A chance to be happy again

Part 2

English is not my first language. I apologize in advance for any mistakes.

-I'd like to get the paperwork done as quickly as possible.- the Thai woman said with a smile, unbuttoning her jacket and leaning back in a chair in one of Seoul's office skyscrapers.

-In the course of a week should check all documents and confirm the purchase.- once again, carefully shifting documents replied commercial real estate realtor with the same polite smile.- And here are a couple of options on your request for real estate in the area of Busan and ready to provide an analytical report.

-Will you e-mail it to me? I'll look into it, and at our final closing meeting, I'll let you know if I'm interested in one of the properties.- Lisa said as she watched the sun slowly sink to the horizon, in her head making plans to tell her father about wanting to open another restaurant in South Korea's second most populous city.

-Of course, we are always ready for a new collaboration, Mrs. Manoban.- she said respectfully, as always does when it comes to one of her most important clients says women and stood up to bow.

-It was a pleasure to cooperate with you...- respectfully bowed Thai woman because in spite of the wealth surrounding her since childhood she was always taught to respect everyone, regardless of social status and money.

-Congratulations on the acquisition of the new building for the restaurant?.- stood up from the couch and threw Sorn with a smirk, winking at the secretary, who instantly blushed.

-God stop flirting with literally every living woman.- Lisa rolled her eyes as she walked toward the elevators, taking her phone out of her pocket to check the messages she missed from the meeting.

-Try sleeping with someone and maybe it will bring back a fun version of you instead of a grumpy gremlin.- pressing the elevator call button, the youtuber girl threw back, watching her friend's eyes narrow warningly.- I was just kidding, just kidding! Don't give me that «I WILL DESTROY YOU» look...

-You're going to annoy me all day?.- the Thai woman clarified on the first floor, deciding not to start another pointless conversation about not wanting sex for one night after breaking up with her ex-girlfriend.

-Do you want to get rid of me already, Manoban?.- Sorn asked as she took out her gum, looking at the changing floors on the dial.

-No, but Jihyo asked for special service tonight and I want to be present in the restaurant to show respect to her guests.- reading carefully the message from her friend and opening a dialogue with the manager reporting the unexpected reservation of a vip-hall, Lisa threw back trying to remember if there are any meetings tonight that should be canceled.

-If she brings some hot hotties with her, then we're in business!.- the girl instantly smiled in anticipation of a busy evening.

Once in the underground parking lot they still immersed in their own thoughts got into a Bentley Continental GT deciding to drive to a restaurant to get ready for dinner as Jihyo very rarely asked for a favor. The only time she used her friendship to get a table at one of the most inaccessible places in South Korea was the night she asked her sweetheart to be her girlfriend. That day, knowing the big plans in advance, the Thai woman spent long hours annoying her staff and controlling the perfection of every aspect and now had no intention of changing her attitude. Knowing Jihyo's tendency to lay the best of everything at her beloved's feet on the way to the restaurant the heiress of the Manoban dynasty alerted of the need for special preparations for this dinner. Judging by the small message the invitees were only nine people and this could only mean a family meeting and maybe it was an evening when her friend finally decided to ask the most important and important question in the relationship.

-Good evening first of all!.- Lisa began with the usual relaxed smile of the staff around each standing in front of her eyes.- This evening we will have guests to serve in the VIP-room and I would like to ask you personally to treat this dinner not only with the respect that we give each of our clients, but also with personal involvement, because it will be close to me people.

-We will not let you down, Mrs. Manoban!.- vowed the manager, for absolutely everyone working for the family was certainly committed to their interests and was doing everything not to let them down.

-I had no doubt about it, Mrs. Sohn.- she replied, bowing respectfully to the manager and having trouble keeping from rolling her eyes when she saw her friend stealing a French muffin while the pastry chef was distracted by their small meeting.- I just wanted to remind you once again how grateful our family is for all your work at the highest level that all our customers expect to receive at the restaurant. Let's not let their expectations down this evening either...

-You should be the speaker for these trainings.- Sorn muttered as she chewed on her bun, proud of the theft she had committed.

-If you do that again, I'll have you re-educated in the kitchen.- Lisa threatened, knowing full well how much the pastry chef wanted to re-educate the main thief of sweets.

-I guess I'll go say hello to the ladies and then go home. -wiping the corners of her lips from the cream, she said, walking toward the administrative offices.

In preparation for dinner Thai girl did not notice how time flew by and now she freshened up in the shower, which was in a hidden room in her office, changed into a suit that had been sewn in Thailand especially for her, because as her father insisted a good suit must always be in the closet. When after fifteen minutes the manager reported about the guests, who had already passed into a special hall, hidden from visitors, Lisa fixed her shirt in the mirror and decided to personally greet those. Though many politicians, celebrities and influential people visited their restaurants very seldom representatives of Manoban family came out to those to wish them a good dinner, but these guests were an exception. As she approached the hall she noted with some surprise the number of guards who remained in a specially designated place for the attendants, where everything was also made for maximum comfort. Entering the room Thai woman froze for a moment as her attention was captured by a beautiful stranger with a smile sitting at the table and as if in the movies holding a glass of red wine.

-Lisa! I didn't expect you to show up!.- Jihyo spotted her friend and immediately jumped up from her seat, hugging her tightly.- Thank you so much for this evening! Where's Sorn?

-No problem at all! This place is always available to you...- Manoban smiled sincerely, unable to tear her gaze away from the mysterious stranger.- She went home to rest tomorrow morning to fly to Thailand... These beautiful ladies?

-You know the meaning of my life Sana, Nayeon and Chaeyoung, leaning in for a quick kiss on the temple with undisguised pride, the girl began to introduce everyone sitting at the table, one by one.- our friends Irene and Seulgi, Jisoo and Rose and the main culprit of the unexpected dinner who returned after a year and a half absence, Jennie.

-It's a pleasure to meet you.- she muttered, still staring at the one whose eyes in the dim light were particularly appealing, bowing low, hoping not to look ridiculous.

-Maybe you'd like to have dinner with us?.- Sana said, noticing the attention her friend paid to the girl sitting in front of her, taking a sip of wine.

-I don't want to interfere with your dinner.- feeling her cheeks blush, the Thai woman threw it away, hoping that in the dim light it would go unnoticed.

-Don't be a stranger! It's your restaurant, and you should know that if the princess wants it, she gets it.- hinting to the rather insistent nature of the girlfriend said Jihyo taking a seat in the chair she was occupying.

-There's nothing official here! We're just sharing stories! Come on, sit down! Don't make me use force...- Nayeon smirked, playing with her muscles, which were obviously smaller, causing laughter from everyone at the table.

-Thank you so much for the invitation...- sitting down on the only empty seat next to the one who was responsible for dinner, Lisa muttered, smiling at her staff who, like a click, placed the cutlery in front of her.
