I am the Entertainment Tycoon-Chapter 44 Restaurant Opening IV

The Yamada family finished their meal with a content look.

"Subarashi..." Grandpa Takeo said as he looked with satisfaction at the restaurant.

"I can't believe young Theo can make such delicious dishes. He is a genius chef." Ezume said with a smile.

"He is so young and yet so talented." Hazel said.

"We have to greet him before leaving" Ezume said as he called the waiter to say to Theo that they were leaving.

After a while, a silver-haired young man arrived at their table.

"I hope my dishes satisfied you guys." Theo smiled at them.

"My son, they were beyond delicious. I see why you opened such a beautiful restaurant." Grandpa Takeo laughed.

"Thank you, grandpa Takeo." Theo smiled.

"Theo, you are so talented. I am sure your restaurant will become super famous." Hazel smiled.

"I agree with Hazel." Ezume also smiled.

Theo thanked him but while he looked at the couple, he felt that they remembered someone he knew but he couldn't figure out who.

He was intrigued by this mystery.

"If you guys are up for it, I can show you the place." Theo asked with a smile.

They looked at each other and agreed with him.

"Wait a moment, I will call my friends so that we can all see at the same time." Theo said as he went towards Sam and Sayuri, they also just finished eating.

"So, girls, what did you girls think about my dishes?" Theo asked with a smile as he arrived at their table.

"Boss, I didn't know you were so talented! This was definitely the best meal I ever had." Sam exclaimed.

"What a surprise. You are already a genius writer and now you are a genius chef? What can you not do?" Sayuri laughed.

Theo smiled and thanked them.

"Do you guys want to tour around the restaurant?" Theo asked.

"Sure, it will be a pleasure to see more of this beautiful restaurant." Sam replied.

They stood up and followed Theo.

Theo arrived at the Yamada's table.

"Hey guys, come on." Theo smiled.

They smiled and followed him too.

When they arrived at the back part of the restaurant, they saw the stone-carved staircase, the chandelier, the glass elevator, and the skylight.

They were flabbergasted as the ambient had a different vibe compared with the cozy salon. But it was beautiful, nonetheless.

"The staircase goes directly to the first floor where we have the private rooms that have the same set as our salon." Theo pointed.

"And here we have the entrance of the kitchen. You guys cannot enter because of hygiene procedures, but it is possible to see inside the kitchen through this glass wall." Theo pointed at a glass wall.

They looked at the kitchen and they could see cooks running to finish the orders to serve the clients.

They were impressed by the professionalism of the cooks. They seemed like pros. And surprisingly, all the cooks were as young as Theo.

But three particular people of the viewing group were beyond surprised.

They looked at a particular person with purple hair tied in a ponytail and golden eyes that concentrated while cooking a dish. She had a different uniform compared with the other cooks and they could see she had authority in the kitchen.

She was breathtakingly beautiful.

And the Yamada family recognized her.

Yamada Ayia, heir of the Yamada Family. Daughter of Yamada Ezume and Hazel Lionheart. She was the last person they expected to see cooking inside a kitchen.

But they were impressed. The girl, they knew as playful and that didn't take things seriously, was working inside a professional kitchen with concentration that was rare for her.

The cooks were cooking when they felt someone looking at them, they turned towards the glass wall and saw Theo talking to a group of people.

Ayia also felt someone looking at her, but as the chef of the kitchen, while Theo was out, she didn't pay too much attention. It was only when she felt that someone was staring intently at her that she turned.

And when she saw who was looking at her, she froze.

"Mom, dad, grandpa..." she whispered. 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

"Kimiko, oversee the kitchen, I am going out for a while." Ayia said to Kimiko.

Even though she was nervous about her family finding out that she is working inside someone's else kitchen, she had a job to do and had to do it right.

"Yes, chef." Kimiko replied.

Ayia exited the kitchen and came to her family.

"Hey, mom, dad, grandpa." Ayia said with a nervous face.

They looked at her as if they saw someone they didn't know.

"To think you could work and not only play around." Hazel said with a playful smile.

"I cannot believe it either." Ezume said as he looked at his daughter.

"Mom, Dad, I love working here. It is amazing and Chef Theo is an amazing chef, and I am learning so much while working here." Ayia said with eyes full of tears.

"I trust young Theo, and if my precious granddaughter wants to work here, I support it." Grandpa Takeo said as he looked at her with doting eyes.

"Me too. I think this experience will be of great importance for you, dear." Hazel smiled at her daughter.

"Hmm if you guys think so, I agree with it too." He wasn't particularly joyful about it, but he thought his father and wife were right.

"Thank you, grandpa, mom, dad!" Ayia jumped on them and hugged them.

"I have to go. I have to oversee the kitchen awhile Theo is with you guys." Ayia ran towards the kitchen.

When she entered, she became serious again while she went around the kitchen to see if everything was alright.

Theo who observed their interaction was beyond surprised.

What are the chances?

He met the father and grandfather one day and the next day he met their daughter.

It was like a movie plot.

Theo walked towards them and spoke

"I never thought Ayia was from your family." Theo said in wonder. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

"Me too, how did you guys meet?" Hazel asked.

"One day I was with my sister buying some food that we were taking to the orphanage and Ayia ran into me and made me drop all the food I was carrying. She offered to buy more food and when she learned we were going to the orphanage to play with the children, she came with us too. And like that we became friends and later she learned I was opening a restaurant and I learned she was a cook. So, I invited her to be my second chef." Theo told them the resumed version of the story.

They were surprised. The story was unusual.

They didn't imagine that they would meet for the first time as they visited an orphanage.

They had an even better image of Theo. Someone as talented as he didn't forget to share his time with the orphanage and help them.

"I am glad she was there to run into you then." Hazel giggled with knowing eyes.

"Sure haha" Theo laughed.

Theo then proceeded to show the rest of the restaurant. And all of them agreed that it was one of the most beautiful buildings they had ever seen.

After he showed them around, he went back to the kitchen and the group exited the restaurant.
