Chapter 148 Martha’s Sick

“I’ve seen that dish before, too! Only The Grand Regent can pull off that dish like this!”

“It smells so good! Is it too late to switch crews just for lunch?”

The aroma had people swooning, and a few even asked the film director if they could work for

a day with no pay, just to get a plate.

When the signature entree finally hit the table, people teared up after the very first bite.

“This is it! It’s so incredible that I could just die content!”

“We’re blessed to be on this crew!”

Onlookers started wavering. “Wait. Are those actually The Grand Regent chefs?”

Someone pulled up the restaurant’s homepage. “They just posted that they are closed today, which means the chefs are out on a special job. It’s real!”

Everyone checked their phones and finally realized how ridiculous they’d been. They were clearly chefs from The Grand Regent!

Natalie’s face went dark. She couldn’t even get a reservation at The Grand Regent, yet Nancy had their chefs cooking on set. How was that possible?

Jealousy crawled under her skin like ants.

“What are you still standing here for?” Hillary barked. “We don’t have leftovers for you! Take your scraps and get off our turf!”

The

posse

behind Natalie flushed as they looked over the trays they had brought.

“So Natalie really tried to make them eat her leftovers?”

“Seriously? Who can’t afford lunch here? We’ve got The Grand Regent’s chefs cooking for us!”

“They thought they were so posh with The Silver Garden for lunch, but it’s nothing next to The Grand Regent!”

The snickers hit like open-handed slaps.

Wendy turned pale, while Natalie was so furious that her fingers shook and her mind reeled.

Then, Natalie spun on her heel and stalked back to her side.

Silence fell over her set. None of the earlier cheer remained.

Elsewhere, Natalie dropped onto the couch in their lounge.

Her assistant brought a plate. “Natalie, eat something.”

Natalie smacked it away. “Eat, eat, eat! How am I supposed to eat?”

She had just tried to crush Nancy, but Nancy still somehow came out on top. How could life be so unfair?

Across the set, the team enjoyed their meal, while the onlookers, tortured by the smell, left

one by one.

Hillary leaned in and whispered, “Nancy, how did you even get The Grand Regent to cook on

site?”

“I have no idea,” Nancy whispered back. “Because Gideon did it.”

“Of course he did!” Hillary shot her a thumbs-up, grinning. “Did you see Wendy’s and Natalie’s faces? It looked like they swallowed flies. Maybe now they will stop acting up!”

Nancy nodded and texted Gideon a simple thanks.

He replied immediately, “Darling, thanks should not be just words.”

“What do you want then?” she typed back.

“A kiss,” he replied simply.

Nancy’s cheeks warmed, and she decisively left him on read.

After the chefs packed up, the crew members took a short break and rolled the cameras again.

Next door, it was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. Meanwhile, Nancy’s side had already settled into a groove.

Hillary looked satisfied. “That felt good! Your strategy certainly did the trick. They’re as quiet

as mice now!”

“Use your head, not your fists,” Nancy said.

“Copy that. It’s no wonder Winter and her group are scared of you.”

The two chatted a bit longer. With the mini-crisis handled, Nancy decided to head out.

On the drive back, Nancy passed the Fuller Group branch office, and on impulse, pulled in. The moment she stepped inside, she bumped right into Corey.

“Ms. Moore, are you here to see Mr. Fuller?” he asked.

“Yeah. Is he in?” she asked.

“He is. Take this elevator to the 28th floor,” Corey replied.
