Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years-Chapter 295 Ulterior motives
Chapter 295 Ulterior motives
Savor Sanctuary Restaurant is a sensory dining establishment in New York City, where each dish is a work of art. The 20-course meal features a variety of themed dishes.
Information about each dish is displayed on the walls.
There are three types of set menus, each priced at $400 per person.
The molecular gastronomy here not only fills you up but can also leave you stuffed! 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Additionally, guests can enjoy a feast for both their eyes and ears!
What's special is that to dine at this restaurant, reservations need to be made three months in advance on the official website.
But such formalities are needless for someone with Calvin's social status.
Does Calvin Turner's beloved daughter need a reservation to dine?
William and his party entered the restaurant directly, but Walker wasn't so lucky.
He finally found Savor Sanctuary Restaurant through GPS navigation, only to be stopped by the doorman.
He thought about sneaking in using his skills but discovered the restaurant had a mid-level Soulmancer on guard. Had he not identified himself as a 13th Bureau employee, he likely would have been severely beaten.
"Andrew, are you really considering marrying into the Turner family? What will happen to her if you marry into the Turner family?"
In another hotel's Mercedes-Benz, a pale-faced man in a suit was hugging a voluptuously figured woman. Hearing the woman's complaint, he chuckled and said, "So what if I marry into the Turner family? Even if she's the Turner family's little princess, she'll still have to call you 'sister' once she's in the door, won't she?"
"But I don't want to share you with other women," the woman whined, snuggling into the man's embrace.
This Andrew laughed wickedly and replied, "Can you handle me all by yourself? I might need to find you a few sisters to share the burden."
"Stop it, you!" The woman giggled seductively, her eyes filled with flirtatious glances, almost ready to initiate an intense encounter right there in the car.
"Just wait! I'm only interested in the Turner family's wealth. I heard the Turner family recently had some issues, with Russell being ousted and now Calvin reigns supreme. And he only has that one precious daughter." Andrew, with his legs crossed, added, "Calvin wants me for a son-in-law, so I might as well oblige him, haha!"
"So later, I'll have to watch you being affectionate with another woman? I don't believe it; I'm going to drain you right now!" The woman started to make her move.
The driver was on the verge of madness. "Damn it, these two are too outrageous. Do they think I'm just air?"
William finally experienced what is known as a Private Dining or Chef's Table experience. To ordinary people, the layout here would undoubtedly seem magnificent.
As all ten guests at the table arrived, each dish served was accompanied by intense lighting and shadow effects in the room.
It made one feel like each bite was a scene from the world, whether basking in sunlight, amidst forests, or as if situated in a mythical realm.
There was a time when human dining was merely for sustenance, but now, it has become a unique form of enjoyment.
William also relished this experience, viewing it as a way to appreciate human progress.
As for the light and shadow effects, they seemed quite ordinary to him.
If he wished, he could even create an ambiance of dining amidst the vast stars.
"Next time we have a meal at home, I'll let you experience something even better," William said, sensing Alice's mood wasn't the best. After all, as her mentor, he couldn't let her be unhappy.
"Okay!" Alice, generally cheerful, felt much better after having some food here, especially after sorting out her thoughts and no longer being upset with William.
She gave William a radiant smile and even felt the urge to feed him, but thinking it over, such intimacy seemed too much, so she refrained.
As they were dining, a young man in a suit swapped seats to sit next to Alice and politely asked with a smile, "Are you Miss Turner?"
"You are…" Alice scrutinized the man in front of her, unable to recall where she had seen him before, "Do we know each other?"
"You forgot? Ten years ago, I visited your house…" the young man said with a smile, "I'm Andrew Martinez! Remember me now?"
"An… Andrew… Oh, what a coincidence! You're dining here too?" Alice couldn't really remember Andrew, but since her house often had visitors and children over, she played along, giving face to the man's claim.
"Yes, what a coincidence indeed! I didn't expect to run into Alice here." Andrew struggled to conceal his ulterior motives, finding Alice stunningly beautiful.
Compared to Alice, the women he had been with before seemed so plain and unremarkable!
If he could win over such a woman, even forsaking the Turner family's wealth would be worth it.
A coincidence?!!
Alice looked around, relieved that Walker, that guy, hadn't shown up.
"Miss Turner, do you have any plans after dinner?" Andrew, noticing Alice's distraction, patiently tried to engage with her.
"After dinner, I will go straight home." Alice clearly didn't want to engage with Andrew. It's rare for her to have a meal alone with William, why would someone else come to chat!
"How about I drive you home? It's not safe for a girl to go back alone."
Andrew completely ignored William's presence. He had observed them earlier; William, though seemingly distinguished, dressed casually and didn't display any intimate gestures towards Alice.
If Calvin had intentionally informed him of Alice dining here, his intentions were quite apparent.
He probably didn't want Alice to be involved with this young man, regardless of her feelings for him.
This might be because Calvin had his own plans.
In a prominent family like the Turners, choosing a son-in-law often requires considering the match of family background and social status.
In other words, this young man in front of them might not be on the same social level as their family, which made Andrew feel he could ignore this person even more.
"No need, someone is picking me up," Alice bluntly refused. If Andrew hadn't offered to take her home, this encounter might still have seemed accidental, but his suggestion immediately raised her guard.
Clearly, Andrew had ulterior motives.
Hesitating for a moment, Andrew finally couldn't help but reveal, "Alice, to be honest, this meeting wasn't a coincidence."
Alice slowly turned her head, her gaze turning icy, "Are you following me?"
"Miss Turner, please don't misunderstand, your father asked me to come here," Andrew tried to maintain his smile, still believing it to
be charming.
