[BONUS CHAPTER]
That day, Theo almost arrived late for the night service of the restaurant.
Because climbing up and down the hill of the property at the Pedrarruna Forest was too hard.
Even him, with his enhanced physique and senses, almost got lost in the forest when they were climbing down.
But he was happy with the difficulty of climbing the hill.
He thought it would be another security measure for him and Aurora at their house.
Theo cooked normally that night.
He also noticed that the demand was becoming too high for only 6 cooks.
'I should hire more cooks. The orders are leaving a little later than I want.' Theo thought as he finished the service that night.
Thinking about that, Theo went to June to talk about it.
"Hey, June, how was the service today?" Theo asked her as he arrived at her office.
"Boss, we managed to book all the private rooms for the entire week. So, we are sold out for the entire week. It seems that a food critic of the Elffire Journal wrote a good review about the restaurant. And because of it, the restaurant became even more famous citywide." June replied as she looked at the numbers of today's service.
And it happened exactly that.
Luis Pratt, a.k.a. the 'snake tong', wrote a review about 'The Spark' restaurant in the daily edition of the newspaper. The review was like a bomb to the readers of the journal.
It was a rare occurrence to read a good review from the 'snake tong' and every restaurant that earned a good review from him, were renowned restaurants nationwide.
As one of the biggest cities in the country, Elffire City had a share of the best chefs in the country.
And reading that a new restaurant shared the same privilege, shocked the readers.
They became avid to taste the dishes of the new restaurant. Especially the high-class citizens of the city, who could afford to pay for the private rooms of Theo's restaurant.
"It is exactly because of that I came here. The workload of the cooks is becoming too heavy for only 6 cooks. I want you to call for an interview for assistant cooks. They don't need to be too experienced. But they can't be too old too. The openings are for 3 assistant cooks." Theo said to June.
"I will take care of it, boss. Until the end of the week, the candidates will be ready for you to interview." June replied.
"Thank you." Theo nodded and smiled at her.
'It is great to have someone to take care of these things for me' he thought as he appreciated June's work.
They talked more as they exited the restaurant, as it was already late.
Two days later, Theo was at the real estate agency signing down the contract of purchase of the land at the Pedrarruna Forest.
"Thank you for doing business with you." Theo smiled at the now old owner of the property.
"Same here." the man replied.
Theo exited the building with a contract on his hands.
Afterwards, he went towards his house and placed the contract inside a safe. This safe was where he kept the original documents of all his properties.
"I should keep these documents inside a bank or a safe with more security. Maybe I can put a vault safe at the house...' Theo brainstormed another idea about his house.
After leaving his apartment, Theo drove his car towards his new property.
He wanted to inspect the whole land.
Only by seeing the whole property, he would be able to project the house in the best way possible.
He parked his car at the end of a street.
This street was full of mansions. As they were located at a great location and close to the city. From where Theo parked his car to this restaurant or company's office, it would take at the max time, 30 minutes of driving.
And a huge city like Elffire City, thirty minutes driving to the destiny, it was nothing.
At the end of the street, it was where a hill full of trees was located. And consequently, it was where the Pedrarruna Forest started.
But it was also this part of the forest that Theo bought.
Theo exited his car and started looking around.
Theo liked this property because it was isolated but at the same, it wasn't isolated.
His house would be close and at the same time, his neighbors wouldn't be able to see it.
He entered the forest and started walking around the perimeter of the property, which was also the perimeter of the hill.
The hill had a 2-kilometer base and 500 meters of height.
The hill was super steep and full of trees, so he would take some days to inspect the whole property.
He started walking through the forest and after 1 hour of walking, he saw some squirrels, birds and a pack of Deers.
'This forest is indeed protected by the state. These animals exist here so close to the city.' Theo thought
After some time, he arrived at the back of the hill and stopped to take a rest.
He looked upwards and saw the top of the hill was not visible with all the forest surrounding it. He also remembered that from the street it was not possible to see the top of it, either.
'This is perfect' Theo thought as he stood up and continued his inspection.
After a few hours he arrived back at the street, he went all around the perimeter and that took hours because he had to look at everything carefully.
It would take days for the whole property to be inspected.
And for the next few days, Theo walked through the whole property.
He took pictures, draw some sketches, observed animals that frequented the hill, and all other types of inspections.
One day he noticed that the hill had the ground made of stones, the stones that named the forest, Pedrarruna. And because of it, the hill was absurdly firm.
Theo was relieved, it was often usual to see hills collapsing after heavy rains. But because the hill was made of stone, his house would not collapse after raining.
On the last day of inspection, Theo climbed the hill to the top.
He wanted to verify the space up there, to see if it was large enough for the plans he had.
And he was pleasantly satisfied as he looked at the top of the hill.
The top of the hill had a least 300 meters of length and 500 meters of width.
'It seems that I will be able to project some neat stuff' Theo thought as he looked towards the city.
The top of the hill had an amazing view of the city.
It was possible to see the whole city sections.
North, South, East, and West. And finally, it was possible to see the commercial district with its huge skyscrapers towering over the city.
Theo took a picture and took the measures of the place.
Afterwards, he started heading down the hill.
But as he was leaving the forest, he heard a weak cry nearby.
He was intrigued and followed the sound.
It was then that he saw a heartbreaking scene.
