«Look, your ex is here collecting scraps,» spotting his former wife in the restaurant, Kyle and his mistress hurried over to mock her, but when she turned around, they FROZE IN SHOCK…
I’ll briefly tell your story. It should work. Out of solidarity, she’ll take you,» Olivia winked at her friend and smiled. A year passed.
Kyle married a new victim, who did get pregnant and was currently in a maternity resort. And he meanwhile continued to have fun with his mistress and was having dinner in a restaurant. They had already dined and were about to leave when suddenly Anna saw a girl at the end of the hall who looked like Sarah.
«Darling, look, isn’t that your ex?» Kyle turned around and smiled. «Looks like it. But what could she be doing here? This is too expensive a place for her.»
«Probably came to collect leftovers from tables after the rich. You left her without a penny. And with her education, prospects are few,» Anna laughed, who barely finished high school…
«Let’s go say hi, ask how things are. She’s our former family member?» They both laughed and confidently went toward the girl. It was indeed Sarah.
They didn’t even notice how she was dressed, and approaching, immediately started mocking. «Hi, dear,» Anna said smiling. «I told you, take at least a couple hundred, and now you have to collect food in restaurants so as not to starve to death.»
Sarah looked at them and was silent, only slightly smiling with the corner of her lips. «How are you?» Kyle asked in a calmer tone. «Didn’t manage to marry again?» «Thanks, everything’s fine with me,» Sarah replied absolutely kindly.
«And how about you? Found a new egg donor for your childless girlfriend?» Anna changed her face but was silent. Kyle looked closely at Sarah. «You’ve changed, become prickly and sarcastic.
Everything flows, everything changes, it’s normal, life doesn’t stand still,» Sarah noted philosophically. At that moment, a girl-waitress approached them and addressed Sarah. «Ms. Sarah, they’re asking for you there, can you come?» «Yes, Katie, I’m coming.»
«Met old acquaintances?» Sarah replied smiling and turning her whole body to the stunned Kyle, added. «Sorry, business, have a nice evening.» Ms. Sarah didn’t believe Kyle.
«And what’s going on here?» Anna and Kyle looked at each other with surprised eyes. «Do you understand anything?» he asked his companion. «No,» Anna said honestly.
«Wait, we’ll ask the waitress now.» They found Katie, who called Sarah, and asked. «Excuse me, who is Ms. Sarah?» «That’s the owner of our restaurant,» the waitress smiled kindly.
«A very good girl, smart, despite such a young age for this business.» «Owner of this restaurant?» Kyle didn’t believe. «Yes, she bought it recently.
Sorry, I need to go, customers are waiting. All the best, come again.» Katie left, and Kyle with Anna remained standing in the middle of the hall.
They seemed frozen and just looked at each other. Kyle even had a thought that maybe he shouldn’t have divorced Sarah, since she’s so successful. But remembering the impossibility of having joint children, he immediately drove that thought away.
«Can you imagine, she’s the owner of the restaurant,» Anna was indignant. «Backwoods hick.» «She’s not a stupid girl actually, unlike some,» Kyle said angrily.
And looked angrily at his companion too. She immediately fell silent. A small excursion into the past.
Sarah’s life improved in a completely unexpected way. After she returned to Olivia and to work, literally a month later, her godmother came from Germany. She found her goddaughter in the big city, asked for forgiveness for not coming for so long.
«Sarah, baby, forgive me, please, I’m guilty before you, but business takes all my time,» the godmother apologized. «And what business do you have?» Sarah asked. «What do you do?» «I have a whole chain of restaurants…
I want to open a few more in the US, with German cuisine.» «Cool, I like that direction too.» And Sarah told how she came to apply and didn’t get in, how she unsuccessfully married and ended up on the street.
She loved her godmother and missed her. The godmother had no children of her own, so when she visited them, she spent a lot of time with Sarah. «So I have a genius idea,» the godmother said.
«Since I was a bad godmother for a long time and didn’t congratulate you on holidays, you’ll choose any restaurant you like, and I’ll give it to you. Deal?» «How give?» Sarah didn’t understand. «Well, like usually give gifts, simply and from the heart, and no objections, dreams must come true.
Besides, remember the fairy tale about Cinderella, who fulfilled wishes there? Right, the fairy godmother. Well, I’m your godmother too and can afford to fulfill your cherished wish.» «I don’t even know what to say, it’s too expensive a gift,» Sarah tried to object.
«So, better not argue with me, especially when I’ve decided everything,» she winked at her goddaughter. «But I don’t understand anything about this, especially on such a scale as managing a whole restaurant,» Sarah still tried to object. «Well, hello.
And why do you have me? I’ll help at first. I’ll send you a good manager, he’ll back you up while you learn. You need to get an education for sure.
Most convenient is part-time study, without leaving work, so to speak,» the godmother winked. «I’m really not sure I’ll succeed.» «You’ll succeed, I’m sure,» the godmother said.
Choosing the restaurant and all the paperwork took about two months. And now Sarah was the owner of a chic restaurant in the city center. And as her deputy, she appointed, of course, Olivia.
The friends worked together again and lived together, for now in a rented apartment, but already of a completely different level.
