"Old man, you are not upset with , right?" After the end of the launch conference, Samuel stood nervously in front of Georgio Armani. His brazen persona was nowhere to be seen.
"Humph, what's good to bla you now? What's done is done." Georgio Armani looked at him angrily. But Samuel didn't feel any ill will in his eyes.
"Master is the best! I was only spouting nonsense anyways." Samuel curled his lips and chuckled a bit.
" Brat! Are you taking it lightly? It is not enough, but your statents were not wrong. It is foolish to think otherwise; if you want to make a living in soone else's place, you should put away your prejudice at the door!" Just as the old man was starting to give 'life' lessons to him, he decided to head out.
"I get it, sir; then I will follow your teachings first!" Taking Liliana and Rosaline's hand, Samuel left the Broadway theatre. He also invited Koo Hye-sun with him.
...
...
...
Samuel invited Koo Hye-sun to have dinner with him. After all, the girls overdid a little with their diet to participate in the press conference. They were already complaining, especially Rosaline, who was new to this.
"It's already ten; it will be hard to visit any fancy restaurants," Liliana said; she was suggesting grabbing takeout or sothing, but they had Hye-sun with them; unlike them, she was a celebrity, so it would be rude to her.
" We can't return to the manor; I must be ho today. I have already stretched the vacation lie long enough." Rosaline reminded him.
" I know, don't worry. I will have you ho by midnight. Also, it would be ideal for telling them if you are anxious, I can be there with you."
" Wow, and what will you tell them? I am dating your daughter and ten other won!" Liliana chuckled, making it sound like a joke, but Samuel didn't know how to respond.
" Ten?" He asked. Where did that number co from?
" Iblis, Paige, and Maia, just to na a few. You have to know people gossip!." Liliana laughed; she enjoyed his ever-changing face as she nad different girls in his life.
" I will take care of it, and stop making a bad guy; I am only taking responsibility. On that thought, I will also arrange a suitable restaurant for us." He skillfully changed the topic.
" Hello... I want to know if you are still open- you are...ok, you don't have to go that-... Five people... We will be there."
" See, done."
...
...
...
" We are glad to see you again, Master Samuel." Every staff was at the entrance to welco him.
" You guys... I told you not to do that, right? Chef Takayama, I am sorry to drop in suddenly." Samuel lightly shook his hand. The group was surprised to hear him speak fluent Japanese.
Hye-sun especially could see the restaurant's exterior was not extraordinary; it had nothing noteworthy, but maybe that was the beauty of it.
Zukesa, a Japanese-style restaurant that was making headway in the restaurant industry, was sothing Samuel had invested in. Takayama was a talented chef, but due to his young age, no one was willing to support him.
This was why he respected Samuel even more, it was way past their operating ti when he received the call from Samuel, but knowing that his benefactor was coming, he convinced the staff mbers with extra bonuses.
" Please, I will guide you. I am preparing sothing special for you and your companions."
The interior was spotless as everything from stools to the tables was handpicked by the chef to make it feel as holy as possible. He got behind the counter and started preparing their als in front of them.
They had nus at the table, but Samuel chose the omakase nu, aning he left the selection up to the chef. Hye-sun was curious and picked up the nu to look at the price.
" Eh?" She involuntarily exclaid; the agent was also curious and wondered why she was making a fuss.
"Mr Samuel, I think they misprinted the price." He said outright.
Samuel glanced at the nu and said with a smile," There is nothing wrong, don't worry about it."
" But-" They were referring to the omakase nu, thirty small portion dishes priced at five thousand dollars per person! They still needed to include the drinks!
Seven million wons! That's an astronomical price for a one-ti al! One had to consider an entry-level actress, Koo Hye-sun's base salary was around seventy million won in a year, and here she was eating a al worth one-tenth of her yearly wage.
" My friend here is generous; he would not charge us, right?" To his questioning, Takayama could only smile. He knew his boss liked to keep a low profile, but not charging him was out of option!
"Of course, but I want a big tip for my overworked staff!"
" Deal!" Takayama knew how generous Samuel was with his tips.
During the dinner, Samuel called soone to help with Hye-sun's case. Douglas, the party leader and a family friend, LA being under his jurisdiction ant he was the person who could move things along.
It was very late, but fortunately, Douglas was awake. Samuel told him everything about her and her experience at the airport. In the end, he also added she was his friend.
Douglas being an intelligent man, knew what he ant by it. He imdiately stated that he would order so people to solve the case within the ti limit.
After a hearty dinner, at 11 o'clock Koo Hye-sun and her agent left. They exchanged their contact information just in case sothing happened.
Samuel also dropped off the girls; fortunately, it was getting late, so he could not explain it to Rosaline's parents. He quietly returned to the family mansion in Beverly Hills.
...
...
...
A few hours later, Koo Hye-sun called and inford that the Los Angeles Police departnt had contacted her about her bag. He didn't know what Douglas did, but her purse had been found and was ready to collect.
They seed to know about this supposed theft group that specialized in stealing from foreigners at the airports. Everything from her passport and invitation letter was in her bag safe.
She once again expressed her gratitude to him, but because of her busy schedule, she could not stay longer in LA. She had to rush back to Korea tomorrow morning.
She made him promise that if he ever visited Korea, he had to contact her, and she would repay her kindness and show him around the city.
After getting his positive response, she hung up the phone. It was already two in the morning; he switched his phone to silent mode and went to bed, unaware of what would co.
