Chapter 193
Eliana had no idea what Alissa had done. She followed Alissa’s pointing finger to the corner of the restaurant.
In the corner there was a colorful glass window.
The weather was lovely today. The sun shone through the multicolored glass and onto the man’s handsome face. The scene looked like a painting.
“Sir, would you like to order?”
The man turned around.
“Maurice! It’s you!”
Eliana was shocked.
Maurice raised his eyebrows. “Why are you so surprised?” he asked pointedly.
Eliana hadn’t forgotten when Maurice had fired her.
She ground her teeth together, turned away, and left without saying a word.
“Where are you going? Is this how Wyatt taught you to serve guests?”
Maurice narrowed his eyes in annoyance.
He didn’t come here just to have her ignore him.
Eliana stopped. Reluctantly, she turned around and walked back.
She couldn’t forget that she was a waitress and Maurice was a customer.
“Sir, what would you like to order?” Eliana forced herself to smile.
Maurice raised his eyebrows. He found it amusing to watch Eliana smile at him despite her fury.
“I remember that you used to hate doing this. Why have you decided to be a waitress now?”
Maurice knew how to get under Eliana’s skin.
Eliana clenched her fists.
“I don’t care if my job is good or bad. We’re equal. If there were no waitresses, who would serve you? You can choose not to go out for dinner.”
The two exchanged icy glares. Neither was willing to admit defeat.
Meanwhile, Alissa’s revenge had already begun.
She tore off Eliana’s sticky note and waited excitedly for the chef to prepare the dishes for Table 10.
As soon as the food was ready, she brought it out to Table 10.
“Sir, ma’am, your food is ready.”
The couple seated at Table 10 were busy flirting with each other. They didn’t notice if the food contained nuts.
Alissa kept an eye on Table 10 after she gave them their food. She was relieved when they ate the food with nuts.
‘Eliana is about to be in trouble!’ she thought.
Soon enough, the man at Table 10 started to have an allergic reaction.
“Honey, your face!” The woman covered her mouth and stared in horror at the rash that had started to form on her boyfriend’s face and neck.
“What’s wrong?” Only then did he notice something was wrong. He looked down at his hands. “Damn it! My hands!”
His shout could be heard throughout the whole restaurant.
Alissa hurried to the table.
“Sir, what is wrong?” she asked anxiously.
“Why are there nuts in the food?” The man pointed furiously at the plates.
“Let me have a look. Oh, this is our specialty fried steak. There is nut powder in the sauce to enhance the flavor. Is there a problem?”
“It’s a big problem! Didn’t I say that I’m allergic to nuts? How can you be this incompetent?”
The man rolled up his sleeves, revealing horrible rashes all over his arms.
“Oh my God, I didn’t know. Are you sure you told my coworkers?” Alissa pretended to be surprised.
The woman glanced around furiously until she saw Eliana’s back. Pointing at her, she snapped, “It was her. She took our order. I told her over and over that my boyfriend can’t eat nuts. She must have forgotten.”
Eliana heard the commotion coming from Table 10.
She immediately abandoned Maurice and walked over.
“What happened here?”
Rosalie also rushed over after noticing the noise.
Alissa pointed at Eliana in front of everyone.
“Ms. Gordon, Eliana forgot that this gentleman can’t eat nuts. Now he is having an allergic reaction!”
She was certain that Eliana would be punished this time!
