Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 497

Just the sight of the person beside Victoria was enough to make Yvette lose her appetite.

“See? I told you, Victoria. She really doesn’t like you. You shouldn’t be so nice to someone who isn’t going to reciprocate your kindness!” Alice quickly grabbed the chance to pit Victoria against Yvette.

Victoria’s gaze dimmed even further, and she felt down in the dumps.

Alice, however, had a smug glow in her eyes. That was exactly what she wanted–for Victoria

and Yvette to be at odds. That way, she’d be able to make use of Victoria and deal with Yvette harshly!

But Victoria still kindly offered, “Why don’t you come along with us, Yvie? You won’t be able

to enter otherwise…”

Yvette raised an eyebrow lazily and answered, “That won’t be necessary.”

Alice couldn’t hold back a mocking laugh when she heard that. She looked at Yvette in disdain.

What a joke! She was truly a country bumpkin who didn’t know any better! Hah! She claimed that it wouldn’t be necessary for her to enter with them? She wouldn’t even be able to set foot

in Royal Crown Kitchen if she wasn’t a VIP!

Alice couldn’t wait to see how pathetic Yvette would appear when she was thrown out by the security guards.

But before Alice was done laughing, the manager of Royal Crown Kitchen, Rowan Chapman, came hurrying over.

“Victoria, I’m sure the manager learned that you’ve come, which is why he’s here to welcome you!” Alice immediately began showering Victoria with flattery. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“What an honor it is to have the manager personally come and welcome you! Then again, you’re a VIP here at Royal Crown Kitchen. There are only a handful of Royal Crown Kitchen VIPS in the entire city!”

“Alright, alright. That’s enough, Alice.”

But Alice was having none of that. She continued loftily, “Victoria, Mr. Quinn treats you so well! Unlike someone else, who’s not even fit to set foot in Royal Crown Kitchen-”

Before Alice could finish her words, Rowan swiftly passed them and headed over to Yvette, addressing her deferentially.

“My apologies for the hold up!”

The smug expression on Alice’s face froze up instantly as she watched on incredulously.

“Have you got the wrong person, Mr. Chapman? She isn’t even a VIP at Royal Crown Kitchen! She has no right to enter!”

Rowan couldn’t be bothered to answer Alice. Instead, he continued speaking respectfully to Yvette, “The private room on the top floor is ready for you!”

Alice was even more at a loss when she heard that. The private room on the top–most floor of Royal Crown Kitchen was never open to public! Even Victoria, who was a VIP, could only dine at the reception area, so how was it possible that Yvette could enter the private room on the top floor?

“What’s going on here, Mr. Chapman? Why are you letting someone who’s not a VIP enter? And you’re even giving her the private–room on the top floor, when we can only dine at the reception area? I demand a reasonable explanation for this!”

“How noisy.” A hint of frustration appeared in Yvette’s eyes as she said coldly, “Get her out of

here.“.

Alice rolled her eyes and scoffed at that. Did Yvette really think she could throw them out just because she said so? Who did she think she was?

She might be the daughter of the Murray family, but the owner of Royal Crown Kitchen had a peculiar personality. He knew that the food he served was good, so he never went out of his way to stay in the good books of any of the prestigious families.

So, Yvette’s identity as the daughter of the Murray family and Wilson’s fiancée was of no help to her here at Royal Crown Kitchen.

How dare she instruct them to get Alice out of there when the person whom they should really be getting rid of was Yvette herself, the wench who wasn’t a VIP!
