Ashley suddenly said, "I think the three cooks are mediocre. How about I being you cook?"
Conrad was shocked and asked her, "I want to run a restaurant, but you only know how to make instant noodles. Should I change my menu with instafamous instant noodles?"
"No, that kind of instant noodle shop is to cheap, and I am a real chef! I will show you and surprise you tonight!"
Ashley seemed to mean it. She got up and left the restaurant, without anyone knowing what she was going to do.
"Miss Shawn seems a little..." Amara paused.
Conrad smiled, "Just let her do it. Continue the interviews for a few more days. The restaurant is working now, and there is no hurry to make a big change. After the interviews, choose the best interviewee, or hire several of them."
Amara nodded. It was the safest way.
The time tickled by. Conrad, Coleman and Amara were having dinner in a house in the community. They ordered take-outs, and they looked like exquisite.
Just then Ashley called Conrad and asked if he was at the restaurant. She had arrived with her delicious food.
"Well, come to the Room 101, Jadeite Garden Community. We are having dinner, join us." Conrad didn't care much. He just thought he would have instant noodles for an extra.
After a while, Ashley came with a hot mess tin. When she entered, she wondered why the building was dark except for the first floor where Mr. Conrad lived. It looked a little scary.
"There are so many rooms. And it is bothering to climb the stairs or take the life, so we all live the two floors down." Conrad said idly.
"Wait a minute," Ashley said, grasping the point, "You mean you bought the whole building? How many have you bought?"
"The whole five buildings are Mr. Porter's!" Amara said proudly.
"Keep your head down." Conrad said, motioning to keep low-profile, but the aura of richness couldn't be hidden.
Ashley's eyes suddenly widened in surprise and she stared at Conrad.
"What's the matter? Any problem?" asked Conrad.
"You bought the whole building? Are you that rich?" Ashley was surprised.
"It's all right. Have you had dinner? Come and join us." Conrad pulled out a chair for her and didn't see her as a chef candidate. As for Ashley's conditions, she could be a internet celebrity, not a chef.
"Try the marinated pig's feet I made!"
Ashley opened the box, and the aroma of the meat filled the air, which made them drool. Moreover, the dark red color of the pig's feet was attractive. The three of them took one immediately.
