Chapter 216 - 216: I Believe What You Said

But first, he had to confirm the identity of the man. If he kissed up to the wrong person, he would be embarrassed.

He walked out of the office, came to the hallway, smiled, and said to the waiting actors, "Hello, everyone. I'm Mathew, the manager of the Tuncel Advertising Agency. I'll be in charge of the audition. Thanks for your precious time. Now I'll explain to you the process of the audition…"

These were supposed to be announced by the staff, but to make sure whether the successor was here or not, he did it himself.

As he explained the process, he searched in the crowd. Soon, he spotted Albert eating a cake.

Next to him, there was a girl who was handing him a towel. The girl was very cute and smiled so sweet that her smile made people's hearts soft.

When Mathew confirmed that that man was Albert, he got nervous. He hurried to his office and talked about it with the secretary.

"What should I do? He did come. If I make anything wrong, I may lose my job."

In all his years as a secretary, he had never seen such a spectacle. The Pearson Group had too many companies, and senior managers usually would not notice an advertising company like this. So, why did the successor come? What was his purpose? Work inspection? Definitely not. Even if their company went bankrupt, he would not bother to check.

Something occurred to him, "Is it for the girl next to him?"

Mathew slapped his thigh and shouted, "I knew it. I knew he wouldn't come here for no reason. Is he trying to make the girl famous? We have to do what he wants. Actually, the girl is quite cute. Even if she had no relationship with him, I want to choose her."

The secretary frowned, "But she didn't take the number card. She said she came for Louie. I know this girl. She's Sophia, an online celebrity. She has lots of fans. It's a bit of a hassle!"

Louie's number was at the back. When the audition started, Sophia calculated the time Louie would audit according to the time each interviewee used, and it would be hours until his turn.

There was a break at noon. Since Louie couldn't audit in the morning, Sophia suggested to take a break somewhere, have lunch, and come back in the afternoon.

Louie agreed and left with the other two. It was eleven o'clock, almost time for lunch.

It was quite cold in Haven. Louie suggested eating hot pot, and it would be warmer.

Sophia agreed. Albert didn't object. There was a restaurant near the Tuncel Advertising Agency. It was Triple Sheep, one of the popular chain restaurants.

"It's warmer to eat mutton hot pot in winter. How about one mutton hot pot?" Louie asked, "If you don't like mutton, they have clear soup."

Sophia knew he was good at eating and cooking. Since he said that, she agreed. Albert was not picky, and he was used to submitting to Sophia's demands.

There were many customers in the restaurant. Louie wanted a private room so that Sophia could eat comfortably without being disturbed. However, the waiter said that the private room was full, and only the hall was available.

Sophia didn't mind it. Albert didn't say anything. So they just sat down at an empty table.

Soon, the mutton hot pot was served. The smell of mutton was very appetizing. And there were many large pieces of mutton in the soup.

Louie picked up the colander and filled Sophia's bowl with a spoonful of lamb. "Try some lamb first, sister. After the mutton, we can put the vegetables in, or there's no room for them."

Sophia nodded, picked up a piece of meat, and began to eat. Albert reached for the colander and added another scoop of lamb to Sophia's bowl.

The bowl was not large, and there were so many foods that the lamb almost fell out.

"Help with yourself," Sophia picked up a meal and put it in Albert's bowl, "My bowl is full."

"Yeah." Albert smiled.

Louie was speechless. Were they showing off how much they love each other? He lowered his head and started to eat.

After one bite, Louie shouted, "This is not mutton!"

Sophia stayed, "Not mutton?"

Louie nodded, "It tastes like mutton, but it's pork! The quality of mutton and pork is different. There is a difference in careful taste."

Sophia's taste was not so sensitive that she took it as mutton when she smelled the smell of mutton in the meat. But she believed Louie's judgment. With his study on food, it would not be wrong.

She called the manager and asked, "It's not mutton. How could you pass off pork as mutton?"

The hall was crowded with guests, most of whom were eating mutton hot pot. Hearing this, they looked in her direction. A few guests left their seats and came to watch.

The manager would not admit it. "It's indeed mutton. Smell it. It's mutton! Our mutton is supplied by a specific mutton dealer. They have been serving us for many years. How could it be pork?"

Louie said, "I've heard that pork soaked in mutton or sheep's oil … urine can smell like mutton. It's pork. You can test it. I won't be wrong!"

The onlookers could not help feeling nauseous when they heard the word "sheep's urine." If the meat they just ate was soaked in sheep's urine, it would be disgusting.

The manager shouted, "Stop your nonsense! Are you here to ruin my business? Listen, we have a lawyer. You are legally responsible for telling rumors like this."

While they were arguing, Sophia stood up. She picked up a piece of bone and looked at it carefully. "He's not wronging you. This is indeed a pig's bone. It's not the same as a sheep's."

As soon as she spoke, one of the guests recognized her. "You're… Sophia, the high achiever online? I love you! I believe what you said. Tell me, why is this bone not a sheep bone?"

Sophia didn't expect to meet one fan here and smiled at him. "Not everything I say is right.. But some differences between pig bones and sheep bones are quite obvious.
