Chapter 1077
Elaine was dumbfounded by his successive questions, and only after a long time did she open her mouth to speak: "No ......"
Darnell said, "Now you can start getting ready."
Elaine thought he had a point and nodded heavily.
Want to open quickly, leaving her with little time indeed.
When she got back to her room, Elaine sat down at the coffee table and started planning. The rent she paid today had already cost her half of her part-time job at Switzerland and her scholarship, and the rest of the renovations and equipment she had to buy were not enough.
As she was thinking about it, Darnell came out of the shower and sat down on the couch behind her, glancing at the list in front of her, "Do you need an investment."
Elaine heard him and turned back, "That won't work, what if I drive it down and you don't get your money back."
Darnell said, "I thought that you were well prepared before you planned to open this sweet store."
Elaine slowly retracted her eyes, her gaze fell on the list in front of her, and said somewhat melancholy: "Although it is so ...... but I am after all the first time to do something independently by myself, always afraid that it will not be done well."
So this dessert store, from beginning to end, she only intended to use her part-time job and scholarship money.
Because the money, which she had worked so hard to earn.
Sort of a trial-and-error cost.
If she closes down because of losses, it will be a profound lesson, warning her not to think of opening a business as simple.
If she is lucky, she can earn a little money, then she will also be very accomplished.
But for now, there really isn't enough money ......
Elaine didn't know what to think, but she turned around again and looked up at Darnell, her eyes blinking, "Or else, you can lend me some."
Darnell met her wet eyes, raised his eyebrows unnoticed, slid the knot in his throat, and spoke slowly: "If you lose, how do you plan to pay back."
Elaine plopped down on his lap and raised her hand and swore, "If I lose money, I'll make you dessert for the rest of my life, with absolutely, positively no charge."
Darnell took her by the waist and lifted her up so she was sitting on his lap, his tone low: "In that case, then I don't seem to be getting my money back."
Elaine sighs and drops her head in some frustration.
It is also true that her way of repaying the debt is more or less a bit of a cheating element in it.
Just when she was at a loss, Darnell said, "I can get you someone to get the raw materials and machinery at cost price, which will not exceed your budget, need it. Out of exchange, after you open the store, if they go to eat, you can only charge the cost price."
Elaine: "!"
She jerked her head up and agreed without thinking, "Yes!"
Darnell smiled and rubbed her head, "It's settled, go to bed."
Elaine answered, got off his lap, and jumped into the bathroom, her back all revealing a leap of faith.
When the bathroom door was closed, Darnell picked up the list on the coffee table and looked at it.
She did plan well and listed each item in great detail.
She should, for a long time, be prepared.
......
Soon, Elaine followed her own plan, discussed and communicated with the decoration company, and decorated the sweet store step by step to make it look the way she wanted.
Every day she will go to the store to see the progress, and then is at home to develop desserts, busy.
When Archer came, he saw her busy in the kitchen, immersed and involved, next to a dozen desserts, and could not help but lean against the wall and say, "If you don't know, you think you stay here all day to study some new weapon."
Elaine looked up at the sound of the voice, surprised and amazed: "Cousin!"
Archer pulled out the chair in front of the dining table and sat down: "You also know that I am your cousin it is almost a month since I came back, and I did not say to come and say hello to my cousin."
Elaine removed her gloves and brought two desserts in front of him, with some regret: "I was going to invite you and Natasha to come over together when the dessert store opened, but I didn't expect you to find out now ...... you quickly taste, how does it taste? " NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Archer picked up the spoon and took a taste, going from a scattered look at first to a serious face later on, "Did you really make this?"
Elaine raised her chin: "That's for sure, if you like it, you can come to the store every day from now on, but you have to charge for it."
Archer: "......"
The grid is small.
Elaine added: "But since you're my cousin, I can give you a 10% discount."
Archer finished the rest of the bowl in two bites and spoke quietly: "Seeing your generous tone, I thought you were going to give me the store."
"That won't work, I've spent all my savings opening this store."
Archer found it unbelievable: "You have so much pocket money, and this is spent? And your father left you ...... so much money left to you."
Elaine said, "That's different. I earned this money myself and have been saving it for two years."
Archer's eyes fell on the pieces in the trash can, silent before speaking: "That indeed, you break a plate with your hands, are enough to open a store."
Elaine: "......"
She argued, "This dinner plate belongs to Darnell's family, and it's not mine."
Archer said slowly: "You come less, who does not know that you used to shop, hate to move the whole store home."
"That ...... that's not the same either ......"
After the two broke up a few words, Archer looked up at the table, "Give me another one."
The smile on Elaine's face widened and she got up to get it for him: "Feel free to eat today, you won't be charged for it."
Re-entering the kitchen, Elaine looked at Archer outside and thought better of it, but fished out her phone and sent a message to Natasha, asking her to come out to meet her tomorrow.
Putting down her phone, Elaine chatted casually, "Cousin, do you believe in paranormal phenomena."
Archer almost choked on a mouthful and slowed down before saying, "How did you become strange and paranormal when you came back this time?"
"No, I really think it's amazing, aren't you a doctor, you should be able to explain all this."
"I'm a doctor, not a magician."
Elaine: "......"
She said, "I'm serious, that day when I was in the cemetery, it seems ...... no, I should say it is very clear to hear my father called me, and we two also spoke, or the kind of conversation with questions and answers."
Elaine wrinkled her brow and said, "I've been dreaming about it for the past few days and just thought ......"
"Did you ask Darnell."
"Asked, I guess, he didn't answer much, I guess he thought it couldn't happen."
Archer simply posed, "So did I think this could happen."
Elaine nodded seriously, "Because I think that our ideas and understanding are almost on the same level."
Archer: "?"
Is she complimenting Darnell, or is she calling him out?
