There was a brief silence in the car.

Ernest seemed like he was going to go head to head with Quill. He spoke harshly as if he wanted to force him.

After a long while, Quill took out his mobile phone and started to make a call.

Ernest squinted his eyes and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm calling a driver for you," Quill said.

Ernest was stunned and then he laughed. "Do you have to do that? It's just a joke. Why do you have to act as if you were bullied?" He said.

Quill ignored him. He had already made the phone call. Upon seeing this, Ernest felt helpless and reached out to press the screen.

"Let's stop it, shall we? My head hurts. Let's go home," Ernest finally said.

Quill turned his head and looked at him with an expressionless face. His eyes were blank.

"Remember that you still owe me a favor. You haven't paid it back. I'll find another opportunity to ask for it in the future," Ernest said as he retracted his hand. He leaned against the seat and closed his eyes with a tired look.

Quill didn't argue with him anymore upon seeing his friend being uncomfortable. He put his phone away and started driving.

As the sun was setting, the sky gradually darkened. There were more customers in the restaurant when it was dinner time.

Vera didn't expect that business would be so good on the first day. She didn't even have time to eat for the entire day. Both employees were also very busy.

Even Mabie and David stayed to help.

Minerva was pregnant. As such, no one dared to ask her to do anything. She didn't cause any trouble herself. Although she wasn't working, it didn't mean that she wouldn't ask others to help instead. She gave Maddox a nudge as she stood beside him.

"The restaurant seems to be very busy. Why don't... Why don't you help serve the dishes?" Minerva said.

His mouth twitched as he was being nudged. "Serve the dishes?"

It seemed that he couldn't believe what he heard even if it was Minerva who said it. However, to ask him to serve the dishes...
