A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 784 Do You Want to Marry Father?

“This is the fourth day Boss Mag has been away. I miss him so much.”

Harrison was sitting on the stairs outside Mamy Restaurant’s front door, looking up at the starry night sky with a lost expression as if all of the energy in his entire body had been sapped away.

“What are doing? It’s not like Boss Mag is dead.”

Gjerj thrust a small flagon of wine at him before taking a seat by his side and heaving a faint sigh. “But then again, I really do miss him as well.”

“You sound like a lovestruck teenage girl. I’m getting goosebumps!” Harrison scooted to the side with a disdainful look, trying to distance himself away from Gjerj.

“You don’t understand my pain. I’m not the only one in my family who misses Boss Mag; my entire family misses him! Do you know what it feels like for me to go home every day, only to have my wife and kids surround me and ask me if Boss Mag is back as soon as I walk into the door? I’m so desperate I’m even contemplating making a trip to Rodu so I can get Boss Mag to cook a Yangzhou fried rice for me to take back to my wife. She hasn’t had a good meal for days.” Gjerj’s expression was filled with concern and resignation.

Harrison patted Gjerj’s shoulder and took the lid off the flagon of wine before handing it back to Gjerj. As he did so, he wore a sympathetic look, and consoled, “It’s alright, Boss Mag will be back soon.”

“Sigh…”

Gjerj took the flagon from Harrison and took a sip before handing it back to him. He then rose to his feet and dusted himself off with a wry smile on his face. “Alright, I have to head back home now. Otherwise, the little ones are going to nag my wife again. The doctor says that she could be due for delivery in the next few days.”

Harrison’s eyes immediately lit up as he said, “Looks like I’ll have another godson soon!”

Gjerj’s expression immediately darkened upon hearing this.

“I meant goddaughter…” Harrison hurriedly corrected himself with a sheepish smile.

“It has to be a daughter this time!” Gjerj said with a determined expression before waving farewell to Harrison and climbing onto a nearby horse-drawn carriage.

Harrison looked at the departing horse-drawn carriage and scratched his head as he murmured to himself, “Judging by the ongoing trend, it’s very likely going to be another godson.”

At this moment, two excited young women came approaching from nearby, and Harrison yelled out to them, “Save your energy; Boss Mag isn’t back yet, and he won’t be back tomorrow, either.”

The smiles on the two young women’s faces gradually vanished. Looking at their resentful and disappointed expressions, Harrison was suddenly feeling a lot better, and he also departed on his own horse-drawn carriage.

…

On the balcony of Mamy Restaurant, three figures were looking up at the night sky. Due to the difference in their heights, they were like a set of Matryoshka dolls positioned next to each other.

Babla looked up at the bright moon, and asked, “Miya, when are Boss Mag and Amy going to come back?”

“Boss said he’d be back after five days, so he should be returning the day after tomorrow,” Miya replied.

“What about Big Sister Aisha? When will she be back?” Anna asked with a concerned look in her eyes.

“Aisha didn’t tell me where she was going, but she promised that she’d be back.” Miya shook her head, and she was also slightly concerned as she recalled Aisha’s grim expression before her departure. However, she could sense Anna’s concern, so she put on a smile, and said, “When Boss comes back, the restaurant will reopen, and Aisha will be back by then for sure.”

Anna nodded in response. She was still feeling rather worried, but she didn’t say anything further on this matter.

The three of them were silent for a while.

“I really want to eat kebabs.” Babla was the first one to break the silence.

Yabemiya gulped, and chimed in, “I really want to eat roujiamo.”

Anna thought to herself for a moment before whispering, “I want to eat Yangzhou fried rice.”

“Grooowl…”

Someone’s stomach suddenly began to rumble.

…

“My life has no meaning without spicy grilled fish…”

Vivian sat on the roof of the city lord’s castle with her long legs dangling down over the edge. She was supporting herself with her arms, and looking up at the night sky in a dejected manner.

“Not only did Boss Mag go to Rodu, he even took Luna away. What am I supposed to do?”

Vivian sighed in a display of sheer and utter boredom.

“They’ll be back the day after tomorrow. Boss Mag received the best dish award today.” An amused voice sounded from down below.

Vivian looked down to discover City Lord Michael standing down below with his hands clasped behind his back and a smile on his face.

“Really? Is Boss Mag that amazing?” Vivian jumped down from the roof as she stared at Michael with incredulity in her eyes. She had attended royal banquets at the Roth Empire in the past, and she could still clearly recall the grand palace filled with countless tables and chairs, with all types of delicious food piled onto those tables.

She didn’t know how many chefs would be required to cook so many dishes; it was incredible that Mag had managed to stand out among these countless chefs, securing the best dish award for himself in the end.

“But doesn’t that mean Boss Mag is going to stay in Rodu now?” A thought suddenly occurred to Vivian as a concerned look appeared on her face. If Boss Mag were to remain in Rodu, then she wouldn’t get to eat spicy grilled fish ever again.

Her symptoms had been completely suppressed from her regular consumption of spicy grilled fish, and even though she hadn’t had the dish for a few days, those symptoms showed no signs of returning. According to the doctor, the root cause of her condition had almost been remedied, and as long as she continued to eat spicy grilled fish, she would eventually be completely cured.

Of course, even if that day did arrive, Vivian wouldn’t be able to give up on spicy grilled fish anyway, as it was simply far too delicious and addictive!

Michael shook his head with a smile, and said, “Don’t worry, Boss Mag rejected the king’s offer to remain in Rodu, and Principal Novan will bring him back in person. Boss Mag is a man of many talents, and I would be sorely remiss to see him go.”

“Good.” Vivian was very relieved to hear this.

…

“Young Mistress, due to the recent influx of extra tailors, all of the custom-made dresses are almost ready. Only the finishing touches need to be applied, and the other styles of dresses are also being produced at a rate that’s faster than anticipated. I believe we should increase the number of orders we take for the custom-made dresses.”

Even at this time at night, the Blue Suede clothing store was still brightly lit, and Mars wore an excited expression as he stood before Gloria’s desk.

“No, the number of orders can’t be changed, but we have to ensure that we produce dresses of the absolute finest quality we’re capable of.” Gloria contemplated the suggestion for a moment before shaking her head as she said, “However, if some of the tailors have extra time on their hands, they can increase the rate of production on the other two styles of dresses.”

“Alright.” Mars nodded with a smile before exiting the office. The young mistress that he was serving was well on her way to becoming a successful businesswoman.

“Mr. Mag is going to be back in two days; perhaps I can go to him and ask him some questions… I’ll finally be able to see him again soon.” A faint blush appeared on Gloria’s face as she strode over to her window.

…

As soon as Irina finished her slice of cake, Amy looked up at her with an expectant gaze, and asked, “Big Sister Irina, after eating this cake, do you want to marry Father?”
