Yvette noticed Xavier's mood getting darker, and alarm bells rang in her head. Still, she put on a reassuring smile. out her

She said softly, "I can't believe Ms. Sanchez knows Mr. Russell. I was worried! being alone after her divorce, but with Mr. Russell looking out for her, it seems like her life in Soucrity is going to be just fine." fade. Xavier looked at the kind-hearted Yvette, and the coldness in his eyes started to Yvette is always so generous. She's truly the only one I can see myself with for life.

'My earlier frustration might just be because I'm not used to seeing Yasmine laughing and chatting with another guy. That's just my possessive side flaring up. After all, Yasmine used to be minc.'

He leaned down and planted a gentle kiss on Yvette's forehead, holding her hand. "Don't worry, you'll always be the one by my side."

Just as Yasmine and the Russell siblings settled into their private room, Chuck walked in. He was wearing a black chef's coat covered in badges and topped off with a shiny golden chef's hat. "Hey, Yonas. I've been experimenting with many new dishes lately. You've gotta give me some..." He paused, his eyes lighting up in surprise. "Ms. Yasmine? You're here too!"

Yasmine knew about the hierarchy at Paragon Hotel. Even the lowest chef here had at prestigious five-star certification, and everyone had to work their way up.

That black chef's coat and golden hat identified the top chefs at Paragon Hotel- definitely not someone anyone could see. Each dish they crafted came with a hefty price tag, starting at a hundred thousand dollars. Still, the restaurant was always packed with eager diners. Yasmine hadn't expected to see Chuck here, but it made sense-a mediocre chef wouldn't be around Yonas. She nodded at him. "Chef Chuck, good to see you again."

Chuck shot Yonas a teasing look. He was genuinely surprised Yonas had brought Yasmine here for a meal so soon. 'So this is what being a long-time bachelor gets him?' he wondered.

Ignoring Chuck's playful grin, Yonas opened the menu and placed it in front of Yasmine. "Today, Ms. Sanchez is treating us, so she gets to choose the first dish." 12:39 Tue Sep 10 GG Chapter 31

Chuck's eyes widened. 'Is Yonas serious? How can he be so reckless? He knows how pricey things are at the Paragon Hotel, especially my cook. Usually, he doesn't think twice about money, but now that he's chasing a woman, he's suddenly being stingy? 72%

Oblivious to their banter, Yasmine flipped through the menu. Y**s's smooth voice cut in, "Ms. Sanchez, you can try the Grilled Steak with Garlic Butter, Crispy Fish Tacos, and the S**y Garlic Roasted Salmon."

"It seems you know my tasie well, Mr. Russell, Yasmine remarked, noticing that all his recommendations were her favorites.

Yonas chuckled softly, his gaze warm. "I remember you enjoyed the s**y kebab that day."

Yasmine was taken aback. he hadn't expected him to be so thoughtful. She had also tried the curry kebab that day, but he still figured she liked the s**y dishes more. She couldn't help but wonder, 'Is he like this with everyone?" "I'll go with Mr. Russell's recommendations," she said and closed the menu.

What she didn't know was that each dish Chuck prepared started at an eye-popping one hundred thousand dollars.

Chuck grumbled to himself again, Yonas is really stingy. Yasmine has been a stay-at-home mom for the last few years, so she probably doesn't have much saved. up. And now that she's just gone through a divorce, how much can Xavier really give her?" Chuck usually enjoyed earning money for Yonas, but he liked Yasmine's character and. didn't want her to feel obligated to pay. He had made plenty himself, and this meal. wouldn't hurt his finances. So, he decided to speak with the manager later about giving her a huge discount.

Noticing Chuck's distracted expressionline guessed what he was thinking and said in a calm voice, "You don't have to make exceptions for me. Whatever the price is, let it be. I'm fine with it." One meal wouldn't break her. Chuck raised an eyebrow, impressed by Yasmine's straightforwardness. 'She has such great character, unlike Yonas the miser, he thought.

"Alright, that's it today. I'll take care of the bill next time," he said.

After Chuck left, Yonas took his time arranging the wet wipes and utensils in front of Yasmine. The shiny plates and neatly organized forks were set just the way she liked, making her feel a warm flutter in her chest. 3/3 24 Tue Sep

Just as she was about to say "thank you." Yonas spoke up, his tone casual. "Ms. Sanchez. you looked after Yoselin today, and now you're treating us to dinner. I feel a bit embarrassed about it." Yoselin, with a playful tilt of her head, jumped in. "This meal isn't exactly che You better take Yasmine out for a few meals to repay her." Yonas.

Ever since that day in the car when she realized how Yonas felt about Yasmine. Yoselin was determined to play matchmaker. After getting to know Yasmine a little better, her determination only grew. Just then, a group of people walked by outside, their laughter spilling into the private

room.

Yoselin's big eyes lit up. She sprang to her feet and walked out while saying, "I think I just heard my classmates. Yonas, Yasmine, I'll go say hi. You two keep chatting." She hoped that by the time she returned, Yasmine would have been her sister-in-law.

Instantly, the room was left with just Yasmine and Yonas, and the mood felt a bit ambiguous.
