Chapter 246 She Likes Zack (Part One)
The arrival of the Medical Valley's head hardly affected Harper, nor was she rattled by it. As Matthew's restaurant had re-opened, she made her way out of the mansion ahead of time and never had the opportunity to meet him.
After Harper had served the delicious cakes in the tea party, many customers had arrived for the opening ceremony of the restaurant. The Champion Restaurant was bustling along, busy as a hive.
"Oh my God, can you believe this?! Looking at the place, you'd never believe that this used to be Uncle Matthew's battered restaurant that couldn't even bring in a single dust bunny!" Lilian looked around in pure disbelief at the changes. All Matthew knew was warcraft; he was good at that. And he hadn't a head for business at all. Though he did have several shops located in good spots, they were never managed well. But when she walked into the Champion Restaurant, she found everything had changed.
Lucas smirked, clearly fascinated by the developments. He waved the folding fan in his hand and remarked, "Uncle Matthew's wife does know how to pull off a surprise."
"Harper—" The name
" Harper replied sensibly. "Everyone knows that I'm on good terms with the Bu Clan." She grinned at Caroline.
"So you say, but our Bu Clan and Prince Matthew haven't been on good terms in a while. My brother said that we should have absolutely nothing to do with Prince Matthew. And if the people in your mansion should offend him, he wouldn't let the prince get away with it," Caroline murmured to her conspiratorially.
"Ahem, ahem..." Harper cleared her throat twice, raising her brows at Caroline pointedly.
At that, Caroline sat up. "Harper, I'm serious! It would be incredible if you were to marry my brother. Look at him, he's gentle, handsome, and he's well-educated with a broad mind. Just imagine how wonderful your life would be if you married him! It would be heavenly compared to what's in Prince Matthew's mansion. And he's certainly more interesting than the prince. He'd never even behave so coldly to you. Come on, I'm serious. Why not consider divorcing the prince and becoming my sister-in-law instead?" Caroline's smile was wide and triumphant, as though she'd just solved everything.
