Chapter 185 Farewell

When the doorbell rang, Alexander was the one who answered it.

Xavier had come by to drop off the food himself.

Seeing Alexander, he grinned and handed over the food containers. "Mr. Carter, you're here too. Awesome. These are all dishes Ms. Bennett loves. There's plenty, so dig in."

Alexander nodded, took the containers, and pulled out a card from his pocket to give to Xavier.

"Mr. Carter, no need for that. The Ellis family restaurants are owned by Ms. Bennett. We can't take your money," Xavier said.

"This is from Hunter," Alexander explained. "Ever since he started learning from Kismet, he's been wanting to show his gratitude, but Kismet wouldn't accept it. This is a token of his appreciation from the Shaw family. Please take it."

The Shaw family's restaurant chain was a big deal in the food industry, so keeping good relations with them was smart. That was one reason Kismet agreed to teach Hunter.

But the main reason was Hunter's dedication and passion for cooking. His meticulous approach really impressed Kismet.

"But my mom always said she didn't take students for the money," Xavier insisted.

Alexander smiled and slipped the card into Xavier's pocket. "I know. The restaurant used all your family's savings and borrowed money. This should be enough to pay off all the loans. You can talk to Kismet about whether to issue an IOU or give Hunter some shares."

This time, Xavier didn't refuse. He nodded and smiled. "Mr. Carter, you're thorough. With you by Ms. Bennett's side, we can relax."

Xavier looked at Alexander with relief before heading out.

Allison, noticing Alexander hadn't come back from the door, ran over. "What's going on? Did Xavier leave?"
