Second Chances

“Eat quickly. Otherwise, it won’t taste good later,” Emma murmured. 

Liam’s breathing was heavy. He looked at Emma affectionately. 

After a long time, Liam calmed down. He could not forsake the delicacies Emma had specially made. He elegantly cut his food with a knife and fork. The moment the juicy, tender, and chewy meat entered his mouth, the sour, slightly spicy, and fragrant juice exploded in his mouth. It was fresh and perfectly spiced. 

Liam had only eaten such a rich delicacy in a top–notch Michelin restaurant in Antgem. Emma’s culinary skills were the best. 

Liam was deeply jealous. “Who else did you cook for?” 

Eating Emma’s delicacies made people fall in love with her too easily. Her food seemed to have magic. It seemed tailor–made for each person, and it would take over their hearts. 

Emma rarely saw Liam look so satisfied because of food. “It’s good that you like it. I’ll make it for you often in the future.” She made a kissing gesture. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

But Emma’s coquettishness was ineffective. Liam held Emma’s hand, still serious hotel internship end?” 

Emma did some calculations. “It’s over this Friday. Why?” 

“When will the 

“You can’t cook anything for anyone else.” Liam added solemnly, “Especially Aiden.” Whoever ate the food made by Emma, especially men, would fall in love with her too easily. He would never allow such “privileges” to be enjoyed by another man. 

Emma smiled and said, “Alright, I promise you.” 

However, after returning to the hotel, Aiden still asked Emma to cook every day. He was willing to pay ten times that of an ordinary five–star hotel. However, Emma had already promised Liam she would not cook for another man. 

Hence, Emma personally watched as others cooked. She taught the chefs and assistants the skills and ideas and shared her recipes. Aiden was extremely satisfied after eating a week of Emma–guided delicacies. Then one day, he heard that Emma’s internship had ended and she had left. 

After Emma left, Aiden thought he would have to eat disgusting food again. Unexpectedly, Emma had already nurtured the entire kitchen to perfection. Even without her around, it would still exceed Liam’s expectations.

When the internship ended, not long after Emma returned to Vark College, the school received a call from the hotel and the Global Hotel Association. They specifically praised Emma for being a rare outstanding young woman who knew life and had strong skills. 

Only then did Emma know that Aiden was actually from the royal family of a certain country. Not only that, he was an extremely low–key artist himself. Moreover, he was also a senior Michelin judge. 

This time, Emma relied on her strength to make the entire hotel’s catering department famous. The hotel praised her highly and gave Vark College an extremely favorable sponsorship and cooperation. The school commended Emma for her experience. 

Now, the entire school knew Emma’s culinary skills could even conquer a Michelin judge. 

The students became gluttons. 

One of them asked, “Emma, I’ll help you do your homework for a semester. Can you make something for me to eat?” 

Another tried, “That’s right. I’ll buy you drinks for three years. I really want to try your cooking.” 

Emma looked at that person teasingly. “What about cup noodles?” 

The person replied, “Cup noodles… That’s fine too. You’re a chef. Your cup noodles must be better than other’s.” 

Emma burst out laughing. This person was such a sweet–talker. Although Liam did not allow her to make food for others, she should be able to make some barbecue when she had the chance to gather with her classmates. 

Emma said, “We’ll go to the B–Hut next time. I’ll cook barbecue for you.” 

“Wow. That’s great. We finally have food to eat,” the person cheered. 

“I’m so touched. Long live Miss Wilson,” another added. 

The class erupted in cheers. 

Soon, it reached the ears of the other classes in the corridor. 

They also wanted to try Emma’s cooking, especially the people from the second class who were eavesdropping. Since Alva’s incident, the two classes had completely fallen out. 

Usually, when they saw Emma, the people from the second class would often take a detour. They were too embarrassed to ask her for food. The corners of everyone’s mouths were about to drip with 

“tears“. 

“Damn it, if I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have offended her last time. My Michelin barbecue…” one of them remarked, 

“I was starving when I listened to the school’s broadcast this morning, Let’s go to Emma’s place to eat secretly,” another commented, 

After school, Emma walked to the school gate. Usually, if Liam was not busy, he would pick her up from school. Today, she saw not Liam’s Mercedes, but the business car that Levi usually drove. 

Emma walked forward. Levi respectfully got out of the car. “Madam, Mr. Hall asked me to bring you to the company. There are a few important project investments today. He wants to hear your opinion.” “My opinion?” Emma was slightly surprised. Other than the hacker crisis last time, she had never interfered in Liam’s work. She wondered if Liam was silently treating her as the “best buddy” he could 

trust. 

Emma nodded. “Alright, let’s go now.” 

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the headquarters of the Halls Group. 

When Emma entered the board meeting, she was still carrying her school bág. Before she walked in, she could feel the tension inside through the glass door. 

When Emma entered, the shareholders frowned. 

“Mr. Hall, what are you doing?” one of them asked. 

“That’s right. This is the board meeting of the Halls Group. Why did you call her here?” another questioned. 

Liam was wearing a black suit and sat in the high–class black leather chair. It was the chairman’s seat. Beside him was a distinctive, slightly smaller white leather chair. The seat had been empty since the board meeting. It was obvious that this special leather chair was reserved for Emma. 

Liam said, “Emma is a rare investment genius with a keen eye. I asked her to come here to provide advice for everyone.” 

When the others heard Liam say Emma was a genius, they immediately panicked. 

“She’s a girl who hasn’t even graduated from university. Firstly, she’s not a shareholder, and secondly, she’s not an employee of our company. How dare you let her sit in the second–highest position at the board meeting? Mr. Hall, you’re going too far,” one of them stated.. 

As the other shareholders were also complaining. 

Emma glanced around and swaggered over. She threw her bag onto the chair. She said calmly, “Mr. Hall said he called me here to hear my thoughts and give everyone advice. If you’re so confident in your abilities, why do you care so much about a little girl like me sitting here?” 

One of the shareholders gritted his teeth and said, “You’re just an abandoned daughter from a small family. How dare you show off in front of us…” 

Emma’s smile grew. “I’m not showing off.” She looked at that person coldly. “However, since you have spoken, if your strength is not comparable to an abandoned daughter from a small family, wouldn’t it be extremely embarrassing, Mr. Ames?”
