Chapter 1487: Chapter 1487: Forever Forbidden to Enter Chapter 1487: Chapter 1487: Forever Forbidden to Enter Madam Powell thought back to the scene from that day when Quinn had a bad dream. Quinn woke up soaked with sweat and crying loudly, saying she dreamed about a sister coming to her home. This woman accused Quinn of stealing the fragrance formulas, but Quinn insisted that she had written those by staying up all night while she was sick.
Madam Powell had always doted on Quinn because she believed Quinn was her lucky star, someone who could bring good fortune to the Powell family. She had kept this incident to herself and didn’t tell Mr. Robert Powell about it, fearing that he might overthink and believe that Quinn was intentionally targeting Xaviera.
“Maybe I misunderstood.” Madam Powell replied perfunctorily when she saw that Mr. Robert Powell was unaware of the situation.
“Yes! Xaviera is very understanding. She would never slander Quinn! Even if such a thing were to happen, I would not let Quinn suffer any unjust.” Mr. Powell quickly explained and then carefully asked, “Mother, after Quinn wins her crown and the perfume is launched, could we invite Xaviera to have a meal together? The family gathering would be more lively. Xaviera could see Quinn being so excellent and would take Quinn as her role model.”
Without responding, Madam Powell let the car slowly pull up to Fragrant House. “Mother, this is Fragrant House, a famous restaurant in Libanan,” Mr. Powell introduced.
As Mr. Powell was helping Madam Powell out of the car, the smiling greeter at the entrance suddenly faltered and then walked up to ask: “Are you Mr. Robert Powell and Ms. Cora Gar?”
“Yes.” Mr. Powell replied somewhat in a daze, unsure why they were being asked their names.
When Madam Powell heard the greeter mentioning their names, she guessed that the owner of Fragrant House must have known that they were nobles from Yittaland, so she arranged for the waiter to give them special service. She nodded proudly, “Yes, I am Cora Gar. What is it?”
The greeter, upon hearing their confirmation, slightly bent over in apology, “I’m sorry, Mr. Powell, Madam Powell, Fragrant House does not receive you and also prohibits you from entering permanently.”
The crowd outside Fragrant House turned their gaze to the two. Fragrant House is considered one among the top restaurants in Libanan. It has a beautiful environment and expensive prices. It is elegant, not too crowded, catering to only sixty tables a day. Albert Sullivan owns many businesses, and initially, he only opened this restaurant to give friends and relatives a safe place to dine. Unexpectedly, this place somehow became popular, and even the upper class of Libanan consider eating at Fragrant House a symbol of status.
It was not unusual for Fragrant House to refuse customers. Once the daily limit of sixty tables was reached, the greeter would inform customers waiting outside. They would apologize courteously and even offer a small gift to the refused customer. However, today they directly told the two guests that they were permanently prohibited from entering.
Usually, businesses thrive on the principle that the customer is king. Also, Albert Sullivan was always known for his gentleness towards anyone, so why would he publicly expel customers?
Everyone thought about it carefully. After all, Mr. Sullivan had been doing business for so many years and certainly understood the importance of service. The only plausible explanation was that these two people had committed some serious offense, for which the usually courteous Fragrant House staff had to expel them publicly.
The curious gazes of the people around fell on Mr. Powell and Madam Powell. Everyone who dined at Fragrant House was a significant figure in Libanan who had excellent manners, so they quickly looked away after a glance. But Mr. Powell still felt quite uncomfortable.
Madam Powell finally came back to her senses. Her face was ashen. She was married into the Powell family at the age of eighteen and was respected as a Countess. Life had treated her smoothly, and nobody had ever dared to offend her. Now, she was refused entry to a restaurant, and they even declared a permanent ban on them?
Suppressing his anger, Mr. Powell frowned and asked, “Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake? This is our first time here at Fragrant House. Why won’t you let us in?”
He had been in Libanan for only a short while and it was his first time at Fragrant House. There was no reason for them to refuse him!
The young man in the front bowed respectfully and answered, “I’m sorry, Mr. Powell. This is our boss’s decision. We don’t know the reason. Maybe you could think if you have offended anyone?”
Offended?
Mr. Powell felt more and more embarrassed. He had not been in Libanan for long and didn’t know many people, but he was always cordial to everyone. How could he have offended someone?
Seeing the passersby looking at them, Mr. Powell’s face grew red. He assisted Madam Powell to one side and said helplessly, “Mother, I don’t even know the owner of Fragrant House, and I absolutely did not offend him. Could it be that Jacob just arrived and somehow offended someone’s interests?”
