Chapter 59 - Karma is a bitch (2/2)
Finland looked very beautiful, even though today she wasn't dressed properly for dinner at such a fancy restaurant. She went to take Jean to the airport directly from her office, so she only wore her work outfit and carried a laptop bag.
She felt that many people in the room were judging her appearance; they were probably thinking that she did not deserve to be with such a perfect man.
Ugh... now she understood why Caspar preferred to eat in privacy and always chose to close the restaurant he was having dinner at.
Finland took the menu and tried to understand its contents. Caspar shook his head and called Manager Park who was standing beside him.
”Please translate this menu to English, so later if Miss Finland eats here without me, she can order the food she likes herself.”
”Yes, Sir.” Manager Park responded while writing something on his tablet. ”If you will excuse me, I will go to my office to take care of your request. I will ask my staff to receive your orders.”
He then left them. Caspar translated the French menu to English so Finland could find a dish she wanted to order.
Finland was touched. She remembered that 4 months ago when they first ate at that restaurant, she took a picture of the menu to ask for Jean's help as she did not understand French. Caspar must have remembered and now he translated the menu for her again without being asked.
”Thank you... I want to order this one… and this one,” Finland finally decided on her order.
The waiter noted their orders and excused herself.
”You remember that I don't understand the menu because it is in French...” Finland smiled at Caspar after the waiter left, ”Thank you.”
”You're welcome,” Caspar said, returning Finland's smile, showing off his dimples which made Finland want to kiss him. ”You can repay my kindness by kissing me.”
Ugh... was Caspar able to read minds too? Finland asked herself.
She looked around and after making sure that not many people were watching them, she brought her face close to Caspar's and kissed him quickly.
Caspar's face lit up when Finland kissed him. His mood improved significantly and he suddenly called Stanis.
”Stanis, I'm very happy now. Raise the salary of all staff of Continental Hotel by 5%.”
Finland gasped. Caspar was indeed a generous boss. If he was happy, he could easily bombard his staff with bonuses or salary increases. But if he was upset, Finland remembered he almost cut Ben's annual bonus.
”You may come here at any time. I will tell all the staff of the Continental Hotel that you are the reason of their salary increase,” Caspar said, ”Hopefully when you come here again they would already have an English menu.”
”Wow... thank you,” Finland said excitedly.
Having access to Moon Restaurant was a privilege for a marketing person like her. All this while, due to practicality, LTX was only able to have meetings with clients at restaurants which did not require a one-month advance reservation such as De Lune Restaurant.
However, with Caspar's arrangement, next time, Finland could entertain her clients by taking them to Moon Restaurant. She was sure that they would feel very surprised and honored, and LTX International's image will become even more prestigious.
