From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100 

Sure. Anthea nodded with a smile, “Just give me a second.” 

Just then, a young couple walked in, “Excuse me, is this Yeager’s Delicacies?” 

That’s us!” Anthea quickly headed over to greet them, guiding them to a table before serving up a complimentary slice of cheesecake. 

Carole was absolutely stunned. It wasn’t until the couple had ordered their meals that she pulled Anthea aside and asked, “Ann, what’s going on here?” 

Anthea chuckled and filled her in. 

It turned out Anthea had listed the restaurant on a popular foodie app three days prior and set up a time–limited promotional event. 

Worried about not getting enough traffic, Anthea even crafted a script to ramp up the marketing. 

And thus, the customers started rolling in. 

After all, it was the digital age. Sticking to the old ways just wasn’t going to cut it. 

You had to keep pace with the times. 

Otherwise, Anthea wouldn’t have been brimming with confidence. 

Carole nodded in understanding, “I see.” Anthea was so savvy! If it had been up to Carole, they’d probably be at a loss! 

Just then, new customers walked in, and Anthea said, “Mom, you better get back to the kitchen. That table over there ordered our roasted rabbits. I’ll handle the front!” 

“Alright.” Carole nodded and hurried off to the kitchen. 

In less than half an hour, what was once an empty restaurant was now filled to half 

capacity. 

The air was thick with the aroma of delicious food, making mouths water. 

The first customer, a young woman with a pixie cut, was so delighted with her meal that she packed ten servings of roasted rabbit to go, “Miss, your food is divine! Especially the roasted rabbits! I’ve got to bring my folks here next time.” 

“Thank you.” Anthea smiled gently, “Next time you come in, I’ll give you a discount. Here’s our exclusive loyalty card!” 

“Oh my gosh! Thank you!” The pixie–cut girl beamed as she took the card. 

Before leaving, she snapped a photo of the restaurant and posted it online with the caption, “Yeager’s Delicacies in Cloudcrest is just too delicious! Best in town! If you’re

near Arcadia Avenue, don’t miss out. 

As lunchtime peaked, the restaurant got even busier. 

Seeing the place bustling, Carole was filled with energy and didn’t feel the least bit tired. 

It wasn’t until 2 p.m., when the lunch crowd thinned, that Carole and Anthea finally got a chance to eat. Carole whipped up two plates of spaghetti. 

Serving one plate to Anthea, who was engrossed in her phone at the cash register, Carole said, “Ann, time to eat.” 

“Oh, thanks.” Anthea took the plate and continued to multitask, eating while she checked her phone.
