Chapter 242 Remember My Name Harmony Restaurant was one of the best restaurants in Washington! It was much more expensive than ordinary restaurants. Yet compared to Splendor Restaurant, which would cost tens of thousands of dollars for a meal, the price of Harmony Restaurant was quite reasonable.
Of course, if people wished to spend more money in Harmony Restaurant, they would never be disappointed.
In addition, the dishes there tasted good. Ordinary families of the middle class could afford it. So, Harmony Restaurant was always crowded.
The boss of Harmony Restaurant was a strange person. He treated all customers equally, so even people from the aristocratic family in Washington had to wait in line if they were to eat there.
In addition, there was no hierarchical system in Harmony Restaurant. Customers got to choose the floor. There were no private rooms, only seats, and tables. But of course, the environment was quite good!
Hearing Ingrid and Leana introduce Harmony Restaurant, Gerald said happily, âNow I want to meet this gentleman who founded this place. He is a brave man who doesnât care about power!â
Ingrid said with a smile, âTheir boss is their chef, but very few people see him.â
âThatâs amazing,â Gerald said in surprise.
âWeâre almost there!â Ingrid said, âThe food here is no worse than Splendor Restaurant. Moreover, it is said that they have a new chef recently, who had the same teacher as the owner of Harmony Restaurant. He is also one of the best chefs in the country.â
As they talked, the car stopped in a relatively rural area.
Gerald got off the car. While pretending to stretch, he looked behind.
What surprised him was that the car following them didnât stop. It drove away from Gerald.
Geraldâs expression changed slightly. He thought to himself, could it be that itâs just on the way? Was I thinking too much?
He frowned. Of course, he did not let down his guard, nor did he ask Valery to return. They could be acting.
âI knew we would be late!â At this time, Leana smiled bitterly and said, âHey, the owner of Harmony Restaurant is also strange.
Why canât people make reservations in advance?â
Gerald looked ahead and found that Harmony Restaurant was not quite the same as he imagined.
In front of Harmony Restaurant, there was a large open space. At this time, many people were waiting there.
âItâs so popular,â Gerald touched his nose and said.
âWe have no choice but to wait. I hope there will be an empty table soon.â Leana ran over to get the number, then walked to the empty chair on the ground and waited.
Inside Harmony Restaurant was lively.
Gerald also sat down, but his eyes were fixed on the road not far away. He wanted to see if the car had come back, but to his surprise, it didnât.
After waiting for a while, Gerald saw that Valeryâs car had stopped not far away. Valery and Carolyn went to pick up the number.
They noticed Gerald but only glanced coldly at him. Their gazes paused on Leana for half a second before they left. Then they walked over to Gerald and sat down opposite him.
They seemed to not know Gerald as they chatted.
âHey, isnât that your friend last time we saw in the garage?â Ingrid said in surprise when she saw Valery.
When Ingrid was attacked in Sacramento for the first time, she met Valery once.
âWould you like to invite them to join us?â Ingrid asked.
âDonât disturb them. They might be on a mission,â Gerald calmly replied.
When Ingrid heard this, she immediately closed her mouth and then asked in a low voice, âThey wonât be in danger, will they?â
âThey are all experts. So donât worry,â Gerald smiled at her and said, âHow long must we wait?â
They sat down face to face with Valery. The presence of four beautiful women naturally attracted a lot of people. At the same time, some males unconsciously spoke louder.
At this time, not far away, a goodâlooking man wearing fancy close stood up. Beside him, several people were applauding.
He smiled and took out his phone. He walked toward Valery and Carolyn. Then he stopped in front of Valery. Smiling in a way that he believed was charming, he said, âYoung lady, do you know where I am most satisfied with myself?â
Beside Gerald, Ingrid and the others were slightly stunned.
However, Valery had no intention of paying attention to him. She glanced at the man and then turned away!
The man went around again and said with a smile, âThe thing that I am most satisfied with is my eyes because you are in them.â
âFuck!â When Gerald heard this, he got goosebumps!
What an oldâfashioned pickup line!
When Carolyn heard this, she looked at the man with interest.
âSo, lady, can you friend me on Line?â The man smiled confidently.
When Valery heard this, she looked up at him and sized him up. She said coldly, âGet lost!â
The manâs face was stiff. Then, he said in a low voice, âLady, my friends will laugh at me if you refuse to add me on Line.â
âDonât you understand English? Get lost!â Valery said coldly again.
âPfft!â Many people around laughed out loud.
Gerald laughed as well.
The man returned to his friends awkwardly.
Just as they were smiling, a puzzled voice suddenly rang out, âLeana, Ingrid, you are also here!â
Hearing this voice, Gerald looked up. Unexpectedly, he saw an acquaintance.
Not far away, three people were approaching them. One of them was Riley, who was in the live broadcast during Ingridâs birthday in Sacramento!
With him were two young people.
The person in the middle looked about the same age as Gerald. The other one was a fat man who weighed at least two hundred pounds. But fortunately, he was tall, so he looked okay.
The one who spoke was the one in the middle!
Although he called Ingrid, his eyes had always been on Leana.
âLeana, I ask you out for dinner almost every day. You have never agreed. Now, I find you came to Harmony Restaurant alone.â
He smiled and said, âSince we met, why donât you join us? My treat!â
âNo need, Iâm here with my friends.â Leana glanced at him with undisguised annoyance.
âFriends, do you mean Ingrid?â After saying that, his eyes fell on Gerald. There was a trace of coldness in his eyes and he said, âOr this dude?â
Leana said indifferently, âIt has nothing to do with you. Just stay away from me.â
At this time, Riley looked at Gerald and said unfriendly, âDave, this guy is called Gerald. He is from Sacramento. When we were in Sacramento, he had some conflicts with me!â
After that, he sneered and said, âGerald, let me introduce you. The person in front of you is Dave Thornton, the heir of the Thornton family!â
Gerald was slightly surprised. This young man was the heir of the Thornton family.
Dave ignored Leanaâs words and sat down beside Gerald. Then, he placed his hand on Geraldâs shoulder and exerted a little force.
Gerald frowned!
The Thornton family was also an ancient martial arts family. There had been super experts in this family. So, people from this family naturally practiced martial arts.
âBro!â Dave sat down beside Gerald and said with slight force, âWhat is your relationship with Leana?â
âWhat does that have to do with you!â Leana looked at Dave with disdain and said, âDave, take your hand away. Otherwise, donât blame me for being rude to you!â
As she spoke, she stood up!
Seeing Leana defending Gerald, Dave frowned. However, it seemed that he didnât dare to offend Leana. He frowned and released Gerald. Then, he said to Gerald, âGerald, right? Remember my name! My name is Dave Thornton!â
