Chapter41
Megan looked up and asked Erwina, “Sis, if you host the restaurant opening, will brother–in–law come that day?”
Erwina looked up at her.
His Majesty and the Empress definitely weren’t coming.
Gustav was also royalty and a Top Commander, but he was Erwina’s husband.
Until now, everyone thought there must have been something else going on with Erwina and Commander Mullen’s marriage.
Megan didn’t believe for a second that the God of War of the Empire would fall in love with Erwina, that sickly girl!
So she put on a smile and said innocently, “My brother–in–law will definitely come, right? After all, it’s my sister hosting the opening ceremony. Even if he doesn’t have time to show up in person, he’ll at least send a projection, won’t he?”
Erwina was confused: “Megan, how come I noticed you were only interested in your brother–in–law?”
The fake smile on Megan’s face was about to crack again.
It was Ethan next to me who said, “Meg was also doing it for the good of the restaurant. If the commander had time, then let’s trouble him a bit. That would be better for the Schrader Restaurant.”
Erwina looked calm and said, “I’ll ask him if he’s free.”

Ethan nodded and didn’t say anything else.
And Megan, who thought she had found trouble for Erwina, left with Devin feeling satisfied, and Ethan went off to do other things too.
Erwina walked over to Sir Schrader, poured him some tea, and looked really calm and composed.
Derrick said, “Wina, the people who gave you trouble would make you better.”
Erwina smiled, “Grandpa, I get it. But when I really got strong, they could just go rest in the corner, right?”
Derrick saw the ambition in his granddaughter’s eyes..
He nodded, “Your dad could retire by then.”
Erwina laughed, “Grandpa, I will try my best.”
Derrick was actually pretty satisfied with his son, otherwise he wouldn’t have let him run the Schrader Restaurant for so many years.
But these past years, Ethan had been purposely mentoring Megan, which annoyed Derrick, and before, when Wina was sick and in a coma, he just let it go.
But now Wina was healthy, so why was Ethan always thinking about that adopted daughter?
Sir Schrader sighed and said, “If your dad messed up emotionally, I can’t do anything about it, but as for who calls the shots at the Schrader Restaurant, it’s not his turn yet.”
Of course, Sir Schrader was a very cautious man. He had to test if his granddaughter really had this ability.
And the branch in District I was a touchstone.
Derrick took a sip of tea and said slowly, “If it turns out you’re not more capable than Megan, then I can’t help you, Wina. I can’t let the Schrader Restaurant go out of business. Can you understand what Grandpa means?”
Erwina nodded obediently, “Grandpa, I understood everything, don’t worry.”
Megan thought that after all her scheming and winning over so many people, she could get the Schrader Restaurant?
No way!
As for her parents‘ relationship, Erwina made up her mind–no matter what her mom decided, she would totally support her with all her heart!
Erwina quickly got to know everything about the branch, and also checked the restaurant’s sales online, plus the taste preferences of people living in District I.
When she went to the kitchen, she saw Devin teaching Megan how to stir–fry shredded potatoes..
Potatoes were a tough plant. Because they made people feel full and could be cooked into all kinds of tasty food, they were really loved by the residents of the United Empire of Planets.
Megan got the basics of cooking, but because she didn’t control the heat well, she made the shredded potatoes all mushy.
Megan was a bit upset and said quietly, “I didn’t cook it well.”
“It’s okay, it was already pretty good. You needed to practice more on the heat. Anyway, you could cook, and that was already better than Wina.”

Hearing Devin’s praise, Megan got happy again.
Erwina gave a little laugh and turned to leave.
Blind confidence, it was really scary.

She was busy for two whole hours before she finally went through all the materials.
But there was still one District I resident taste survey that hadn’t come out yet, so we couldn’t be sure about the final menu for opening day.
For pricing, we also had to refer to the prices at other branches. Of course, the main thing was to look at the spending habits of people living in District I.
There were the royal family, the military district, and all the big nobles. here.
The price was high, but the expectations were higher!
While Erwina was busy with the opening, Gustav finished his military duties and went back to his cold, empty mansion.
