Chapter 17 - Acquisition-3

After arranging everything in the office, Eleanor headed directly to Manchester235 Casino. Teresa had booked the Chef's Table at James Martin Manchester for her meeting with Edward Miller, Chairman of Fortune Tech.

James Martin Manchester was a spectacular restaurant that retained elements of the historic Great Northern Warehouse, such as exposed brickwork and industrial-chic steel girders. The selection of luxury vintage-style fabrics and artwork created an incredible dining atmosphere there.

The Chef's Table was located in a private space, separated from the main restaurant by elegant curtains. Eleanor had frequently visited this place during her university days at the University of Manchester.

Upon arriving, the Floor Manager personally escorted her from the lift to the Chef's Table, where she found Edward Miller already waiting. As expected, he was alone.

"Sorry, Mr. Miller, I hope you haven't been waiting long. I am Eleanor Elizabeth Raynor, Chairman of Heimdall Technologies. It's nice to meet you," she said as she approached the table.

Edward, despite being the older of the two, stood up as she arrived. "Not long at all. Please, have a seat."

She took her seat across from him. "Thank you. Have you ordered your lunch yet?"

"No," he admitted. "This is my first time dining here, so I was waiting for you."

"Alright then, I'll take the liberty of being the host." She turned to the floor manager and said, "Please take note of our order: two Spiced Onion Bhajis, one Roast Provençal Vegetable Pithivier for the gentleman, one Porterhouse for me, two Caesar salads, two servings of peppercorn sauce, and one bottle of Dom Pérignon. Please serve as soon as possible. Thank you."
