Chapter 296 Don't Miss It
In the car.
"Go and check the place out. See if there's any problem with it. I keep thinking that Sarah Shen's
invitation for lunch has some sort of malicious intent. I mean, how could she allow herself to fall into the
river without reason?"
Linda passed Nelson the card which Sarah Shen gave her just now and asked him to check the
restaurant on it.
On top of the card was the address where Sarah Shen invited them for lunch.
"All right, My Lady!" Nelson nodded. Since Nelson was also Linda and Lily's driver at the moment, to
ensure their safety, he didn't want to make the call while driving. He momentarily parked the car along
the curb and then called someone to check the restaurant.
"I also feel weird about the place. It seems like an isolated one. Only a few people go there. And how
could she suddenly appear and fall into the river near us?"
"I think it's stupid of her to fall into the river. She should have found someone else, like a servant, to do
it for her, " Linda shrugged her shoulders and shook her head. She was almost brought into tears by
her enemy's foolishness.
"Hahaha!" Lily laughed uncontrollably.
Sarah Shen went to change clothes, so Linda and the others arrived at the restaurant first.
The restaurant was called "Town of Fish".
It looked good.
A moment after Linda had stepped inside the place, somebody came over to greet her, "Are you Lady
Nalan?"
Linda was a bit surprised and then nodded.
"Lady Shen told us to wait for you here. This way, please, Lady Nalan."
It turned out that Sarah had booked the restaurant in advance. But it was strange that there was no one
else apart from Linda and her group in the restaurant. How could there be no one else here?
"Does no one usually come at noon? Why is the place so quiet?" Linda asked as she followed him
upstairs.
"Actually, Lady Shen had reserved the whole restaurant for lunch to cater to you important guests."
Linda understood and then continued up the stairs.
Sarah hadn't arrived yet, so they didn't order either. After all, it was Sarah's treat. Linda decided to wait
for Sarah to order and to see what she wanted to do.
Now, the best option for her was to adapt to how the situation would go.
"My Lady, I've asked someone to check the restaurant. There's nothing special about it. It's just a place
to eat various kinds of fish in various ways."
"There must be more to it than that!"
'Did Sarah want to poison the dishes to kill me?' Linda thought about it, but she believed that Sarah
couldn't be that stupid to do such thing.
While they were waiting for Sarah to arrive, Linda called Anna on her cellphone. She didn't know what
Sarah had up her sleeves, so she decided to be prepared.
"Anna, I want to know that is there anything that can make people fart? Preferably an edible thing that's
easy to get."
Although Anna didn't understand why Linda had asked such strange question, she still answered, "Yes,
there are a lot, such as soybeans. Having it would result in farting! Why are you asking about this?"
"Lily and I went to a botanical garden to sketch this morning. Now, guess who we ran into?"
"Who? Could it be Young Master Mu?"
"What? No, no. We ran into Sarah Shen. She fell into the river, and Nelson saved her. In order to show
her gratitude, she invited us for lunch. I don't know what she planned to do, but there should be more
than meets the eye."
"My Lady, it's not that difficult to play a prank on Sarah. If you want her to fart, I'll prescribe some
medicine for you."
"Okay, do it."
"If you're going to have lunch with her, she might have done something with the food. Be careful, My
Lady. Do you need me to come over now? Although Amy knows who I am, Sarah has not seen me
before."
Linda was pregnant, so she needed to be careful about everything. After thinking twice, she decided to
let Anna come here in case anything happened.
Anna was a doctor. If there were any problems with those dishes, she would know in a glance. Since
they wanted to see what Sarah really planned to do, they needed to let Sarah do her thing.
Sarah returned home as soon as she left the botanical garden.
After changing into clean clothes, she headed out.
On her way to the restaurant, she sneezed incessantly. She was irritated about catching a cold from
falling into river. She should have let the servant jump instead, but she feared that it was not
reasonable enough to invite Linda.
She was afraid that Haley Nalan would suspect something, so she did it by herself.
On the way to the restaurant, Sarah called Amy, "Amy, I've already gotten Haley Nalan's trust. Now I'm
going to the restaurant to treat her to lunch."
"Okay, just follow the plan. Don't be nervous, and take your time."
"Okay. Don't worry about it. It would take a month before it takes effect. They won't be able to trace
anything back to us."
"I see."
After hanging up the phone, Sarah went to the banquet.
As soon as she entered the room, Sarah apologized, "I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting for long. I
went home to change my clothes which took some time."
Linda shook her head with smile, "It's okay, Lady Shen. It's not your fault." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
"Now let's eat. The dishes here are very special. They are all fish. Lady Nalan, do you like eating fish?"
"I don't hate it."
They chatted randomly. Then, Anna also arrived.
In order to prevent Sarah from recognizing her, Anna wore a cap and a mask. Even though Sarah had
never met Anna before, perhaps Amy had previously mentioned her to Sarah.
She wore the disguise just in case.
However, Sarah really didn't know anything about Anna. She felt a little strange about her arrival, but
she didn't ask.
"We have planned to have lunch with a friend this noon. Since now we've come here to have lunch with
you, I asked her to come over. Do you mind, Lady Shen?" Linda asked with a smile.
The question put Sarah in an awkward position. How could she say no? She shook her head and said,
"I don't mind. Let's eat together. The more, the merrier."
Then Anna sat beside Linda.
Soon, the waiters began to serve the dishes, which had already been prepared because the restaurant
was only serving one table at noon that day.
Sarah was the hostess of this feast, so the servers couldn't lay the food on the table until she had
arrived.
"The specialty of this restaurant is fish. It's very delicious. I frequently visit this restaurant. Have a taste,
Lady Nalan."
