Chapter 122 - Making me tickle... (1/2)
”So this is what happened…” Lucinda said lying on Henry's bare chest.
”Yeah.. I'm really worried about my little sister.” Henry whispered as he stroked her hair.
Lucinda sighed before saying, ”Me too. After all she is my best friend. I hope that Alonzo is really not Alexander.”
Right then, her phone got a message and it was from Myra.
The message says, 'If you are not sleeping, then can I call you now? I have something important to tell you.'
Seeing the message, Lucinda furrowed her eyebrows and when Henry noticed this, he asked, ”Who is this babe?”
”Myra.” Lucinda replied.
”Why she texted you so late at night?” Henry asked.
”Don't know. She told me that she has something important to tell me. Let me call her. Okay?” Lucinda said before dialing Myra's number.
”Hey Lucy. I hope I didn't disturb you.” Myra said picking up the call.
Lucinda denied, ”No. Not at all. Tell me what important thing you have to say?” Lucinda asked.
”Actually, as we decided, I recently bought that place for my restaurant. Actually not me. But my brother bought it for me. But….” Myra stopped in her sentence midway.
Raising her eyebrows, Lucinda asked, ”But what?”
Sighing deeply, Myra narrated the whole story, ”Actually, I don't want my brother to help me in this. I really want to build this restaurant by my own and I don't want my family's name to come in all of this, making people judge me that the restaurant was built because of my family's money and fame.”
”Hmmm… That's understandable.” Lucinda hummed before leaning towards the headboard.
”But the problem is, my savings will not be enough for building this whole restaurant as per my dream one. So… so I need an investor in this who would co-own with me. However, as you know I don't know anyone in this city who could be trustful to invest in my dream like restaurant, so I need help from you in this. Can you please suggest me some good investors for it?” Myra asked almost pleading.
Taking a deep breath, Lucinda replied, ”Okay. I got it. Why don't you do one thing. Come to my cafe tomorrow and we'll discuss about this more clearly. If you want I can also call Veronica to help you. She is really good at this kind of stuffs.”
A sigh of relaxation filled in Myra's mind as she said jovially, ”That would be great. Thanks a lot for your help once again. I'll meet you tomorrow then.”
”Yeah. Bye.” Lucinda said before cutting the call and again lying beside Henry who was scrolling through his social media accounts.
