Also, since the Somertons knew that Caroline's business was thriving, there was no way they would throw away the opportunity to leech her off.

As he had expected, Edwin and Liam went to her by the next day's noon.

Edwin's eyes lit up when he saw how packed the restaurant was. He said to Liam, "If I'd known running an F&B business would rack up so much money, we never should have started the factory business."

Running a factory was tedious and tiring. Eventually, they even went bankrupt and got themselves in tons of debt.

Looking at the thriving business now, they thought if they had opened a restaurant back then as well, they would have been able to afford a villa now.

After selling the villa back then, he actually wanted to purchase another one after he earned enough. Unfortunately, his factory failed, and the business was closed down.

"Edwin, it's not too late to realize it now. The thing is, Caroline is too tough!" Liam said angrily when he mentioned Caroline. "Even if we turn up, I don't think she'd agree to expand the business and allow us to join."

Edwin wasn't certain either, but since Caroline had told Miguel that she wanted them to come personally, maybe, it wasn't as bad as they had expected.

He said to Liam, "Behave yourself and control your tone. Whatever you're dissatisfied about can be discussed after the restaurant business expanded. Keep it until then."

Once everything was settled, he would have Liam teach Caroline a lesson. Or else, she was really going to go overboard and even disrespect the family.

This was for her own good. This way, she wouldn't ruin her potential and prospects recklessly.

Liam felt reluctant, but still agreed. "Got it."

He had been working for Grayson Group. It was miserable; to the point where he even lost weight.

He was extremely desperate to leave as soon as possible.

He told himself to endure it this time, since it was for himself.

They both walked into the restaurant. They figured Caroline must be in the kitchen when they didn't see her in the dining area.

They went to the back. Maia spotted them walking toward the kitchen when she had just finished se table. She blocked their path and said, "Here to meet Caroline?"

Liam glared at her with hostility in his eyes. "Who else? You?"

He could endure it if it was Caroline, but not anyone else.

Especially not this woman because she'd worked as a maid at his house for only

a couple of days before running away,

Because of her, he came home every day to no hot meals and no one to do his laundry.

And with the family still in debt, they couldn't afford to hire a new maid.

Maia's expression darkened. "Caroline is busy in the kitchen right now. Please come back later!"

It was peak hour, which was the busiest time of the day.

Caroline was swamped with work. She had no time to talk to anyone.

Maia blocked their path at the doorway.

Liam tried to push her away but Edwin stopped him.

Edwin gave Liam a warning glance, then said to Maia, "We won't bother her too much. Just ned to talk to her for a bit."

Caroline might be busy, but surely, she could talk, right?

However, Maia didn't budge. "Sorry, but no. She can't multitask."

Liam couldn't hold back anymore. "Who the hell do you think you are? You think you can stop us?"

Caroline was the boss here, so as her family member, he considered himself the boss too. Maia was just a worker here; who gave her the right to stop them?

She was loud enough to attract attention of some customers.

Edwin knew if they disrupted Caroline's business now, it would lower their chances of workng with her.

Hence, he quickly pulled Liam out.

Once they were far enough, Edwin said, "Have you forgotten what I told you?"

"No!" Liam replied, and added, “But did you see Maia's attitude? How dare she makes things difficult for us?"

"Enough. Let's just wait," Edwin said as he glanced around. He spotted another restaurant nearby and said, "Let's eat something and come back later."

The lunch rush would probably last a while..

So, they might as well take their time eating and come back when things calmed down.

Meanwhile, in the kitchen.

Caroline saw Maia come in with a scowl, and asked, "Did you manage to brush them off?"

She heard Liam's loud voice just now, and she knew why he was here.noveldrama
