Chapter 78
Once they entered the restaurant, Lucy took the menu and ordered, “A ribeye steak, please. And remove the peas and broccoli.”
Lucy skillfully made a special request to remove all the things she did
not want.
Chelsea looked at her resignedly. She knew that Lucy would do this as soon as they came in.
While Lucy went to the restroom after ordering, Chelsea called the
waiter back and said, “Please choose a leaner cut and add all the vegetables the lady requested to be removed earlier.”
It was the waiter’s first time encountering such demanding customers, but he maintained tip–top service and nodded. “Yes, Ma’am.”
Chelsea looked around and saw that Lucy had not returned yet, so she told the waiter, “Can we switch to a more remote table? Somewhere away from others so that the lady won’t notice that her plate looks different. Otherwise, she’s going to kick up a fuss.”
The waiter suppressed a smile when he realized that Chelsea was looking after the other customer, so he quickly led her to a corner of the restaurant.
When Lucy came out of the restroom, she was surprised to see that Chelsea was not there. Even her bag was gone.
Chelsea suddenly shouted from God knew where, “Lulu, what are your looking at? Come here.”
Lucy looked at Chelsea blankly. “Where are our things?”
“Over there.”

She looked in the direction Chelsea pointed at and realized that her bag was all the way in the corner. She frowned and asked, “Why did you change our table there?”
Smiling, Chelsea said, “It’s more quiet there, so we won’t be disturbed. The waiter also said that he made a mistake and that our previous table had been booked.”
Lucy did not think much about Chelsea’s explanation and followed her to the corner.
Not long after, their steaks were served. Lucy could not wait to take a bite, so she cut her steak and put it in her mouth.
“Ah! It’s hot!” She spat out the piece of steak and drank her iced water pitifully.
Chelsea looked at her amusingly. “It’s your fault for being so impatient.”
Then, she picked up some salad and put it onto Lucy’s plate. “Don’t just eat the meat. Have some vegetables.”
Lucy grumbled, “What kind of steak meal would it be without meat? If I wanted raw vegetables, I would’ve had some at home.”
Contrary to what she said, she still ate the salad Chelsea gave her.
Only then did Chelsea start eating.
