Female Novel
Chapter 944 Emmeline the Entrepreneur
"I'd like to do what I like too," Sam said, "But they don't make me money! If Mr. Ryker hadn't paid methree times what other baristas get, I would've resigned a long time ago!"
"What are you saying? You're here because you're my bodyguard!" Emmeline poked Sam's foreheadwith a finger. "I barely need your services, but Mr. Adelmar still pays you every month anyway! It's likeyou're getting paid four people's salary. I'm sure you must be rich by now!"
Sam stuck out her tongue playfully.
"What do you think? Would you want to expand our business?" Emmeline looked at Sam while grindingsome coffee beans.
"What else can we do?" Sam said while biting her fingertips. "As far as I know, the two of us only knowhow to fight, brew coffee, and make desserts!"
"We'll make desserts then!" Emmeline snapped her fingers.
"Huh? Are you sure?" Sam's eyes widened dramatically.
"That's right. You told me business here will be booming if we serve desserts too, right?" Emmelinesaid.
I was only saying! Why did you have to treat it seriously? Sam thought.
She imagined if Emmeline started making desserts, she and her neighbors would be having dessertsfor breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day.
If she could not sell them, they would have to eat them before the expiry date.
Sam knew better than to discourage Emmeline from starting another business.
"I plan to move the things on the second floor to the third floor," Emmeline pointed at the space aboveher. "We're not using the third floor anyway, and we'll make the second floor a patisserie. What do youthink?"
Does my opinion matter here? Sam thought. She grinned and said, "I hope business will boom, andyou can give me a fat bonus this year!"
All you know is money!" Emmeline said while brewing the coffee. "Are you planning on getting marriedsoon?"
Sam blushed. She stamped her foot and said, "Let's not go into that topic, shall we?"
"What topic?" A man's voice was heard.
The two women turned their heads in unison and saw a man in a worker's uniform and a hard hatstanding at the door.
That man was none other than Luca.
Sam's face turned bright red all of a sudden. Speak of the devil! Ah! I'm so embarrassed!
"Haha!" Emmeline could not help but laugh. "We were just about to talk about him. It's like he travels
faster than the speed of light!" novelbin
"Why are you dressed up like this, Luca? Are you changing your job?" Sam asked.
"We're menial laborers today." Luca pointed behind him. "I'm not the only one."
The glass door opened, and several bodyguards came in.
They were all dressed in blue uniforms and hard hats.
The last one to come in was Abel.
Emmeline could not help but laugh. "You really look like a worker!"
Abel waved his arm. "It's best to strike while the iron is hot. We'll support Mrs. Ryker in expanding herbusiness! Let's go up to the second floor and change it into a patisserie!"
"Let's go!" Luca brought the bodyguards to the second floor and moved the furniture to the third floor.
Emmeline had just finished brewing a cup of coffee. Abel took the cup from her.
"I haven't added any sugar or milk yet," Emmeline said.
"I like it this way," Abel said. "Coffee is the best reflection of one's love."
So are you feeling bitter? Emmeline thought.
Sam wanted to laugh but did not. She knew that Abel was teasing Emmeline, so it was none of herbusiness.
Sam thought for a while and ran upstairs.
"Let me help you, Luca!"
"See that?" Emmeline said as she glanced at Sam. "That's the best reflection of one's love!"
"So what's going on between us then?"
