.
Mrs. Lewis gave a lukewarm reply. When she saw no customers in the diner, she said gently, “Liberty, can I treat you to coffee at a nearby cafe?”
Liberty smiled. “Okay.”
She removed her apron. After storing it properly, she told her two employees, “You two can pack up first. I’m stepping out for a while. Please help me look after Sonny when Jim sends him back later.”
Liberty was not planning to keep the diner open for the whole day.
She wanted to take a look at a restaurant on Westring Avenue 2. The business was not great and it had been suffering losses every month. The boss was planning to sell the restaurant.
The location of the restaurant was not bad with quite a number of people dining there. Was the business not doing well because of the boss’s incompetency in management or the chef’s substandard cooking skills?
Liberty wanted to know more about the situation and look at the surroundings of the restaurant. If she found it suitable, she wanted to take over the restaurant.
The vegetable farm Serenity invested in had a steady business. She also established a fresh produce company and collaborated with many hotels, schools, and factories. She had to supply lots of vegetables daily.
Aside from managing the businesses she invested in, Serenity also had to study the internal affairs and management of her in–laws‘ manor. She was very busy.
Liberty did not expect herself to catch up to her sister’s footsteps. She simply wanted to become successful in the food and beverage industry.
“Okay.”
After wrapping up at her diner, Liberty followed Mrs. Lewis out.
She did not ride in Mrs. Lewis’s car. Instead, she drove herself and followed Mrs. Lewis to the nearby cafe.
The business at the cafe was slow, making the place seem quiet.
