Sweet Subterfuge

Chapter 774

Larissa recognized that unique profile picture at once. The background was an endless night sky. There was a golden crescent moon in the middle of it with bright stars nearby.

This was Aster’s art homework from last week. According to him, the name of this painting was called “Mommy and Me.” Larissa was like the gentle moon that was always by the little stars‘ sides.

Larissa thought that the person who liked her post was Aster. Just as she was amazed by his speed, she was greeted by Kevan’s name when she tapped into the notifications tab.

It was not strange for Kevan to like her post. Yet, the fact that he used Aster’s profile picture, one that had such a significant meaning. made her feel strange.

Marilyn had already put down her phone and started eating. Every bite made her moan in satisfaction.

“Larissa! C’mon, try this! It’s so good!”

Larissa jotted as she looked away from Kevan’s profile picture.

“Sure.”

She smiled and shoved her phone back into her bag.

She was anxious about her unfinished slideshow. Thus, Larissa did not spend too long on this meal

When she left with Marlyn, the gang of colleagues were still there. Their dishes were all empty, and they were leaning against each other while making all sorts of poses. They were having so much fun taking selfies.

This time, Larissa did not stop walking. Still, when they reached the doors of the restaurant, she heard the angry shouts of a woman inside. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Larissa did not like to bother with these kinds of incidents. But Marilyn tugged on her arm.

“This sounds a bit like Judy.”

“Huh? Larissa was interested now.

The other customers had stopped eating in the restaurant. They were looking at where the voice came from.

Their focus was on Judy and a uniformed waitress.

Judy was taller than the waitress. When she was shouting at the poor girl, it looked like she was bullying her.

“So, I’m spending money here to take your shit?

“The customer is always right, don’t you know that?

I

“I can sit for however long I like since I paid. You have no fucking right to kick me pull

“Bring me your manager! I want to complain about you!”

From Judy’s words and the discussions with the other customers, Larissa was able to figure out the whole problem. Judy and her gang had already finished their meal quite some time ago. Yet they kept taking pictures in their seats. They did not want to pay and leave.

The other customers who had booked reservations had waited for too long. They had urged the restaurant to hurry up. The waitress had no choice but to come and tell Judy and her gang to leave.

Reportedly, the waitress‘ attitude was okay. She only asked them to leave in a roundabout way, and even apologized several times. But Judy exploded at once. She did not wait for the waitress to finish before jumping up to scream bloody murder at the poor girl.

The waitress tried to defend herself while Judy had paused. “When you called to book your reservation, we already reminded you that all customers can only be seated for two hours at most during peak hours. You and your friends have been here for two and a hall hours, the next group of customers are still waiting …”

“What two hours? I don’t fucking know!” Judy relused to listen. “What kind of fucking rule is this? Why should we only sit for two hours? Don’t think I won’t fucking sue you guys!

hours. If you feel that two hours is too short, you can change your time slot and sit here for as long as you like

“Shut up!” Judy sat back down in her seat as she crossed her arms. She looked super annoyed. “Fucking bring me your manager”

The waitress pressed her lips together.

“Please wait then.”

With that the poor girl left.
