Chapter 93: IT SCREAMED ’I’M A BOSS’"You’re here, Your High— Miss Aris!" Dorothy greeted when she saw Aristia enter the restaurant. She was holding a rag in her hand and was in the process of wiping a table. "Welcome."
Aristia noticed that a customer had just left before they arrived.
"Hello, Dorothy," she nodded in response to Dorothy’s greeting.
"Mister Owen, Miss Adeline." Dorothy nodded at Owen and Adeline who also nodded back in return. "Please, have a seat."
Aristia nodded and sat down at her usual spot by the window.
"Excuse me, your highness." Dorothy called. "I will inform Dahlia of your arrival." She turned around and headed to the kitchen.
[What a coincidence.] Aristia was surprised. Whenever she came, the two sisters were in the restaurant together.
Not long after, Dahlia came out of the kitchen behind Dorothy. She hurriedly wiped her hands on the apron of her dress and approached Aristia.
"Forgive me for meeting you in this state, your highness." She bowed. She was in the kitchen just now and there were some oil stains on her dress.
Aristia shook her head. "Have a seat." She gestured to the chairs in front of her.
Dahlia and Dorothy did as told. They waited in silence for Aristia to speak.
Aristia sat straight in her seat. She was silent for some seconds before she opened her mouth to speak.
"Did you tell your friends and acquaintances about the offer for work?" She asked.
"Yes, your highness. We did. Quite a lot of them showed interest." Dahlia replied.
"Did you also inform them of the test I told you about, to check their skills?" She continued to ask.
"Yes, but we do not know when the test will be held. They are asking questions." Dorothy replied, glancing at her sister.
Aristia hummed thoughtfully in answer. "It will be held in six days. I will reveal the location soon. Spread the news. Remember to not reveal anything about the building in the heart of the Capital and about it’s owner." She warned.
"We understand, your highness." The sisters replied simultaneously.
"Three days before the examination will be held, I will reveal the venue for the event."
Suddenly, the door to the restaurant was pushed open forcefully.
Everybody turned in surprise to see the person responsible for such action.
"Dahlia! Dorothy!" The person yelled.
It was a pretty little girl who looked to be about five years old. She had dark brown hair and eyes. She was a little chubby. She looked around the restaurant and walked towards the sisters when she spotted them.
She stopped when she noticed Aristia, Owen and Adeline.
"Excuse me, princess." Dorothy said in a whisper. Then, she got up and approached the little girl, looking around and noticing that she was alone. "Leila, what are you doing here? How many times have I told you not to come to the restaurant alone?"
"I wanted to see you. You know you and Dahlia have both been coming to the restaurant together more frequently lately." The little girl, Leila, replied.
The sisters knew that the girl was correct. Ever since they accepted the princess’s offer, the both of them had been been going to the restaurant together instead of their habit of taking turns each day, because they didn’t know when Aristia would come in
Catherine turned around and returned in the direction she had come from.
Aristia soaked in the tub and closed her eyes. The warm water enveloped her and helped in relaxing her muscles. After drying her body, she went to the dining room.
Most of the royal family members were already seated. She smiled at them and took her seats. Not long after she sat down, her grandparents, who were the only ones remaining, entered the dining room.
The couple always spent time together. Aristia wondered if she would get a little aunt or little uncle soon. It was not impossible. After all, the couple was not that old.
"Sorry for keeping everyone waiting. We were a little busy." Melvin chuckled with hidden innuendo.
"Father!" Rowaine and Catherine cried in surprise.
