My Dreamy Old Husband

Stanley did not know what to say now. The Crimson House was the most luxurious and well-known food and beverage outlet in Bayside City. He often heard of people spending up to a million in one sitting there, and seats were especially hard to book. He had only eaten there once for Judge and Sunset’s birthday. He did not think that his own birthday was worthy enough either.

Sophia assumed that the people being invited out for dinner were just the few founding members of the company, so she gathered them together after work. To her surprise, Sam asked, “Oh? Just the four of you? Get the others to come along as well!”

She blinked at him, unsure of who he meant by the others. He quickly said, “The whole company, of course. I love chatting with younger people.”

Sophia froze. There are over two hundred people at the company. The restaurant might not even have enough seats to accommodate everyone. I heard the food is also very expensive there. With two hundred hungry people, he’s going to go broke!

Sam did not think much of it. “It’s fine. I’ve already booked the place. There’s a Crimson House a few hundred meters away from the company. We can walk there.”

While Sophia and the other founding members exchanged glances with each other, the other employees were already jumping for joy upon hearing that Sam was inviting them out for a big meal. Before Sophia could greet them, they swarmed right past her and headed toward the nearest Crimson House.

The staff cheered. Everyone was waiting eagerly for dinner. Sophia did not want to spoil their excitement so she also followed along.

The hall and booths were filled with young people in identical work attire. One of the booths was occupied by only five people—Sophia, Sean, Stanley, Sarah, and Sam. When the waiter brought them the menu, Sophia was shocked to see the prices of each dish. D*mn! You’re kidding me. This is so expensive! A single fish cost tens of thousands. Is this a robbery? Oh, no. With over two hundred employees, one being a bigger eater than the other, Sam is going to be broke!

She remembered Annabel talking about a restaurant she worked at in her diary. Cooper had also dined at that restaurant and the two fell for each other after several encounters. Does that mean Annabel once
