Chapter 296

Culinary Paradise was known for its signature dishes and take–out, but since the food needed to be freshly made, Emily had to wait for a while outsid. In the meanwhile, she took the opportunity to finish her dinner.

Upon entering the hotel lobby, a waiter handed her the packed food with a reminder, “Two boxes contain pastries. Make sure they don’t get wet!” Emily nodded with a smile and placed everything neatly in the take–out box.
