“No, no, no. There’s no need to do so. There’s really no need to do that.”
Jerome was the most anxious person among everyone right now. He rushed forward and pleaded with
all his might, “There isn’t a problem with this restaurant. I didn’t carry out an investigation just now. I
made a mistake by issuing this notice. You don’t have to carry out an investigation!” he begged.
Jasper looked at Jerome and said in a calm tone, “Oh? Mr. Canne, you were the one who claimed that
there’s a problem with my restaurant just a moment ago. Now, you’re the one who’s saying that there’s
no problem as well. Can you tell me if there’s a problem with my restaurant or not?”
“No! I guarantee that there isn’t a problem with it!” Jerome cried out in a state of panic. He was so
desperate that he was close to bursting out into tears.
Jasper’s expression hardened. “Since there isn’t a problem, how do you explain this notice?” he
questioned.
Jerome stared at the notice in regret. “It’s all a misunderstanding…” he said listlessly.
“Secretary Lee and Director Sund, do as you wish,” Jasper said coldly.
His words wielded the power to determine Jerome Canne’s fate.
After determining Jerome’s fate, Jasper did not bother to spare him another glance. He invited
Secretary Lee into the restaurant for a meal.
As for Director Sund… He would be staying behind to deal with the aftermath of the incident. Besides,
he was not qualified to have a meal at the same table as Jasper.
Director Sund stared at Jerome, who was as pale as a sheet, with a cold look. “Jerome Canne, submit
a resignation letter to me when you’re back. I’ll organize an election for the new chairman of the self-
regulatory council of the food and beverage industry tomorrow,” he said in a stiff tone.
After speaking, Director Sund turned around and left without sparing another glance at Jerome and
Magnus whose expressions were full of despondence and disbelief.
Through this incident, Director Sund realized that there were many internal problems within the self-
regulatory councils. Furthermore, the self-regulatory council of the food and beverage industry was not
the only council in Nauritus City. There were plenty of different councils in each industry.
Therefore, Director Sund intended to think carefully and devise a plan to increase the positive impacts
brought about by these self-regulatory councils in order to reduce the mess caused by idiots like
Jerome and Magnus Canne.
…
The farce ended just like that. After that, Jasper and Secretary Lee did not mention this incident again.
After all, in the eyes of both Jasper and Secretary Lee, Jerome and Magnus were nobodies who did not
deserve to be mentioned. There was no need to bring them up again.
They knew that it was unlikely for Jerome and Magnus to appear before them ever again.
“Mr. Laine, this hotpot restaurant of yours is rather exquisite,” Secretary Lee remarked as he admired
the interior furnishing of Hello Hotpot. Besides, the waiters spoke to the customers passionately and
provided extremely meticulous service.
Jasper chuckled and said, “This is one of the reasons why I decided to invest in this restaurant. Come
on, Secretary Lee. Let’s make a toast. Make sure to frequent this restaurant in the future. I won’t let you
eat for free, but I’ll give you a discount since we’re friends.”
Secretary Lee guffawed loudly as he made a toast with Jasper. They both downed the contents of their
glasses in one go.
…
It was ten o’clock at night after they finished their meal.
Secretary Lee repeatedly told Jasper he did not need to send him off at the entrance of the restaurant.
He then turned around and left.
Darrel and Jonas made their way toward Jasper excitedly.
“How is it? How’s the turnover today?” Jasper asked.
“Although the customers declined in between due to the commotion caused by Magnus and the others,
we still did pretty well today,” Darrel said happily.
“We had a turnover of more than 80,000 dollars tonight. It has exceeded our expectations by quite a
lot. This was mainly due to the good feedback from customers. Some of the customers also suggested
their recommendations for areas of improvement. We’ve collected all of their feedback and we can
review them later on.”
Jasper nodded and said, “Not bad. This is a very good start. Let’s continue to work hard.”
As Jasper spoke, he turned around to look at Tiffany who was standing anxiously beside him. She
seemed like she was at a loss of what to do. He chuckled and asked her, “Where do you live? Do you
need me to send you home?”
Tiffany blushed and hid behind Wendy instinctively. Wendy was the person she trusted the most right
now. Conversely, she felt slightly aversive toward Jasper for reasons that were unclear to her as well.
“I… I’m not off work yet.”
“You’re off work now! You can go home right now! You’re free to go now, Tiffany!” Jonas exclaimed
immediately. He was a natural prankster.
Tiffany gasped and stared at her boss in a stunned manner. “But, didn’t you say that we’re supposed to
operate the restaurant till half-past two in the early morning?” she asked in a daze.
The corners of Jonas’ lips twitched. He was at a loss for words.
How could there be such a silly girl in the world?
Wendy could not help but chuckle. “Your boss is giving you a special holiday today. You can get off
work in advance,” she told her.
“Will… Will my salary be deducted?” Tiffany asked in confusion.
Jonas turned his head around silently. He was afraid he would not be able to resist cursing in front of
her.
Every word that came out of this young girl’s mouth made him look at this young, sweet, and silly girl in
a different light.
“No, it won’t,” Wendy said patiently.
“Tell me. Where do you live? We’ll send you back. Otherwise, I’d worry if you went home alone,”
Wendy said.
“I don’t have a place to live in. Before coming over to work, the shop owner told me that I can sleep in
the extra space in the storeroom. I brought my sheets over as well,” Tiffany said embarrassedly.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone was overcome with a sense of pity.
Jonas was stunned as well. He then started to consider if they should rent a dormitory for their
employees.
However, Jasper suggested it first, “Darrel and Jonas, rent out an apartment unit nearby so that
employees who don’t have a place to live can reside there. Include the fees in the operating costs of
the store. We can cut our costs in terms of other aspects, but we cannot mistreat our employees,” he
said.
Both of them nodded in response. Jasper was about to suggest that Wendy could bring Tiffany home
so that she could spend the night at her place when Wendy said, “Tiff, do you want to follow me home
tonight? You can sleep in my room.”
