“Sorry, I’m not interested.”
Marco frowned.
“The salary Bryant Group will pay you will be more than ten times the amount you get here.”
Tonio looked straight at him this time, but his eyes had a look of indifference in them. “I know you don’t
lack money, but I don’t want it. Please leave if you’ve finished your meal. Don’t insult me with your
stinky money.”
Marco’s face darkened in anger and Loraine couldn’t help Laughing.
“What are you laughing at?” Marco demanded. The fact that she was laughing at him instead of
speaking up for him made him feel disappointed and depressed.
Loraine tried to hold back her Laughter and said jokingly, “It seems you only know how to use money to
win people’s heart.”
“So you think you can do better?” Marco scoffed.
Without hesitation, Loraine turned to Tonio and said earnestly, “Mr.

Pavani, I’m Loraine Torres of Universe Group. We are working together with Bryant Group to develop a
new CBD in Vagow that will have a series of commercial buildings, shopping malls, entertainment
facilities and so on. The first thing we want to do is to build a top-notch catering area. After tasting your
marvelous dishes, Marco and I decided to invite you to join us.”
Seeing how friendly she was, Tonio dropped his guard and said, “I don’t want to embarrass you by
being boastful, but frankly, I’ve worked in several high-end restaurants before and I’m already tired of
managing big restaurants. The brand premium is too much, which sometimes leads to overlooking
quality food and good taste. So, I want to focus on cooking rather than making a lot of money.”
“You are quite right! I can’t agree more.” Loraine nodded in concurrence, with a bright smile.
“But Mr. Pavani, I’m telling you now that I want to have the best restaurant, not the most flashy or
expensive one.”

Tonio was obviously moved by this statement, and his expression softened a lot.
“Mr. Pavani, if you join us, more and more people will taste your food and your style will be
widespread,” Loraine added.
Feeling her sincerity, Tonio finally made up his mind and stretched out his hand.
“Well, if you promise to keep your word, I’ll accept your invitation.”
Loraine shook hands with him happily and they both agreed on the day and time to formally discuss the
partnership.
After Tonio left, Marco frowned in confusion. “I offered him the best conditions. Why did he refuse me
and end up agreeing with you?”
Wasn’t it a big deal for the CEO of Bryant Group to personally invite a chef?
Loraine glanced at him and sneered, “You always act as if you’re a dictator. You order people to do
what you want. You’re Lucky he didn’t kick you out. Look, people are not commodities. They need
emotional communication.”
Marco kept quiet and began to think back.
He regarded his marriage to Loraine as a deal, right?
