Chapter 37: 37 : Big Deal [ Bonus Chapter ]
Inside the office, Felix sat on the chair behind the desk with a pensive expression on his face. After opening the restaurant and welcoming some guests, he assigned tasks to Trinity and the others.
He and Nixie would take care of the third floor, Trinity and Gwendolyn the second floor, and Zephyr and Brixton the first floor.
Because the third floor was exclusive and expensive, so customers rarely visited.
The food here was pricey. Felix had left the third floor for Nixie to manage when a waiter informed him that someone wanted to meet him there.
" I hope this is not one of those arrogant and pretentious young masters " Felix sigh and shook his head.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Felix composed himself.
"Enter," he said softly. The waiter entered with a girl and Houston.
"Boss, this person wants to meet you," the waiter said, bowing to Felix.
"Thank you, you can go back to work," Felix replied with a smile.
" Ok boss "The waiter left, and Felix assessed the girl and Houston.
Felix sized up the girl in front of him, he was surprised, he a powerful aura emanating from the girl but he can decern her Mana Cultivation level especially Houston behind her, he gives him a dangerous feeling.
Felix face was solemn as he looked at both of them, he is sure that both of them were not to be triffle with and their background might be strong.
The girl smiled as she observed Felix. "Interesting," she remarked, her eyes flickering with curiosity.
Felix felt uneasy and uncomfortable under her gaze.
"Ahem.. I heard you wanted to see me?" Felix asked, clearing his throat.
" Hello, I'm Felix Morningstar. May I ask your name, Miss? Felix took a deep breath and flashed a gentle and professional smile.
The girl smiled back, "My name is Seraphine Netherfrost, but you can call me Seraphine."
Felix nodded, "Well, Miss Seraphine, I heard you wanted to see me."
"Mr. Felix aren't you going to ask us to sit down?" Seraphine asked with a smile.
Felix was momentarily stunned, but quickly regained his composure.
"Look at my manners, I'm sorry Miss Seraphine. Please, come and have a seat." Felix led them to the couches and poured some wine for Seraphine and Houston.
If someone from Earth were here, they would notice that the wine being served was the famous Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon 1992, which cost $500,000 back on Earth. Felix had bought it from the system store, along with all the other wines in the restaurant.
Felix handed the wine glasses to Seraphine and Houston, then sat across from Seraphine.
"Please, Miss Seraphine, try this wine. It's one of our most limited and expensive selections."
Seraphine smiled, took a sip and was pleasantly surprised by the delicious and unique taste.
"How was it, Miss Seraphine?" Felix asked with a smile.
Seraphine looked at Felix, "Mr. Felix, I have to say this wine is really unique. I've never tasted such fine wine before."
Felix smiled proudly, knowing that the Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon 1992 was a top-notch wine from Earth.
"So, Miss Seraphine, how was your experience in the restaurant?" Felix elegantly took a sip of his wine and asked.
"Mr. Felix, I must say that your restaurant is truly exceptional. The operation you run is unlike any other high-class establishment I have encountered. Your dishes are not only delicious, but also unique - some of them I have never seen or heard of before. Your restaurant is truly one of a kind," Seraphine complimented with elegance.
"Thank you for your kind words," Felix replied with a smile.
"Now, Miss Seraphine, you mentioned that you wanted to discuss something with me?" Felix inquired curiously.
Seraphine chuckled, "Yes, Mr. Felix, that is correct."
"In that case, how may I assist you? Is there something specific you need from me?" Felix asked with a serious expression.
"Well, Mr. Felix, since you put it that way, I will get straight to the point. I have recently returned from the Capital City and I am looking to host a banquet for the Young Masters and Misses of the various Noble Families in Bridgemoor City.
I have been searching for a suitable venue, although your restaurant have just been build but I have heard that your restaurant is one of the most beautiful and luxurious in the city. I also heard that you have a banquet hall, which sets you apart from other establishments. I have come to inquire about the possibility of hosting my banquet in your banquet hall," Seraphine explained patiently.
Felix's hand trembled slightly as he held his wine glass, surprise evident in his eyes as he looked at Seraphine.
"Miss Seraphine, what you have heard is indeed true. Our restaurant does have a banquet hall that is perfect for hosting events such as banquets and parties," Felix confirmed.
"Will there be any issues if I reserve the banquet hall?" Seraphine asked.
Felix shook his head, "No, Miss Seraphine. You are more than welcome to hold your banquet here."
"That's good," Seraphine smiled.
"Miss Seraphine, when will the banquet be held and how many people will be invited?" Felix inquired.
After a moment of consideration, Seraphine replied, "The banquet will take place in three days. As for the number of guests, I am unsure, but I am certain that it will not exceed one hundred people." Felix nodded as they delved into the specifics.
Felix was secretly thrilled, as he had not anticipated such a significant opportunity. The reputation of a high-end restaurant is crucial, as most businesses rely heavily on it to attract customers. If he could execute the event flawlessly, his restaurant would undoubtedly flourish.
The Young Masters and Misses from the Noble Families of Bridgemoor City would be in attendance, and if the restaurant left a lasting impression on them, its reputation would be solidified.
After a few minutes of discussion, Felix said, "I have taken note of all your requirements, Miss Seraphine."
"Thank you, Mr. Felix," Seraphine replied with a smile.
Felix hesitated, "Miss Seraphine, while we can meet your requirements, I believe the price..."
Seraphine shook her head, "Do not worry about the price, Mr. Felix. You can calculate the total cost after the banquet."
"Understood, Miss Seraphine," Felix said with a smile.
" Ok Miss Seraphine " Felix smiled.
" Well then Mr. Felix I'll be heading back " Seraphine stood up with a smile.
" Ok, then let me see you off " Felix stood up and opened the door for her.
They descended in the exclusive wooden elevator to the first floor and exited the restaurant.
A valet brought Seraphine's carriage to her.
" Well then Mr. Felix see you soon "
Seraphine lightly waved her hand and got into the carriage.
"Take care on the road, Miss Seraphine. I look forward to seeing you soon," Felix smile.
---------------
Inside the carriage Seraphine chuckled slightly," What an interesting and unsual guy ".
----------------
" Hmm..Netherfrost, were have I heard that name " Felix narrowed his eyes as he looked at the receding back of the carriage.
