After a short self-introduction, Irina got to know the maidens in the restaurant with the name "Caroline".
After everyone got over their shock of Mag getting back his wife and Amy getting back her mother, they were happy for them.
After all, be it her beautiful looks, or her powerful strength, Miss Caroline was a strong woman. It was hard to pick out any issues with her.
After calming down his emotions, Mag said to Irina, "You shouldn't have eaten yet, right? Do you want to eat with us?"
"Sure." Irina looked at the table full of dishes and said with gratification, "Your culinary skills seemed to have improved again after not seeing you for three years."
"I pull my sword out faster when I don't have my woman around," Mag calmly replied, "So, my culinary skills naturally improve."
"That's good, but it's tough for your hand," Irina said with heartache for him.
Everyone: "…?"
They couldn't understand what they were talking about.
The meal was a little confusing. The new lady boss seemed to settle in very quickly. After getting to know Amy briefly, the mother-and-daughter duo started to eat again. They didn't look like they had just reunited after a long separation.
"Did something hold you up previously? Why didn't you return to the restaurant for such a long time?" Firis asked gingerly.
She had always felt sorry for Little Amy. The little one was brought up by her father and had never enjoyed a day of love from her mother.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow that Amy's mother had returned, even though she didn't have the right to ask, she couldn't help asking.
"Haven't you always…" Irina replied instinctively.
Mag quickly interrupted and said in a grave voice, "Regarding this matter, you indeed owe Amy an explanation."
Irina choked on her words as she glanced at Firis. She was almost led astray by Bean Sprout. She said with a self-reproaching expression, "It's hard to explain what happened in the past three years ago. I was trapped in a place and finally escaped a few days ago, then I came to Chaos City immediately."
Irina looked at Amy and seriously said, "Little Amy, Mother is sorry for all this."
"It's fine. I have already forgiven you." Amy waved her greasy hands nonchalantly and continued to munch on her chicken wings.
The maidens liked Caroline even more now. Although they didn't know what she had gone through, her love for Amy was real. Her eyes were full of indulgence for Amy.
Kiddo ran over to Caroline, looked up at her and asked, "You are Big Sister Amy's mother. I am Big Sister Amy's father's daughter. So, how should I address you?"
"Kiddo…" Gina bit her lower lips. She didn't know how to get the child not to ask this question, so she could only look at Caroline nervously.
This was Boss' white lie to Kiddo, but to Caroline, it should be hurtful.
"Kiddo, you're so well-behaved, so naturally you have to call me Senior Mom," Irina said matter-of-factly. However, after thinking about it, Irina shook her head and said, "Oh no. Senior Mom sounds horrible. You will call me… Auntie Caroline then."
As she said this, Irina turned to look at Gina and smilingly said, "What do you think about that, Younger Sister Gina?"
"Yes. If you think that's appropriate, Kiddo will call you that." Gina nodded and smiled.
Caroline's surprisingly magnanimity made Gina feel embarrassed instead. She could explain to Caroline when Kiddo wasn't around later.
"Auntie Caroline, you're so beautiful." Kiddo looked at Irina with a glow in her big eyes. "Just like the fairies in the heavens."
"You have such a sweet mouth, little one." Irina pinched her chubby face with a smile.
Kiddo returned to Gina happily and continued eating.
Irina ate a piece of red braised pork before suddenly turning to Mag and aggrievedly asking, "You pursued me with your culinary skills back then. Now that your culinary skills have improved, you must have enchanted many innocent young maidens, right?"
Everyone at the dining table began to look weird and awkward instantly. Some of them looked down guiltily, while others were thoughtful. So, Mag had won over this 10th-tier great magic caster, elven magic caster, with his culinary skills.
Regarding that, all of them didn't find it hard to accept.
Other than Mag's nice character, they stay at Mamy Restaurant naturally because of the strong attraction to the scrumptious food.
This was a temptation that even a powerhouse couldn't resist.
"Eat more if you like it." Mag gave her two more pieces of red braised pork. She was caught up in her act and couldn't even stop herself.
The lunch ended in a cordial atmosphere. The maidens accepted the lady boss, who appeared out of nowhere, rather readily. At least, it seemed right to do so at that moment.
Mag nodded inwardly. Given Irina's character, it wasn't easy for her to do this.
Mag said to Irina, "The restaurant is going to start its operation soon. Everyone will be busy. If you are tired, go upstairs for a rest first. We'll talk about our matters after that."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'm not tired. I'll just watch from the side. Perhaps, I could even help a little." Irina sat down on the chair behind the counter and smilingly said, "This is my first time being the lady boss. I need time to get used to it."
"That's good too." Mag glanced at her before going to the restaurant's door.
Outside of the restaurant, the customers were still talking about the beautiful elf who just went in.
From the limited information, everyone had basically identified her as Amy's birth mother, who was also Boss Mag's wife.
As for why she had never appeared in the restaurant before and sounded so unfamiliar when she knocked on the door, there were many versions regarding that.
For example: The beautiful lady boss dumped the useless Boss Mag and her newborn daughter back then and ran away with another man; Boss Mag had cheated on the beautiful lady boss and ran away with his wife's younger sister…
Krassu and Urien, who were standing at the front, were talking to each other telepathically now.
"Who do you think she looks like?"
"Do you think that she looks like her too?"
"Even though her looks and figure are different, there aren't many 10th-tier elves in this world. And, Irina is the only one that is so young in the past 100 years. It's hard to not think about her."
"I have always wondered who is the mother of Amy, who is such a genius magic caster. Looking at the situation now, we have never thought of her before."
"If it's her, then Boss Mag is…"
"Boss Mag always closes the restaurant at a very timely manner… For example, whenever there was a huge event."
The two of them looked at each other with a thoughtful expression.
If there were so many coincidences, the answer naturally emerged..
"So, that's why Little Amy learned close combat magic so easily," Krassu said thoughtfully.
