Billionaire Marriage

Chapter 10

Third Person

Paris, The City of love, The City of lights (La Ville Lumière.) The lights of Paris were bright. They were absolutely breathtaking. The lights illuminated the streets and travelled all the way up to the sky, decorating it. Paris is truly a beauty.

Diamond and Liam arrived in Paris two hours ago and had already checked in at their hotel. They were staying at 'Le Meurice'. A hotel palace that is located in central Paris. It is a vintage-designed hotel harboring the modern roots of the world, making it a pleasant sight.

Currently, the couple was preparing themselves to head out for dinner for their first night in Paris. They both dressed smartly and headed out towards the restaurant to try out French Cuisine.

The couple arrived at the hotel’s restaurant and were situated at a table by a hostess. Liam assists Diamond in sliding her chair for her before making his way to his seat.

“Bonjour i'm Adalene et je vous aiderai aujourd'hui dans le cadre de vos commandes ici à l'hôtel." The hostess greets with a welcoming smile on her face.

Diamond only caught the first part before she blanked completely. Her French was certainly not great as she started to feel a sense of failure after dropping the subject in high school.

"Qu'aimerais-tu commander? What would you like to order?" The hostess asked, translating to English after seeing the confusion that was plastered on Diamond's face.

"Quelles sont les recommandations du jour?" Liam questions in French.

Diamond’s eyebrow perks up in interest obviously impressed by Liam.

"Aujourd'hui, nous avons du vin rouge, du vin blanc, des whiskies, des contes de bites, des jus de fruits et des boissons gazeuses. Today we have red wine,white wine,
whiskeys,cocktails,juices and fizzy drinks."

Liam looks directly at his wife. “What would you like?"

"Red wine please." She says softly.

"I'll have the same.”

"Sûr. Maintenant, veuillez m'excuser pendant que je vais chercher vos fritures et je reviendrai pour déposer vos commandes et récupérer vos commandes pour le repas. Sure. Please excuse me whilst I go fetch your drinks. I will come back to take your orders. Merci."

Adalene walks away, leaving the couple to decide on their meals. Diamond almost let out a sigh of relief as she read through the menu, realizing it had both French and English written out.

“I didn’t know you speak French.” She comments haughtily.

Liam chuckles. “Took it as a subject in high school.”

“I did once but it was too hard so I went to Spanish instead.”

“Spanish will come in handy if we ever go visit Spanish-speaking countries.”

Diamond didn’t have time to respond as Adalene returned with their requested drinks. Her eyes fall back onto the menu as she browsed through the options, not really paying attention to the entrees.

"Bon, êtes-vous prêt à commander? Are you ready to order?" Adalene asks taking out her notepad.

“Beef Bourguignon,” Diamond says towards Liam.

"Pouvons-nous s'il vous plaît avoir des escargots avec une salade en entrée sur le côté et aussi Croque Monsieur ainsi que Boeuf Bourguignon s'il vous plaît." Liam translates”

"À venir. Je vous remercie." Adalene finishes off by taking the menus leaving them alone once more.

"I heard something about a starter. What did you order?" Diamond questions curiously.
