Chapter 324 - Check and Competition (3) (2/2)
It was cold June looked into her face on the dressing table while wearing a coat over her dress Even though her et rid of the dark wrinkles She knew it She was forty now
She slowly lifted her finger and crossed the wrinkles over her face Age made a person feel miserable as its number increases When someone told her she was beautiful, June used to take it as a compliment without a doubt However, she always found it hard to accept whenever people said she was beautiful Did they say that out of courtesy? Or were they serious?”
“Teacher, I’m old, too I don’t have h to have er than her She took a coral pink lipstick and slowly painted her lips She breathed fake life over her pale lips and made a fake smile When she took off her coat, the room was still cool, but she didn’t feel cold
‘It’s not far now’
Her eyes shone sharply June left the dressing room and headed for the hotel’s banquet hall What was the purpose of the party? Was it to celebrate Rachel’s return to New York? She already forgot about her purpose of hosting the party When the door opened, June s at you outside the kitchen, I feel you are a different person”
“You, too, Congress well I was thinking of visiting Rose Island again sooner or later…”
“Please make a reservation anytime Our table is open Oh, excuseI was afraid youthe party participants, the door opened, and a woan to whisper after that momentary silence Sowith June stopped talking and looked at her
“Wow, Rachel is still great! She instantly gets the attention of people here”
“Because she is better than me”
With red wine in her mouth, she muttered in an inaudible voice
Jenin was amazed when she heard what June said
“Coeous June, you are the top chef in New York, but she is better than you”
“Thank you for praising me like that I wouldn’t reject your co you the truth By the way, have you thought about signing a contract with my hotel this ti the contract is not beyond er of Rose Island But I can send my sous chef to your hotel Of course, he will be your head chef there on a fixed, not permanent, basis”
“What a pity! I think it’s tiiven your position in New York…”
When she said that, June sed her
“Thank you for co, teacher You have made this place shi+ne”
“How can I not co a party for me? By the way, it looks like you invited lots of people I know some, but I don’t know many people here”
“Well, you like this kind of party, Rachel You just host a big party I’ve learned it from you Would you like me to introduce you?”
“No, I don’t want it If I need to know them, I will come to know them anyway”
“Well, if you insist…”
It was the ave up and tried to step back when Jenin, as chatting with June, approached Rachel with a gentle sendary chef here?”
June couldn’t decline her request right in front of Rachel
Sing a sigh, June said with a s a hotel in New York Jenin, this is Rachel, h?”
“Sure I’ve been your fan since I was young, Ms Rachel”
“Oh, dear! It’s the typical way they talk about me, but I am pleased to hear that anyway”
“I’ve always heard a lot about you from June She said you can cook indescribably delicious dishes I guess June’s dishes taste so delicious because she rese time It looks like her dishes resemble mine”
“Well, it’s not bad Isn’t it weird if your successor strongly shows her own personality in her dishes too? I think it’s good to have some similarities in the dishes to some extent”
As if she didn’t care, Jenin casually looked at Rachel At that lanced at Rachel
Rachel responded leisurely, not even looking at June, “Well, if I choose a successor, I’ for the best chef”
“Oh, do you mean you have any plans to choose your successor?”
“Well, it’s useless to talk about less It’s especiallyforward to the future, not today Rachel Rose’s successor Isn’t it a remarkable topic for everyone in the world? Me andto be your successor”
“Well, you are free to bet on her, but…”
Rachel grabbed a glass of cha by and said in a deep voice, “I can’t guarantee that she is going to be my successor”
“Teacher!”
As soon as Rachel said that, June called her She groaned deep doatching Rachel casually turning to her Although Rachel was old and feeble, Rachel was the same steel-hearted chef as before She was not to be swayed by June’s moods at the moment
June smiled at her She wrapped her arh she pretended not to, Jenin must have already sensed that June was not as ht And it was okay that Jenin came to know it
“Can I excuse you while you both are having a cozy conversation between teacher and student?” Jenin said
“Well, I don’t like such a cozy atmosphere,” Rachel responded
“Don’t worry, the atht look cozy, but it’s not in reality,” June said
Jenin felt even scared at June’s sharp voice, though she pretended to be kind
But Rachel didn’t feel embarrassed
She then said with a smile, “Really? Well, I want to check it out myself”
