Chapter 45 Thankful The Freezer Broke

A big round table was set in the middle of the garden. There was a five-tier elegant wedding cake in the middle surrounded by other pastries and give-away items.

There was a long table for the newlywed couple. There were ten round tables covered with red cloths with ten chairs surrounding for the guests to sit on. No flowers but only plates, silverware, and gla.s.ses were placed on top. This made the guests looked down on the caterer momentarily.

After the wedding, all the people went to the reception area. As the newlywed couple came in, everyone stood up and salute them with a big round of applause. Then the waiters and waitresses came in bringing food after food on every table.

The centerpiece on every table, most of all, for the newlywed, was the inviting and mouth-watering Beauty's Chicken Entangled (the procedure in Chapter 8).

It was placed in a stylish chafing dish with the stainless inverted holder for the two chickens to look standing, and a pool of orange sauce simmering under the bird's feet. The whole thing was surrounded with an edible water lily on a platter. The nice additional of the water lily was Chef Jim's idea. Fortunately, the resort had a manmade pond with it. Everyone was delighted seeing such a unique design and recipe.

Besides the chickens, was also the 5 Minute Beef Tenderloin Steaks cut into very thin succulent s.h.i.+ny red tender pieces that were arranged to look like a big red heart over a fan-shaped interlacing lettuce leaves.

"Wow, this beef steak is so tender, like it melts in my mouth. Juicy too." The bride couldn't help herself but said those words while red s.h.i.+mmering sauce clung on her lips. Her tongue had no choice but to wipe the sauce to clean her lips. This scene invited the groom to steal her a kiss right away. Now both of their lips were smeared and saucy. They heartily laughed seeing each other like this.

The people saw the saucy stolen kiss. Clinking gla.s.ses were heard afterward telling the couple to kiss again.

More food came. Ten big Chili Garlic b.u.t.tery Prawns were cut into halves. They were arranged to form like number eight, signifying infinity. Green Salad was placed within the infinity symbol.

A big oval platter was served with steaming Seafood Paella with a big grilled fish head at one end of the plate and the tail at its opposite end. From afar, a yellow Koi was formed.

Then there were three varieties of sus.h.i.+ that was arranged on top of the other like a pyramid. One kind and one color in every plate. It was really a feast for the eyes.

Ten triangular slices of Crunchy Outside Tender Inside Fish Fillets were placed diagonally on top of the other to form a long line with yellow spicy cheesy sauce on top.

Every dish described were served on each table. Of course, the whole 'lechon' was also there. It was placed at the side but this time it was not the limelight.

After eating, the people thought there was nothing more aside from the cake waiting for the couple to slice. Yet, big cold watermelons shaped into baskets full with a variety of fruit chunks were served.

Then more servers followed carrying mini shot gla.s.ses with something colorful inside. Each guest got three with three kinds of colors inside.

"What have we got here?" asked a man to a server.

"They're desserts, Sir." He continued to name and explain each. "Enjoy."

All the guests were in awe and satisfied with such special presentation of food that was not commonly seen in wedding receptions. Special and unique delicacies as what the groom described the whole display.

Seeing this spectacle in front of their very eyes, the newlywed couple was thankful that the freezer broke.

But there were two people who were not happy.

"Cathy, you have to compensate me. I'm physically in pain right now," said the hired guy Luis talking to the other person with his phone.

"Why would I? You're a man but that girl caught you on the act. I thought you're a professional?"

"Watch your mouth or you'll face my wrath. I might visit you anytime… it was just out of carelessness. I never thought that girl would be awake that late."

"Then that's it. No need to talk."

"By the way, I sabotaged their business but t'was foiled. I sabotage a wedding,"

"What wedding are you talking about? Clarence and that girl got married?"

"Nope, I said business."

"I told you not to touch Clarence, his business as well. I only want you to make that girl suffer. You should have tried to attack when you're sure she's fast asleep or when she's alone."

"How can I go near that girl when your guy kept on holding her as if afraid to let go."

"What? That beguiling witch might have hypnotized him."

"Whatever, I don't wanna work with you from now on." He hung up.

Cathy was so furious and threw the phone away.

At a hideout. "Boss, what are we going to do with this meat?"

"We won't receive a pay so just sell them and save some for our food. It's really a mess working with that girl."

. . . . .

Clyde and Claire heard of the commotion at the restaurant but chose to be uninvolved. They left the youngsters to do the problem solving expecting a good outcome. The result was more than satisfying. It was the talk of the town for weeks in that small area where the resort located.

As expected of the explosive success, the news was sent far and wide; through facebook, twitter or any online schemes. News traveling through word of mouth was the most effective. The result, the resort was fully booked with weddings that were scheduled for the rest of the year. Even a golden wedding was in the queue.

. . . . .

The day of the regional trials was approaching fast. Beauty was still accompanying the guys in their missions. She got her pay as well. Of course, Clarence was the one insistent of her staying with him until a week before the day. It was expected of them to be temporarily separated while the trials were on-going in different regions. Beauty also felt the same way. They would miss each other even being apart for a while.

At this moment, Your Romeo became a not so important existence in her life for she already had her boyfriend to share her heart with. For her, she must give more significance to Clarence for he was her lover while the other was just an anonymous to whom she was only thankful.

On the other hand, Clarence never dared to write her an email as Your Romeo anymore to make this alias die a normal death, being forgotten, he thought.
